Welcome to issue 45 of DNN Creative Magazine.
This issue begins with a tutorial for Markit Modules Slideshow module. The Slideshow module is useful for displaying your featured articles and products as an image, text content or you can even display an existing module within a slideshow. This module displays content in a similar manner to the msn.com home page.
Following this we also cover Markit Modules free PageEar module. The PageEar module allows you to place Page Peel advertisements on your DotNetNuke websites.
Next, we demonstrate how to use DNN Stuff’s Module Rotator. This module allows you to rotate the content of multiple modules in the space of a single module. You can configure the module rotator to rotate modules each time the page loads, or you can also configure a timer to rotate through the modules in milliseconds.
Following this we explore the free Monitter for DNN module by Joe Brinkman. This is a simple module which allows you to easily display a real-time feed of twitter search results on your website.
This issue also releases the much anticipated third part of our series on How to Build a Public Knowledge Base Module using R2i’s Open Web Studio by Paul Deschenes. In this installment we explore how to build the user search page for searching knowledge base articles. We demonstrate how to implement record paging, column sorting, how to create a categories module, how to create a print function for the articles, as well as how to add an articles rating feature.
Finally, we have a podcast covering the latest DotNetNuke News as well as more tips and tricks.
This issue comes complete with 14 videos and 1 podcast!
