hi.

it's some years I'm using mojoPortal as my only portal, building my apps on it (I also have some experience with java. but I am more used to .net)

trust me, it's greatly well structured, and it's easy to debug, and it's easy to code against.

you just need to learn some basics to find out how things work, and sometimes at start it gets a little bit frustrating when you see something, but can't find it's code. but after getting used to it, it will be easy.

the only problem you may face will be you will need to be a good designer. but in codes, Joe has done everything near perfection.

I suggest you start by seeing videos Joe has put in documentation section.

Hi,

    It is my honor to receive Mr. Joe and paiman's reply and teaching.

To Mr. Joe:

    Because it is strange that I cann't get the source code by totoriseHG no matter I use wire lan or not, so I downloaded the source code "mojoportal-src44889d10a626.zip" from the download link on page http://mojoportal.codeplex.com/SourceControl/changeset/view/2dd05b8c838b

   And would you like to confirm whether my this download is including all of your source?  Other info for your this confirmation are:

there are 5 .sln files including of mojoportal.sln and mojoportal.net35.sln, and I use mojoportal.sln to debug your project(I set IIS Express 7.5's point to the web folder and can directly change .aspx files under web folder).  You can have a look of my website www.gloCalHelp.com(abroad) or gloCalHelp.com(domestic), but I am sorry it is only Chinese now.

   And Is my debugging by using mojoportal.net35.sln correct(with IIS's document point change)? When I debug, I can find that your design is so incredible that you even dividing the presentation layer of .aspx into piecies, and I cann't find the piecie of picture validation in contact function  exists in  database table of mp_ModuleSettings. How can I add the piecie of picture validation function in login and register pages?

    Or, as my asking title, can you give me a more detali mojo architecture flows introduction than just the 3 layers introduction?

    By the way, as my understanding, even if I couldn't customize features on exsiting mojo not-real .aspx pages, I can use codesmith or other

code generating tool to generate a real page to replace mojo's some pages(by using mojo's administrating console), am I right? for example, you can see my website's default page is changing to a new mobiles friendly .htm pages.

    And I have other following questions, would you please answer me to make me really fall in love with mojo from now on to not only working with Java ?

1st question is this question's title, or would you like to answer me: besides enable debug level in log4j.config, how can I enable the log of your real SQL script and see, how can I see where you put your localization Chinese but not in Resource.Designer.cs .

2nd question: If I suggest mojo to other companies, can you give me a background technique support on security or others with some fees, and how much is the fee?

3rd question: Although I don't use the ...deployment files to debug, can you make me sure I can use your mojoportal.sln to debug your mojoPortal.Web.dll, mojoPortal.Business.dll and mojoPortal.Data.dll?

4th question: Because I am more familiar with Java, so maybe I will run a site including of your mojo and Java in the future, and even I have

install "Mono 2.10.8 for Windows", I cann't extract the linux rpm package(not install linux now) to get the requiring mono-mod or others,

and I cann't run mojo in Apache now, would you like to give me a seperate download to run apache on Windows XP(maybe I will run in Linux in the future but not now)?

5th question: Because I have no time to fix IIS 6's bugs on XP to support mojo, although I have temporally enable IIS express 7.5  to support external multi domains' access, is it really true that IIS express 7.5 is not a production server(cause it cannot supprt external IP's traffic access, and it can only run in administrator account to cause more easily potential infected)?

6th question: do you have other suggestions to make money on website and net? Is there a possible income if I help mojo such as holding a mojo-source reposity in China for fast download and mojo's fast expanding in Asia? such as help mojo to do a Chinese localization or Japanese localization or help to fix bugs and upgrade a function for mojo in the future?

Mr. Joe and other mojo team members are my admiring pioneers and teachers, hope that I can be a good member of you. Maybe I can make mojo's java version with the genius  generating technology in a long future. And I am going to keep at least around 1% of my earning for Mojo from now on from my website.

To Mr. Paiman:

       Thank you very much for your encoragement.  I have been a good designer on Java for several years but not on .Net.

>>>but can't find it's code. but after getting used to it, it will be easy.

If you cann't find it's code, can you find it's function or module's enable configuration? otherwise, how can you customize mojo's features and getting used to it? otherwise, we can only throw the good mojo feature away and write our own .net feature, isn't it?

Can you tell me the detail mojo flows or how to quickly customize a feature in mojo? I can help you with others, such as good practise on Java, Oracle, Chinese, Japanese or others.

What are you using mojo for? a website or a member of Mojo?

Bye.

Hi, Mr. Paiman,

To Mr. Paiman,

Thank you for your guiding, I will check the videos, and now I am still very confused with these:

1, Even I have browse Mojo's API document, I cann't find a <mp:Panel-tag list api just like Java, so it may be difficult

to use mp tag to develop a new function,  do you know where is the <mp:Panel, <mp:SiteLabel or <asp tag list API?

2, do you have apache+mono-server to host asp.net ? can you send me the necessary files?

3, are you still  not able to code in mojo but can only use mojo's administrating console to customize a new feature?

Thank you ahead

TO Mr. Joe,

      Many thanks to Mr. Joe to self reply to me when you are so busy, I will start to see the training videos and documents, but I think

if there is a <mp:Panel, <mp:SiteLabel or <asp tag list API, it may be fast for a beginner to use mojoPortal.

and would you like to send me the apache+mono-server manual install package for hosting mojoPortal in windows XP?

and get out of java world. API documentation is not used extensively here.

search the internet for your questions and you fill find the answer sooner, or ask it in the forum.

I didn't like java so much, because it was not easy to find answer of the questions in the internet by a simple search, but it is for .net
