Hi folks,

Having a few stange problems with a clean install of DNN 4.3.5.  I built a "secondary" admin page with various resources and content, and at the last moment decided to insert a User Account module.  As soon as I hit "add", it effectively replaced all the other modules on the page with a "Manage Profile" module.  I don't know if this is by design or not, but if it is, the dangers should be explicitly advertised.  No other module replaces existing modules.  All those modules were gone - not even placed in the recycle bin for possible recovery.

Worse, I can't uninstall that module.  The ACTIONS menu is not there, so I'll have to delete the entire page.  Sounds pretty strange...

I had my partner do the same thing for a test... and sure enough the User Account module replaces *whatever* modules you have on that page, with no way of removing it - save deleting the page.

Comments?

Just curious if there is a bug base that I can post this to - I'd be happy to report this to the right spot.  Has any one else tried to insert the User Account module on an existing page?  This can cause someone to potentially lose a lot of data.  Consider wiping out an entire forum or blog.

How come no core guys have made a comment?  On my portal, this is *repeatable*.
