Brian Dukesanswered the question run custom code before installing a module and after uninstalling a module

For this scenario, it may be simpler to implement your changes as SQL scripts. You can have many SQL script elements in your DNN manifest, which run on install, as well as specifying one to run on uninstall. In terms of running code, you can impleme ...

Brian Dukesanswered the question DNN 8 Default.css API

I'm not aware of any existing documentation, but based on some experimentation, it appears that you can use a DnnCssInclude control to override default.css , or a DnnCssExclude control to remove it completely. I have examples in a gist . Resources c ...

Brian Dukesanswered the question DNN 7 Add an Existing Module

DNN is not setup to allow you to add two references to the same module on one page, so that's an attempt to avoid offering an option that isn't available.  As far as I know, that limitation is purely technical, I'm not aware of a non-technical reason ...

One of the benefits that DNN has over other CMS platforms is the "inline" editing experience, where you get to the editor for content by going to that content live on the site. This makes it really easy to see how each bit of content on your …

Brian Dukesanswered the question DNN Module Development and Visual Studio Online Source Control

In TFS, I would have a path like $/Client/Website/DesktopModules/Client/MyModule1 , and then I branch, it would be from $/Client/Website (e.g. $/Client/Website-AddingHelloWorld ).  In your case, it looks like you're tagging a release, and you may wan ...

That blog post was about an experiment in seeing if MVC components could run in DNN, but there was never a release which supported that.  However, the next major version of DNN (version 8) will include support for MVC modules (see http://www.dnnsoftw ...

Erik Hindsvoted on Allow Packages to Contain Multiple Modules

In a manifest for a module, there is a package element, which contains components, one of which will be a module. However, DNN doesn't support having multiple module components within a single package. As a result, if an extension wants to instal ...

Brian Dukescreated the topic: Code Freeze

I understand that we're currently in the code freeze timeframe for 7.3.3.  Does that mean that the development branch is frozen, or is that work being done on a separate branch?  Do pull requests need to be frozen (if so, can we change &hel ...

Brian Dukesanswered the question Can DNNUrlManagement Module or other module convert a more human Greek URL page representation

In order to have Greek characters in your URL, those will need to be encoded.  Exactly how those encoded characters appear is somewhat browser-specific.  For example, if I go to http://intelibrain.gr/el-gr/Προιόντα in Internet Explorer and grab the ...

That is expected, the admin pages belong to the site and are part of its structure.  Is there a problem that you're trying to solve with those pages, or is it just unexpected that they're showing up in Page Management?  Note that they will ...

Brian Dukesanswered the question How to Change Module Setting for Is Searchable to True (DNN 7.2.2)

The module itself has to indicate to DNN that it is searchable.  There isn't a way for you to turn on searchability for a module as an administrator, because the module could store its data anywhere.  Searchability means that the module has ...

I think there are bits and pieces of #1 & #5 from your suggestions in Community Voice (dnnsoftware.com/voice), but it's probably good to add the others in there, too, so they can be kept track of somewhere…
