Module settings allows those with Admin privileges to manage the module aspects of their website. These aspects control the behavior, view ability, and much more of each individual module. Access your Module Settings by finding a small triangle image normally at the top left of the module or left of the title, scroll over that image and a menu should display, click 'Settings'. Don't forget to make sure you are in 'Edit' mode to view the small triangle image, found in the top left of your control panel.
