Hello.

I need to get the path to the portal from my Controller class, for instance: "C:\inetpub\wwwroot\DNN\Website\Portals\0"

How can I get the path?

Thanks in advance.

The easiest way it to simply pass the path to the Controller class. I would NOT recommend that you go directly to the database and try to figure it out because the database schema changes frequently.

Did I misunderstand? I was thinking that the module's Controller class would not know what portal it was being called from.

Come to think of it, there is also a property that is already mapped to a physical location:
