I want to display a text/html module on the home page and copy that to 90% of the pages throughout the site using DNN 5.6 which I've done.  But how do I make all the other instances update when I change the home page instance?  Is there a way to sync?  Is this possible with DNN6 if not with DNN 5.x?

when you copy a module you have 2 options -copy creates a "point-in-time" copy i.e clones the data and settings, whereas reference creates a linked copy whicch will update when the parent updates.

Hi Cathal,

Thanks for replying.  I don't see an option for reference when inserting a module from another page.  I see one check box that is by default unchecked.  Should I check it so it references continuously?
