Hi,

I've started learning DNN 7 and I wanted to learn module development for it. I've also go the membership but now I realise that this site doesn't have much resource to study module development using DNN 7. Features like DAL 2 API, etc.
Also, I was not able to find a good explanation to make custom modules like having CRUD actions. It's just a simple HTML custom module that supports DNN 6 but no resource related to DNN 7.

Can anyone point me in the right direction as I may be wrong?

Start over at dnnsoftware.com, and look in the Video Library and the Blog areas. Chris Hammond's tutoral series on the Task Manager Module is a classic. Also look for Clint Patterson's blog series what walks through development of a module. There are others, but I would star with those.

Visit Chris Hammond's website (christoc.com) for some tutorials and links to his module development templates. These are ideal for somone beginning with module development. I believe that Chris also has an updated set of tutorials for the Task Manager.

Speaking of that, I'd recommend going the DAL2 route. Not only is it modern, but it's a sleek interface to the database, simplifies CRUD operations, and I find it much easier to comprehend and use. Chris also puts a lot of boilerplate and sample code in the templates, so it's easy to get moving.

I'd be remiss if I didn't point out Mitchel Sellers book on DNN Module Development. It's a few years old, but is worth reading and having as a resource. Mitchel is also an author of the new DNN7 book that will be published on the 26th. That's also a good book to have (the DNN4 and DNN5 books are also good and mostly relevant).

Our friends at DNNHero.com (also a subscription site) cover module development thoroughly. The tutorials there are by Scott Wilkinson and are well constructed and comprehensive.

Also, keep up with the DNN Blogs. You will quickly learn that DNN is evolving rapidly and will be embracing MVC, SPA, and other modern tools. Any module that you develop today will be compatible moving forward. But, within the next few years you'll need to do some recoding if they are to work with future versions of DNN. You'll have lots of time, tooks, and resources if you hang out in all of the places I've mentioned!

You can find a lot of great DNN7 module development tutorials at http://www.dnnhero.com/DotNetNuke-V...evelopment and http://www.dnnhero.com/course/advan...evelopment

Hi, thanks for pointing out those resources. However, I was expecting to get these kind of tutorials here as I've paid for the subscription service of this site. I'm quite disappointed to see the lack of DNN 7 topics here. The current ones just touches the basics of setting up a DNN 7 site.
When you say friends at dnnhero.com, is there any benefit I can take to view their tutorials being a member of this site?

By friends, I mean that they are good people, have great tutorials, and are friends (I happen to know them personally).
