So I've downloaded it...now what do I do with it??

How do I put it on a page? How do I put another module into the content pane? How can I invoke it to appear with an action or link in another listx module? Is there a readme or anything I've missed?

it is a DNN container.

all you have to do is install it like a container, apply it to any module you are all set.

I have installed the widjet as a container but when applied as any modules container, the Wedjet is shown but the actions are not functional, I cannot drag it around nor can it's color or be changed. I end up having to delete it from the page. What am I missing?
Thanks in advance.

Have attempted in a DNN 04.05.01 and a DNN 03.03.03 both get the same results. this would be a nice touch but is not critical.

I had a similar problem. If you are using Wedjet in a child application site.. localhost/dotnetnuke... you need to change the references in the CSS file to reflect your web application path ie

/dotnetnuke/Portals/...

Also, the wedjet.js file may not have been installed when you uploaded the container, so you might need to manually copy the file to the containers directory.

Hi,

I noticed my wedjet.js was not installed which was one of the problems. I can move it around but I cannot change colors and since it's written in white, it's difficult to spot . Any other tips to get this working would be appreciated

I can't get it to work either - installing it as a container fails in several places - .js file, thumb file etc.

Any help to get these issues fixed would be great.

Thanks

In the CSS file there are two places per class that you need to change the path to your background images.

This is my modified wedjet1 class in the Container.css

.wedjet1 {
cursor:move;
background: url(/DNN45/Portals/_default/Containers/wedjet/_i/myBG.png) no-repeat !important ;
background: none;
filter:progid:DXImageTransform.Microsoft.AlphaImageLoader(src='/DNN45/Portals/_default/Containers/wedjet/_i/myBG.png',sizingMethod='scale');

I have it working fine on 4.5.1. All I did was unzip the wedjet folder to my _default\containers folder. I did not use the DNN method of installing. I added a text module and then changed the settings to use wedjet as the container and voila all is working. Still trying to adjust the location and such but have played around with custom images, colors and sizes. Pretty cool Little gadget.

When I change my webjet as the container it deselects my choice of skin.

I thought the webjet was supposed to augment what I already have not replace.

Maybe I am doing something wrong.

You mean it replaces your container...not your page skin, right. That is what it is supposed to do and it takes on the predefined styles that it is configured with.

You need to edit the CSS, images, etc. to get it to look the way you want

I just tried to install it as well and got the same errors. It shows up as a container but the container is invisible and it won't drag around.

I am using DNN 4.5.3

John, can you just install the container manually? do you have problems using it then? There are several problems trying to install it as a container in the DNN SKIN interface.

John,

The best way to install it is to FTP the unzipped folder to your _default folder under containers.

Or you can upload it to any other portal folder as long as you configure the CSS image paths to that folder.

As for the JS and thumb file: You need to add .js files to allowed file types in your dnn settings (though you shouldn't have a problem if you are FTPing it.

You don't need the thumbs.db file - I don't know why is it part of the package at all...

Hope this helps

I just installed the widget on a DNN 4.5.3 I got the same errors posted in here. Here is how I fix them

****I installed the wedjet on a parent DNN installation (Portals/0)

****Copy the wedjet.js file to the Portals/0/Containers/wedjet folder through FTP

On the container.css I changed the following

wedjet1 {
cursor:move;
background: url(/Portals/_default/Containers/wedjet/_i/myBG.png) no-repeat !important ;
background: none;
filter:progid<img src='http://dnn.bi4ce.com/desktopmodules/ntforums/images/emoticons/biggrin.gif' height='20' width='20' border='0' title='Big Grin' align='absmiddle'>XImageTransform.Microsoft.AlphaImageLoader(src='/Portals/_default/Containers/wedjet/_i/myBG.png',sizingMethod='scale');
}

To

wedjet1 {
cursor:move;
background: url(/Portals/0/Containers/wedjet/_i/myBG.png) no-repeat !important ;
background: none;
filter:progid<img src='http://dnn.bi4ce.com/desktopmodules/ntforums/images/emoticons/biggrin.gif' height='20' width='20' border='0' title='Big Grin' align='absmiddle'>XImageTransform.Microsoft.AlphaImageLoader(src='/Portals/0/Containers/wedjet/_i/myBG.png',sizingMethod='scale');
}

Finaly on wedjet.ascx I commented the lines to make the toolbar object desapear.

<!-- COMMENT OUT THIS LINE TO REMOVE THE TOOLBAR OBJECT
<div class=WEDJETTOOLBAR style="position: absolute; left: 10px; top: 235px; z-index:2000;cursor:move;" id="<%=ClientID%>selector"></div>
-->
You can see it working at www.ozumba.net

I added a text/html module to my page. Added an image and text, assigned the wedjet container and the module does not display at all.

Does anyone have any ideas?

Interesting... if javascript never got uploaded, it should appear but not functional... but that is not the case here. ... instead of uploading via DNN try uploding with extract the files to your local drive FTP it and see if it works.

Thanks,
DP
