Version History:

  • 1/25/2009 Version 3.2 - Added Parent Categories, Icons, and Abbreviations. Categories are now hyperlinks that append the selected category to the URL. When used with the Articles module, this will display only Articles from the selected Category. Also, converted the code to the WSP model so that the source is included in the install file and no separate DLL is needed.
  • 11/1/05 Version 3.1- Removed provider code (improves speed and decreases complexity), and removed a Foreign Key reference to the portal table that causes issues on Portal delete.
  • 2/2/05 Version 3.0 For DNN 3.x- Upgrades for DNN 3
  • 2/2/05 Version 2.0.1 For DNN 2.x- Code cleanup and bug fixes.
  • 8/2/04 Version 1.0
