Video 1 of this tutorial says to get the module ID by looking the URL when you are editing the settings of that module.

However, this doesn't work in DNN 7 since the module settings come up in a pop-up window. How can I get the module IDs in DNN7?

I have looked in the TabModules table of the database, but my site is very large and complex, with many copies of the same module, many of them with default module titles, so it's very difficult to tell that way.

DNN puts markers in the page HTML. You will see things like:
<!-- Start_Module_570 -->


The easiest way to do this in Chrome is to right click on the module title and select Inspect Element. Then, you should be able to scroll up a few lines to find that marker. In this case, I was looking at Module 570.
