I installed DotNetNuke community edition and I extracted it in C:\inetpub\wwwroot folder. Then I added an application in IIS manager.

I tried to open http:\\localhost\DotNetNuke and it  works fine.

What I need to know is :

How  can I modify this website in visual studio 2008?

I also downloaded some modules and I placed them in C:\Documents\Visual Studio 2008\Templates\ProjectTemplates\Visual C#, but I couldn't found them in the templates when I first create a web.

I chose file-  new - website .Then I changed the language to visual basic.

However, when I installed "Christoc.com_C__Compiled_Module" provided in the training session, It appeared in the template section but when I built it,  I got an error that the namespace "DotnetNuke  " could not be found.

Any suggestions??

What if I want to add new features that are not available in the extensions. Can I great a web using C# in visual studio and then import it in the website?

I tried to open  DotNetNuke locally, but it shows me at the home page the word "Sponsors" and when I click login it does not show the text boxes to enter my user name and password. It was working a while ago. What is the problem?

What if 3 people should design the website, is there a way to share it?

I am using DNN community edition and when a user logs in I want to execute a small peice of code when the LoginButton is clicked..i.e. LoginButton_Click event handler. Can I no edit the Login Module's code in VS 2008?
