Same Module in use TWICE with different names?

Got a good question. probably been answered here before but im not sure what query to SEARCH for so.

I have a module i can use for TWO different things in my site
I wanted to know
if i want to use the same module for two things
once called ( WFLINKS )for placing company links and information

Can i also use it for say
RECIPES
but just rename the module to RECIPES and then upload it with its new name

once i install it. the DB querrits wouldnt conflict with the WFLINKS SQL tables would it?

id say it would not work, it uses the db, and without changing the db tables they will both install on the same ones, im not an expert tho.

i rekon to do this you would have to change the sql file, entries in xoopsversion to have new table names, and then switch every reference to this table name in the module.

prob not that hard to do, im pretty new to this too tho, so best find out for sure, if you have a test site, give it a go, but i doubt it will work.

sb..

XOOPS Version - XOOPS 2.3.2
