If you need to extend the features of the standard DNN Login, I highly recommend Dynamic Login. In addition to all the features you get with this module, the support is top notch and quick to resolve any issues.
I contacted Chad to see what exactly the module could do and what I would need to purchase to get the same functionality as AdvancedLogin. He basically held my hand every step of the way since then. Even without having purchased the full module, he provided one to one support via email until we got everything setup and working correctly. When I asked about the dropdown login and noticed there was no trial he offered a refund if I couldn't get it to work the way I wanted. He helped me identify errors and possible solutions and always responded fast!
I am extremely impressed with the products, and the support. I understand where every dollar in price difference goes!
The reasons I purchased this module: A trial version was available. Nice administrative interface. Good documentation. Most importantly - it works.
I had tried other modules. One just plain didn't work when trying to redirect based on roles. Another other did not handle logins that first require a user to enter the verification code sent via email upon registering. How the heck do you try to sell a login module that can't account for a site wanting to use verified accounts? I started emailing others to ask that question (when a trial wasn't available) I found others that couldn't.
In addition, when DataSprings sent a follow up to the download trial, I responded with a note letting them know I purchased this module and was very happy with it. It was then follow up with a thankyou and another person on staff offering some unsolicited tips that helped me with the site.
Good support and a good product. Yes, it may cost more, but you get what you pay for here.
Very nice. Works great for what we needed it for. Loaded with many nice features that I have not yet discovered. Self-help guides on datasprings.com is great.
Dynamic Login works great. Don't let the manual scare you. It's capable of some really neat logins, but it's fast and easy to setup basic login procedures on your DNN site. No kidding!
Just bought it and set it up. The documentation was great. I had it going in about 5 minutes. I mainly bought it because I wanted users to be able to login between 2 parent sites without re-registering and it worked perfectly with no hassle. Now I am going to make it look all pretty.
Solid module. If you want to have complete control of the login module then this is your answer. I strongly recommend getting the Dynamic Registration as well along with the Opt-In mod to have ultimate control of the process.
The only downside is that you can't rename the username input label. This would be helpful in the event you use email addresses as a username. Minor issue but would help with the usability factor.
Brian - Thanks for the detailed feedback. Yes we have plans in the next release for the entire edit page to be completely customized with a template build with the Rich Text Editor. This will provide the layout features that some implementations would really benefit from. Right now you could change the localization for changing the input label but then it would change throughout the portal(s) and not just that instance. Anyway, thanks again for the feedback!
