Hey Michael
I have dilligently worked my way through all your tutorials from the Super Simple to LinqThings4Sale in vb and cs and I have only one word...
Brilliant.
Without guys like you people like me would stand no chance.
I have had my fair share of problems though, to put it lightly.
Most of the problems were self-inflicted through negligence and/or oversight.
Others may be specific to my platform(Vista, IIS(Configured as per your instructions), VWD 2008 Express, SQL Express and DNN 482(I like the bleeding edge)).
The solutions and workarounds I have come up with are:
Problem 1: VWD Express does not make any changes to <codedom> or <assemblies> on build, although 3.5 is selected as Target Framework.
And if I manually edit the config file, I can't get to the Module Definitions page.
Solution/Workaround: Change Target Framework to 2.0. Build.
Change the Target Framework to 3.5. Build.
Problem 2: I install LinqThings4Sale to a NEW DNN installation after using the above workaround and receive build errors.
Solution/Workaround: Delete the .dbml file in App_Code\LinqThings4Sale. Recreate the .dbml file as per the tutorial.
Problem 3: When logged in and after expanding a category in LinqThings4Sale, I browse to another page.
I then hit the BACK button and the page can not be found untill refreshed.
In Version 1 of LinqThings4Sale and after inserting a Listing, I browse to another page.
Again, I hit the BACK button and again, the page can not be found untill refreshed, but also(and here it gets weird)
A duplicate(of the last listing added) is added to the gridview.
Browse away, hit BACK and it happens again. And again. And again.
When I am not logged in, this problem does not occur.
Solution/Workaround: This is where I'm hoping you will be able to help.
Keep up the good work.
