Our shop is primarily .NET but because of the lack of any really good popular .NET CMS products, we have chosen to use WordPress (and Drupal at times) for our public facing sites.
I realize this is highly subjective, but it is the conclusion we came to for our purposes. One could certainly make a case for DotNetNuke and others, but that is another conversation.
I would like to know if I can integrate small components into WordPress sites, primarily to do simple forms (logon, lost password, contact us, change user settings, etc...)
Can I do this with an iFrame or another method that I am not thinking about?
I try to create a wordpress site from the gallery and I get an error that says that it cannot find database. I dont have mySQL installed. I thought that WebMatrix would download and install it. Does WebMatrix Beta 3 expect MySQL to be installed? And if so, which version?
I have a datatable declared on the top of the .vb file as.. Dim dt As DataTable,Now for example.. on the page_load i do..

I am attempting to create a single sign on experience between an asp.net site and a wordpress site using a simple form POST method. I have built a simple php page that uses the native wordpress functions wp_insert_user and wp_signon to create user account in the mysql db and sign them in. In my asp.net 'create new user' page code behind, I'm using the post method of an HttpWebRequest to send the required information to the php page.
It almost works! The new wordpress user is created in the mysql database, but they are not logged in. How can I get wordpress to log them in?Here is my HttpWebRequest
'get the values Dim fn As String = TxtFirstName.Text Dim ln As String = TxtLastName.Text[code].....
I would like to use WordPress as my blog engine, but it is based on PHP. I wonder if there is a dot net version of it which provides the same feature as well as the same look.
I'm working on a Press Release website that currently has an existing distribution platform built on ASP.NET - the site that I have built is utilizes Wordpress Multi-site and BuddyPress, and I need to share information between Wordpress & the existing ASP.NET CMS. The information that needs to be shared between both platforms is 1) Press release information (which is a custom post type in Wordpress) and 2) The login information. Is there a way to have ASP.NET get the information from the Wordpress MYSQL database? Or is the best way to write a plugin for wordpress that will send information to the ASP.NET each time a new press release is written, and each time a new user account is created. I can go either way - having ASP.NET grab the info, or Wordpress send the info out.

I am trying to roll out a Wordpress site here at [URL] but ran into a snag as the only Wordpress version that it supported was the 3.0.1 not the 3.0.4. What version does Webmatrix install? I have a running site and would rather not rebuild it, can I install this over the top of my existing site?
when trying to install WordPress using WebMatrix I keep getting the following error: No connection could be made because the target machine actively refused it 127.0.0.1:3306 I added a port open rule in Windows Firewall, ran a Netstat -an with nothing showing up as using that port, and still no love.
I have a directory in my website called /MyFiction. It is an installed version of Wordpress for a particular blog and I would like to keep it to where you can only get to it if you're authenticated. I'm an old hat to ASP.NET but with MVC I'm still a newbie....
I have a wordpress website that collects data in a MySQL database and I need to magically get that data into our SQL Server database. I'm hoping it can be done in an automated way.
I have a site that the users log into using their windows authentication. I need to give them a way to log off but don't know what the code behind the button would look like.
I have this website where I want just only the computers in our office have access to it. How can I write code to do this? I've been looking all over the web but I couldn't find anything like this. Sorry I couldn't write any code about this before posting this question.I will be using this part of code in the header.aspx file.
I need to build a Q&A module for a .net site. I need it to integrate with our .net membership system. We are happy to pay for it... but all I have found so far is php code and the QHub hosted system, which would be a problem to integrate with out members.
I am taking over for a website in ASP.Net (VB.Net) where the live site is compiled code. So there's no code behind pages. So other than the ASP.Net pages, it's just DLL files in the bin folder.It's also at an ISP where I have no control over the server to remote in.
I have gotten from the client, what I believe to be the latest and greatest code. So there's code behind pages and also a vbproj file. It seems to be have done in an early version of Visual Studio.Thinking maybe 2003.I only have Microsoft Visual Web Developer 2010 (I've been using) and VS2005.So I made a very basic change just to test the waters and built the website, which made a brand new DLL for the site in bin. Also new pdb and xml document. It works fine on dev.I uploaded just this DLL to live. However on live, when I get to the part where I'm submitting a form.I get a very non descript error.

I can't see the line number of the error + am I compiling the DLL wrong?I trying to figure out how to do this without breaking the live site. Is there a way to tell what version of .Net it's compiled in.
I have a web page that has lots of different parts to it (i.e many data grids). The page takes quite a while to load up because it is running all the stored procedures to populate each grid so the user is left waiting for the whole page to load.
I would like to improve this by loading the page a section at a time so that to the user is not left waiting for the whole page to load up before anythin can be viewed.
What is the best way to tackle this problem. Do i need to use threading or would i being going down the wrong path looking into that.
Is it possible to allow a user to customize sections of our website to match their look and feel? For example, to modify logos and CSS, possibly pointing back to their site for the actual content. Ideally I would also like a third-party (ASP.NET) tool to manage this, rather than coding a hack myself.
Edited: I want a solution where a customer can just use a menu to modify the attributes they want, so that there is no need for me to interact with the customer at all.
I'm creating a site with 2 different sections (main site and admin) and both of them need authentication. they have separate login screens.
the main section is for users to login and manage their personal details. this is already created and it works fine using FormsAuthentication.the admin section is for the administrator to manage the users. now, how do I go about creating the admin section? Can I use FormsAuthentication again? or sessions?
