These are the options that you see on Host Menu, when you just install. Your production might have more depending on if any additional stuff are installed or not<\/p>\n

Common Settings:<\/strong>
\nDashboard
\nExtensions
\nFile Management
\nHost Settings
\nSite Management<\/p>\n

Advanced Settings:<\/strong>
\nConfiguration Manager
\nDevice Detection Management
\nHTML Editor Manager
\nLists
\nSchedule
\nSQL
\nSuperUser Accounts
\nVendors<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

So, you can configure for automatic update and check for the availability of updates<\/p>\n

\n
\n

<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

\"\"<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n
\n

<\/a><\/p>\n

<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n

<\/div>\n
You can see what Critical, Moderate and Low security mean<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
As it came along the Update<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
The steps:<\/div>\n
Usually you copy\/replace the new files. usually the dll files will have most of the changes.<\/div>\n
More details:<\/div>\n
You need to take a backup of your existing site and database.<\/div>\n
Modify your web.config file set autoupdate to false<\/div>\n
copy all the files to your current site<\/div>\n
the go to<\/div>\n
www.example.com\/install\/install.aspx?mode=upgrade and follow the process.<\/div>\n
another strategy might be<\/div>\n
create a site only for update like<\/div>\n
update.example.com based on your existing site and database (still keep some backup)<\/div>\n
then copy all the new files to this update version<\/div>\n
then go the install page<\/div>\n
after install check if everything works<\/div>\n
then you can modify IIS to make this update site to be the live\/production site.<\/div>\n
let’s show you an internet resource on this…<\/div>\n
This is a good resource on upgrading DNN<\/div>\n
http:\/\/www.dnnsoftware.com\/wiki\/upgrading-dotnetnuke<\/div>\n
we are upgrading<\/div>\n
anyway…<\/div>\n
Just some URL rewrites, in PHP\/Apache you do this using url-rewrite in .htaccess file<\/div>\n
So, you can see from, Host->advanced settings you can change the following<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
If you did not use this feature of DNN before, probably you do not know that DNN has these features; however, you might already used similar features in other CMSes or in other software. you know some without knowing; just needed to know DNN uses those…<\/div>\n
sometimes, the difference between theory and practice:<\/div>\n
theory teaches you all the different possible stuff, where practical you just need to know what are the stuff from theory\/general stuff are used in the particular technology: some truth, some false in the above statement..never mind…theory is evil…<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
\n
\n

Friendly URL Settings<\/a><\/h2>\n<\/div>\n

Proxy Settings<\/a><\/h2>\n

SMTP Server Settings<\/a><\/h2>\n

Performance Settings<\/a><\/h2>\n

jQuery Settings<\/a><\/h2>\n

CDN Settings<\/a><\/h2>\n

Client Resource Management<\/a><\/h2>\n

Membership Management<\/a><\/h2>\n

Login IP Filters<\/a><\/h2>\n

Search Settings<\/a><\/h2>\n<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
Ip filtering can be a god idea, if your site is internal only…<\/div>\n
also, you can block IPs where attacks originated from…a range or specific<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
apparently lucene is used as search.<\/div>\n
Lucene is available as search engine for Drupal and other CMSes as well<\/div>\n
including Kentico..<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
Using site management, you can create and configure multiple sites….<\/div>\n
these new sites can use the same database<\/div>\n
you can utilize users : specific to this site also users can be shared among multiple sites..<\/div>\n
check yourself…how and is it possible really…<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
So you can see the extensions used<\/div>\n
and you can configure\/change settings for these…<\/div>\n
So you can see available extensions such as login\/authentication through twitter\/facebook or similar<\/div>\n
you can also search and install third party extensions….<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
Dashboard -> showing some info<\/div>\n
making the info public is not a great idea<\/div>\n
huge security risk…<\/div>\n
for me this is a demo, dummy, I will remove the site anyway…still…not good..<\/div>\n
I should not tell all the whys here…<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
nothing, some user and role management on dnn<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
http:\/\/www.dnnsoftware.com\/Content\/Dnn.Platform\/Documentation\/Using%20the%20Control%20Panel\/Admin%20Console\/Security%20Roles\/Understanding%20Role%20Based%20Access.html<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
for admins and host account, this feature is ok. write SQL and run<\/div>\n
but do not provide end users similar feature…can be dreadful<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
Schedule: different backend task scheduling for DNN<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
you see the DNN provided classes or classes used by DNN<\/div>\n
you can use these classes in your code to implement some DNN like functionality<\/div>\n
you can also check if a module use make more sense or not<\/div>\n
or you might be able to reuse existing dnn code<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
You could use other editors Telerik\/RAd\/CKeditor…<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
anyway, I can stop here..<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
I can create another video and short-note on Admin menu<\/div>\n
and also another on user management in general…<\/div>\n
you are also welcome to create and send to us to post on this site or on our youtube channel<\/div>\n
