Hi

I have an odd need duplicate an installed desktop module.  I want to make some changes to the code, but keep both versions completely seperate and have it appear as a seperate module for users to add to panes.

I know it is not as simple as copying and renamming the folder under /desktop Modules/ .

Has anyone done this before? are there key steps that one should be aware of to make this work?

Cheers
Phil

Your big thing is to copy the files, rename ALL namespaces to ensure they are unique, and depending on the needs you will also need to modify the SQL calls to separate them.
