I created a custom search module using DMX.Services.SearchController.Search() for the meat of the processing. The module is working well, but just noticed that file permissions are not being observed, as the search results allow all files to be returned even if permissions for all users has been removed. I was originally thinking the permissions were accounted for with the Search method, but I guess not. Any help on resolving this issue would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

There are two parts to search: Search and GetSearchResults. You first set the search through the former which you've done. The GetSearchResults is in the DataProvider (i.e. Data.DataProvider.Instance.GetSearchResults) or you can use GetGridContents in the search controller which returns a dataview of that data. Peter

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.
