New Hosting Partner This site has migrated to a new VPS generously provided by PeoplesHost. They also provide the mojoPortal project with a generous affiliate program so if you click one of our ads before purchasing hosting and you keep it for at least 60 days, we get a nice commission. I have also tested their shared hosting myself and found it to be quite good, so if you are in need of new hosting give them a try. New Open Source Projects in the Works As you may know, I am no longer actively developing mojoPortal. After 12 years, the ASP.NET WebForms technology that mojoPortal is built on is going out of style in favor of better, more modern frameworks, and there has been a corresponding decline in the popularity of mojoPortal so that it is no longer possible for me to build a successful business around it. mojoPortal is still a very feature rich product and many people do still use it, but it is not a platform for the next 15 years of the web. I am still maintaining it for any security issues if such issues come up, and there will be occasional minor updates such as this one, so if you are using it and it meets your needs there is no need to abandon it or rebuild existing sites. It is very user friendly and people may even find it useful for new projects in the near term. But for the long term, I am focusing my efforts on new things. ASP.NET Core and .NET Core I'm very excited about the brand new frameworks from Microsoft that are currently in preview but will reach a 1.0 release later this year. These new frameworks support modern patterns that have been evolving in the industry over many years, they are fast, lightweight, and cross platform. Yes, cross platform, as in officially supported by  Microsoft on windows, linux, and osx! Those of you who have been around the mojoPortal community may remember that cross platform was an important goal for mojoPortal for a long time, but this goal was hinged upon the use of Mono, but  Mono never really proved to be a reliable platform for mojoPortal at least for production and it took a lot of work trying to work around things that were either buggy or not implemented in Mono, so after many years of trying I gave up on it. Fast forward to today, and the founder of Mono is now working at Microsoft, and Mono has evolved as a very useful platform for mobile devices, but with the new .NET Core framework, we no longer need it as a web platform. It feels to me like we are in the beginning of a renaissance and I am ecstatic about the direction and openness of the new Microsoft. I've been working very hard learning the new frameworks, letting go of old familiar patterns and embracing new modern ones. I have a number of new open source projects I'm working on that I hope you will take a look at and keep an eye on, though they are all in the early stages right now. cloudscribe Core cloudscribe Simple Content cloudscribe Simple Authentication cloudscribe Navigation cloudscribe Pagination cloudscribe Metaweblog cloudscribe Syndication If you would like to be kept in the loop on these projects, at some point we will have a newsletter, so please send an email to [email protected]. These days all the cool projects also have a gitter chat room, if you want to ask informal questions about my cloudscribe projects or just be social, stop by and say hello. Since I do need to make a living, I'm also working on a set of commercial, closed source projects that I plan to make compatible with my cloudscribe open source projects, but I'm planning to build them in a way to be easy to integrate with almost any web application built on ASP.NET Core. The modular nature of the new frameworks makes that vision possible. I'm closely watching the progress also of Orchard2 as something I would like my products to be compatible with and something that I may use for larger projects with advanced requirements.  Joe Audette  ...

mojoPortal 2.4.0.9 is now available on our download page. What's New? Upgraded to the new more stable version of Ajax Control Toolkit version 15.1 which is now maintained by DevExpress. CKEditor upgraded to version 4.4.7 from 4.4.6 TinyMCE ... [More] upgraded to 4.1.9 from 4.1.7 added basic flat rate shipping price to products in WebStore - by Joe Davis of i7MEDIA added config settings to control whether non download webstore orders require authentication added option to FlexMenu to control rendering of href when page is not clickable fixed bug incorrect redirecturl if using ConfirmRegistration.aspx fixed bug in poll - incorrect handling of utc vs local time for isactive fixed bug where ssl redirects were not correctly detecting proxy server settings fixed a bug that prevented shared files uploads when using an ssl proxy server fixed bug in list/link folder sites with relative file urls fixed bug in FlexMenu when using the ChildNodesPerUl option and a page is hit which shouldn't be in the menu, it's still counted fixed bug custom profile dropdowns did not support required fixed bug in webstore where shipping panel was not shown on confirm order page when cart had shipped items fixed unlocalized string on register page Note that there are corresponding compatibility updates for each of our add on products. Existing customers can get the updated versions of our add on products by logging in to this site as the user with the purchase history, click the "My Account" link at the top of the page and then click "Order History". As with all releases of mojoPortal, when upgrading you should make sure you use the new Web.config file and restore any customizations such as the machine key from your old one. This is especially important for this release because there are quite a few changes and additions in Web.config and some of them are subtle such as control declarations for ajaxcontroltoolkit which changed only by case of a few letters. UPDATE 2015-05-08 This new version of AjaxControlToolkit seems to be broken in medium trust web hosting, I have reported the problem here. Anyone hosted in Medium Trust should not upgrade to this version of mojoPortal until this is resolved. UPDATE 2015-05-11 We were able to implement a workaround to get past the medium trust error. We have now uploaded a new package on our codeplex page named mojoportal-2-4-0-9-mssql-net45-mediumtrust-deploymentfiles.zip which is pre-configured to work in medium trust hosting. There were some changes in code to support this configuration so mojoPortal.Web.dll was modified, Web.config was modified, and AjaxControlToolkit.StaticResources.dll had to be deleted from the bin folder to complete the workaround.
