Got this question this morning from the “Ask A Question” form.

“How do I make a change in an existing DotNetNuke module?  I want to add new fields to the feedback form.”

I’m assuming the question is about making changes to the module without touching the source code.

Yesterday I was asked a question that I thought was one thing and ended up being another.  But the question I thought it was is one worth answering here because it takes so darn long to find the answer.
