Installing
Create a directory called biblio in the sites/all/modules directory, then place all of the files packaged with this module in that directory.
This module will auto-install the required database tables the first time you enable it on the admin/modules page. This will also setup a number of pre-defined publication types. These types can be changed or deleted on the admin/settings/biblio/types page (see advanced use).
Updating
First of all, back up your data. If something goes wrong, you will be able to roll back without losing anything.
IMPORTANT! If you are upgrading from one of the beta releases or RC1 to the latest version, you should follow these instructions.
Remove completely the directory with the previous version. If you keep both directories in the modules folder, Drupal will get confused.
Finally, unpack the new version of the module in your modules installation directory.
Basic configuration
A number of settings are available at admin/settings/biblio. They control how the author names are displayed, whether export links are added to pages and thenumber of entries per page to display.
The admin/settings/biblio/types page allows the the site administrator to set the default field titles and set which fields are common to all publication types. When a new publication type is added, it will contain all the common fields and any that are specifically activated (custom is checked). This also allows the admin to over ride any of the default settings for any given type.
Access control
Three permissions are controlable on the admin/access page. They are fairly self evident, they control who can create biblio entries, edit entries and who can import from file.
Uninstalling the module
Use these procedures to completely remove Biblio, its tables, settings and all related nodes.
- De-activate the module in the modules list (/admin/build/modules).
- Go to the uninstall page (/admin/build/modules/uninstall) and select Biblio module. It will only appear in this listing if it was de-activated first.
- Remove the biblio folder from your modules installation directory.
