Example from DNN Data

DNN also provides a lot of data about users, pages etc. In this example, we'll list all the pages (tabs) in DNN and mark the one we're on. Please note that the DNN API isn't very consistent - so sometimes things use ID, sometimes Id, so best really verify the exact names as spelled in the API.

Output

@{
  // get the pages
  var pages = DotNetNuke.Entities.Tabs.TabController.GetPortalTabs(CmsContext.Site.Id, 0, true, false);
  var current = DotNetNuke.Entities.Tabs.TabController.CurrentPage;
}

<ul>
  @foreach (DotNetNuke.Entities.Tabs.TabInfo dnnPage in pages) {
    <li class='@(dnnPage.TabID == current.TabID ? "selected" : "")'>
      <a href="@dnnPage.FullUrl" target="_blank">
        @dnnPage.TabName (#@dnnPage.TabID)
      </a>
    </li>
  }
</ul>
