As part of my ongoing series covering the plethora of new features in version 5 of XMod Pro, I've just published one on the new Explorer side panel. Unlike the Manage Forms/Templates/Feeds tabs in version 4, the Explorer is jam-packed with features that make it easy to browse, search, and filter your resources. Of course that's just the beginning. Click an item and it instantaneously opens in a ta
What's New in XMod Pro 5.0 Beta 7 New Features Full-screen editing in the inline editor. The editor you open directly from a page now has a full-screen toggle, so you can work on a view or form without the surrounding page competing for space. Toggle back at any time and the page returns to normal. Right-click context menus in the Explorer. Right-click any form, view, feed, or project to get its f
A new post is up on the blog covering one of the bigger new features in v5: Projects. If you've ever had to hunt through three separate Manage screens to find all the files that belong to one application, this one's for you. Projects let you group your forms, views, and feeds together and open all of them at once with a single click. [XMod Pro 5 Features: Projects](/blog/xmod-pro-5-features-projec
What's New in XMod Pro 5.0 Beta 6 New Features Convert to Custom Form — You can now convert a Form Builder form into a custom (hand-coded) form when you outgrow the visual builder. Available from the form's More Actions menu in the Forms Explorer and a new toolbar button in the Form Builder itself. A conversion dialog suggests a name for the new custom form so your original stays intact. Project d
Just dropping a note that email notifications from the Discuss and Answers pages should be working again. Our conversion from Evoq inadvertently wiped out our SMTP settings but they've been re-instated. If you are still not receiving notifications let us know. Best, Kelly
Tech Radar reported yesterday that researchers have discovered another way to conduct a Cross-Site scripting attack - this time it targets DNN via SVGs. It requires a couple of things to align in order to work, but we recommend you look at the DNN sites you manage and remove SVG from the list of allowed extensions, if you haven't already done so. Hackers ruin all the good things... [Read the Artic
23 years! That's how long DNN has been a part of my life. Shaun released DotNetNuke in 2002 and I started playing with it in 2003. I had no idea that DNN would still be here over two decades later or that a funny little module called XMod would still be helping people solve their problems. As we step into 2026, I find myself thinking less about features and release dates and more about the people
We here at dnndev.com were able to avoid the major outage at AWS a few weeks back partly because we also use Cloudflare. Of course, we weren't so lucky this morning when Cloudflare had a global network outage. Thankfully they were able to result it within a few hours but X, OpenAi, Anthropic and others were taken offline because of it -- on and a little site called dnndev.com was too. Outages happ
If you've noticed a lot of notifications for older releases of XMod Pro in your inbox, I want to apologize. We are actively working not only on XMod Pro, but also this website. As we were trying to correct some descriptions for older versions of XMP in Downloads section, we realized a bit late that notifications were sent every time we made an update. Ooops. We have stopped updating those older de
At the company, we switched providers for transaction email. It looks like dnndev.com, of all sites, did not get switched to the new provider. Thus, notification emails have not been sent. I have updated those settings so notifications should resume now. We're using SendGrid. Please note that some email servers block any email coming from SendGrid IP's. Unfortunately, there's nothing we can do abo
