Is there a way to change the container for each section?

I want to change the container for "create new blog section, edit blog" ... basically for all others editing modules.

Once they are added, aren't they just a set of standalone modules that all work together to provide a workflow for a singular function?  Meaning, have you tried just going into the "Page Settings" section of the "Module Settings" and change the container?

yes i tried that, instead of using the container that i set in "page setting", it uses the default container that i set in "site setting".

Note that i can set the container for each modules ( latest blog entries , blog archive, blog setting, search and blog list ) as each of these modules has their own "module setting" .

But as you know, under "blog setting module" it has 3 links ( blog setting, view myblog, add blog entry ). And i couldnt set the container for those descendants modules because they dont have a "module setting"

Is there a way to set the container for these descendants modules?

Pardon my English and thanks in advance for your help...

api13,

I see what you are trying to do. Unfortunately, however, I think you've hit one of the few limitations in DNN, where it is NOT possible to change Skins and Containers arbitrarily for "admin" pages. What you set in Site Settings from ADMIN skin and container is what you will see in those pages. (If you notice, this is the same issue with the terms and conditions pages, and the privacy - as they are set-up as CONTROLS and not modules).

Basically, the pages you want to change the containers of, are admin sections of the module - just as the Module Settings page is or Site Settings etc.

Not much help here, sorry :(

Hmm...  Wouldn't it be nice if the Core would allow a module developer to override the Admin container for the module instance?
