ProfileView modification

Hey Joe

I am currently in the process of evaluation of MojoPortal and am loving it so far. I want to make some modifications to the ProfileView but at the same time am concerned that by modifying the current page, I'll be basically setting up myself for problems when you do a new release. Is there anyway I can make mojo point to my own custom ProfileView instead of modifying the one provided?

Regards

Re: ProfileView modification

Hi,

I don't understand your question correctly but you can upgrade to new versions without lost existing data. If modification means modifying source code you can make a separated project and move your code to it.

Hope Helps,

Asad

Re: ProfileView modification

Hi Asad

Thanks for the response. I would actually be modifying the source code. My concern was what would happen in the event a new version of ProfileView was released. Would it mean I'd have to download the newest version of the code and then recompile and upload?

I'm kind of a newbie at this so please excuse me.

Regards

Sean

Re: ProfileView modification

Hi Sean,

I recommend you to install TortoiseSVN on you development machine and be update to new modification of source code from  source repository. You must know that your modification will lost.  I recommend you if you have a nice idea for the ProfileView first discuss it in forum under the Feature Requests we review it and if was a nice public feature we may add it and if it is a custom feature just for your need  offer you a easer way to implement it.

Hope Helps,

Asad

Re: ProfileView modification

Hi,

If you just want to add custom user profile properties, see User Profile Configuration. If you want to do more than that you can make your own ProfileView.aspx page in a custom project and use a post build event to copy it up to Web project replacing the mojoportal version of the page.

You can either always deploy your own custom build with your own custom features or you will have to restore your custom pages after upgrading to our release packages.

Hope it helps

Joe
