I have just installed DotNetNuke under VIsta, and setup my first site.  I have been using Professional DotNetNuke 4.0 as a guide.  According to the book, I should see a wizard in the control panel and also around 18 modules in the module dropdown - currently I only see 6.   I have installed the latest version of the software - 4.5.3. 

Are there any suggestions for resolving these issues?

Thanks

Hugh Mullally

I found the answers to these issues by searching the documentation and the forums - I'm impressed with the amount of supporting material DotNetNuke has!

Apparently the wizard is no longer part of this version of the software - the documentation is still to be updated.  Can someone shed some light on why this has been removed because it looked very useful!!

As far as the missing modules are concerned, I logged in as Host and then used the 'Install additional modules' menu item, which brought up all available modules.  I was then able to select the ones I wanted to install.

Very impressed with the product so far!

Hi Hugh - I hope these answer your questions as sometimes using books is a challenge - they tend to get out of date quicker than they can be printed.

The Site Wizard was regarded something that shouldn't be in the control panel, and was shifted to the Admin / Site Wizard location, and other more used tabs were put in it's place.

The changes regarding the modules are due to the fact that to make installation quicker, only the minimal would be installed initially, and you could then go to Host/Modules and see down the bottom of the page, the other modules ready for installation.

It makes the initial install alot quicker and people complained that they didn't need all these modules installed in the first place, so they are there, you just have to look for them.

While the book is helpful, in reality, nothing beats a few hours of your time working around the features that are available in each build.

Hope this gets you on the right track.

Hi Nina

Thanks for your prompt response - I had figured out the problems, but it was good to understand the rationale behind the decisions!

I've had a look at your skinuncovered website - it looks very interesting - I'm a developer, so my graphic skills are'nt great and this could give me access to the resouces I need...

Hugh
