How do I modify the source code of a pre-packaged module (events mod)? 

Hi,

I am slightly confused here.  I am new to the DotNetNuke community, but not new to ASP.net 2.0 web development.  I have installed DNN on a local IIS server for testing.  On that install I put the Events module (source code version).  I simply used the module maintenance site util to install the module.

Now, there is a tiny change I want to make to the eventsList.ascx file (to fix a minor bug).  So, I make the change and re-build the site.. but my change is not reflected.  So I tried the old fail safe method of putting a response.write in the beginning of the file, and that also has no effect.  The project builds just fine, it's simply appears not to be using my updated version of the file???

The file in question is located in the DesktopModules/Events folder.  Is this the correct place to edit such files?

Thanks in advance for helping me, I have a feeling it will be something simple that I am un-aware of...

Re: How do I modify the source code of a pre-packaged module (events mod)? 

Hi,

This is the exact same problem I'm having...  Did you manage to sort it out?

Also, would the bug you're trying to fix by any chance be when you click on the calendar day which has an event on it you get "This day has no events" even when it does?

Cheers,

Emma

Re: How do I modify the source code of a pre-packaged module (events mod)? 

Hi Jay,

any changes made to the ascx files under DoesktopModules/Events folder are reflected on module behaviour. If not, please check for any caching issues. Changes made to the source code, instead, need to be recompiled in the respective assemblies, in the bin folder of your DNN installation. To do this check the project's references and the output folder to match that, and rebuild the project.

Best regards,
Dario Rossa
