We have a system that relies on a lot of GeoCoding. Any time a user's address is set or updated, we need to add GeoCode info for that user for our module. I know I could write a database trigger but I'm hoping DNN has a way for modules to subscribe to events. I saw some references to this in some places but the info was very old. Does this functionality exist? Is there are current documentation? WordPress has this functionality with it's add_action functionality. Anything similar in DNN?
