In this tutorial we demonstrate how to use the Recycle Bin in DotNetNuke.

Any modules or pages that are deleted in your DotNetNuke portal are placed in the recycle bin and are not physically deleted. This allows you to easily recover any accidentally deleted modules or pages and is often a useful feature that is overlooked in DotNetNuke.

We demonstrate how to fully use the Recycle Bin and get the most from this useful feature. We also show you how to permanently delete items to ensure that your Database is regularly cleaned of old content.

In this tutorial we demonstrate how to limit which modules are available to use in the control panel of a DotNetNuke portal (Premium modules).

We show you how to set a module to a premium module and also how to assign a module to a premium module in multiple portals and limit which modules are displayed in the admin control panel.

In this tutorial we walk you through how to configure which modules a non-administrator can add to a page. This applies to user where you have given them edit permissions for a page, but they do not have full administration access privileges. In DotNetNuke 5, we can select which modules a user can add to a page based on their security roles.

In this tutorial we demonstrate how you can take advantage of the new page and module view permission options in DotNetNuke 5 to choose exactly who can view the content on your website.

In the latest version of DotNetNuke, an addition has been made to the permissions area where you now have 3 options available for assigning view and edit permissions. These options are, a user does not have view permissions, a user has view permissions, and a user is denied view permissions, these permission options are available for both the pages and modules in DotNetNuke.

In this tutorial we demonstrate how to reset your Host SuperUser and Administrator accounts in DotNetNuke when you have forgotten the username and password.

Even if you know the username to your Host user account, you will find that if you request the password via email, it will send the email, but for the Host user account, the password will be replaced with asterisks, so this will not help you to recover your details and login.

This Article shows that Email is a powerful tool that can gain you new prospective clients and customers. However, email is also the most abused promotion facility online.

At some point we have all probably received one of the 3 Ps (Pills, Porn and Poker) in our inbox, and it’s because of this ongoing conflict between ‘Spamvertisers’ and (ISPs) Internet Service Providers and in some cases Law Enforcement that it is becoming increasingly harder to ensure your emails are reaching your recipients.
