Hi,

I want to add feature in my dnn site.

Admin can add unlimited Microsite and all micro site has same layout like banner, menu having contact us,about us.

Basically micro site is a mini site used to promote/advertise a particular product. On the main site, all the products are displayed together while in micro site, each micro site displays particular product only.

Honda Website Example:

I found one live example.
See the Honda website. If you open their website, you are navigated on this home page http://www.hondacarindia.com/default.aspx.


Now, click any car link. Say, “Jazz”. You will see a new website with its own home page opening.

http://www.hondacarindia.com/jazz/home.html

Now try “Honda Accord”. It will open another sub site or micro site.

http://www.hondacarindia.com/accord/index.html

What is interesting to see is that each micro site has same structure… “About Honda”, “Price”, “Media center”, “Contact us”, “feedback” etc.

Only the content change. We need something like this.


So i want to add such Micro site feature in my Dotnetnuke site. So admin can add such micro site.

Please can any body help me is this possible in dotnetnuke? How can we do this?

Your help really Appreciate.

Thanks.

Chintan Dave.

Yes it is possible in DNN.

You can accomplish this many different ways. You can create a new portal using different skin but having similar layouts. Or you can create an example of your microsite and export that as a template. Whenever you create a new microsite, just use that template, you can change the skin/design of that microsite easily by installing and applying new skin to it.

If you need further help on implementing it, feel free to contact me at http://r2idnn.com
