If you have lets say the forum module and maybe photo galleries can these modules be cloned so you have more than one forum module or photo galleries module ? If so what's the best way to do this ?

Yeah you could - you'd need to make sure all the places the module directory name used inside the module (i.e. jrGallery) was changed AND you'd want to modify the new modules init function (in include.php), but after that the core should see it as a "unique" module.

Make sure and check out Aparna if you haven't:

It's designed for creating new "modules" by cloning itself and letting you customize the forms and views that are created.

Hope this helps!
