I know this has been brought up before and probably by me but the one thing that the gets on my nerves about
DNN is the telling signs that the site was built using it.  Examples are the registration pages and the login control.  OK it can be edited but everything gets over wriiten up the upgrades.

It would be really nice of these controls where customisable in terms of there look and feel.  I know that this is probably very difficult to acheive but it would definatly be worth the effort.  Well I think anyway.

Thats my 10 pence work anyway

Lets have a vote, i wish one could do polls on this site

But before everyone gets back to me on all the hard work that all the contributors have put in to this project.  i know about that and I respect them and DNN for the fantasitic software it is

 

Cheers

you can always use a custom module for registration, but the addition of authentication providers in DNN 4.6.0 makes it even more difficult to implement this without loosing functionality (e.g. LiveID login).

There is a commercial login module that is fully templated, but it no longer works in the recent DNN versions and the developer has vanished... so avoid it if you see it.

Back in DNN2.12 days I wrote up a list titled "How to tell you're on a DNN site". I had about 15 pretty good items on it and it kept me amused for a long time before I lost it. I didn't post it because I also discovered around about then how delicate the community here is.

There's certainly a lot of power in the whole token system that could be applied to all aspects of DNN. I once suggested that DNN could just become a great big token engine where developers add functionality by adding their tokens to the system instead of in little module 'boxes' as it is now. Skin objects are already that sort of thing and many modules use tokens, allowing the builder to decide where the functionality will be and how it will look, but it's all of course completely seperated from the core and from each other.

The next version of Announcements will use the new TokenReplace from core to implement its templating system, i.e. we are getting cloder to your idea ;-)

Practically, not all applications can be implemented just by using tokens, but we expect, some will become much easier to be implemented and more flexible in its presentation.
