    Hi Stephen,

    I have a wiki with more categories.
    for example:
    Featured articles
    Category 1
    Category 2
    etc.

    I want to display this wiki on some different pages.
    On the start page a display the featured articles.
    On another page category 1
    Etc..

    For this I want to copy the instance of the wiki to the pages where I want to display these article.
    For the start page I want to display the wiki and make only the feature articles visable.

    However, when I copy the instance of the wiki to the start page then the wiki is empty.
    I can copy the wiki however it stays empty.
    What do I do wrong here?

    Regards, Ton

    Hi Ton

    I think if you were to place another module to a different page, you should use the Add existing module, but don't select the Copy. This allows the module to be "linked". If you create a copy, I don't think it will preserve the content because DNN doesn't tell the Wiki to copy all its content when copying this way.

    Secondly, wouldn't it be easier to just create a DNN page and set the page to redirect the URL to your Wiki desired topic? Every topic has a unique URL so you can just link it.

    Alternatively, just copy the content and recreate on another instance of the Wiki. It does double the work a bit though.

    I hope this helps.
