2sxc 10.06 has a long awaited feature .IsDemoItem (to differentiate if an item is just demo or real content), an inline wysiwyg with various configuration options.

In 2011 I spent a significant amount of time with the DNN Corp Marketing and Sales teams to assist them with their content marketing and sales campaigns. As part of that process I had learned a great deal about how marketing auotmation tools such as Marketo and Salesforce actually functioned from a technical perspective. I had also learned some of the challenges and frustrations of integrating these solutions with DotNetNuke at that time.

I've been using DNN nearly since it launched, which is nearly 17 years ago now. Among my DNN accomplishments is founding the original community-based DNN conference, originally named Day of DotNetNuke and first hosted in Tampa, FL. That was 10 years ago. Things have come full circle now that the DNN Summit conference is going back to Orlando. It's with great pride that I'm announcing we're silver sponsors of DNN Summit 2020. 

Sometimes it’s easy to forget some of the simple things when you've been working with something over a long period of time.

There are a number of things that change when you progress from developing a module just for yourself to developing modules for a wider audience. DNN has a ton of features to make life easier for you and to protect the user on the other side. This is vital because you have no idea where the module will be installed. Like the version of DNN your module will be running on, other extensions that have been installed or the selected theme. In this post I'll delve into some of the factors influencing the decision which DNN version to target with your extension.

I have said on many an occasion. And I'll readily admit that in part this is just an old coder's frustration with a new technology. One of the many "get off my lawn" moments I've gone through. But like it or not, NuGet is here to stay and in our Microsoft-oriented world it is the standard way to resolve references. Before we had NuGet we'd do this "manually". So before I go any deeper into this, let's first explore what the breadth of the problem is and how we used to do this in the old days. You know, when telephones were still attached to a wall.

Then comes Ukraine, Canada and Russia. And the city that is responsible for most visits is....*drum roll*...Numansdorp...Yeah, google that, my friend.

DNN has settings that allows the user, at login, to choose to stay logged in longer. By default these settings are off and so many go years without grokking these high ROI, easy to use options. Read on if clicking a checkbox and staying logged in for 4 days or 2 weeks sounds useful!!
