Seeking Community Guidance: DNN 10 Alternatives for Legacy Extensions Started By Sandun Amaratunga Hi DNN Community 👋, We have recently upgraded our platform to DNN 10.1.2. As part of this upgrade, we’ve identified several legacy extensions that are no longer compatible with DNN 10 and, unfortunately, do not provide supported upgrade paths. In some cases, the original vendors also appear to be no longer active. The affected extensions are: Documents Feedback Ultra Media Gallery Ultra Video Gallery Canam Wiki These extensions were previously used across multiple porta...	6	454	2	12/19/2025 2:05 AM by Sandun Amaratunga

DNN Community Blog Layout on mobile Devices Started By Forro_54 Hi, I have come across 2 issues to do with the dmm community blog module formatting layout on mobile devices particularly Chrome.

Users Online module still available? Started By D0rk52 Hi everyone, I’m trying to locate the old Users Online module for DNN. I remember using it in earlier versions to show currently active users on the site, but I can’t seem to find it anymore. Funny enough, I ended up converting it into a WordPress plugin just for personal use 😅 — but I’d love to have the original or something similar working natively in DNN again. WP Online Users Pro – AZ Managed IT Service LLC Was it deprecated or removed from the DNN ecosystem If anyone knows whe...	10	456	0	6/20/2025 12:30 PM by D0rk52

New ASP Markup and HTML won't Render While Customizing Blog Module Started By Nick Guzi Hello, I am working within the Blog module to add a few customizations to my site. Interestingly any new HTML or ASP markup that I add to the module will not render at all. While looking in dev tools in Chrome its as if the changes I made never happened at all. I have already cleared the cache and restarted the application, as well as assuring that I am working within the right file. Does anyone have any ideas as to what could be blocking the new markup I want to add I tested this with a cow...	2	261	0	10/29/2025 8:25 PM by Nick Guzi

Dependency Injection (DI) issue in classes inheriting from ModuleSearchBase Started By Mahmoud Nouraei Hello everyone, I'm currently developing a module for DNN and I've encountered a problem regarding Dependency Injection (DI) within my search components. The Core Problem My module's search controller class inherits from ModuleSearchBase. Challenge: I am unable to use Constructor Injection to inject my required services (such as IMyService or core DNN services) into this class. It appears that since ModuleSearchBase is a legacy base class, it is not instantiated by the core DNN DI...	3	295	2	11/25/2025 11:59 AM by Mahmoud Nouraei
