    I don't know if I am just missing something obvious, but I have downloaded the source for DNN3.1.1 and cannot find the source for the core modules. I _did_ download the source archive as I have the source to the portal, and source for 3 modules (PageTitle, SearchInput, SearchResults), but no source for the rest.

    The other modules are installed as part of the installation (they exist as installation packages in the Install directory), but those archives still do not include the source. 

    Does anyone know where I need to look? And if the source isn't actually there, is it able to be put in?

    Thanks,
    Hamish.

    Hi,

    The source is included in the folder in Desktop modules located in DNN folder.

    The source for those 3 I mentioned are, but not the rest.
    HOWEVER, I have just noticed that when the modules install themselves (from the zip files in the Install/Module directory when you first browse the site), they also install the source, even though the source doesn't appear to be in the zip files at all.
    Magic!

    All I can think of is that the source is hidden in the .resource file.
    Interesting.

    the source is indeed in the .resource file. All it is is a renamed zip file (.resources is a mapped extension so is not directly downloadable)

    Thanks.

    Just as a matter of interest, how does it get extracted as part of the installation process? Does the installer unzip anything that has a .resource extension?

    no, if the PaWriter.vb is told IncludeSource is true, then it will look for a .resources file that begins with the module name (ie.  objDesktopModule.ModuleName & ".resources"), and extract that. It won't just unzip all .resources files.
