Re: How to get portal path from controller? 

Michael Said
Did I misunderstand? I was thinking that the module's Controller class would not know what portal it was being called from.

John Replies
That depends on how it is being used, but the above property should work in most cases.

I think I need to clarify

I need the path in

Sub ImportModule(ByVal ModuleID As Integer, ByVal Content As String, ByVal Version As String, ByVal UserId As Integer) Implements DotNetNuke.Entities.Modules.IPortable.ImportModule

I need the path in order to export/import the module contents, because my module saves files to the hard disk that the user uploads, and those files must be imported/copied to the new module as well.

Come to think of it, there is also a property that is already mapped to a physical location:

PortalSettings.HomeDirectoryMapPath

I'm using dnn 4.5.5 and I don't seem to have that property :(

Re: How to get portal path from controller? 

PortalSettings.HomeDirectoryMapPath should be there in 4.5.5 and it should work for ImportModule.

If you are not inheriting from PortalModuleBase then you'll need to get the PortalSettings from the HttpContext

Thanks, I was not inheriting from PortalModuleBase, works fine now.
