I have a page in DotNetNuke that is showing the Control Bar to all users even though they should not see it. You can see an example currently at - http://raywalker.csicms.com/ContactUs/tabid/2078/language/en-US/Default.aspx
please let me know if you have any ideas.
The issue on this page (http://raywalker.csicms.com/ContactUs/tabid/2078/language/en-US/Default.aspx) is that you have at least one control where "All Users" have been marked as having "Edit" permissions.
You will want to validate the settings for each module on the page and remove the "Edit" permissions for all users.

I was installing some modules in Drupal 7. Suddenly, the helpful buttons across the top for admin mode disappeared. Can anyone tell me what happened and what I have to do?
I am able to go to {website}/admin and essentially see the same buttons on the page that, I guess, I would see across the top of the page, but I wonder if I am missing out on some functionality.
But even if I still have the functionality, I still can not find the place where I can install new modules, and the system is telling me I need the "views" module to view some content I need to manage.
What do I heed to have enabled in the modules to view these buttons across the top? Is it called "dashboard"?
Also, if I never find a way to see these buttons, where is the page that will let me add a new module?
I do not understand what exactly do you mean. Which buttons? The black admin toolbar?
Dashboard is a module for creating a special page with different admin view blocks.
Anyway, the page for modules administration is available on /admin/modules in Drupal 7.
I think your administrative toolbar is not visible.
Check whether the module named Toolbar is deactivated in admin/modules. If Yes, Turn it on. It will solve your problem.
If not solved, kindly explain your issue.
I am new to DNN and I'm trying to make a site with custom skin.
Skinning is all ok but once the superuser is time out, I couldn't login again.
The login page has disappeared and was being redirected to an empty custom skin page which only shows the header and the footer.
I have tried
localhost:1234/login
localhost:1234/admin
localhost:1234/?ctl=
but neither of them are working.
I tried to search for solutions but none of them seems to work and not relating.
Please show me a way, if I am missing somethings.
You might look at the Admin/Event Viewer page if you happen to still be logged in somehow (or eventlog table in the database) to see if there is an error being thrown, that isn't being displayed (because you aren't logged in).
That may point to the problem.
You might have a problem with a "container" that is missing thus the module isn't being loaded.
A few other things to try, try
localhost:1234/?ctl=login
localhost:1234/?ctl=register
See if anything loads for those.
Last resort, go into the database and NULL out the SKinSRC columns on the TABS table and see if you can find the default site Skin setting in the PortalSettings and make that null or something other than your custom skin.
I have an issue with DotNetNuke where only the admin can see a new page I've added in the main navigation (the page appears in sidebar for all users)
After creating a new page with DotNetNuke, I can manually browse to the page, and all links to it work however it is only visible in the navigation menu when I'm logged in as administrator.
Manually going to the page works fine when not logged in. Include in Menu? is checked (and been toggled) and I've tried all variations of permissions I can think of (which apart from the navigation issue work exactly as I would expect).
I hope this is the correct format I'm still relatively new!
Sounds like you have the page settings set to admin only for view... navigate to the page click on pages>page settings. click on the permissions tab and make sure inherit page settings from parent page is unchecked. Then next to All Users, Registered Users, Subscriber,
Translator (en-US), Unauthenticated Users and Unverified Users make sure there is a green check mark in the view section. Then make sure that page is disabled in advanced settings is unchecked and include in menu in page settings is checked.... Hope this helps... If not try making a new page and copy all the modules from the old one and see if that works
I have a page 'Page 1' to which I have added a custom module called 'Exam Tracker'.
Is there a way to make this module on 'Page 1' always editable, even when 'Page 1' is not in edit mode? May be some configuration, but I have not got it to work.
This would be useful to allow certain users, who cannot edit the page, to be able to edit this module.
So there are a couple of ways you might go about this, but here is probably the easiest way.
Basically you need to do the following, you need to create a hyperlink that goes to your EDIT control for your module. If you put that hyperlink into the VIEW control for your module, anyone will be able to click on it, and will be taken to the EDIT interface.
DotNetNuke will still require that the user has EDIT permissions for the module, if not, they won't be able to access the resulting page generated by the link, they will either be prompted to login, or they will be told they don't have access to that page.
I would recommend that you wrap that link in some sort of permissions check though, that way you don't display it to everyone visiting the page, just the people who should have access to it.
Above is the ribbonbar after I have logged in as a super user. The Admin option next to Host is completely gone
The site is running DNN6, the skin is only in the site portal folder, and it seems that all admin modules and options have gone away. Even the header, which I set in Site Settings (under Admin), went away!
Has anyone else had their admin options completely disappear on them? Is it possible that the skin is messing it up (all other sites use the same _default menu files and they work fine)?
Thanks for any replies.
We've recently had this exact situation occur in one of our DNN sites. It turn out that one of the site's administrators had accidentally renamed the Admin page from within the "Page Management" section (it's easy to see how that could happen). The fix was to go directly to /Admin/Pages.aspx and change the "Page Name" back to "Admin" ... and it will show up in the ribbon bar again.
As a suggestion to DNN developers, I would recommend making the Admin page and its subpages impossible to rename....
Can you check the database to see if those pages exist? What if you try to navigate to http://website/admin.aspx do you see the admin page and all the child pages there?
