Hi,

I'm trying to update the freetextbox provider in DNN 4.4.0. Unfortunately this is my first go at Visual Web Developer 2005 and .Net v2 development (previous stuff has been on VS2003 and .net v1.1).

I've managed to get a DNN website up and running fine, however....

When I open 'Provider.Ftb3HtmlEditorProvider.vbproj' in VWD2005 is tries to do a conversion saying it was created on an older version of Visual Studio, This then fails with the error 'ERROR: Unable to parse project file Provider.Ftb3HtmlEditorProvider.vbproj.'

Can someone point me in the right direction?

Thanks
Roger

OK. Visual Studio solved that problem. I've loaded the DNN 4.4.0 solution, built and everything goes fine. However, when I edit the FTB provider it doesn't build it unless I specifically tell it to build that project. It always build webutility, countrylistbox, library and urlrewrite, and won't deploy the ftb code, presumably because it didn't build it.

I'm obviously missing something.

Sorry for the simple questions.

Cheers
Roger

Thanks again for the response. I copied in a new version of the solution, and it shows all the projects (32 I think), but only seems to build/deploy the 4 of them. Worst comes to worst I'll create a new solution and add the projects I need back in.

What I needed was an updated FTB provider so that it doesn't remove the servername URLs, to many of my items get emailed out, so I need the links to work. I've managed to do that my making the one line change, then specifically building the provider and copying the .dll. Just not really the most efficient way of doing it.

Cheers
Roger
