Hi, it is possible to do the coversion of Dictionary<string, string> to DotNetNuke.Entities.Portals.PortalSettings, because PortalController.Instance.GetPortalSettings(portalID) return Dictionary and need PortalSettings to call Mail.SendMail in a custom register module.

Thanks

Juan,

could you please describe what you are trying to do exactly? I can only guess, but the Dictionary<string,string> returned by the function contains the SettingName and the SettingValue for each portal setting.

Let's assume you are looking for a portal setting called "SMTPmode". You can get this by

Dictionary<string,string> portalSettings = PortalController.Instance.GetPortalSettings(PortalId);
string smtpMode = portalSettings["SMTPmode"];

Happy DNNing!
Michael

Thanks for reply Michael

I'm doing a custom register service module and I need to use the function

public static string SendMail(UserInfo user, MessageType msgType, PortalSettings settings)

included in DotNetNuke.Services.Mail Library, to send register email notifications.  SendMail requires PortalSettings type and I do not know how to instantiate for different portalid and not the current.

Thanks

Juan,

when the other portal is in the same DNN installation you might use something like

int portalID = ((PortalInfo)((PortalInfo[])PortalController.Instance.GetPortals().ToArray()).Where(pi => pi.PortalName == "OtherPortal")).PortalID;

Happy DNNing!
Michael
