It is likely that a bug that was subsequently corrected remains open in the incorrectly-uploaded release. I have uploaded the correct alpha-release package; this version includes the several demonstration templates (along with whatever enhancements and bug fixes took place between the packaging of the two versions). Those that have installed the incorrect release should uninstall that version, and then reinstall the corrected one. Note that the modified MinimalExtropy skin will break until the updated provider is installed; ensure that no admin skins are using this skin (otherwise the site might become inaccessible). Thanks to Ely for pointing out this oversight! This continues to be an alpha release that should only be utilized on a non-production basis. It has not yet been evaluated with the DotNetNuke 5.1 release.

It is a realy nice menu ! I have troubles with making a new Template and CSS file. I copy the DefaultTemplate, rename it and put it in Providers/NavigationProviders/DNNTemplatedMenuNavigationProvider. So i have 2 new files there: for example newmenuskin.ascx / newmenuskin.css I load them via If i change the CSS file it won't do anything. I want to create the same example as your WIDE version. Is this possible in this release ? The WIDE template is not there. One more thing: A 3rd level in the menu is not available ? Or do i just have to put in the css ? Thank you very much. Hi Brandon,

I have troubles with making a new Template and CSS file.
I copy the DefaultTemplate, rename it and put it in Providers/NavigationProviders/DNNTemplatedMenuNavigationProvider.
So i have 2 new files there: for example newmenuskin.ascx / newmenuskin.css

If i change the CSS file it won’t do anything.
I want to create the same example as your WIDE version.

Is this possible in this release ?
The WIDE template is not there.

One more thing: A 3rd level in the menu is not available ? Or do i just have to put in the css ?

Thank you very much.
