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.

Back to Community: dnndev.com's New Foundation As part of our XMP v5 rollout, we've been making a lot of changes to dnndev.com — some visible, like the new Answers and Discuss pages, and plenty more behind the scenes. XMP 5 introduces a lot of new features, but its primary design goal has been to improve the customer experience. Most of what's new is quality of life: easier visual form design, sma

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
Well, it's March 31st, the last day of Quarter 1 2026. If you've read some of my other posts, you'll know that I was targeting Q1 as the time frame for a release. So, I thought it would be helpful to let you know where things stand. v5 is feature complete We've not only rewritten the Admin UI from scratch, we've added a bunch of features in the process. All of those are finished and we're not doin
At the end of January, I mentioned that as part of our move away from Evoq and back to DNN Community, we'd be rewriting a number of Evoq modules using XMod Pro — eating our own dogfood, as it were. We replaced the Answers module with an XMP version on February 11th, and yesterday (March 11th) we released the XMP version of Discuss. As with Answers, the necessity of conversion became an opportunity
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.
