 Portal Sign-Up for DotNetNuke Minimize


Easily Build Your Online Community with All OnyakTech DNN Modules

Download an Evaluation Version from OnyakTech.com

Portal Sign-Up 6.0 makes it easy to setup a community of portals where users can create their own portals and optionally pay you a fee using PayPal subscriptions.  This version makes it possible to allow visitors to create their own sites while preventing them from having administrative access. 

Portal Sign-Up 6.0 Includes:
Portal Sign-Up module, Skin Viewer 2.0, DotNetNuke Debug Module, User Manual and access to minor releases of Portal Sign-Up for one year from www.OnyakTech.com.

Portal Sign-Up has the ability to create Parent and Child portals.  Parent portals are created against a domain, for example: www. freednnsite.com.  Child Portals are created with an alias, for example: www. freednnsite.com/Jessica or www. freednnsite.com/MEDepartment  (Please note these are not real sites, just given for examples)

Try Portal Sign-Up:
A new version of Portal Sign-Up is in the making now and will be posted on this site very soon for you to test.  Until it's made available here, please go to www.OnyakTech.com to download the current evaluation version for use on your own site.

The Non-Administrative Setup feature opens new doors for DNN with a wide range of uses.  It creates the new portal but doesn't add the user to the Administrative Roles.  Instead, Portal Sign-Up creates a role you define and adds the user to that role.  With this feature you can...

  • Offer free sites to new customers with limited administrative abilities.  Once they are ready to upgrade, point them to another instance of Portal Sign-Up configured for PayPal Subscriptions or simply email them a PayPal Subscription link.
  • Host a company intranet and provide employees with the ability to create their own sites while preventing them from administrative abilities in DNN.  This eliminates the need for exhaustive DotNetNuke Administrative Training.
  • Create a web hosting community that's easy to use for everyone, not just DNN savvy customers.  

New Features:

  • Create custom user interfaces for Portal Sign-Up with H2O (www.DNNForms.com) or other DotNetNuke form creation modules that are capable of posting to a web page with Session Variables.  Using this method, you can create your Portal Sign-Up form to look anyway you want.
  • You can now set the the User and Page Quotas.  Use this option to set different levels of pricing for your portals or for custom solutions that limit the user to a single page.
  • If the user is logged in, the user fields in Portal Sign-Up are pre-populated with information from the user profile.
  • New DotNetNuke Schedule Jobs to help keep your system clean of inactive portals and to notify users that their sites have expired.

Existing Features:

  • Now includes the ability to use CAPTCHA to make sure only humans are creating web sites.
  • Non-Administrative Setup: With this option, you can allow visitors to create new portals and prevent them from being an administrator of the site. Use this option in conjunction with well defined Site Templates to give your visitors their very own with site without administrative rights in DotNetNuke.
    • Includes the ability to create a new role that you define and adds the user to that role.  This allows you to control the users rights through the defined role.
  • Optional Skin/Container Selection: You can now hide the Skin/Container selection from the Portal Sign-Up form.
  • Skin Selection: Users can now select the skin they want their site created with.
  • Container Selection: Users can now select the container they want their site created with.
