Welcome to issue 47 of DNN Creative Magazine.
In this DotNetNuke training series we continue the ASCX method of skinning from the previous issue and now delve into the DotNetNuke NavMenu.
The NavMenu is the default menu that comes with DotNetNuke and is available in DotNetNuke versions 4 and 5. We demonstrate how to configure and setup the NavMenu in your DotNetNuke skins, how to create a horizontal menu, vertical menu and both a horizontal and vertical menu on the same page.
Throughout the tutorial we show you the various attributes that are available for configuring the menu as well as CSS code for styling the design of the menu.
Accompanying the skinning, we have part five in our tutorial series on how to build module interfaces with Open Web Studio. In this episode we demonstrate debugging, enhanced reporting, importing records and scheduling. Each of these techniques is a powerful tool for working with OWS. We show you how to troubleshoot bugs in your OWS applications, how to export reports to Microsoft Excel CSV and Word documents, how to import data from a csv file, and how to schedule your OWS configuration using the DotNetNuke Scheduler.
