Hello,

I have a problem with a small Forrest site:  Forrest does not include
the credit buttons in the footer of the static HTML page when the page
is 3 levels below the site root in the directory tree.

Any ideas?

This is by design.

It's not actually about how many levels there are. Credits are only displayed on "index.html" pages, regardless of their depth in the document tree.

Ideally this should be customisable in skinconf.xml.

Take a look in FORREST_HOME/main\webapp\skins\pelt\xslt\html\site-to-xhtml.xsl (that's SVN head, if you are on 0.7 it is the same path but site2xhtml.xsl) and search for

<xsl:if test="$filename = 'index.html' and $config/credits">

If you are willing to make this customisable we'd welcome a patch. For a method of doing this customisation search the same file for

<xsl:if test="$config/motd">

which uses a pattern defined in sinconf to decide when the MOTD should be displayed.

We'd also welcome a patch to our docs at http://forrest.apache.org/docs_0_70/your-project.html to make this clearer.
