It looks like every pane except the middle pane are deactivated when the customer drills down to the product detail page. Obviously editing the ascx page behind Product Detail won't fix this. And I don't see a switch in the settings page / store admin.

I'm still trying to figure out the source on DNN, so I'm sure I'm missing something simple. Either that, or the way the module is being called via the query string is blocking out the other panes. (If you check "show module on all pages" for example on Categories or Mini-Cart, they don't show up on the Product Detail page.)

Any suggestions?

That is the default behavior in dnn when you navigate from the default user control to another user control of a module. Here is a good post at dotnetnuke that describes it in more detail http://www.dotnetnuke.com/Community/F...

From the link:

"...when displaying the non-default view control, all other modules normally shown on the page are not rendered.

So, if you must display other view controls of the module in the BottomPane then your options will be to either dynamically load the other views into a placeholder control of your default view control or use one of several variations on having your main view include all of the other views then display or hide them appropriately."

Ouch.

I wonder if there is a way to override this default behaviour? Hmmmm.......time to code dive deeper.

We are looking at splitting the product detail page as its own module which would allow you to add other modules to the product details page. Then you would be able to add modules to both product list and product details pages which is what most people are wanting.

Scott,

When do you think this will be accomplished? As a monthly subscriber to the Cart I am very interested in this option. I keep getting kickbacks and dirty looks from my marketing department when they click the product details and all their pretty marketing fluff goes away.

Thanks,

Tom

This is in programming and being worked on now it should be released in about a week.
