I was brought in to work on an asp.net web site recently that had been written by another company.  I was asked to add some features to their current site as well as to fix some bugs that had been left by the previous developers.  Once I had the site ready I moved this web site project to my staging server and then started receiving this error on a couple of pages.  Now I had chosen to publish the website instead of just doing a copy of the site with the code-behind files as well.  This is when this...

One of the big complaints that I have seen over the years with DotNetNuke has been the horrible URL’s that get produced by the framework.  This is a problem that is part of most dynamically created content on the web, not only DotNetNuke.

For the successful Content Management Systems, they have come up with ways to make these ugly URL’s more human friendly.  DNN did this back in about version 3.0 with the introduction of Friendly...

Paul Scarlett of tressleworks.ca has created a Visual Basic Script to re-package DNN 4.0 skins into the new format for DNN 5.0.

He makes mention of requiring the following library to be installed on your system: XStandard XZip library.

While working on one of my modules I had a request to be able to sort the items in my DataList alphabetically. This seemed to be a trivial thing as far as I was concerned so off I went.  I was using a DataTable to bind to the DataList control for viewing the links I was building.  So with a quick search on Google I came up with some sample code to give me the basics of what I wanted to accomplish.  So in the following I will present both a C# and VB version of the code for anyone to use in their applications.

I figured since I have been blogging about DNN heavily that I should be  including a resource page for finding out things about DNN.  So I have started adding some pages which will store all things DotNetNuke.  My first page to add within this structure will be the inclusion of a page of free DNN Modules.  As I review them or use them on sites I will also provide some reviews of what I think of these modules.

On Monday, AjaxDataControls 1.0 was released. This library was developed to work with ASP.NET Ajax Extension. This project's main goal was to develop some rich data controls, to allow replacement of the core ASP.NET controls and provide client-side...

While getting started with a new project and hopefully successful business venture.  One of the first things I did was to install the latest version of DotNetNuke 4.8.0.  The install went flawless as usual with DNN.  One of the things I love of the newer releases of DNN was the ability to test at each stage of the install.

During the initial install of DNN it checks to see if the database is at the same version as the DotNetNuke...
