Add Gallery Server pro to Mojo Portal

Hi,
I'm a newbie in mojoportal and after check some ASP.NET open sources CMS and portal I find mojo is that I need. I work for about 2 years by Dotnetnuke. and use it as my Application framework.
I explore your site but the problem I see it's your development documents and contents are not enough to start development new features. Is there any where that I can find more information ?
for start , i want to add Gallery Server pro (http://www.galleryserverpro.com/ an open source ASP.net Files and images Gallery ) to mojo , this application has some features to integrate by other web applications( as wrote is it's documents).
Using a different membership provider

Gallery Server Pro can be configured to use a different membership provider other than the default SQL provider. I have not yet tested this scenario, so I will only provide a general outline. Let me know if this information is incomplete or inaccurate. The web.config file specifies the provider to use for users, roles, and profiles. By default, Gallery Server Pro uses SqlMembershipProvider for users, SqlRoleProvider for roles, and SqlProvider for profiles. You can change any of these to a provider of your choice by updating the provider configuration in the appropriate section in web.config. If the new provider has custom properties or settings, you may need to modify additional configuration values in web.config. For example, here is the section for the roles: <roleManager enabled="true" defaultProvider="SqlRoleProvider" cacheRolesInCookie="true" cookieProtection="Validation"> <providers> <clear/> <add connectionStringName="GalleryServerDbConnection" applicationName="Gallery Server Pro" name="SqlRoleProvider" type="System.Web.Security.SqlRoleProvider"/> </providers> </roleManager> If, for example, you switch to a file-based role provider, the connectionStringName may not be valid, and you may need to add a new setting specifying the file location for the roles data store. Consult the documentation with the provider for more information.
 

 how can I do that ? I checked your web.config but I dont find any Membership provider there.
Thanks
Mehdi

Re: Add Gallery Server pro to Mojo Portal

You did not look closely enough at Web.config, as there is a membership provider there.

Perhaps also you have not looked closely enough at the documentation or sample projects. There can always be better documentation but many developers have been able to figure out how to get started with what we do have. I do hope to improve the documentation over time, but time is a limited resource and mine is divided many ways. To some extent, the code is the documentation.

See Extending mojoPortal, see the training videos, and study the SampleExternalModule project which is a hello world simple example.

Hope it helps,

Joe
