Addons are installed as regular modules (DNN takes care of correct placement of files and running of SQL scripts that way). What errors did you have installing the navigator addon?

Peter

I did install Navigator as a standard module, which went fine. I was then attempting to determine how to get the navigator tree to be visible along with the DMX module. So I added it to various panes on the same page with DMX, all with immediate errors, which cleared up as soon as I deleted the Navigator module from the pane.

So, I installed it correctly, but perhaps I am trying to add the add-on incorrectly, or perhaps this is a DNN4 .NET 2.0 issue?

I will recreate error situation if that would be helpful to you.

Thanks, Peter.

Rob

Rob,
I'm not excluding that it is a DNN 4 issue. This has only been released for DMX/DNN 3.2 until now. If you have some info from the error log I'd be happy to look at it.
Peter

Peter, here is the error when I add the module to a page with a DMX module:
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
A critical error has occurred.
MinMax persistance type of cookie requires a ModuleId
-------------------------------------------------------------------------

Also, are you talking about the module upload log (shown below) or another log?

It was the first I was looking for (i.e. the "MinMax persistance type of cookie requires a ModuleId" message). I will need to examine this in a DNN4 installation myself. The first signs are not good as 'min/max' would suggest it has something to do with the plus-minus symbols in front of the folder (although it beats me why a moduleid is required). The plus-minus is something which is handled by an external component and not DMX itself. Are you absolutely positive it could not be a skin issue? MinMax is also found in the min-max functionality of collapsing a container.

Peter

I am using default DNN4 skins during this testing, so I wouldn't think that would be an issue. Is there other information I could provide, or something else I could test to determine this? I am adding it the Navigator module to a pane on the same page as the DMX module, is this correct? Does it matter which pane?

Rob

This is how it should be. The navigator determines the other DMX modules on the page and links to them.
