Hi, I'm trying to copy my custom module (I have the C# sources) from one page to another via the "Modules -> Add existing module" menu, but the magic doesn't work (using or not the "Create a copy" option, the result is the same), it creates a sort of empty container without the configuration that it should carry. I'm using DNN 7.4 (yes, yes, it's not the latest :-) and the porting to DNN 9 is coming soon). What's missing in my module?
Thanks S.
If you wish for the data in a custom module to be copied as a part of the built-in DNN features like this one, you need to update your module to implement IPortable.
Thanks Will, as always, you are on the ball and available. Is it possible that in the past, I'm talking about version 5.x, it wasn't necessary to implement that interface?

Actually, this "module feature" (as it used to be known) has been available to developers since way before DNN 5. Maybe as far back as version 2.xx or 3.xx? It's been there a long time. 😉
Hi, I am copying an existing module from one page to another, but the docie does not run. Why?

I mean "the code" does not execute
Hey Seek!
That's really difficult to say... Have you tried debugging your DNN module code yet to see if you can hit a breakpoint? 🤔
Never mind, I made a mistake in the class where the code should have been placed. :-D
