Modules

 |
|
Modules are add-ons to the Content Management System (modular pieces of code) that each present some functionality to the user, like a personnel contacts list, events calendar, or a list of announcements. The DotNetNuke portal comes with a wide variety of modules, each designed to manage a common type of website or portal content.
Typically, several content modules are grouped on a page to create a web page. Modules can be added, edited, deleted, restored, moved around on a page, or transfer to another page. |
Besides the Core modules that are part of every default DotNetNuke installation, there is also a wide range of (non-core, non-commercial) free modules and enhancements to modules available from the websites of DotNetNuke community members
The third source of non-core modules (or add-ons to the CMS as you may call them) are the growing number of online businesses who provide commercial modules for sale and .net programmers who offer custom module development.

| Skins are customized and interchangeable sets of graphics which allow administrators to easily change the look of their websites, without having to reorganize their content. In "skinning" a site, administrators can completely change the look of their portal without the need to reorganize content – all at the click of a button. |
A skin is the design applied to the standard DotNetNuke portal to change the layout and design. A skin package is a zip file that includes the HTML layout, images, and may also include a stylesheet. A skin package must be uploaded to your File Manager and can be globally added or removed on the Site Settings tab, or under the Tab Settings of each tab. |
Designing a custom look and feel for a DotNetNuke portal requires changes to all or some of the key design elements, these being:
