login page is getting the wrong skin, why, how to fix it?? 
Modified By tlyczko  on 3/7/2008 10:43:41 AM)

I have two skins for my site.

One is a 3-pane layout (left, content, right) just for the home page, index.ascx.

The other is a 2-pane layout (left, content)  for all other pages, index_2col.ascx.

When I click the 'Login' link, created using the [LOGIN] token, I get a Login page which is skinned like the home page.

I used an ascx skin and then skinned the home page with index.ascx....but I don't want any pages other than the home page with three panes.

What causes my problem and how can I fix it??

I'm on DNN 4.8.1 (localhost), and I have found login.ascx in several places, but this appears to be a core file which I realize should not be modified.

This 'wrong skin' also happens on a DNN 4.7.0 test site.

Should I make a new, separate user login page and not use the Login token??

Thank you, Tom

Don't know if this will correct the issue, but try applying the 2-pane layout as the default for your site then manually change the 'Home' tab/page to use the 3 pane layout.
Alternately you could create a separate 'login' page and apply the skin you want to it then change your site settings to use that page for login.
Using the [LOGIN] token only puts a link to the 'log in' page on the skin. It does not affect the skin applied when you get to that page.

I already have my site set up this way, with 2-pane as the default and using 3-pane for the home page.

I guess I have to create a new 'login' page, then, and figure out where/how to change the site settings for the login.

I can readily uncomment the login token from the skin....

Thank you, Tom
