This case describes how to generate a module with DNN KickStart
The case is based upon creation of a module by creating fields in DNN KickStart.

The code generated on this case is available as download on this site.

Open DNN KickStart and choose from the menu Module, New.

We change the following field:

Module name: Activities

After this we select the tab Fields

We add the following fields:

ActivityID, ActivityName, ActivityDate, PersonsUpperLimit, PersonsLowerLimit, NumberOfPersons, Comment

Click in the menu Tools, Export package.

Now your module is ready!
 
Your zip file inclusive code will be on the drive ready for upload in the site.

Upload your module by following these steps:

 

And now you have your new module available!

Go to a page and add your module

 

Your module will be visible and filled with "null' data, that is not actually stored, but indicates that records can be added and edited

Edit your record and save some meaningfull content

 

 

Your record has been updated and stored.

Thats all there is!

Of course the code of the module is available to you, so you can change the way data is presented in the View and Edit screens.
You can also set localisation in the resource files, but default English is used for the generation.
