DotNetNuke® Project :: Announcements Module

The announcements module is a basic module used for displaying news items on your site. During all DotNetNuke® versions, the module did not change very much, but starting from DNN 3.3.0, some new features have been added, with more to come.

Recently, the module was upgraded to ASP.NET 2.0, and requires DotNetNuke 4.6.2 to run. Currently the features are:

  • Abillity to add multiple announcements in one module
  • Support for ISearchable (Search and RSS)
  • Basic support for IPortable (Module import an export)
  • Items are templatable. Parsing of the templates is done by the DotNetNuke core token replace functionality

 

For the year 2008, the following new features will be implemented:

  • Paging
  • Inline detail view
  • Categories and / tags
  • Enhanced RSS feeds

This is just a short post to inform you about the current status of the announcements module.

Right now we are working hard to get the new 04.00.00 release out as soon as possible (goal is to have this version enter the release tracker next week)

A brief summary of new features:

  • Module will be ported to ASP.NET 2.0, we will be using the WAP model for development
  • Minimal supported DNN version will be DNN 4.6.0
  • Module will have full support for the DNN TokenReplace functionality
  • Module will use IHydratable
  • Module will use IXmlSerializable

Especially the support for core TokenReplace will add a lot of new options in the templating system. It will allow format strings and stuff like that
