Active Social for DotNetNuke
“Active Social delivers the most complete, out of the box social networking solution for DotNetNuke. We knew, based on Active Modules’ long track record of delivering high quality, enterprise class and extensible modules for DotNetNuke that their latest release of Active Social would be perfect for us to move beyond a vertical market forum into an organic specialty social network. “ says Steven Webster, owner of BikeClicks.com. “Active Social allows us to have our site up and running quickly, but still customized every last detail from how it works to what it looks like without writing code. This flexibility has allowed us to incorporate Active Social into our site seamlessly.”
“BikeClicks.com is a perfect example of how Active Social can take a large, but simple forum based community to the next level of social networking and on-line communities. Active Social provides site owners with the tools necessary to attract new members and encourage site participation,” says Will Morgenweck, President of Active Modules, Inc. “We know we have a successful product when we see sites such as BikeClicks.com achieve their own goals using Active Social.”
BikeClicks.com was part of the Active Social Beta release which allowed Steven Webster to upgrade his site and launch with Active Social 1.3 two weeks early. He says, “The results have already paid off. Since re-launching our site on Active Social 1.3 we've seen an immediate increase in traffic, membership, activity and can literally watch new user to user connections being made in real time.”
Active Social 1.3 includes several new features including: Social Summary, Categories, Auto Friend, RSS Manager, Welcome Messages and more. The template and skinning systems have also been updated, which allows for simpler customization of the module and better site design integration out of the box.
