Hi,

I have a skin for my dotnetnuke website and want to place my custom modules on that skin page so that I don't have to place the modules myself everytime I create a new page in dotnetnuke. I know that I can select 'place module on every page', but I experienced some issues with that and want to place my modules directly on the skin template.

I included my modules on the skin template like this:
<%@ Register TagPrefix="dnn" TagName="Newsletter" Src="~/DesktopModules/Newsletter/View.ascx" %>
<%@ Register TagPrefix="dnn" TagName="Social" Src="~/DesktopModules/Social/View.ascx" %>

Now when I refresh my page i get this error:

Unable to cast object of type 'System.Collections.Generic.List`1[DataCore.Modules.Newsletter.Components.Item]' to type 'System.Collections.Generic.IEnumerable`1[DataCore.Modules.ContactForm.Components.Item]'.

Why do I get this error message? When I try it with one module it works.

I also have another question about localization of the module in my skin template. I have a resourcekey on a label in my newsletter module:
<asp:Label id="lblSubscribeToNewsletter" runat="server" resourcekey="Submit.Text" />

When I place the module in my skin template the text is not shown. When I place the module on the page myself with dotnetnuke admin then the text is shown. I tried to put the resourcekey in the resource file for the template but that doesn't work. 

Can somebody help me?

Thanks for your answer. I've made skinobjects of my module now and I don't get the error anymore but my text is still empty on my template. I've added the resourcekey to my skin resource file but this won't work either.
