thats a rather broad requirement description. For instance, the announcement module does that.

In general: make sure your module implements IPortable. You can look at the code in the Announcements module to see how that is done

In general how one will transfer from one module to another module in another page? Will they be using the ip addresss to transfer ?

Sherlock,

what do you achieve ?

  • Two modules references from different pages of a single portal might share the same data, if the second was created using "use existing module" in the control center. Some modules (e.g. UserDefinedTable) provide options for a per page configuration of the output.
  • Other modules like Blog may provide options, that one module instance may display content from an existing instance of the same module type in the same portal.
  • There are modules like News Feed (RSS) OR XML/XSL, which might provide content from another module in same or different portals or non-DNN web sites
  • Besides, all modules, which implement iPortable interface, provide the option to export the module content into an XML file and re-import it in a different module instance in the same or a different portal. Make sure, exporting and importing modules are of same version.
