Best sitemap tools to use?

Can anyone shed a little light on which sitemap setup is the best to use and why? Specifically I'm wanting to submit he best xml sitemap possible to google. 

 Here's what I have found so far and curious if anyone can chime in and if you have used them: 

 1.  Ifinity Google sitemap provider - I'm very familiar with the quality of ifinity's products, specifically Bruce's url master module (use it on every site!).  However, I'm a little confused on the sitemap tool. does it work if you don't have the 4 modules added to your site that they list in the instructions?  Tagger, blog, articles, and wiki?  Does it allow you to control the freq/priority?

2.  http://www.auditmypc.com/free-sitemap-generator.asp - came across this tool.  Anyone used it?  Seems involved but maybe that's what it takes to get a solid sitemap for superior seo rank. 

3. dnn store modules - there are a handful of modules on the store (used to be snowcovered, and hate the new layout...), anything jump out from a good experience?  Seems like these are more geared towards creating a sitemap on your site with links and not the xml setups to submit to google. 

 Any input would be appreciated.  thanks. Mike.

It is possible to change the size of the "Edit Content" popup window?

We are using the Cute Editor and the Save button is not showing on the page by default.  We have to scroll down every time to click it.

See sample at: http://www.harriergroup.com/mll/Image...

Thanks!
Mike

Text HTML Module Not Saving After Upgrade

Thanks Hans

If others have the problem it might be one thing to look at.  In my case the database size is not a problem, and even the preview doesn't appear with changes.

Still hoping for a solution, or a newer version that fixes it.

Notifying rejected users.
sure, that would work, but it requires a core edit so would need to be applied on each upgrade. I'd suggest you copy the code to a new module you create (it could be as simple as a razor module using the razor host module) and add the additional sendmail code there), that way you dont have to worry about upgrades. You could even create a new admin page for that module to live on.

sql express to MS sql
yes, this is entirely possible - see http://stackoverflow.com/questions/302690/how-to-move-a-sql-server-express-mdf-file-to-a-different-sql-sever-express-serve for some tips. You can either create a new standrd user (make sure they're a dbo) or use the networkservice user -depending on the approach you use standard security or trusted connection - http://www.connectionstrings.com/sql-server-2008

Changing the Colours of my Skin

I would like to know how to change the colours of my skin. I am using the DarkKnight default skin provided by DotNetNuke -- the Home Mega Menu for all of my site pages -- and I would like to know how to change the colour from the rather bland black and white that they provide. I went into my folders containing the site Portals -> _default -> Skins -> DarkKnight -> Home-Mega-Menu.ascx but I couldn't figure out if this was the file I needed to change the colour. I have a hunch it is one of the css files that I need to access but I am not sure which one it is.

1) Which .css file (or file in general) do I need to access to change the background colour?

2) Also, where do I go to find whichever file I need to change the background colour of the site? 

Thank you!

Dotnetnuke solution for shopping cart system
Hello Caesar, 


There a two shopping cart modules that come to mind for me. 

  1. Catalook - this is probably the fullest featured shopping cart module. Very dense with a ton of customization.
  2. SmithCart - This is one that we actually give as a community (lite) version to our customers and is a very well built and easily configured shopping cart module. 

Both work really well, the price points are a bit different though. Really both work great.

Changing the Location of the Menu
How do I change the location of the menu? I am using the DarkKnight skin -- the Home Mega Menu to be exact -- and I would like to move the menu from being horizontal on the top of the site to being vertical along the left hand side of the page. How do I accomplish this?

Hosting - hostgator or seekdotnet?
Hello George,

With any hosting provider you will want to ask them a few questions.

1.) How do they install DotNetNuke? Is it as a portal of a single installation, are the root web files put directly in the httpdocs or wwwroot directory, etc. Know the environment.

2.) Do they have 24/7/365 live support, and what are the response SLAs? Some providers only give you access to email support on a 24 hour SLA, but advertise 24/7/365 support.

These are a few things that I have seen in my experience, and I can guarantee you that PowerDNN exceeds expectations when it comes to a hosting provider.

Again though, don't be afraid to ask these questions of any host you plan on going with, it's your business, and they want it.

Performance of DNN 6.1.3 vs. 5.6.2
we've (obviously) tested a number of permutations and not seen the performance decrease, so any information anyone can provide would be great (e.g. perhaps it's only seen in certain .net versions or with integrated or classic pipeline)

Retrieve Password link in Account Login Module

Hi,

Is it possible to get rid of the link in the account login module that says Retrieve Password? I know you can set it so that this link is disabled (i.e. gives the user a message that it is virtually useless -- just set enablePasswordRetrieval and enablePasswordReset = "false" in the web.config). This seems like an odd question but I only ask it because I have downloaded and implemented the Mitchel Sellers Secure Password Recovery module. The link can be found here if anyone is interested: http://www.iowacomputergurus.com/free-products/dotnetnuke-modules/secure-password-recovery.

I don't want the user to click on Retrieve Password link because for the Sellers module to work, I must have enablePasswordReset = "true" and clicking on the Retrieve Password link will allow DNN to send the user a new password and this is exactly what I do not want.

Does DNN 6 support SQL Server 2012?
i should note that it's generally low priority as Microsoft do a good job of retaining backwards compatibility so typically you only need note the minimum sql version and all future releases will work as expected.

Messaging System - Disable Emails
Ash is currently PTO so I wouldnt expect an answer - as for settings, no, not in 6.2.0, but we're talking about adding some later on (e.g. get all mails in a daily batch email etc.). However it's not as "bad" a problem as the original messaging - it allowed you to send to any portal user. In the new messaging system only admins/hosts can send to any user - normal users can only send to friends and followers, so if you're not in that state for a user they cant send mail to you (unless you're a member of a social group that they own)
