      Hi colleagues,
      I’m trying to have several modules with the same name on different pages, for example on page 1 newsfeed with news from Spiegel.de and on page 2 newsfeed with a different content…and may be more newsfeeds on following pages.
      Weeks ago I saw a way to duplicate a module and give it a new name…but I can’t remember where.
      Any help is welcome.
      Greetings
      Thomas

            If i remember, for newsfeed it’s different because it’s a default module

            duplicate newsfeed as default/newsfeed2
            and add default/newsfeed2 in defaultmodules.js
            add the module in config.js and restart mm

              @chassain…checked it without any reaction. I also added it as MMM-newsfeed in modules-folder and in config.js…but nothing happened.

                @chassain-0 said in MMM-pages - modules with same name on different pages:

                and add default/newsfeed2 in defaultmodules.js
                add the module in config.js and restart mm

                you do not need to (and should not) edit the defaultmodules.js file

                just use
                {
                module: “default/newsfeed2”
                etc
                }

                      Hi again,

                      Non of these proposals work for me…or I’m too dump to understand it. I made different attemps: copied newsfeed2 parallel to newsfeed in the default-folder and added “default/newsfeed2” to config.js - no success. Then I made a default-folder under default - no success. I also tried “newsfeed2” in config.js - no success.
                      In any combination I change newsfeed.js to newsfeed2.js without success. Can someone with a running newsfeed-doublette enter a screenshot of the folder-structure and the config.js?
                      Thank you in advance
                      Thomas

                        don’t forget to change the name inside the file newsfeed2.js
