I am trying to move a site from DNN 3.3.7 up to 4.9.0. Everything works perfectly, except about 10 pages. These pages have an old vendor module which allows you to share a module (typically html module) across multiple portals. So you build it in one portal and then let it point to other portals, typically child portals.

So for example: There is a contact us module which is shared between 3 child portals, making an update in the main portal / module feeds down to the other ones.

The current module seems to actually just duplicate the module, and when you choose edit loads up the content of the main module, and then reduplicates the changes to the other portals. Sort of a copy paste method, but automated for the portals you push the module to.

I can't get a good feel for who the original vendor was. I have looked in their module folders, but there is no sort of text file or manifest identifying them. All I have is the module names and their leading abbreviation. NMH-<moduleName>

It would be nice to find a replacement module for this one, or find the vendor and see if they have an updated version.

Thank you all for the help.

 Check with these guys...

Searching for NMH in various exceptions seemed to point to them.  Not sure if they are the vendor or not because I cant find a module on their page that matches that description, but they seem to use the same abbreviations in their namespace..

I came across those same guys when trying my searches. I have put in an email to see if they are the same people but who have just moved on to different modules.

I did find a module that offers the same functionality, http://www.snowcovered.com/Snowcovered2/Default.aspx?tabid=242&PackageID=15592

Luckily I only have a hand full of pages needing "converted" so it shouldn't be to hard to move to a new module. The above module also spans both 4.9 and 5.0+ versions which will allow me to use it moving forward as well.

Thank you for helping with the research.
