Adammer releases Greytness 2.0
About Greytness
As its name suggests, Greytness is a single color grey skin with 2 Themes (Standard and Winter). It includes 24 containers which can be arranged with great flexibility in its 21 panes. Greytness is written in valid XHTML 1.0 Transitional, valid CSS 3 code, and does not contain any tables.
Version 2.0 of the Greytness skin is an upgrade for DNN 4 users and a completely new skin for DNN 5 users. We rewrote the DNN 5 skin manifest to support future DNN 5 skinning features.
New Winter Theme
In keeping with the sleek style of Greytness, we have created a new Winter Theme that is subtle and clean and should add some winter cheer to your DNN site.
Change log
- Added New Winter Theme
- Added 6 New Containers

I have install Greytness 2.0 .I find it’s very clean and the pages load very fast and I like it very much.But when I change the default language ,I find the language of the menu don’t changed .It is still English. Maybe there are some minor bugs in Adammer.DNN.NavMenu.
My English is very poor.I do not even know I have described the things clear.Thank you
Hi Miao,
The Adammer.DNN.NavMenu module is compatible with Apollo PageLocalization 5.0 for use with DNN 5 and Apollo PageLocalization 3.0 for DNN 4.
Great skin and thanks for providing it! Is there a secret to getting the snow to fall when using the winter theme?
Thanks,
Ed
@ed,
No secret. The snow flakes are not part of the Greytness skin. You can download the JavaScript file that creates the snowflakes here.
We’re using Gumbosoft’s Script Injector to load the JavaScript file. But you can use whatever technique you desire to load the JavaScript file and “Let it Snow”.
Let me know if you have any additional questions or need anything else.

@Phantom Lady,
You need to install the required menu module (Adammer.DNN.NavMenu_4.0_PA_Install.zip).
When you unzip the Greytness_02.03.00_Download.zip file, you will find it in a folder named “Required Menu Module” in the “Skin and Required Module” folder.
Instructions for installing can be found in the README.txt file.
Site was working great. The skin looked great and the site was running for months now. That is until today. Out of the blue I got error message. I was able to get it to show me the error and this is pretty much whats up.

@Tommy,/bin/ directory has the proper permissions. Most important would be read access for IIS_IUSRS. Let me know what you find.
Most likely the file permissions have changed on your server for the dll file (the file that contains the code for the menu). Check to make sure the Adammer.DNN.NavMenu.dll file in the
Could you please tell me way to show page title in nav menu, not page name.
Thanks you so much !
Hi @duykhuong,
The menu module is coded to display the Page Name not the Page Title. This is consistent behavior for DNN. Page Name is used in the menu / URI and Page Title is used in the HTML <title> tag.
