As an example: When you add the DNN Feedback module to a page, the ViewComments control is also added. Then you can moce it to any container. How is the achieved in code.

In the feedback definition, ViewComments.ascx is not defined at all, but when you add Feedback.ascx, then ViewComments.ascx automaticly comes along. I can't figure out from the code how this is achieved. Can someone give me some guidelines?

You can see in .dnn file, there are two module definitions "Feedback" and "Feedback Comments". You don't need to write a code to achieve it. You just have to make two module definitions in same module. So, It will add both view controls from diff definitions when you add module to the page.

Varma

You do this through the configuration of the Module Defintion on the Host/Module Definitions page.

Create the basic info about the module, name, folder, etc.

Add a Definition

Add Controls to the Definition

Add another Definition

Add controls to this new Definition

rinse repeat

Grab the blog module and check it's DNN manifest and you should be able to find how to add multiple definitions from that.
