Hi,

I have used the Joomla! CMS for many years and have been happy with it. But as I now work in .net I thought I should give DNN a go and try and set something up similiar.

I have done a comparison of DNN and Joomla! on CMSMatrix and they seem very similar, so all looks good there.

I have just installed DNN and am having a play around with it, and one thing that seems missing is a way of grouping content like I could in Joomla!. With that, content belonged to a category, which belonged to a section, and you could display content in category lists or section lists for example.

Am I able to do something similar in DNN and if so can anyone help please?

This is a big feature for me, so any help would be greatly appreciated.

Many thanks

Hi,

    Although DNN provides good content management, there is a good module which can solve your purpose. You can view the module http://www.snowcovered.com/Snowcovered2/Default.aspx?tabid=242&PackageID=8534 and purchase if it satisifies your needs.

Thanks

Might look at Ventrien's News Articles, www.ventrian.com.  Even more comprehensive would be Enagage Publish!, www.engagemodules.com.  These are third party modules that do similar to what you're requesting.

Thanks for your replys.

I'm glad you cleared this up, as I was looking for quite some time to find it within DNN. I just thought with it being a CMS that it would be able to manage content well and in a structured manner.

Oh well....
