Actually, I still have the problem. I thought it was because of the problems with the Advanced Module Manager, but this turns out not to be the case. They think that perhaps the multiple occurrences were already occurring before but that this was not creating a problem. Indeed they were surprised that it was seemingly not possible to have multiple occurrences of the slideshow on the same page.
The fact is that I have slideshows being called in the articles which appear on the front page. These individual slideshows are set in the advanced module manager to not appear on the front page itself. However, because Modules Anywhere is set to "Ignore Module Assignments" = yes, they are nevertheless coming up to some extent on the front page. If I set "Ignore Module Assignments"to no, then the slideshows don't appear in the articles.
The strange thing is that I didn't have this problem until very recently. I hadn't really thought about the logic of it all, because it was working.
Do you have any ideas? My basic need is to have one Slideshow CK module displaying normally on the front page and many articles, each containing one [Modules anywhere] call to a Slideshow CK module, without these modules displaying anywhere else, especially on the front page, if possible without having to edit all of my numerous modules!
