Hi all frends!
I am developing a program to port all my small sites over to portals in the DNN enviroment.
I will make Tabs of all my Categories and Articles, and display them in a hierarchical Page layout.
I have a solution that almost work, but I guess it is very fragile. I add data to the tables manually with LINQ, and maybe this is not so smart, if the layout in Tabs or other related tables alter, due to upgrades, my system will fail.
And I have a problem. When I add all the pages to the site, and all the relations. There is a weird layout of the pages. It seems like the TabOrder is interfering with the Parent-Child relationship. If I have three tabs with TabOrder 1, 2, 3 and all these have childs with the same TabOrder, the pages will not display properly. It seems like I have to have some sort of unique TabOrder for each level?
This made me think, maybe it is better to add the Tabs trough method calls from DotNetNuke.dll? Is this possible? Can I register the dll, and use it inside my project to add the pages? And if I can, what is the method calls, or where can I find some documentation on this?
Hope some of you out there understand my question. And maybe I'll see you on OpenForce.
Best regards
