Menu gone in DotNetNuke 4.5.5 on IE10

Question

I have a site that is running DotNetNuke 4.5.5. Users who use IE10 can't see the site main menu. Any clue why this happening, and where to look for solutions?

Answer 1

I assume you are using SolPartMenu which is not compatible with IE10. Besides the main menu, containers' action menus are also not visible.

I recommend upgrading to DDRMenu, which has been the default navigation provider since DNN 6. There is an install package available for DNN 4.5.0 and above, so you don't have to upgrade DotNetNuke just because of the menu.

DDRMenu provides a simple way to upgrade your SolPartMenu skins and containers, using a compatibility template, which supports many, but not all SolPartMenu properties.

To upgrade a SolPart menu, edit your skin's ASCX files and replace:

<%@ Register TagPrefix="dnn" TagName="..." src="~/Admin/Skins/SolPartMenu.ascx" %>

with

<%@ Register TagPrefix="dnn" TagName="..." src="~/DesktopModules/DDRMenu/SolPartMenu.ascx" %>

Upgrading a container is a similar process, replace:

<%@ Register TagPrefix="dnn" TagName="..." Src="~/Admin/Containers/SolPartActions.ascx" %>

with

<%@ Register TagPrefix="dnn" TagName="..." Src=""~/DesktopModules/DDRMenu/Actions.ascx"" %>
