1.) How to make web application in DotnetNuke? Does we have to make a new project in the Desktopmodule folder of Dotnetnuke to create web site?Basically question is that does we need to make a web site in dotnetnuke folder or we have to make it in a different project.

2.) How can we work on a Dotnetnuke project which is present on the server.Does we have to first download the whole project data and then have to configure it on our system and then make the changes into it?

3.) How does database work with the modules and the whole site?

Please help me in understanding about the dotnetnuke.

Thanks,
Abhishek Tiwari

Abhishek,

I develop modules in a separate directory from the DotNetNuke Source.  I use the information provided by Joe Brinkman in this post.  It describes some additions to the project file that will copy the appropriate files to the desired DNN installation for testing.  Works well and is very easy to implement.  Nice part about this method, to test against a different version, just change one line in the project file. 

Also VS2008 allows you to edit the project file -- simple unload the project, and VS2008 then allow you to edit the project file.  Save the file and reload... simple.

You still need to read ... like the post I mentioned... great stuff -- time well spent!!!

Hope this helps ...
Paul.
