The Official Community Forums Module for DNN CMS
IMPORTANT!!! This is a Release Candidate (RC). Please do not use this installation/upgrade package for any production websites of any kind. This release is not supported and is only provided for test purposes, to allow others to test their websites first.
IMPORTANT: Upgrade Notes
The release notes will follow, below these important notes.
New Bootstrap 4 & 5 Forum Theme
Please be sure to test this and report any issues you may find. It's a brand-new feature!
If you are using a Bootstrap 3 theme - including DNN Xcilliin - use the
community-defaulttheme rather than thecommunity-bootstrapthemeNew Languages Added!
Dutch already had a language pack, but now there are language packs for German, French, Spanish, and Italian. They were generated though, so we could use your help from the community to make sure the translations are indeed accurate.
We recommend that you use Peter Donker's translation software (below) to make things easier for you.
Upgrading? Reindex Your Search
There have been significant updates in the way the forums module integrates with the DNN search engine. This includes a handful of bug fixes. It's important to reindex your DNN search as soon as possible after the upgrade.
NEW CSS Loading Order
CSS loading has been improved to deliver robust CSS both within the module, across all themes, and then theme-specific with a custom override.
New Community Forum's CSS Load order (since 8.0)
~/DesktopModules/ActiveForums/module.css(already existing)~/DesktopModules/ActiveForums/themes/themes.css(new name and CSS content / used across all themes)~/DesktopModules/ActiveForums/themes/_currenttheme_/theme{.min}.css(already existing / new name). Can now have a.min.cssvariant.~/DesktopModules/ActiveForums/themes/_currenttheme_/custom/theme{.min}.css(new) has been updated. Can now have a.min.cssvariant.Orphaned Web.Config Update (since 8.0)
If you have previously installed the Community Forums module --and its URL rewriter in order to use friendly URLs-- that process inserted the attribute
runAllManagedModulesForAllRequests="true"into the<configuration><system.webServer><modules>tag in the mainweb.config.Per Microsoft documentation, this attribute is obsolete if you are running IIS 7 (plus a patch), or IIS 8+.
Since you may have other modules that require it, we have chosen to NOT remove it automatically. If you have no other modules that require it, you many remove it manually.
