Do you see the rest of the skin on those other webs? If not, did you set the global skin settings in Main.SitePreferences?

I assume you are using FoswikiSiteSkin. The file templates/viewtopbar.foswikisite.tmpl has defined:

%TMPL:INCLUDE{"viewtopbar"}%
%TMPL:INCLUDE{"%SYSTEMWEB%.FoswikiSiteSkinNavigation"}%

This includes the template file data/System/FoswikiSiteSkinNavigationTemplate.txt.

Do you have this file (still) at that location?

cant u please check where or what I am doing wrong ......

there are my /viewtopbar.foswikisite.tmpl

%TMPL:INCLUDE{"viewtopbar"}%
%TMPL:INCLUDE{"%SYSTEMWEB%.FoswikiSiteSkinNavigation"}% %{ loads System.FoswikiSiteSkinNavigationTemplate }%<br /><br />TMPL:DEF{"topbar"}%&lt;div id="patternTopBar"&gt;&lt;div id="patternTopBarContentsWrapper"&gt;&lt;div id="patternTopBarContents"&gt;%IF{"istopic '%SYSTEMWEB%.WebTopBar'" then="$percntINCLUDE{$quot%SYSTEMWEB%.WebTopBar$quot}$percnt" else="$percntINCLUDE{$quot%SYSTEMWEB%.WebTopBarExample$quot}$percnt"}%&lt;/div&gt;&lt;!--/patternTopBarContents--&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;!--/patternTopBarContentsWrapper--&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;!-- /patternTopBar--&gt;%TMPL:END%

these are my SitePreferences http://192.168.3.77:81/bin/view/Main/SitePreferences

   * #Set SKIN = foswikisite,pattern
   
   * Global skin styles. To change the look of the site, point these variables to custom CSS attachments.
      * #Set FOSWIKI_LAYOUT_URL = /pub/System/FoswikiSiteSkin/layout.css
      * #Set FOSWIKI_STYLE_URL = /pub/System/FoswikiSiteSkin/style.css
      * #Set FOSWIKI_COLORS_URL = /pub/System/FoswikiSiteSkin/colors.css

   * Overriding styles that add upon the global and theme styles. Enabled by default but empty to prevent browsers from fetching %<nop>USERLAYOUTURL%-style URLs.
      * #Set USERLAYOUTURL =

      * #Set USERCOLORSURL = 
      * #Set WEBHEADERART = 
      * #Set WEBHEADERBGCOLOR = 
      * #Set PATTERNSKIN_THEME = 
      * #Set PATTERNSKIN_COLUMNS =

The template text is garbled because of the wysiwyg, but otherwise it looks ok. Try with an explicit "System"

%TMPL:INCLUDE{"System.FoswikiSiteSkinNavigation"}%

or leave out the web:

%TMPL:INCLUDE{"FoswikiSiteSkinNavigation"}%

to see if that makes any difference.

hi again

still not working .... i tried very thing that i can find .... is there any other changes that i need to make in wysiwyg? or any other files.

-- KamalDhindsa- 27 Jul 2011

You should not make changes to wysiwyg, it is that using the WYWIWYG editor the TML code gets garbled. Better to use "Edit wiki text".

Without access to your system I cannot tell what could be wrong with your setup.

Alternatively you can try Pattern Skin and use the Fatwilly theme to get the same skin layout.

Closing this unanswered. The old FoswikiSiteSkin is no longer supported.
