Today we would like to release an enhanced version 4.3 for Ultimate DNN Blog Module – SunBlogNuke. Please feel free to get it for upgrade. In this building we enhanced theme mechanism with providing more ways to customizations, in the mean time it began to support EditArea (the code editor in a textarea) to highlight the theme view files and now you can easily deal with those customizations. For example, from the v4.3 you are able to take control of the layout or UI of your customized theme, such as bookmark, vote and related posts  section. The awesome sample is the tutorial - Integrate SexyBookmarks into DNN Blog.  As usual, the complete details for all of the changes can be found in the Release Notes.

Major Highlights in v4.3:

  • ENH – Supported EditArea (the code editor in a textarea) to highlight the theme view files and now you can easily deal with those customizations.
  • ENH - Refactored styles for all themes.
  • ENH - Enhanced theme mechanism with providing more ways to customizations.
  • ENH - Supported imageurl/icon for Categories Widget.
  • FIX - Fail to fall back '_default/commentview.ascx' when the comment view file of the current theme does not exists.
  • FIX - The 'Print' link opens a blank page in the browser and the resource cannot be found.
  • FIX - Enhanced digg feature and made it work again.
  • Lots of other fixes & enhancements.

NOTE: As with any release, we recommend you perform a complete file and database backup before performing any upgrade on a production website and that you first conduct a trial upgrade on a staging version of the site. Following these guidelines will ensure that you are able to recover should any unforeseen problems arise during the upgrade process.

Note that some issues may occur if your original version of SunBlogNuke is lower version, like 3.x, and you've developed your customized theme. Please refer to the tutorial - Must-Read Note for SunBlogNuke v4.x and follow the instructions. Hope it makes sense.

You can get it here. Blog your way and enjoy life. :)
