    Default Affiliate Link

    When I come to my site from an affiliate link or for the first time I end up on skin 1 even though the site defualt is skin 10.

    Has anyone any idea what I'm doing wrong?

    Thanks

    Do you see from the url if the link includes querystring ?skinid=1? You can also check it in Products -> Manage Affiliates, select that particular affiliate and see what's the value in "Default Skin" field.

    SkinID was set to 0, I have updated this but it's still the same (I cleared cookie + cash etc etc).

    Let me know, thanks

    what's your appconfig: HomeTemplate set to? Are you using template switching? What's your appconfig: DefaultSkinID set to?

    If you've got a separate hometemplate specified, that'll override the Affiliate skin. You should link your affiliates to a landing page other than default.aspx.

    I take it there is no way to make the home template use a certain skin id?

    I could just rename the Skin_10 folder to Skin_01

    The home template is always going to come from the site's default skin.
