Hi Peter, When you have an instance of DMX3 with a Root Collection which is different from the Portal Root, and renamed (say: "2007 - 2008 Downloads") - during a bulk import from the Service page, the first option in the Collection dropdown will say "2007 - 2008 Downloads (Portal Root)". This is confusing to users as it indicates that if they import to that location their files will end up in the Root Collection specified for this instance of the module. The first item in the list would more correctly be the name of the root collection for the entire install of DMX. Is this an active bug? If not, do you have a workaround in the meantime? Thanks, Nick

Yep, that page is only visible to Admins/Module editors. (the problem occurs for Administrator accounts and Module Editors)

About Bring2mind

Bring2mind is the company of Peter Donker, a DotNetNuke enthusiast who has been involved with the platform from the very beginning. At the same time as the market for modules emerged, he realized there was no good document management solution for the platform yet and he set about creating this. In part he based the module on his experience with other document management systems he used while working as a researcher. His module, Document Exchange, was an instant success and has since become the premier document management solution for DotNetNuke. In 2004 he created Bring2mind as a vehicle for the module and is one of the few successful businesses solely based on a DotNetNuke product.
