There are issues with Dynamic Forms in the latest release of DNN 5.01 version where Dynamic Forms doesn't have the Import Content / Export Content available. We are still researching on this issue. For now, please go to HOST / SQL and execute the following query:
update {objectQualifier} DesktopModules set SupportedFeatures=1 where FriendlyName like '%Dynamic Forms%'
Then go to HOST / HOST Settings and click on the "Restart Application" link. The import / export content should appear afterwards. -- David

Are there any updates on this situation? I've run the script successfully and restarted the app, but there is still nothing showing up in the import dropdown. I can see the file on the ftp, so i know it's exporting. Any ideas would be appreciated |

HI Jeff, what version of DF are you running? Also, is your DNN 5.01 or 5.1.0? The above scripts should have fixed the issue. -- David |

hey david, we're running dnn 5.00.01 and DF 2.70.0
i'm able to export successfully and can see that the xml file is being created on the portal, but it's not pulling into the import dropdown. |

This is very bizarre. If you can see the "export content" drop down, I don't see any reason why the "import content" drop down won't appear. Does this also happen on other modules or just DF 2.70.0? -- David |

I'm sorry - what i meant was that once you click 'import content' from the module dropdown, then select 'root' folder (where i exported it to), the dropdown still does not get populated with selections. |

HI Jeff, if you Admin / File Manager can you traverse to the root and rename or copy the XML filename to something else? For example, if your exported filename is filename.xml, rename or copy it to another name called filename2.xml and see if the Import Content drop down will see and list it? I've had this happened to me numerous times on my localhost system where I had to rename or copy the xml file. -- David |

I tried renaming, saving to different folders and renaming, and still nothing. Here's what's being exported, which looks like the correct syntax to me:
content.DynamicForms.RightSideContact.xml |

Can you try one more thing, and that is to copy the file and rename the copy to content.DynamicForms.RightSideContact2.xml? See if this will show up. Thanks. -- David |

I had the same problem with importing / exporting XML files on my localhost system. People would send me XML files to debug in DNN and I place it in the "Exports" folder but it won't appear in the drop down list. Sometimes, I would have to copy it and then rename it for it to work. -- David |

I'm having exactly the same trouble as described above with trying to import a demo module. I have tried every combination of moving and renaming that is possible but the import list will still not populate with any of the demo files. I am using DNN 5.2 and Dynamic Forms 3.3. |

HI, please go to Admin / File Manager and traverse to the directory where you placed the XML file and click on "Synchronize File". This should sync up the DNN file manager with the localdisk hard drive and then you should see it available for import. If not, get back with me for other options. -- David |

Hold the horses, it's now working ! Formed a new module on another page just to try it and this time it has populated the list and imported it. What do you know. Cheers for the prompt response anyway. |
