Installing DotNetNuke 4.8.2 on a Remote Host

Mon, 08 Sep 2008 11:02:44 GMT

In previous articles on this site I have provided tutorials for installing DotNetNuke to a local machine, however, I typically avoid the topic of installing DotNetNuke to a remote web hosting provider. I have been asked many times why and the answer is simple; installations to remote hosts are not standardized, depending on the hosting providers environments the steps to install can differ greatly. However, due to popular demand I have created this tutorial which will provide you the basic overview of how to perform a clean installation of DotNetNuke on a remote web hosting provider. In the article I will try to point out the most common differences between different hosting providers, I will also be providing specific examples regarding the use of the Plesk control panel which is what my hosting provider (3Essentials) uses.

Solving the Search Results problem when using the free MMLinks localiz

Fri, 14 Mar 2008 11:12:30 GMT

With the free MMLinks DotNetNuke module, you can replace your standard Text/HTML modules with fully localizable ones, localizing both the title and the Text/HTML part. With one slight defect: Since DotNetNuke's search indexer doesn't know anything about the localized titles, it insists on presenting the default, non-localized module title in the Search Results page (that would be "MMLinks" if you leave it intact).

Integrating the Lightbox JS 2.03.3 image overlay script with DNN

Fri, 14 Mar 2008 11:07:58 GMT

According to its creators, "Lightbox is a simple, unobtrusive script used to overlay images on the current page. It's a snap to setup and works on all modern browsers." And it really does what they say. So, why not use it with DNN? The fact that it can also work with groups of pictures providing basic back/forward navigation functionality makes it ideal as a lightweight picture gallery. Of course, it can be used with single pictures too, eliminating popup windows in order to see a picture, complete with (optional) caption, at a larger size.

Getting locked out of DNN's login page

Wed, 26 Sep 2007 09:41:53 GMT

One common accident while developing DNN portals is to change DNN's default login page through the Site Settings page. This is ok, as long as the new page you set contains a user login module. But if the new page does not, you usually get "locked out" of DNN, not being able to login since there is no way to get to the login page again.

EntitySpaces to Support CodeSmith

Thu, 07 Jun 2007 23:46:01 GMT

EntitySpaces 2008 will greatly expand the reach of the EntitySpaces Architecture for the Microsoft .NET Framework by supporting both MyGeneration and CodeSmith. Our decision to support CodeSmith by no means indicates we are abandoning MyGeneration. MyGeneration will continue to be supported by EntitySpaces. We understand code generator loyalty, and we love MyGeneration. But, CodeSmith has its fervent followers, too. EntitySpaces 2008 will open up a new market for EntitySpaces and will give current EntitySpaces users a choice of generator. As of EntitySpaces 2008, the EntitySpaces Architecture will be a very viable choice for the CodeSmith Community. Supporting CodeSmith will have the added advantage of allowing users to generate their EntitySpaces architecture(s) from within Visual Studio 2005 via CodeSmith's Microsoft Visual Studio 2005 integration. Supporting both MyGeneration and CodeSmith, as this post will outline, can be accomplished quite elegantly, and even allow for greater customization by the EntitySpaces Team.

Wed, 30 May 2007 00:31:01 GMT

The EntitySpaces 2007 (ES2007) Architecture for the Microsoft .NET Framework was released to production on May 28th, 2007. The EntitySpaces team would like to thank both our customers and those evaluating EntitySpaces for working hand in hand with us on the ES2007 release. The first ES2007 beta was posted on March 4th and thus began the customer feedback / defect reporting cycle with new versions following quickly as advancements were made. You have truly helped us to make EntitySpaces 2007 a very solid offering for those developing for the Microsoft .NET Framework. We are particularly pleased with some of the mobile development that is beginning to take root. We strive hard through our forums to hear you and allow you to shape the architecture you have invested in. We also work very hard to provide high quality support on our forums and to make ourselves available to our customers. ES2007 is a major advancement over it's predecessor (1.5.3) released on December 30th, 2006, these are just some of the new features.
