Ok here it is,
I don't understand this, do you have two communities in database or yust one?
If you have one do this, if not go to STEP 2.
STEP 1:
First of all, create another community in your database.
That should be your local community (on your comp.)
Set values like this:
Community Name: goCMSLocal (can enter something else, as long as it is different from 1. community)
Primary Domain: localhost
Community Domain: *
Community Subdomain: *
Other values don't matter.
STEP 2:
Concerning problem with you bg images - you can't point to images in database from .css file.
Css file always search for files in file system or url, but not from database.
If you set this declaration in css:
background-image: url(background.jpg)
then file background.jpg from file system will be used, an you can't do anything about it.
Only solution is to place file background.jpg in directory where your css file is located (or somwhere else, but you must point to that file in css declaration).
STEP 3:
body tag of ALL files in CSK is created dinamicaly from code files.
That line of code is located in 'communityDefault' class.
File is named 'communityDefault.aspx' or 'communityDefault.aspx.vb' and is located in root of your CSK.
Search for this line:
objBuilder.Append(vbLf + "</head>" + vbLf + "<body marginheight=""0"" marginwidth=""0"" leftmargin=""0"" rightmargin=""0"" class=""pageBody"">" + vbLf)
pageBody is css class and it is not declared anywhere in CSK, you must enter it manualy in css file. Try to enter something like this in css file that your community uses and you will see what i'm talking about:
..pageBody
{
background-color: Red;
}
Hope that helps.
