Hi,

I wonder if anyone can help me as I've tried to obtain help from the
Xwiki Users list but didn't work?

After an upgrade from my old version of Xwiki which was 2.x (I think I
built it in 2010) to 3.1.1 I ended up seeing this as my admin panel:

In comparison with my old Xwiki instance this doesn't look right.

Looks like you have a custom skin based on Toucan. Well, in the meantime the Toucan CSS has changed a bit, you should integrate those changes back into your skin.

Generally, it's a bad idea to copy and modify the base skin, you should include it from your CSS and override the things you want changed. This way it will be easier to upgrade.



Ok just setup a test instace using an un-modified version of Xwiki war file and looks good so far!


The only problem I'm having now is knowing what to do in order to customize the skin....

Using this guide:

http://platform.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/DevGuide/Skins


I was able to find out that some of the image files I was using are here:


xwiki-enterprise-web-3.1.1/bin/view/XWiki/DefaultSkin#Attachments


Now the question remains; if not edit the DefaultSkin property then how using either the Admin interface or other do I copy the Toucan skin into a new skin or just add extra 'properties'??? - sorry this part is really confusing for me!


Like I have already 'wrongly' done, how do I change the background and logo properties for EVERY document in my wiki and not affect the DefaultSkin.



Regards,


Kaya
