Hi All,

I recently create a site with 300 pages and shared common modules (mainly HTML/Text) across most of the pages.

Some of the new modules are a Copy of an existing module ( with content ) and others are a Reference to an existing module ( shared content ).  Now when I want to change the text (I can't remember when I selected Copy or Shared) I have not idea of the impact on the other pages.

Is there an easier way to manage/see an overview of the shared modules and where they are? By looking at the module I have no Idea of its inherited status. Next month I'll be creating a site with over 1500 pages and most of the elements on the right side of the page will be shared modules.

Is there a 3rd party module that you are aware of that can manage this??

Many thanks for any advise.

cheers,

simon

There is another module called Content Sharing that provide the functionalities you're looking for.   Note that it does not support all modules and only support a certain amount of modules provided.

With regards to the HML/Text module, in addition to the content sharing capabilities it also provide the ability to search and replace on the shared content.  I find this quite benificial especially when you only need to change a couple of words or replace content with dynamic data such user/portal profile information.
