Steve...In your fix above, I can only get it to work if "Categories" is changed to all caps...

Change in CreateInputForm() and ButtonUloadClick()...
Dim controlType As String = oRepositoryBusinessController.GetSkinAttribute(xmlDoc, "Categories", "Select", "MULTIPLE")

to..
Dim controlType As String = oRepositoryBusinessController.GetSkinAttribute(xmlDoc, "CATEGORIES", "Select", "MULTIPLE")

Its possible that I have caused this through some other changes I have made to Form.ascx...but I cannot find anything in my code that would force all-caps for the above lines. However, all-caps is the only way it works correctly for me...and then it works great. Incidentally, the capability to mix SINGLE & MULTIPLE Attributes on one form...very nice.

"All caps" may or may not be an issue...

I'm so glad that there is a fix for this radio button issue.  also, I look forward to the possibility of Dropdowns for attributes in the future. 

My question is this:

I have DNN 4.3.7 installed and my installation does not include the source code for the repository module.  So, I downloaded a versin of the module that includes the source code.  What steps are involved in replacing the version of the Repository that I have with the Source Code version?  Also, will I lose my current repository uploads?

Thanks A Lot!

This may not be the recommended method...but I setup the source at home and make code changes using VS.net on my laptop, rebuild those changes, unzip the install package, copy/paste this new dll into the "install" package, re-zip the "install package", log in as host on the web, and perform a typical "Install New Module". I've had no problems using this method.

I haven't lost any data from over-writing on the server but, as always, you should backup your data first.

You should not install the source version of any module on your production server imho.

Here's how I do it:

  1. I have a local install of Dotnetnuke, IIS, and MSDE/SQLExpress on my personal computer.
  2. Install DNN just like I would on a server but it's all local.
  3. Once DNN is running I install the install version of the module through Host->Module Definitions.
  4. Unzip the source files over top of the install version in the DesktopModules/Repository directory.
  5. Edit the repository.sln in notepad if my local site is not http://localhost/DotNetNuke
  6. Open the .sln file in VS2003 and make whatever changes need to be done.
  7. Compile the code.
  8. You could do it as tworkman suggests or you if the changes were only to ascx.vb files you can just copy the new .dll files into the bin directory on your server.
  9. Like tworkman said, always backup your database/site before making changes to it.

I only have VS 2005 (because I thought I had to have VS 2005 to use DNN 4.3.7)

When I open th eproject in VS 2005 it tries to convert the project.  The conversion fails.  It says I have to re-refernce the DNN project.  But then I can't re-reference it with the Reference dialog box. 

Do I have to use VS 2003?

Thanks
