After a few months of development we are proud to announce the release of Engage: Publish 4.3 (version #4.3.6 to be exact) We've been working on Publish for the past few months squashing bugs and adding some very cool new features including improved administration interfaces, new display options, better performance and many more! For a list of the release notes from this version check out this page. You can also check out Engage: Publish's feature list by visiting this link. Current owners of Publish (that are still within 1 year of their original date of purchase) can download the new release from our Engage: Publish page at www.engagemodules.com. You can also purchase a copy of Engage: Publish from our site. A few quick notes: The AjaxControlToolkit requirement has been moved up to 10618, instead of 10301 as with previous version of Publish. Publish will not currently run on DNN 4.6.0 due to a breaking change in 4.6.0 that we've discovered. If you have a requirement that Publish functions in 4.6.0 immediately please let us know, we can recompile a compatible version easily. The 4.3 Version of Publish is only available on EngageModules.com this week, in a week or two we'll have it posted on SnowCovered and the DotNetNuke Marketplace. If you have any issues with 4.3 please post them here in the EngageModules.com Publish Forum. Posted from...
Engage Software has just launched another website. The new site is a portal for The Ticket Guys (www.theticketguys.com). It is built using the DotNetNuke portal framework, though we had to develop new modules and enhance existing modules to get all of the desired functionality on the site. So if you're looking for St. Louis Cardinals, St. Louis Rams, or Boston Red Sox tickets be sure to check The Ticket Guys. Some of the modules in use on the site include the following: A new Content Rotator Module that we will be making available for purchase at www.engagemodules.com next month. We're also using a module to offer Live Chat services on the website. The shopping cart is a fully custom solution also utilizing web services. Other enhancements to the site include customization to the DNN Search as well as new advanced search features. There is also a custom newsfeed ticker implementation using some ComponentArt controls. Finally we have setup custom skin objects to manage the printer friendly and send to a friend functions on the site.

I've had too many clients come to me and ask how they can search through all of their Text/HTML modules on a portal to look for links that point to their development URL rather than their production URL. Instead of telling them they had to manually look at every page to find all instances of these invalid links I created a new module, available from www.engagemodules.comEngage: F3 allows you to quickly and easily search through all Text/HTML modules installed on a site, generate a report of links found, and directly links to the edit control for each of those modules to allow you to correct the invalid links.Above and beyond the use case where you are searching for a URL, you can use Engage: F3 to search for any string within any Text/HTML module on your site.Future enhancements will include the ability to search through content of other modules, such as our Engage: Publish module, as well as the ability to search and replace all instances of a string without having to manually edit each entry.Best of all Engage: F3 is free! You can get it now from www.engagemodules.com, you can also download the C# Source Code for the module. Posted from...
