We have a Wiki implementation of our IndexItem modules. We found an issue where we were generating links within the body of the content to point to other wiki pages. The code previously search for a anchor tag with the page name as the title. However, in a few cases we found there were 3 or 4 word links that were becoming broken because the code wa...

We had a client project that went live with a new DNN social network a few months ago, but we still have a development website running. When performing some queries on Google, we noticed the development site had URLs ranking higher than the client site.Because we still use the development site for Phase 2 of the project, we needed to add a robots.t...

Never before has a date in history been so significant to so many cultures, so many religions, scientists, and governments. 2012 is an epic adventure about a global cataclysm that brings an end to the world and tells of the heroic struggle of the survivors.

Updated a site from DNN 4.5.4 to DNN 5.1.2. The upgrade went smoothly. However, I decided to make a change in Admin > Site Settings > Advanced > Page Management and got the following error: Error: Site Settings is currently unavailable. DotNetNuke.Services.Exceptions.ModuleLoadException: Cannot insert the value NULL into column 'DefaultLanguage',...

If you have used RDC much, most likely you have experienced "The terminal server has exceeded the maximum number of allowed connections." error message. This error occurs when more than 2 terminal sessions...

This week we have added MMS Messaging functionality to our Messaging and IndexItem module after finding out AT&T released MMS message support for the iPhone. Today, I found out that AT&T is limiting the size of the multimedia files to 3 megabytes.

Dan Aykroyd was in Raleigh today promoting Crystal Head Vodka at our local ABC Store (government regulated liquor store). I have never heard of a liquor signing, but it certainly sounded more interesting than a book signing, so for lunch today, Eric and I decided to stop by the liquor store during our lunch break. We got there a little early and al...

Last week I posted a task in our support system for a new enhancement to provide MMS functionality in our DNN messaging module, when I heard that AT&T would support MMS messages for the iPhone on the 25th of this month. As a developer and inherently a procrastinator, I figured I had till at least the 24th to start this task. But of course, AT&T app...

My son and I went fishing at Hatteras Inlet yesterday. It was a beautiful day with a high of about 78 and plenty of sun and a half moon the night before. SSW Winds at 4 – 5 mph. Water temperature on ocean side was about 77 degrees and 75 degrees on the sound side. A perfect day for fishing...

We recently finished development of a custom social search implementation using DotNetNuke and Venexus Search Engine for the System Center Central site. When performing Web queries, a fulltext index query is first run against the local database for keyword relevancy. If less than 15 results are returned, a Bing API Web query is performed (configura...
