Date: 18-Jul-2011
If you click the 'copy' button next to a Section on the Section landing page, then this will create a copy of:
Inactive Module
Inactive modules are not copied when a Section is copied.
Copy Module
There is a 'Copy Module' check box on the administration panel for each Module on both the Section Homepage and the Section Modules page.
- the Section itself;
- the contents of the Section Homepage; and
- the contents of the Section Modules.
Inactive Module
Inactive modules are not copied when a Section is copied.
Copy Module
There is a 'Copy Module' check box on the administration panel for each Module on both the Section Homepage and the Section Modules page.
- If the 'Copy Module' check box is ticked when an administrator copies a Section, then the Module will also be copied. This means that a new instance of that module will be created that is a complete copy of the existing module. You will then be able to update the contents of that module without affecting the existing module.
- If the 'Copy Module' check box is NOT ticked when a Section is copied, the existing Module is added to the new Section Homepage or Section Modules. This means the Module on the existing Section and the new Section are the same module and any changes to the Module will affect both pages.
