Mirror Module components?

Hi Modano dev team

Is it technically possible to mirror individual module components? I know it's not a feature in the current version (i'm not sure if it can be achieved using the API?) and a similar outcome can be achieve using Categories Layout Section on a category block but this does not allow (understandingly) categories to be inserted.

Hi Tarjei,

The short answer is no. But it wouldn't be hard to add this functionality, as it could leverage the existing duplicate/mirror module functionality.

Where it gets tricky is managing the module linking impacts of duplicating and mirroring components... What would you expect to happen to precedent and dependent module links within the newly-created module component(s) following duplication/mirroring?

Our current view is that a duplicate module component would behave identically to duplicating a single component module...

Is there any good reason why you can't use a single component module as category to achieve the same outcome?
