DotNetNuke (DNN) Development


DotNetNuke is the world’s most widely adopted web content management system (WCM or CMS) and application development platform for building web sites and web applications on Microsoft .NET. Available in Professional and Community Editions, DotNetNuke is a powerful web site CMS that provides simple, browser-based management tools. The tools make it easy for administrators, editors, developers, and designers to build, deploy, and manage all aspects of an interactive web site or web application, including content, layout, membership, features, functionality, site hosting, and security using the advanced content management system (CMS) tools.

DotNetNuke is open source web application and framework which is used to create and developing commercial websites, corporate intranets and extranets, online publishing portals and custom vertical applications.

The DotNetNuke provides security, stability, and support for business-critical applications and is available at a substantially lower cost than alternative proprietary CMS or application development platform solutions.

The DotNetNuke web content management system and application development framework easily fits in to existing computing environments. The core framework includes a series of open APIs that make integration with existing applications simple and straightforward which ensures that businesses can focus on extending features and functionality rather than troubleshooting installations. No rip-and-replace is ever necessary and the DotNetNuke web content management system and application development platform is flexible enough to be used for anything from new applications to minor site modifications to major overhauls to swap outs.

Features and Benefits of the DotNetNuke Platform
Installable Graphic Design
Website look and feel on the DotNetNuke platform is achieved by installing a Skin Package. A Skin is a professional graphic design implemented under strict specifications and packaged as a zip file. Any HTML or Flash design can be implemented as a Skin. A new skin can be installed on a DotNetNuke site within minutes. The appearance of the site can be changed dramatically while existing content and application functionality remains unchanged.

Extendable Application Functionality
DotNetNuke is an expandable Web Application Platform. Third party applications and services can be deployed as DotNetNuke Modules. Modules are pieces of code that each present some functionality to the user, like a personnel contacts list, events calendar, or a list of announcements. Installing a module is a simple administrative task and it does not require programming. Once installed, third party modules are visually integrated with the rest of the site because they use the graphic styles of the current Skin. Modules are completely integrated with the site security and internationalization settings. Modules can be easily added, edited, deleted, restored, moved around on a page, or transferred to other pages
DotNetNuke installation includes over 25 modules. A wide variety of modules, with their own purpose and functionality, are available through DotNetNuke community members and many third-party vendors.

Content Management without Programming
Administrators and authorized users can add pages to their site. New pages automatically appear on the site menu and the site map. Look and feel for the new pages is determined by the current Skin. Adding or changing text content can be as easy as copy and paste. Page content and functionality is build by adding and organizing modules on the site pages.

Installable Language Packs
DotNetNuke is fully localized. Built-in multi-language localization features allow administrators worldwide to easily use and adapt DotNetNuke software for their own use. Over 50 installable Language Packs are available through the DotNetNuke community.

Site Administration
All aspects of the site can be managed through the site settings pages: title of site, search engine description and submission, user welcome messages, logo, background, skins and many other settings can be customized with no programming intervention

Integrated Error Management and Reporting
Built in logging and error reporting infrastructure makes DotNetNuke portals very manageable and reliable. Administrators can monitor site usage and performance and ensure that third-party or custom modules are well integrated and functional.

File Management.
This powerful tool allows administrators the ability to upload files directly from their desktop to their site. Any uploaded file becomes instantly available to be used on the site, or listed in a module that handles documents or file downloads.

Recycle Bin.
Allows users to restore any content, modules, or pages that have been deleted. The deleted item is restored to the location it was deleted from.

Banner Advertising.
Revenue can be generated and managed through the use of banner advertisements. Through the Vendors tab, administrators can easily add vendors and their profile information; upload banners and determine their placement; define number of impressions, cost per impression, or length of ad campaign; track ad views and click-thrus; and define affiliate referrals.

Containers and modules are easily moved within pages by mouse, using drag and drop feature.
