It is better to ask separate questions in separate
email topics. That helps our mailing list turn
into a knowledge library that people can search
and find previous answers.

There is a bug listed in the issue tracker about that.
The W3C compliance logos are in the same category.
These are only shown on pages that are called "index.html".

However, if you switch this off completely, as shown in
skinconf.xml then the whole trail part will not be used.
location="none" ... works for some skins.

That extra ">" is a bug. See main/webapp/skins/common/xslt/html/site2xhtml.xsl
and search "breadcrumb".

Did you also set a "pattern" attribute to match
certain pages. Yes we know that the example needs
to be improved. Someone suggested that on the dev
list yesterday.

The new "views" functionality being prepared in the
trunk "0.8-dev" would enable that. Otherwise you would
need to modify one of the existing skins, which would
propbably be a lot of work.

Please do not use automated footers when sending to
and opensource mailing list. It is definitely not private.
Who is the "intended recipient"?

How to questions

2005-08-26 Thread Qin Ding

1. The initial navigation menu on the
left side has a img "build-with-forrest-button".  In the
samples tab, there is no such img.  Is there a way that I can put
the project logo to replace that img, not just in the initial home tab
menu but all tab menus?  How do I make that happen?

2. How can disable the trail on the
very top of each page?  I commented out the trail element in skinconf.xml,
or leave both name and href attributes empty, I still get ">"
character shown in the trail area.

3. How do I make motd work?  I
uncommented that section, there is no effect.

4. How do I config skin(s) to make the
site display three columns with left a navagation menu, middle and right
dispaly contents and news and events?

Thanks.
