Hi all,

I've got a fresh DNN install (05.04.00 (107)) and I am using the help module v03.00.02 and I have tried everything to try and get that category module to show up in the settings of the help module to set the Category Module.  I've tried uninstalling/resintalling the module, and I've tried the instructions in this thread. I just can't get it to work.  The dropdown box just keeps showing up empty.  I'm able to create new categories, but when I try to create a new tutorial, the "Category" lable is there, but there isn't any control.  I'm assuming that is also caused by the fact I can't set the category module.

I think the last post on this project was made back in 2008, so I doubt that I'll get a response, but I thought this would be a really handy module so I suppose there's no harm in trying.

Thanks,

Kevin

Whoop.  My bad.  The top posts are sticky and they're the ones that haven't had any replies since '08.

Nope.  Nothing.  If I do get a solution to this problem, I'll post it here.

It seems that it's a problem of Reflection with new version because data are well filled. So, this a code to get data needed directly without reflection process (you must write it in help/settings.ascx) :

<script runat="server">
        Private Sub Page_Load(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles MyBase.Load
            If Not Page.IsPostBack
                    cboModuleID.Items.Clear()
                    Dim objModules As New Entities.Modules.ModuleController
                    Dim intTabID As Integer = CInt(Request.QueryString("tabid"))
                    Dim objModuleController As New DotNetNuke.Modules.Help.CategoryController
                    Dim dr As IDataReader = DotNetNuke.Modules.Help.DataProvider.Instance().GetCategoryModules(TabID)
                While dr.Read
                    dim ModuleID As Integer = cint(dr.GetValue(1))
                    dim ModuleTitle As string = cstr(dr.GetValue(3))
                    cboModuleID.Items.Add(New ListItem(ModuleTitle, ModuleID))
                End While
            End If
        End Sub
</script>
