Hello everyone!

I've been noticing some CCK thing being discussed on many, many occasions. So now I'm curious, what is this CCK?

CCK is a module. Its long form is Content Construction Kit. Hence CCK and can be found in the downloads area, in its own category, as it has quite a modules which allow you to add all kinds of fields for content createtion.

at its very simplest, it's a module that allows you to create new content types (and extend existing content types). it allows you to add/modify/remove fields from these content types. these fields may be text, numbers, dates, images, computed values, references to other content, and much more.

Also have a look at the CCK handbook, http://drupal.org/node/101723

Hello everyone,

Thank you for your response about the whole CCK thing. I've just seen many, many, many posts about the topic and was never really sure if it was a module, some code, or some reference to an out of space invader. Now I know. Thank you.
