Scott Schecter made a post on his blog about how to disable new search features in DNN 4.5.2. I have not checked to see if these changes still apply to DNN 4.5.3.

Anyone know what else prompted the new release today?

Joe Brinkman of the core team commented that it was security related and provided a URL to Sebastian Leupold's post concerning the upgrade. Here is the list:

  • banner advertising disabled for all users by default

  • incorrect display of "Upgrade available" icon for Layout Objects in Module Definitions eliminated
  • issue with login page redirect after signin corrected
