Update Scheduler Started By mikaelldnn Hi, I'm automatically updateing a SchedulerHistory item after a custom scheduler has been issued. I want to do this to set the next start time based on when the scheduler was created. As it is by default, if I manually run the scheduler it just adds the frequency. So for example, if I have it scheduled to run at 4AM every day but then I manually run it at 8:30AM the next start time will be 8:30AM the next day and not 4AM. So what I'm doing is to calculate the next start time based on the Sc...	2	2721	2	12/10/2020 9:35 AM by mikaelldnn
How to access to DNN objects from separate app ? Started By Oleg Hi there ! I was able to successfully implement the use of my business application as part of DNN v.07.04.02: I have a page with an iFrame module containing a link to my business application hosted on the same server. I use DNN authorization, and in the application I can get the username using Thread.CurrentPrincipal.Identity.Name, because I use Single Sign On (SHARED AUTHENTICATION). The question is: can I access DNN objects of the current session such as UserInfo, etc., from my applicati...	3	2530	1	10/7/2020 8:16 AM by Oleg
Can we add so called "Filters" to the DNN Event System? Started By Paras Daryanani Many CMSs have built in 'actions' and 'filters'. DNN's event system fulfills the the like of 'actions' where you can add some custom code to do something after a particular event takes place. For example: 'Every time a page is updated, send me an email'. I now have a use case where I need a 'filter' rather than an 'action'. The difference here is that some custom code needs to execute on the object that was just modified, before committing it to the data store, rather than after. For example:...	4	2420	2	9/30/2020 5:05 AM by Paras Daryanani
dnnapiendpoint/api.ashx is making DOTNETNUKE cookie NULL Started By Suresh When a user other than host (for example: Administrator) logs into our DNN portal, a DNN api endpoint at https://xxxx.xxxxxxx.com/...ings&DNNPortalID=345 is setting .DOTNETNUKE cookie to NULL, expiring user session and throwing him out to login page again. The underlying proc for fetching 'getminicartsettings' is working perfect.

@LIbrary for mentioning people anywhere Started By Cody It would be nice to be able to mention people's names in the forums using a DNN Mention Library that handles this for any module that utilizes this library. Is there one currently avaible to tap into Is this something we could add to the platform api		3090	0	3/11/2020 8:28 PM by Cody
bot detection Started By Cody I am not an expert here but I can see a reason to possibly want to see those exceptions. Would there be a way to detect if it's a bot. Also if you can detect a bot maybe we can also control the bots we want to allow. When a bot is detected add it to a list that an admin can allow/deny it's presence. I have wanted to think of a solution for this purpose. This exception gives a clue to a possibility. There are a lot of rogue bots that probably dont care about a robot.txt file. https:/...	4	4007	1	12/5/2019 8:11 PM by Cody
