It hasn't been that long since we first announced the release of the brand new user management module for DNN, the Upendo DNN User Manager. We're already releasing a third release. This one mainly has some enhancements to the user creation and editing views.  

I can't express to you how excited I am to announce this module being released - not over a blog. Our latest module to be released is a user management module for DNN that doesn't have Telerik built in. A client needs to upgrade, and this is the last remaining remnant of Telerik in their. No other modules could meet their needs, so here we are!  

Whoa... If you're keeping up with the official DNN blog, this marks 3 different project releases for us in less than a week! This time, we're announcing a brand new extension that allows you to enable the ability for your website end-users to authenticate themselves using a far more modern means, than the aging username & password method.  

We originally released the UpendoDNN Generator just less than two years ago. Holy moly, I thought I was going to look it up and find a much longer span of time! I've personally used this SO many times for projects, I guess it seems like much longer. Upgrades alone are faster. This release brings a couple of fun updates, and it sets the stage for some other updates we can't wait to work on later.  

This DNN release is extremely important. It resolves a dozen of security issues which have so far only been managable if you were an expert. Please read on..

At this month's Southern Fried DNN meeting, Ryan Moore and David Weinstein lead a discussion about the uses of CloudFlare for DNN sites. Ryan introduces CloudFlare concepts and a look at CloudFlare SSL pros/cons and setup steps, individual CloudFlare settings, and the Cloudflare rules which benefit DNN sites. David discusses using CloudFlare for disaster recovery and migration scenarios.

Our second and final session at DNN Summit 2021 was about upgrading DNN. After having upgraded literally thousands of DNN websites over the past 18 years, this session is the culmination of everything I've learned over that period of time. Most of the issues we run into tend to be completely avoidable.

Use best practices to avoid the total fiasco that just hit managed.com. Step one is understanding what's happening, and never placing web files on Drive C.
