Security Roles Started By Deleted User Hi - I'm going round in circles here getting this to work as I want, any pointers appreciated. Have read the community guide on the base roles which makes sense, whats tripping me up is how the roles interact and how the role blocking functions What I would like to achieve is: A public 'unknown' user can go to a specified page form by url and fill it in (have assumed the 'unauthorised' role for that). Using the form they submit registration data as part of the public form (or the st...	6	3103	1	10/5/2020 8:39 AM by Deleted User
Creating Dynamic Links for Documents Started By Jerod Brown Within our DNN sites for clients they many have 3-4 Administrators, and then 30 content creators with different levels of access from managing just a few modules to managing entire sections of the site. Over time we have come up with some best practices for this type of setup for them to easily manage and organize their documents, and still restrict their access so depending on the level of access they can upload and save documents within their own departments subfolders in the asset manager. ...	3	3875	1	9/23/2019 1:34 PM by Jerod Brown

Do as I say, not as I do! Started By Joe Craig I've been cleaning up a DNN installation that began life as DNN 4.3.5 back in January of 2007. Needless to say, it's seen lots of things, and I am up to 9.4.4 with plans of getting to 9.7.2. Today I've been cleaning up the crud that has accumulated. I started by deleting modules not used, out of date, not upgradeable, etc. Then I looked at the Desktop modules folder!!! There were probably a couple of dozen folder corresponding to modules I had deleted years ago, and some that weren't ...	2	1772	2	9/30/2020 10:44 AM by Joe Craig

Creating Short URL redirects vs changing Page URL Started By Jerod Brown We develope some large sites like 700 pages, and we have a new client that has been using DNN in the past and we are in development for the newest version of their site. In the past when a client wanted a short URL (ie before DNN 9) we would create a top level page (no parent) and then redirect that to within the site where the short URL should point. (ie the URL would be mydomain.com/sale then redirect that to mydomain.com/department/products/sale) This client has use the Advances setti...	1	6660	1	9/29/2020 10:42 AM by Jerod Brown

Repeating errors & site down Started By Marnix Hi there, On this DNN 8.0.4 site, which has a lot of users, sometimes the site gives an error. After clearing the cache, or recycling the app pool the error is gone. When we look in the log, we see a lot of repetitions of the same error which probably cause the problems. So they look like this: at System.Collections.Generic.Dictionary`2.Insert(TKey key, TValue value, Boolean add) at DotNetNuke.Entities.Users.UserController.GetCachedUser(Int32 portalId, String username) at DotNet...	1	1658	1	9/29/2020 4:29 AM by Marnix
