In this tutorial we demonstrate how to use Skin Object Tokens in DotNetNuke v5 and above. Skin Object tokens are a new skinning method introduced in DotNetNuke 5 for adding tokens into a DotNetNuke skin.

A Skin Object Token is a web user control, it covers skin elements such as the logo, menu, search, login links, date, copyright, languages, links, banners, privacy, terms of use etc.

This new Object token method has been introduced into DotNetNuke with the idea of making it simpler to add a skin object into a DotNetNuke skin.
