It is possible that the master page for those is hard coded rather than using the based approach that is the standard means of using the system set masterpage.
Have you looked at what the raw html for that front page is using for the masterpage?

The other pages are using the new master page. Hmmm... maybe there is some special code to set the master page properly for meeting workspaces? ________________________________ From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Caroline Specker (AU) [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Wednesday, 14 May 2008 1:30 PM To: [email protected] Subject: [OzMOSS] Branding Meeting workspaces I am having a strange problem when branding meeting workspaces. I am using WSS 3.0. I have successfully branded all the team sites by creating a new master page and using feature stapling to attach it to the various site templates. I have also added a master page picker feature as well to allow users to change the master page on existing sites from default.master to the new one. I have noticed that meeting workspaces use MWSdefault.master, so I created a new master page for meeting workspaces by copying and renaming MWSdefault.master and adding a few images to the top. I have also added a master page picker feature as well to allow users to change the master page on existing sites to the new one (it is not oob functionality in WSS). Anyway, when I change the meeting workspace to use my new master page the following happens: - it DOES NOT work on the home page (ie .../default.aspx) of the meeting workspace. I have looked at the source and it is not using the new master page. I don't know what master page it is using. - it DOES work on the other pages in the workspace such as lists (eg ..../Lists/Agenda/AllItems.aspx). Is there something I am missing here? Does anyone know what is special about the meeting workspace pages that doesn't seem to allow my custom master page to be applied to certain bits of it? I am changing the master page using a custom master page picker that uses the following code: webRef.MasterUrl = webPathMasterUrl + "_catalogs/masterpage/" + this.MasterPageList.SelectedValue; webRef.Update(); Cheers, Caroline ************************************************************************ ****** - NOTICE FROM DIMENSION DATA AUSTRALIA This message is confidential, and may contain proprietary or legally privileged information.
