Last week I had the opportunity to attend a workshop on the DNN scheduled task. I was there because I was giving a couple of presentations for my good friends at the SDN (http://www.sdn.nl). The workshop was given by Leigh Pointer and he showed us how to make a scheduled task as well as some ins and outs on how the scheduler is administered in DNN ...

Some of you will recognize this. A recurring pattern in DNN module support is to find out what the customer has running in the first place.

It has been a while since I took over the DNN Core News module and still there's no new release. This post will explain a little bit what has been happening 'behind the scenes' and try to give some insight into why things can go so slow.

DMX includes numerous ways in which you can extend its functions. In this article I zoom in on making a custom control appear in the ‘Custom Attributes’ list. An example of usage would be for instance using this to display a dropdown filled with data from some other application and storing the selected value with the document.
