Here is my scenario

- I insert a row into the tabmodules table in order to make a module appear in 2 places

in order for it to appear - I have to go to the tab I referenced in the above statement and either add or delete a module on that page. In which case the module i refened in the insert will show up on the tab.

Question: Why do I have to add or delete a module for the instance to appear? I thought DNN would just load all the modules from tabmodules and diaplay. There must be something else that is going on.

Maybe a dnn DB guru or developer can help me here?

Thanks in advance

John,

Thanks for the reply - can you give me a bit more detail on how to invalidate the cache? Is this the broweser cache you are referring to? Or is there a field in the DB that I can set?

Regards,

Update - well I looked into "invalidate the cache" and found that if you modify the web.config - in my case I added some whitespace and saved - the module would load.

NOw the questions are -

- is there another way to do it?

- if I do it via changing the web.config - I'm thinking of writing a stored proc that would add or remove whitespace or some data  to web.config - but unsure of how such a sproc would look

Thanks again for the at least pointing me in the right direction John :)
