Well it's been a busy summer for me and it looks like it isn't slowing down just yet. Earlier this month I spent a week in the Washington DC area conducting some advanced DotNetNuke Module Development Training for a new client. In just over a week I'll be in Topeka Kansas for the SCCA Solo Nationals, I'm definitely looking forward to getting away from computers for a week and just enjoying racing a car or two!
I've got quite a few speaking engagements coming up this fall, here's a quick list, I'm sure i'll go into more detail before each event.
October 2nd I'll be speaking at the Information Systems Programming club at UM St. Louis
October 19th and 20th I'll be giving 2 or 3 presentations at the 2nd Tulsa Tech Fest, I presented...

Engage Software has just launched another website. The new site is a portal for The Ticket Guys (www.theticketguys.com). It is built using the DotNetNuke portal framework, though we had to develop new modules and enhance existing modules to get all of the desired functionality on the site. So if you're looking for St. Louis Cardinals, St. Louis Rams,...

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)

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

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.

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!
