    Are there away to easy copy a Module from page to page?

    (I can't use "show on all pages" as the modules need to have some page specific information.)


    What I am trying to achieve is a simple "back to top" link.

    Have a big site, many long pages, and need to enter "back to top" and "home" hyperlinks.

    Either "com/home.aspx" or "..com/page.aspx".


    Any ideas?


    Thanks...

    If you use Oliver Hine's optimized control panel you can do this. This might also be in the new ribbon bar, but I'm not sure. Be aware, though, that copying modules may not copy all settings.

    Oh, one thought is that you might be able to create the links in a Text/HTML module and using replaceable tokens to provide the page-specific information.  If you can do that, you might be able to have one module on most pages.

    Not sure I really got the "replaceable tokens" think Joe??

    I found that this link work; "" #TopOfPage ""

    This alows me to use the "show on all pages" function, but then I have to go around and put the "TopOfPage" anchor on all pages.

    You should be able to put the anchor tag in a module, too.
