This is not true. You can perfectly use the ThisTag scope with cfmodule.
In fact, I do it all the time. You have to be carefull with nesting
<cfmodule>s.

One problem with cfmodule is that you cannot take advantage of the
ThisTag type functionality you get from using the different execution
modes. In other words you can't have tags like

<cf_MyCustomTag>
blah blah
</cf_MyCustomTag>

I think someone else alluded to it, but starting with CF5 you can add
additional custom tag paths via the CF administrator. when you call
<cf_MyCustomTag> CF will search the depth of the custom tag tree(s)
looking for a file called MyCustomTag.cfm. If you have 2 tags with the
same name it will use the first one it finds (you will see warnings
about this in one of the server logs).

Subject: Quick question on custom tags


Is it possible to call a custom tag that resides in a folder other than
the current folder.

I am using <cf_cf_formurl2attributes> but I would like to have one copy
residing in a "commonfiles" folder at root. This would take something
like <../cf_cf_formurl2attributes>  right?  It doesn't seem to work.

Any help is appreciated.
