This session will start to explore more of the nitty gritty sections of the DotNetNuke core API and will show you how to navigate the API and methods for leveraging the full power of the core. In the end, attendees should be much more comfortable with the Core API and integration points. Best practices for leveraging the core will also be discussed.
