Add a module into other modules

Add a module into other modules

I’m developing a module that I want to add to other existing modules. I have inserted the following code into the edit.ascx for another module:

<%@ Register TagPrefix="dnn" TagName="MyEdit" Src="~/DesktopModules/MyModule/Edit.ascx" %>

<dnn:MyEdit id="objmyEdit" runat="server"></dnn:MyEdit>

How do I make it so that when the other module is saved, is sends a signal to save my module as well?

Re: Add a module into other modules

This sort of functionality is not by design in DNN - there is currently no sort of events type implementation in DNN that would all for actions on one module to trigger events on other modules.

What exactly are you trying to achieve ?

Thank you for your answer!

I want to be able to tag pages and other content. But not the usual tagging, only a couple of predefined tags where the user sets a number to rate how well it fits the topic.

Re: Add a module into other modules

you can add another control in ur custom DNN Module but user different names not View / Edit / Settings
and use it in your code behind to call it or send parameters to it.
and my best practice in this situation is to make all ur work in a view and ur other code in another view and from code behind show which view you want to your client based on your code.
