Creating A Global Module – Venn Digital

Global modules are a great way to save time on CMS. If you find yourself in a position where you are setting up the same module multiple times to only display the same information, it may be worth setting up a global module instead.

Global modules are normal modules that are used on multiple pages across a website with the same information shown in every place. Editing the content in one place will change the content in every use of the global module.

Setting up global modules couldn't be easier. In the Vennture CMS, click web pages from the menu on the left-hand side, then navigate to the page that contains the module you want to turn into a global module.

Once you've found the module, click on the module and select the cog icon.

This will bring up the module's settings, where we can now convert it to a global module for use across the site.

Populate the module name field with something that can uniquely identify this module, check the "Make this module re-usable on other pages" box, and hit save.

Please note: The module name cannot contain spaces instead please use hyphens -

Once saved, your new global module is ready to be used across your site on any page. To learn how to add your new global module to a page, check out the following help guide: Adding a global module
