Different module settings on different pages (blog module)

Hi there!

I wondering if there some way to get one module on different pages with different settings (appearance setup)?

For example I got blog module on the events page. It is displayed in full form with header and bodies of posts. Additionally I want to place this module to sidebar of all site with short teasers display setup. Hope I explained it clear.

No, module settings are for the instance of the feature, if you put the same instance of a feature on different pages it is still the same instance and will use the same settings. Not all features even support re-use on different pages, blog for example does not support this.

However, what you can do is use a Feed Manager instance on multiple pages. In the Feed Manager you can add the feed for the blog and you can configure the feed manager to only show an excerpt and links that go to the blog posts. 

Hope it helps,

Joe
