| Venexus Modules 4.0 and Beyond By Jeff Smith |
|
|
We officially have released the 4.0 version for all of our DNN modules in our subscription. This is a major release for several reasons.
- EntitySpaces - We are now using the latest release from EntitySpaces (2008.1.927.0) .
- BusinessObjects - Since we updated ES, we had to update our BusinessObjects.
- WebControls - Webcontrols handles assemblies for ES and BO. All modules use WebControls for bookmarks, comments, ratings, and voting.
- Templates - As we perfect our own DNN social network, we frequently make changes to the templates to support new features and fucntionality.
- DNN 4.7 - 4.9 - Our 4.x releases will support DNN 4.7 - 4.9. When DotNetNule 5.0 is released, we will be releasing all of our modules as a 5.0 release in support for the new DNN manifest files changes and DNN 5.0 specific methods. At some point, we will no longer support pre-DNN 5.0 sites, but date is not determined at this time.
There are also significant changes in the Groups and ProfileSearch module.
For the Groups we added:
- WebControls to allow bookmarks, comments, ratings, and voting.
- Image handling for Group image (Group photo album will be in the next release just like you have in ProfileSearch)
- Latest X Groups to show newly created/updated groups.
For the ProfileSearch we added:
- Karma points for display
- DisplayName in window title for SEO.
- Email notifications when adding friends.
- FirstName and LastName search
- Setting for how many photo albums to display in a row.
Notes:
- You must install WebControsl first.
- You will need to "Reload Template" in the module settings for all modules.
- AskAnExpert will be discontinued. We picked up a new project to build the functionality into SearchDirectory and IndexItem to handle all functionality that AskAnExpert provided.
