I have created a skin for DotNetNuke 5.x and I attempted to do as much of the layout using css as I could. My issue is the consistency between IE and FF/Chrome/Safari. With most sites I'm able to overcome this, but in this skin I have tried everything I could think of and spent many many hours trying to get the look consistent between ...
Hi, I've created a module for my website and when a button is clicked, it calls a VB sub on the server. I need this sub to retrieve the values that were filled in on the form, but the things I need to retrieve values from are not asp controls, they are simple <input> and <select> tags. How can I retrieve values from input on a .aspx p...
Here's my situation. I have a DotNetNuke application. I want to link to an existing ASP.net website from within the DNN website, and have decided to use DNN's IFrame for that. The existing ASP.net application uses Forms Authentication for security - only authorized users can access the pages. This asp.net application also requires...
Hello, I am creating a customer DotNetNuke(DNN) skin - and one of the things I'd like to do is have sub-menu groupings. For example: LIFE __LIVING IN WIDGETVILLE__ GETTING AROUND HOUSE PRICES SCHOOL INFORMATION Where: LIFE is the main menu item LIVING IN WIDGETVILLE is just a description or group for the sub-menu items. I cou...
Is there a class that overwrites the .MainMenu_MenuItem class for the Main Menu? I try to change the font-size and color of the Topmost parent of the Main Menu(includes Admin,Host links) and they won't change. I can change the background color. What am I doing wrong? ...
Hello, I want to group menu items in DNN menu into their own Divs - so I can have bottom padding on each cell in the heirarchy. So for example: I have main menu item of "About" - underneath that I have "About our Offices" - then under that I have "About our Server Room". This isn't the exact useage, just an example of the heirarchy. ...
Hi. I'm an experienced developer, but new to DotNetNuke. I've created a skin which uses solpartmenu. On a portal that uses submenus, I'm getting different behavior in different browsers: On IE and Firefox, the submenus drop down just below the parent items, as I would expect. However on Safari and Chrome, the appear on the far left of t...
I am trying to deploy a web application built with Dotnetnuke. There is an DNN Control/ASCX having a MultiView and few AjaxToolkit Controls like AutoComplete, ModalPopup. In Views other (plain) ASCXs are included and some of which have UpdatePanel. On the developer machine (WinXp / ASP.NET Web Server) there is no error...but when I try ...
Hello, Am working with a DotNetNuke(DNN) site and for some reason, the DNN:NAV control only displays the menu when I am logged in. The menu is part of the template file itself, which in this case is 'index.ascx' Any way for me to troubleshoot the visibility of the menu? Why wouldn't it be showing up? Everything else on the page is. ...
I have a legacy DNN site, and an error shows up at the top of the page telling me that one of the modules failed to load. That's wonderful, but that doesn't tell me a damned thing about why the module didn't load. Does anyone unfortunate enough to work with DotNetNuke know how to view a stack trace when a module explodes? I keep looki...
I'm trying to create a modal popup login control for dnn using the ModalPopupExtender in the AjaxToolkit. An issue that I'm running into is that when I click the "Login" button on the popup login form, if the login fails for some reason or if the user needs to update some information before moving on, the modal popup is cleared and the u...
I am interested if anyone has experience using DotNetNuke authorization in CSLA. I would like to be able to use my DotNetNuke roles to be able to assign permissions to my CSLA objects and properties. If I just reference the DNN assemblies won't that create an unwanted dependency in my CSLA business objects? Would it be easier to build...
Hi, I'm having troubles finding where I can put code-behind for my dnn pages. For example: MyPage.ascx already has <%@ Control language="vb" CodeBehind="~/admin/Skins/skin.vb" AutoEventWireup="false" Explicit="True" Inherits="DotNetNuke.UI.Skins.Skin" %> which it needs in order to be cast to a skin. However, I want to be able to a...
Hi, I'm having a problem with the module Dynamic Registration for DNN. The module is set up with form completion events in such a way that a user gets redirected to paypal and on completion of payment a user gets created and an email is sent out. I also have it set up so that an email gets sent out on completion of payment, just to te...
I'm working in a DNN environment where the default style sheet which every site loads sets styles for pseudo-classes. I could edit the default style sheet, but since this is stock and comes with all upgrades, I'd prefer to leave it alone and override their styles at the skin level. Does anyone know of a solution to get all these pseudo ...
Where can I find the function that handles the login for DNN? I would like to add custom features to the login and I don't see the function in Login.ascx.vb (unless I missed it). There is a tag and a tag that forms the login. I figure one of these has the actual "Login" button, but I cannot seem to figure out where they're coming fro...
I'm trying to figure out where the login functionality is that interacts with the UserLogin function of the AspNetMembershipProvider section, there's no references to where the login functionality exists. I know this is the function to intact with the data, I just need to find where in the source code the login is so I can customize the ...
Hi, This might be a general question, but I can't seem to figure it out. What are containers in DNN? Skins are essentially a layout plus a colour scheme for the whole portal. So are containers the skin for desktopmodules? Sorry if this question is novice. I am not confident in DNN yet, and am reading the doco. However i need this answe...
Hi guys, I am trying to modify a standard dnn module (Links) that comes with dnn. Essentially what i want is the make a copy of the current links module and change the look of it. I had a look inside the links module, and each link is placed in a table cell. I want to set the background of table cell to be an image and have a mouseover...
Our site requires the password be passed onto another page to auto log into vendor sites which are brought in via iframe. Since passwords are stored as a hash value in our site, the only way I can see being able to get the password from the page that needs it is to store it as a session variable, or pass it along on the querystring, whe...
