Could someone kindly point me toward some documentation on how to downgrade from 4.9.3 to 4.9.2?

the .3 version doesn't seem to support custom module settings... at least for me it doesn't... the Settings pages don't render anything in the Content area if they include a custom settings control...

There is no current "downgrade" support to go backwards from a newer version.  The only easy, safe way to do this would be to revert to your backup that you took before you upgrade.

I have heard of people that have done it before, but it is NOT a good idea to try.

Sorry, a downgrade is not supported, the only option to revert to a previous version is to restore a complete backup of your files and database.

Which error do you encounter in DNN 4.9.3 - I am not aware of new issues?

 Thank you for the replies... I definitely don't relish trying to downgrade, but I couldn't figure out what else to do.  The issue is as follows:

 

I have custom modules in my Portal... If I access the Settings of the module while logged in as host, it works fine.

When I added my own custom Settings control in the module definitions and then access the module settings, nothing renders inside the Content Pane at all.  Even if the custom settings control has no code in it whatsoever.

I at first thought this was a server issue since my local versions work fine, but I realize that my dev version is 4.9.2 and the installed server version is 4.9.3.  I downloaded the application from the server to my local machine and attempted to load the Settings of a Module that is customized, and I get the same results: nothing renders inside the ContentPane at all.

I have also tried this with different skins, including the default - this does not seem to be the problem.

If anyone has any other ideas, I am MORE than happy to try... Like everyone, I just need it to work. :-/

 

Thanks again for the replies - much appreciated.  I will fight with it again for one more day and then try downgrading tomorrow if it still does not work.

(If it matters, I am using MS SQL as the database - there is no dev DB; both installations point to the exact same tables)

I assume, there is an issue in your module registration. Check out all module details in Host :: Module Definitions and compare with your local installation.
