September 2009

In this Free tutorial we demonstrate how to install a standard module to DotNetNuke 5.

There are many modules available to extend the functionality of your DotNetNuke website, some of the modules require you to purchase them from websites, such as snowcovered and there are also many free modules available as well.

In this tutorial we demonstrate how to download and install the digFlash module, which allows you to place Flash SWF files within your DotNetNuke pages.

The module is available as a free download from www.dignuke.com

We demonstrate how to install a module to DotNetNuke as a Host Super User using the Install Extensions method and also how to auto install a module. The auto install method allows you to upload the module via FTP to your DotNetNuke installation files, enter a URL and then DotNetNuke will auto install the module without the need for you to use the Install Extensions method.
