Managing a Premium Module

Overview

After installation, hosts can set the module to Premium and select which websites can access the module. If a module is designed to be premium by default, hosts only need to choose the sites that can use it. Setting the module to Premium restricts its availability at the site and role levels, and the administrators of each enabled site can assign Can Deploy module permissions to a role, such as the Content Manager, to allow users in that role to add the module to a page.

This article provides the steps to configure and manage a premium module and assign or unassign websites to that module.


 

Environment

  • DNN Platform
  • Evoq Content
  • Evoq Engage

 


 

Prerequisites

You need a host/superuser account to be able to perform the steps outlined in this article.

  • Hosts have full permissions to all sites in the DNN instance.
  • A host account is required to upload modules and themes because they might contain executable code.
  • An administrator account is sufficient to apply modules and themes to a website.
