Posting this as an FYI. We are using HouseMenu 1.4 as a module on our pages to display child pages for a given section of our site. It works great since it adds links dynamically when pages are added to the site heirarchy. It's been working fine up to DNN 5.6.3 Testing DNN 6.0 on our development site and every pages that used the HouseMenu navigation module breaks. Here is the error we get. Error: Section Links is currently unavailable. DotNetNuke.Services.Exceptions.ModuleLoadException: Object reference not set to an instance of an object. ---> System.NullReferenceException: Object reference not set to an instance of an object. at TimRolands.DNN.Modules.HouseMenu.HouseMenu.RenderMenuItem(Int32 itemId) --- End of inner exception stack trace --- I guess it has somethign to do with the change in the core DNN menu navigation provider? If anyone has any thoughts or suggestions on getting this module to continue to work in DNN 6.0 would be appreciated. Thanks

Looking a bit further into this issue... The RenderMenuItem method uses the GetTab method from DotNetNuke.Entities.Tabs class passing only the itemID as a parameter. Looks like that GetTab method is depricated and now uses the itemID along with the portalID and an ignoreCache boolen. Any chance of updating the source to pass the additional parameters?

Same experience on our site. Running still fine on 5.6.3. On 6.0.1 the HouseMenu 1.4.0 does not run: An error has occurred. DotNetNuke.Services.Exceptions.ModuleLoadException: Object reference not set to an instance of an object. ---> System.NullReferenceException: Object reference not set to an instance of an object. at TimRolands.DNN.SkinObjects.HouseMenuSkinObject.HouseMenuSkinObject.RenderMenuItem(Int32 itemId) --- End of inner exception stack trace ---

I updated the module and posted it on DNN Forge. You can d/l the updated DLL and just overwrite the one in your bin folder. The project is also there in case you want to make additional changes. http://www.dotnetnuke.com/Community/Extensions-Forge/view/ProjectDetail/project/housemenumoduleDNN6.aspx

Well this is great! Will there be an update for the SkonObject-DLL also? I would really appreciate that since i used this menu in several projects. Thanks for your answer in advance!

I have the same problem and need the SkinObject dll to be compatiable. Is there a way to use just the module you updated and not use the skin object somehow?

Any chance there's a fix for the TimRolands.DNN.SkinObjects.HouseMenuSkinObject.dll coming?
