installing a module twice under different names?
Posted: Tue Jul 30, 2013 1:58 pm
Hi
I have a need to duplicate a module and install it twice under different names. The module in question is Gallery and does not appear to allow different settings for templates - well the ones I need to change per template appear to be global.
So I thought about installing it twice under different names. Is this possible?
Looking at the xml file the only part which is readable is the first few lines:
At the bottom I can see the name and version. Is it just a case of changing this to a new unique name and the module will install twice?
I don't have a test environment to hand otherwise I would test it.
All help greatly appreciated.
Steve
