      Some modules cannot work with multiple instances.
      Usually, If the module has node_helper.js, that kind of module wouldn’t work normally.
      Besides, If the module is using a unique DOM id or using singleton pattern in its code, that kind also has the possibility of not working properly.

        @sean Alright, thank you! Both of these has node_helper.js, so I guess it’s that then!

          If you want a quick and dirty solution, copy the module folder, rename the copy and then change the module’s name to match the new module/folder name in all occurances (file names and within the code).
