What is Opening Manager 1.0.0?
Opening Manager was designed to fill a need in the DotNetNuke Community by providing a easy to use opening or job posting application for organizations and companies.
See our module in action, visit the openings section of Brightwork Technologies!
Above is the module view as a job seeker would view. The container is set like any other module! It can be placed on any standard page within the a DotNetNuke portal.
Job seekers can mouse click on and column title to sort openings by that heading.
Paging controls the number of jobs on each page and users can easily page through jobs.
The example above has not reached the opening number threshold set within the module settings therefore it does not show multiple pages.
We have included an automatic counter that displays the total number of openings.
Job seekers can easily select an opening by clicking on the Opening ID and are taken to a detailed view of that opening.
The default disclaimer will always appear at the bottom of each opening.
Above is the detailed opening module view as a job seeker would view. The container style is set by the default container within the DotNetNuke Site Settings > Appearance Settings.

Important note on standard DotNetNuke settings:

The cache must be set to (0) or the paging will not function correctly.

Due to the architecture of DotNetNuke the “Opening Detail” will always have the default container for the portal, set under “Admin: Site Settings: Appearance: Portal Container” even if the module is configured to utilize a different container.
In addition to the standard DotNetNuke module settings, selecting settings allows the following settings to be set for the module.
We have included help text within the module by selecting the standard DotNetNuke question box. A sample is shown below.
