Content Sharing for DotNetNuke®
Content Sharing (CS) is a suite of DotNetNuke® modules designed to leverage from the existing DotNetNuke core modules to provide a mechanism to share read-only content to same portal or between portals within the same DotNetNuke® instance.
Content Sharing provide a mechanism to replicate content across portals without requiring the use exporting and importing. This means that users can create their content once and use elsewhere, saving users significant amount of time in maintenance for large volume of data.
In addition Content Sharing modules also support dynamic content localization. Which means a single instance of a Content Sharing module can display localized content for logged on users based on their preferred language. In other words, if a user with English as the preferred language, then the module will content in English. If a user logged on with Italian as the preferred language then, content will be displayed in Italian, if exists.
Content Sharing has a security model whereby modules selectively allow access to the module being shared. The security access can be controlled only the Host or Super User account giving the administrator full control on which and how the content modules can be used.
Main features include:
- Content replication - write once use everywhere
- Dynamic content localization based on user preferred language
- Enhance security control on data sharing of module

Content Sharing modules is perfect for applications where content of a module, say HTML/Text module, is required to be replicated across multiple portals. Before Content Sharing, you would need to either copy & paste or use the module's Import & Export functionality to replicate data. However, when there is a large volume of data, maintenance of this would then become extremely difficult. This is where Content Sharing modules can reduce the task of maintenance of data across a number of portals.
