After doing multiple sites with 200+ pages.... this point has bitten me in the 6 multiple times.  I love the "display module on all pages" feature - but once you get further into development and you need a new module placed on all pages in between two other modules that are displayed on all pages... it never defaults to the same order - so you need to check all pages to make sure it 's in the right spot... PAIN!!

So my feature requet is for the "Display Module on all pages" to take into account the placement in the pane with other modules that are also displayed on all pages.  I'm not sure if this is the area to put a feature request... but maybe others have had similar struggles with this?

Just to be clear - let's say my site already has "Module A" and "Module B" and both are being displayed on all pages:

Module A
Module B

And then you need to add a new & different module (it's not one big happy Text/Html module family) --- Module C ---- the desired page result would be according to the page it's set.  So If I get my modules to look like this on a page first:

Module A
Module C
Module B

And THEN I make Module C displayed on all pages --- It would know the other 2 are there - and make them all look the same.  Easy?  Hard?  I'm not sure --- nor overly familiar with how it's handled and stored in the DB.

Any tips / suggestions/  Similiar struggles / empathy / free beer for me?

Well,  I found something out... it seems that by displaying a module on all pages it automatically put it at the top of all pages (???)  And I think it takes into consideration the actual module ID... Just a guess.  Because I un-displayed on all pages - my 3 modules.... then re displayed on all pages... but the bottom module was on the top....  The bottom module was the first one initially created so it had a lower ModuleId.

So I un-displayed the other 2 and re-displayed on all pages - and it's correct.  So, something happened to work for my situation.

If you followed that... congrats!!
