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	1665	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. I checked all of the other normal oddities that sometimes get in the way too. The site still wouldn't load, wouldn't at...		2220	1	4/7/2021 4:41 PM by Will Strohl

Started By Leith I've been using the main DNN website Security Center to check and verify our versions of DNN to see if we needed to upgrade for security reasons. DNN Security Updates \| DNN (DotNetNuke) (dnnsoftware.com) However, that page's content does not appear to have been updated since DNN 9.7.2 so I've been going under the bad assumption there were no security updates. Is there a new location for this information or can that page begin to be updated again	4	2412	2	3/24/2021 9:52 AM by Leith
