⚠️ Legacy Module Note: We will not be providing technical support for older versions of the Glanton Modules, but we’ll do our best to answer general questions where possible.
Coming Next Week: The Glanton Modules Return
For years, the Glanton Modules have been essential tools for enterprise DNN environments — especially those requiring robust Active Directory and identity management capabilities. Originally developed by Ian Sampson and Barry Waluzko, these modules earned a strong reputation for reliability and flexibility.
We’ve been working behind the scenes to bring them back — and they’ll be available starting next week.
Here’s what’s included
- AD-Pro Authentication
Seamlessly integrates DNN with your Active Directory for secure, configurable single sign-on (SSO).
- AD-Pro Users Directory
Displays AD users in a searchable, styled directory for intranet and staff portals.
- AD-Pro Profile Updater
Enables users to securely update specific AD profile fields directly from your website.
- AD-Pro Password Reset
Allows users to reset their AD passwords through your DNN site — even if they’ve forgotten their current one.
- AD-Pro Password Expiry
Alerts users when their password is about to expire and provides a built-in renewal process.
- AD-Pro Synchronization
Automatically syncs your DNN user database with Active Directory on your schedule, with custom filtering options.
What’s New?
This isn’t a copy/paste relaunch — we’ve re-engineered these modules to align with today’s best practices and eliminate legacy issues:
- ✅ Telerik dependency removed
- ✅ Licensing engine completely rebuilt (no more Salesforce)
- ✅ Critical bugs resolved
- ✅ Performance improved across the board
- ✅ Support and documentation enhanced
What’s Next?
This launch marks a new chapter for Upendo Ventures and the DNN community. With the introduction of Upendo DNN Support and the return of the Glanton Modules, we’re delivering the tools and peace of mind you’ve been waiting for.
If you have questions or want to talk through which options are best for your team, reach out to us here. We’re here to help.
