All settings modules getting opened full-screen Started By David Fenske Hi Dnn friends, On one portal of our client's DNN install, every settings module (and the login window) at some point switched to opening full width instead of the normal modal style. The other several portals of this install are normal. I've reviewed all the Site Settings - the setting that seems would control this: Site Behavior > More > Enable Popups, is still set to Enabled. This is true of any module setting window, including editing content in an HTML module. The /ctl/ URL is shown ...	7	2480	2	4/12/2021 4:56 PM by David Fenske

Files with wrongs Datetimes Started By manukubs Hello everybody, I have a very strange problem: files seem to be created/updated abnormally, or maybe it's another problem. Here are some info in order to describe the problem : I can see there are differences between FTP file datetimes and DNN file datetimes (in File Manager). For example, on the FTP, some files were created AND modified on 05/03/2021, but on DNN, these datetimes are updated nearly everyday, and we can see on DNN that theses same files were created, for example, on ...	3	1615	1	4/15/2021 7:34 AM by manukubs

Restored Website Wouldn't Load Started By Will Strohl I hope this helps someone... I just a very random instance where I was finalizing a client upgrade documentation doc and completed our last step of merging web.config updates. The site all of a sudden refused to load. I restored the previous web.config because sometimes there's an odd typo or something. I then used Visual Studio to validate the web.config, just in case.
