Hi guys/gals,

I've come across a very weird situation and I'm wondering if I'm misunderstanding something about 'Enable Skin Widgets' and jQuery Registration.

In a module of mine, I'm making a call to DotNetNuke.Framework.jQuery.RequestRegistration() but jQuery only gets injected if the 'Enable Skin Widgets' setting under 'Admin - > Site Settings - > Appearance' is turned on. As soon as I turn it off then no more jQuery, at least not for anon users. It was my understanding that these weren't related.

Can anyone clear this up for me? I searched fixed bugs but didn't some across anything.

what version of DotNetNuke are you using - the enable skin widget's part is meant to be additive and not take away -the current code looks like this:

 //register DNN SkinWidgets Inititialization scripts

 if (PortalSettings.EnableSkinWidgets)

{

 jQuery.RequestRegistration();

 ClientAPI.RegisterStartUpScript(Page, "initWidgets", string.Format( "<script type=\"text/javascript\" src=\"{0}\" ></script>",

ResolveUrl("~/Resources/Shared/scripts/initWidgets.js")));

}



so as you can see it requests registration meaning jquery will be there on any page -if another module also requests registration it wont matter as its been done already. The symptoms you describe suggest that the requestregistration call in your module may not be working (or may be working too late e.g. in an event handler rather than the init/load event in the module)

Thanks Cathal,

I'm actually doing it in Page_PreRender so I thought it should still work. Perhaps that's too late in the order. I'll do some testing to see if that's the cause.

Thanks again.

Page_PreRender is never the best place to alter system level settings since actions that happen in OTHER controls at the Pre_Render stage may have already occurred.

I would move the registration to Page_Init or Page_Load.
