What do you mean by this?

The same user accessing it twice, under the same name?

Under different name, but accessing the same data tables?

Under different name, but accessing different tables?

Most of the time, you'll need to clone it.

Hi Mamba!

I would like to have another TDMDownloads module installed. Separate from the other install.
So .. can I just copy the TDMDownloads folder, rename it and install that ?
I was looking at the sql install file for TDMDownloads and I think it will install the same tables, that is why I asked.

If the "clone" function is not built in (like in Publisher), the best way is to run "search & replace", and change TDMDownolad to something else, like "chcoDownoald"

Then you'll have to rename the tables, and run again search & replace to make sure that none of the "old" names are left out in any of the functions.

Also, make sure that none of the files contain any of the "old" names in their names, e.g. if there is a file called:

TDMDownloadcheck.php

it should be changed to:

chcoDownloadcheck.php

And then test and test and test

Ok thanks! I thought I'd ask before I went down that road.

Cloning TDMdownloads is a 'hell'.
How difficult would it be to build in a clone feature like publisher has?
Is there a/the developer/coder who can manage to make it possible?

I don't know, but I would love to see all XOOPS module being clonable like Publisher is.

I have renamed TDMDownloads with the search and replace method and it works like a charm. But I don't recommending it. Because there will be problems to update the module later if a new version will be released.
I love Xoops!

Can you make your clone available for download?
Second question:
Which words (and files) etc. needed to be renamed.
I myself cloned during the last years several modules. Some where easy, some where a hell. Only renaming de modules names and html files wasn't enough. Speccially when it comes to permission rights.

Would be great if you enlighten what you've al renamed for thius module. I tried it, but somehow I couldn't get my clone working right.

Thanks in advance

Sorry, have forgot about this thread.

I used this to rename the file structure: http://www.1-4a.com/rename/

and this to search and replace inside the files: http://www.replsoft.com/

Here can you download my module renamed 'movies: http://www.speedyshare.com/JAKQY/movies.zip

No problems so far.
