Hello DNN forums!

I am relatively new to the DNN suite and unfamiliar with all of the modules at my disposal. There are a few I've used on other content managements systems. Does DNN 7.1 come with any of the following?

  • PopUp Module - for broadcasting upcoming events like "Townhall Coming Soon!" We're looking to automate it on user sign-in for our health benefits portals.
  • DNN Expandable Text/HTML - a module for reducing text heavy pages to be more manageable. 
  • Tell-A-Friend function - for forwarding postings, articles, updates and more through an email notification
  • DotNetNuke Comments module - I saw something similar developed by Ash Prasad in a webinar on Mobile App Development. Is there a comments module for DNN 7.1?

Also, how would one go about implementing a newsfeed feature for highlighting new postings with a fader or slider? 

Thank you, guys. :-)

Zackary,

Popup Module: I have read about someone who has developed this in a maybe more comfortable way, but is is quite easy to do with some jQuery injection. I use Will Strohl's Content Injection Module for DotNetNuke for that with a little bit of jQuery using the dnnAlert function, something like

 $(document).ready(function ($) {
   $.dnn {
      text: 'Townhall coming soon!',
      width: 700,
      title: 'Note!'
   });
});

Expandable Text/HTML: I don't know exactly what you mean by that, but maybe the solution is easy with the above module as well using Panels.

Tell-a-friend function: This is maybe included in some news, articles, blogs... module. Otherwise you can also use jQuery (and Will Strohls module), find an example here.

Comments - have a look at DNN Feedback.

Happy DNNing!
Michael
