The latest release of the DNN News Module version 03.03.03 (Beta) has been released to all of the News beta testers.  Here is a list of the fixes in this latest update:

 

17 Category Edit. Publishing format drop downs should go in the following order: RSS 2.0, RSS 1.0, RSS 0.91, RSS 0.9, Atom.

18 DNN3.1.1 Error occurs when trying to add a feed, category or channel

19 Edit Newsfeed. After addition of the url as a source there is a page: "Server Error in 'DNN<version>' Application. Runtime error."

27 All pagination shows 'Page 0 of 1' results when there are no results.

32 Edit Newsfeed: After clicking "Cancel" btn existed feed in the module is disappears and then after clicking "Update" btn feed again appears.

33 Feed List: 'Return' btn should be instead 'Cancel' btn.

36 Edit Channel. It's impossible to add a new channel without category.

37 Edit Channel: Portal type should default to whatever is selected in the Channel List when clicking "Add new channel".

38 Localization: missing keys or existing keys but not used in the code.

40 The first channel entered has an ID of 0.

42 Default view. The page should be of the same size as default when trying to change a module title.

82 Feed List: empty page appears after clicking on " [2], Next, Last "

84 Channel List, Feed List: the next page is not displayed, if eleventh channel (feed) has been created.

85 When you add more than one instance of the News Module, if you change the Newsfeed Settings for one, it changes the other instances as well.

 

This list represents updates between the 03.03.02 and the 03.03.03 beta.  There have been many bug fixes beyond this list as well between version 03.03.02 and the last public announcement I made regarding 03.03.00.  I have updated Gemini (support.dotnetnuke.com), which was long overdue, and added the remaining known issues with this version.  You should expect to see an updated 03.03.04 version before too long.  I am expecting this next version to be solid enough to be considered a release client.  It will of course have to go through the standard core review and release process first, which it has not yet done.

 

I would also like to welcome Peter Brems to the team.  Peter sent in the contributor agreement and will be added as an official member of the team shortly.  Thanks again to everyone that has helped out with the testing.

 

Thanks,

Josh

Re: DNN News Feeds 03.03.03 Beta

What I would really like to see is the option to add multiple feeds in one single instance of the newsfeed.

Ideally you would be able to display it something like with a the maximum item count being applied per feed
RSS feed title 1
item 1

item 2

item 3

RSS feed title 2
item 1

item 2

item 3

Thanks,

Marc

Re: DNN News Feeds 03.03.03 Beta

Good suggestion. There is the ability to aggregate feeds in this upcoming version, as well control the max # of articles that show on the screen, but not at the individual feed level. I have added this enhancement to Gemini:

Re: DNN News Feeds 03.03.03 Beta

How do I become a beta tester? I am very interested in the new version of this module because I am using AD Authentication with my intranet site and therefore cannot use the news module to provide RSS feeds for my annoucements, faqs, etc. From what I've read, it looks like that bug has been fixed in the forthcoming version. Thanks for your hard work... how can I try out the beta on my test site? - Mike
