Brian Dukes By Brian Dukes on 8/28/2007 9:16 AM
Have you ever wanted to change what DotNetNuke says on it's controls? Change "Register" to "Join Us" or "Terms of Use" to "Member Agreement"? It's easier than you think.

DotNetNuke Training Options
Chris Hammond By Chris Hammond on 8/9/2007 2:37 PM

I recently returned from a trip to Chicago to offer a corporate customer a two day training session on Advanced DotNetNuke Topics. That has inspired me to increase some of our marketing materials here at Engage Software to include more of our training options. While we offer training on everything within DotNetNuke, we only list off a small fraction of those topics on our DotNetNuke Training page.

Here's a longer list of some of the training options we can offer for your business needs. (I'll be adding/editing to this list over the next few days)

  • Server Configuration
    • IIS
    • Database
  • Installation
  • DotNetNuk ...

Kiwanis.org featured on DNN
Chris Hammond By Chris Hammond on 8/1/2007 3:29 PM
In the July 07 Issue of the DotNetNuke Newsletter Kiwanis.org was featured in the Project Spotlight! Why does that mean anything to me? Because Engage Software developed a lot of the custom functionality and converted the design to a skin for the Kiwanis site! Check it out at http://www.kiwanis.org

SelectedIndexChanged and ASP.NET AJAX
Brian Dukes By Brian Dukes on 7/19/2007 7:28 AM
Using a DropDownList, RadioButtonList, CheckBoxList, or other similar control as a trigger of an Update Panel (rather than in the Update Panel itself) will cause the initial value not to fire a SelectedIndexChanged event.

Membership Provider Video - Part I
Henry Kenuam By hkenuam on 7/11/2007 5:07 AM

In a previous blog I had posted a document to help developers get started implementing their own provider. This video is aimed at helping those who have had trouble getting their environments setup correctly and issues with the web.config file. I am working on a second video that will walk through modifications required in the code. Coming soon!

DotNetNuke Tip: Packaging your DotNetNuke Module using NANT
Chris Hammond By Chris Hammond on 7/10/2007 3:23 PM
A few years back I was enlightened by Chris Paterra in the ways of using NANT scripts to aid in the packaging of DotNetNuke Modules. Using NANT to package your WAP (web application project) modules within Visual Studio 2005 is a snap, and can save you a LOT of time each time you have to come up with a new release.
