Hi

I have created a simple Store module that has a Products View, Edit and Settings control and also an Admin View control. I have created the module definition for the Products module but when I try to create another module definition for the Admin module I get the following error:

I have installed the DNN Store module and can see that multiple modules can be installed from the same package but can't figure out how to do it. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks
Ian

I've ran into something like this before. First I would make sure the module name is unique to the admin control. If you want two modules then they have to have unique identifiers, friendly name, module name etc. Then they will show up in your module drop down list as something like "My Store Module" and "My Store Module Admin".

I would also recommend making a install package for your module. Take the .dnn file provided in the dnn store module install package and use it as a template to make your own .dnn "manifest" file unique to your new module. Then you'll be able to install your module .zip file through your module definitions install extension page.
