Using the DashBoard Module

The DNNGO PhotoAlbums DashBoard module packs many useful functions — archive, calendar, photo list, categories, tags and multiple image carousel effects — and fits perfectly in a page sidebar.

Adding the Module and Associating a Main Module

1. Log in to DNN as an administrator and add the DNNGo PhotoAlbums DashBoard module to a pane on the page.
2. Click the module's Settings link (or Options in its management menu).
3. In the DNNGo PhotoAlbums DashBoard Settings section, under Data Settings, select Portals and then Tab & Module to pick the main module to associate (cross-portal selection is supported).
4. Click Update to save.

DashBoard needs an associated main module before it can display anything — see Module Overview.

Management Menu

The DashBoard management UI has three menu items:

Menu	Purpose	See
Options	Configuration of the current effect (theme, data source, parameters)	Effect Options
Effect List	Browse and switch the effect to display	Effect List
Style	Online CSS editor for the current effect	Effect Style
