I've used the bulk email control from the Users admin module to create a simple custom Mass Email module, but cannot get the localization to display in instances of the new module.

The custom module only contains a registration of the bulkemail.ascx control, and an instance of the control. I have  tried using the resource files from the Users admin section and the ones created by default by the DotNetNuke Module Template, but have had no success in displaying localization messages.

Other custom modules I have created have working localization, but not this one.

In our publish module we load some controls on our edit form that actually get loaded multiple times. In order to do that successfully we had to define the localresource file for each.

I don't know if this will help, but here's what we ended up using, (in C# of course)

private string ItemrelationshipResourceFile = "~" + DesktopModuleFolderName + "Controls/App_LocalResources/ItemRelationships";

this.ipc = (ItemRelationshipsBase) LoadControl("../controls/ItemRelationships.ascx");
this.ipc.ModuleConfiguration = ModuleConfiguration;
this.irc = (ItemRelationshipsBase)LoadControl("../controls/ItemRelationships.ascx");
this.ipc.LocalResourceFile = ItemrelationshipResourceFile;
this.ipc.VersionInfoObject = VersionInfoObject;
this.ipc.ListRelationshipTypeId = RelationshipType.ItemToParentCategory.GetID();
this.ipc.CreateRelationshipTypeId = RelationshipType.ItemToParentCategory.GetID();
this.ipc.AvailableSelectionMode = ListSelectionMode.Single;
this.ipc.IsRequired = true;
this.ipc.FlatView=true;
this.ipc.ItemTypeId = ItemType.Category.GetID();
this.phRelationships.Controls.Add(this.ipc);

Got it working now. That piece of code got me heading in the right direction.

All I did was specifically declare the LocalResourceFile for that  control.

Cheers!
