I think whoever wants to learn about the DNN 7 UX guidelines, while the UX pages get updated, to see how DNN 7 works now. If you have specific UX questions, you can ask in the forum.

I have never seen the left red border to indicate a required field anywhere on the web so I don't believe it's a UX standard. The star is. A red full border is more suitable to indicate the UI element(s) having errors after submitting the form.

 Tony, I fully agree.

The main problems with DNN 6 and 7 (at least regarding to UX) that it was relying on single persons in charge at DNN Corp without review/pre-release feedback by the community. I am sure, otherwise stupid decisions like the module dim effect or limited productivity of the control panel would never had happened.

Anyone who needs web/mobile/desktop UX advice can post a question at ux.stackexchange.com and a UX expert can help. It's a very good Q&A site, like any stackexchange site. And the people working on the UI for DNN should visit it too and get some UX feedback. DNN uses some odd UX behavior which are unique to DNN.

 Actually the release cycle for DNN 6 where the changes were incorporated was substantial with a number of betas (see http://www.dnnsoftware.com/community-... for some background), so people had plenty of time to comment. Concerns about items such as the module dim effect were not logged until many months later.
