Content

Wysiwyg

Allows to use client-side editors to edit content. It simplifies the installation and integration of the editor of your choice. This module replaces all other editor integration modules. No other Drupal module is required.

Wysiwyg module is capable to support any kind of client-side editor. It can be a HTML-editor (a.k.a. WYSIWYG), a pseudo-editor (buttons to insert markup into a textarea), or even Flash-based applications. The editor library needs to be downloaded separately. Various editors are supported (see below).

Wysiwyg module also provides an abstraction layer for other Drupal modules to integrate with any editor. This means that other Drupal modules can expose content-editing functionality, regardless of which editor you have installed.

Discussions happen in the Wysiwyg group, but also in IRC #drupal-wysiwyg.

FileField

FileField provides a universal file upload field for CCK. It is a robust alternative to core's Upload module and an absolute must for users uploading a large number of files. Great for managing video and audio files for podcasts on your own site.

Features

• Configurable upload paths allow you to save files into per-field or per-user directories
• Per-field and per-node file size limits
• Extensive API for extending field widgets and managing files
• Full revision/translation file management
• Views support
• Ajax Uploads (and progress bar support with the PECL uploadprogress extension)
• Pretty Icons
• All the goodness of CCK (multiple output formats, shared fields, multiple values, and much more)

ImageField

ImageField provides an image upload field for CCK. ImageField is a CCK-based alternative to the legacy Image project. It boasts features such as multiple images per node, resolution restrictions, default images, and extensive Views support.

ImageField does not provide a built-in thumbnail solution, but complements the incredibly powerful thumbnail generation module ImageCache.

ImageField related projects

• ImageCache - Dynamic thumbnail generation.
• ImageField Extended - Add additional data to images other than the default Description, Title and Alt.
• ImageField Focus - Define custom focus and crop areas to be combined with ImageCache.
• ImageField Crop - Crop images permanently after upload.
• Image FUpload - Bulk image uploader.

Date

This package contains both a flexible date/time field type Date field and a Date API that other modules can use.

The D5 and D6 versions of the Date field require the Content Construction Kit (CCK) module. The D7 version works with the core Field functionality.

Link

Module description

The link module can be count to the top 50 modules in Drupal installations and provides a standard custom content field for links. With this module links can be added easily to any content types and profiles and include advanced validating and different ways of storing internal or external links and URLs. It also supports additional link text title, site wide tokens for titles and title attributes, target attributes, css class attribution, static repeating values, input conversion, and many more.

Requirements / Dependencies

1. Drupal 6: Custom content module (CCK)
2. Drupal 7: Fields API is provided already by core [no dependencies].

Global Redirect

What?

GlobalRedirect is a simple module which…

1. Checks the current URL for an alias and does a 301 redirect to it if it is not being used.
2. Checks the current URL for a trailing slash, removes it if present and repeats check 1 with the new request.
3. Checks if the current URL is the same as the site_frontpage and redirects to the frontpage if there is a match.
4. Checks if the Clean URLs feature is enabled and then checks the current URL is being accessed using the clean method rather than the 'unclean' method.
5. Checks access to the URL. If the user does not have access to the path, then no redirects are done. This helps avoid exposing private aliased node's.
6. Make sure the case of the URL being accessed is the same as the one set by the author/administrator. For example, if you set the alias "articles/cake-making" to node/123, then the user can access the alias with any combination of case.
7. Most of the above options are configurable in the settings page. In Drupal 5 you can access this after enabling the globalredirect_admin module. In Drupal 6, the settings page is bundled into the module.

CKEditor - WYSIWYG HTML editor

This module will allow Drupal to replace textarea fields with the CKEditor - a visual HTML editor, sometimes called WYSIWYG editor. This HTML text editor brings many of the powerful WYSIWYG editing functions of known desktop editors like Word to the web. It's very fast and doesn't require any kind of installation on the client computer.

What is CKEditor?

CKEditor is the next version of FCKeditor. The editor has been rebranded and completely rewritten. It is now much faster (the code has been optimized), loads faster (the number of files has been reduced, so the browser will perform less HTTP requests) and developers friendly.

• End user features
• Developer features

Image

This module allows users with proper permissions to upload images into Drupal. Thumbnails and additional sizes are created automatically.

Images could be posted individually to the front page, included in stories or grouped in galleries.

Components

Image module ships with several add-on modules:

• Image Gallery: Using taxonomy terms, organize and display your uploaded pictures in galleries (include Views support if you have Views 6.x-2.6 or later).
• Image Attach: Allows you to easily attach image nodes to other node types.
• Image Import: Simplify adding multiple images by importing images from a directory on the server.
• ImageMagick Advanced: Adds advanced ImageMagick options such as image sharpening to the ImageMagick image toolkit. This component is unsupported.

Page Title

The word "title" is a bit overloaded. Every piece of content in Drupal has a title, and so does every page. The page title is the one found in the HTML head inside the <title> tag. It is also used on SERPs (Search Engine Result Pages) and can greatly enhance your websites SEO (Search Engine Optimization).

This module gives you granular control over the page title. You can specify patterns for how the title should be structured and, on content creation pages, specify the page title separately to the content's title.

Simplenews

Simplenews publishes and sends newsletters to lists of subscribers. Both anonymous and authenticated users can opt-in to different mailing lists. HTML email can be sent by adding Mime Mail module.

Vertical Tabs

#D7CX This module got into core and will only be available as a back-port version for Drupal 6.

Provides vertical tabs like http://drupal.geek.nz/static/node-form/default/summaries2.html on the node add form.

This module provides the following features:

• Vertical tabifying all node forms.
• Vertical tabifying the content type forms.
• Vertical tabifying the block forms.
• Specialized CSS for Garland, as well as generic CSS for other themes
• Color module support when both Garland and color.module are used
• Vertical tabbed forms and fieldsets are over-ridable by using your site's settings.php and $conf. For more information see #644790-7: Simplify the module and integrate with form_controller to allow customizations.
• When used in combination with Form module allows you to configure vertical tabs on all possible forms.

Scheduler

This module allows nodes to be published and unpublished on specified dates.

Email Field

This module provides a field type for email addresses.

Features:

• validation of emails
• turns addresses into mailto links
• encryption of email addresses with
  • Invisimail (Drupal 5 + 6)
  • SpamSpan (Drupal 6 only)
• contact form (see Display settings)
• provides Tokens (for D7: use Entity tokens from the Entity API)
• exposes fields to Views
• can be used with Rules
• Panels Integration

D6 to D7 Upgrade

1. Run Core upgrade path
2. Install Content Migrate from CCK
3. Go to "Structure" -> "Migrate Fields"
4. Select Email fields you want to upgrade and submit the "Migrate selected fields" button
5. If some content doesn't show up after upgrading, re-save the formatter under "Manage Display".

Automatic Nodetitles

"auto_nodetitle" is a small and efficient module that allows hiding of the content title field in the form. To prevent empty content title fields one can configure it to generate the title by a given pattern.

Embedded Media Field

Maintainers: aaron (Aaron Winborn) and Alex UA (Alex Urevick-Ackelsberg)

This extensible module will create fields for content types that can be used to display video, image, and audio files from various third party providers. When entering the content, the user will simply paste the URL or embed code from the third party, and the module will automatically determine which content provider is being used. When displaying the content, the proper embedding format will be used.

The module is only an engine, and requires a supported module to function. These include 'Embedded Image Field', 'Embedded Video Field' and 'Embedded Audio Field'. These modules are included in the contrib folder of the module, so they can be easily activated from the module administration page.

Please note: As of emfield 2.x, provider files for these modules are no longer included with the main emfield module, and must be downloaded separately- please see the list of projects providing provider files below.

Modules extending Embedded Media Field

The following modules work in conjunction with this project, largely to expose media providers (you'll need at least one of these to make the module useful):

Media: 8Tracks
Media: Archive

Content Profile

This module builds user profiles as content (aka nodes), which opens the opportunity to use all the powerful modules for content for user profiles too, e.g. the Content Construction Kit (CCK). It's intended to be simple and useful, but extensible by further modules.

Content profiles can be restricted to certain roles; the module also supports separate content profiles for different roles.

Similar By Terms

This Drupal module attempts to provide context for content items by displaying a block with links to other similar content. Similarity is based on the taxonomy terms assigned to content. Blocks are available based on similarity within each of the defined vocabularies for a site as well as a block for similarity within all vocabularies.

What does this really mean? How should you use this module?

1) Create a freetagging vocabulary called "Tags" assigned to the content types on which you'd like to display the "Similar" block.
2) Enable the block called "Similar entries from the Tags vocabulary".
3) Add keyword tags to the content.

Done!

Now when you go to the page for a tagged content item, a block will show up displaying other content in descending order of common tags (terms).

Similar By Terms 2

Similar By Terms 2 is a complete rewrite of Similar By Terms as a Views plug-in. It offers much more flexibility than the original version. The module provides a default view which exposes a block which should function exactly the same as Similar By Terms 1. However, Views can be customized or cloned to add different fields, filters, output formats, or any of the good stuff we've come to expect from Views.

Mollom

Mollom is an "intelligent" content moderation web service. By monitoring content activity on all sites in the Mollom network, Mollom is in a unique position to determine if a post is potentially spam; not only based on the posted content, but also on the past activity and reputation of the poster. In short, Mollom handles incoming posts intelligently, in much the same way a human moderator decides what posts are acceptable. Therefore, Mollom enables you to allow anonymous users to post comments and other content on your site.

Media

The Media module provides an extensible framework for managing files and multimedia assets, regardless of whether they are hosted on your own site or a 3rd party site - it is commonly referred to as a 'file browser to the internet'.

Media is a drop-in replacement for the Drupal core upload field with a unified User Interface where editors and administrators can upload, manage, and reuse files and multimedia assets. Any files uploaded before Media was enabled will automatically take advantage of for many of the features it comes with.

Media's aim is to solve Drupal's long standing media handling problem.

What is the difference between 1.x and 2.x?

The 7.x-1.x version is the stable and recommended version for most users and production sites. It has reached feature freeze and will not be getting any new features, only bug fixes.

The 7.x-2.x version offers a lot of new improvements and is currently the active development version for new features. The File entity module has been split out of Media and into its own separate module. New features like Views integration and UI improvements are also being added. Bugs fixed in 7.x-2.x will also be fixed in 7.x-1.x if possible.

Content Access

What is Content Access?

Yet another content access module.

This module allows you to manage permissions for content types by role and author. It allows you to specifiy custom view, edit and delete permissions for each content type. Optionally you can enable per content access settings, so you can customize the access for each content node.

Features

• It comes with sensible defaults, so you need not configure anything and everything stays working
• It is as flexible as you want. It can work with per content type settings, per content node settings as well as with flexible Access Control Lists.
• It tries to reuse existing functionality instead of reimplementing it. So one can install the ACL module and set per user access control settings per content node.
  Furthermore the module provides conditions and actions for workflow-ng / rules, which allows one to configure even rule-based access permissions.
• It optimizes the written content node grants, so that only the really necessary grants are written. This is important for the performance of your site.
• It takes access control as important as it is. E.g. the module has a bunch of simpletests to ensure everything is working right.

Content Templates (Contemplate)

NOTE: This module *may* be deprecated in Drupal 7 !

Here's your reason, basically the theming changes in D7 mean the field theming gets bound a lot lot later in the process, so it's not possible to generate the output into a Textarea for you to edit - that said, it is possible that we can come at this from another angle and use tokens instead BUT it means what you see in contemplate admin page will be nothing at all similar to the output.

You can view more on taking this module forwards here http://drupal.org/node/1285558

-----

The Content Template (a.k.a. ConTemplate) module allows modification of Drupal's teaser and body fields using administrator defined templates. These templates use PHP code and all of the node object variables are available for use in the template. An example node object is displayed and it is as simple as clicking on its properties to add them to the current template.

Media: YouTube

The Drupal 6 version

Provides support for the YouTube video provider for Embedded Media Field.

Note that if you're using the Media Mover module, this will also add the capability to send harvested videos to YouTube and store the resulting video in your Embedded Video Field! .

Important
The Drupal 6 version currently only works with the 6.x-2.x-dev (or greater) branch of Embedded Media Field until #725940: Cannot redeclare provider files when enabling media: provider modules is resolved.

Also the Drupal 6 version is only known to be compatible with the 6.x-1.x branch of Media Mover. See #1050566: Media Youtube for MM 2.x for more information.

The Drupal 7 version

Creates a YouTube PHP Stream Wrapper for Resource and implements the various formatter and file listing hooks in the Media module.

Node clone

The clone module allows users to make a copy of an existing item of site content (a node) and then edit that copy. The authorship is set to the current user, the menu and url aliases are reset, and the words "Clone of" are inserted into the title to remind you that you are not editing the original content.

ImageCache Profiles

ImageCache_Profiles module allows you to set user profile pictures that are consistent throughout your site and allows avatars on the user profile pages, nodes and comments to be a different size.

Drupal 6 version now supports Views 2 formatters to display user profile pictures through imagecache presets!

Requirements for Drupal 6 version:

• ImageCache

Please help to test a new 6.x-1.4rc1 release before rolling out 6.x-1.4

Drupal 7 version

• uses Image styles from core image.module
• Views support for Drupal 7 works - would be included into views module when rc2 released #1234414: Support image styles in the User: Picture field
• Needs a bit of changes in README.txt and docs page #994314: Documentation fixes

Should this module provide a per-node setting for profile pictures?
Please post your opinion - #760900: Large main photo on profile page and default preset for all other photos

Flag

Flag is a flexible flagging system that is completely customizable by the administrator. Using this module, the site administrator can provide any number of flags for nodes, comments, or users. Some possibilities include bookmarks, marking important, friends, or flag as offensive. With extensive views integration, you can create custom lists of popular content or keep tabs on important content.

Flags may be per-user, meaning that each user can mark an item individually, or global, meaning that the item is either marked or it is not marked, and any user who changes that changes it for everyone.

In this way, additional flags (similar to published and sticky) can be put on nodes, or other items, and dealt with by the system however the administration likes.
