Thank God for you, I couldn't find it for anything, and nobody else was talking about it.

I always find the problem with writing modules is that the documentation is always out of date.

I've created a module and would like to see it run. I've not packaged it up or anything, all I've done is built it in the DesktopModules folder as per the Dotnetnuke compiled module instructions. It then says I have to Browse to the Host/Module definitions page and select Add Module. This is incorrect but I am not sure what the DNN 6 way of installing a new module project is.

I will see if I can find an updated DNN 6 template for modules.
Pretty poor development experience guys. Disappointing, it could be so much easier with accurate documentation.

Ok, I've installed the latest Visual Studio Starter kit, and created a new module.
The Documentation.html page says the following:

To install your module, browse to your development DotNetNuke website and log in as a Host (SuperUser) user.
Browse to the Host/Module Definitions page and select Add Module. In the drop-down combo at the top of the page select the Manifest file for your new module and click Install.
Next browse to the Host/SQL page. Copy the text from the 01.00.00.SqlDataProvider file, and paste in the text box. Make sure the "Run as script" checkbox is checked and click Execute.
Your module should now be installed, and you can add it to a page in the usual manner.

Is that accurate or out of date? I could not find the Add Module option under the Host/Module definitions page. I suspect this is horribly out of date. Would someone please provide the way to install a module using the Extension wizard (I'm assuming thats the right place to do it?)
thanks. Also please update the docs with accurate instructions guys!
thanks!

when I want install (deploy) light box module , I have got this error   A critical error has occurred. Request for the permission of type 'System.Net.WebPermission, System, Version=2.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=b77a5c561934e089' failed. Help please I use DotnetNuke version 06:...

also I've just download and deploy DotnetNuke version 06:00:02 (72), what do I do until I upgrade the version as noted, will it be affected the preparation of SQL? Or the database? Do I have to re-setup the wizard steps from the beginning?
