I'm trying to setup this module. I have installed the version from Snowcovered (3.1.1). I have added the Opt-In Email module to my site and I have setup one list. I've then tried to open the initial settings only to find a blank screen (other than my skin) - not what I was expecting. On inspecting my log veiwer I can see this:

Any advice on how to fix this issue would be appreciated.

Hi. I just wanted to follow up on this thread to help other users running on DNN 4.5.1 or lower of DNN (actually 3.1 requires DNN 4.4.x I believe so this would be users running 4.4.x thru 4.5.x I believe). This thread was added as a support ticket and here are some comments regarding the issue...

First yes you might have to revert back to a previous installation as the 3.1 included a fix that DNN put in place which was placing all controls within the settings area as AJAX controls which then did not work with the Rich Text Editor. I believe that the version you would have to upgrade your DNN installation would probably be 4.5.5 but I would actually suggest 4.8.x myself.

So... To run 4.5.1 and Opt In Email you can make this modification:

If you go into the desktopmodules\Opt In Email module directory and also the SImple Opt In Email module directory you should find these two files:


_EditOptInSetings.ascx

and


_EditOptInSimpleSettings.ascx


If you open these files up in notepad you can remove these lines from the file (located near the top):



<|% If DotNetNuke.Framework.AJAX.IsInstalled Then
DotNetNuke.Framework.AJAX.RegisterScriptManager()
DotNetNuke.Framework.AJAX.RegisterPostBackControl(Me.lnkUpdateMessage)
End If
%|>

This should fix your issue... Again this is related to an issue that came about within 4.8 release of DNN (it might be changed in the 4.8.1 stabalization release, I am not sure). Basically the implemented AJAX for all areas within the 'Settings' area of module configurations and this causes a conflict with Rich Text Box fields used in the Settings area. This is something you can also duplicate even in the Repository core module (if you try and update the Rich Text you have to switch to basic textmode before the changes get saved since AJAX is not working properly with saving the Rich Text).
