Content Construction Kit (CCK)

· · ·
JonBob - February 7, 2006 - 23:35

The Content Construction Kit allows you to add custom fields to nodes using a web browser.

Important: D6 upgrade information

  • D5 => D6: Before upgrading your site to Drupal 6, you must upgrade CCK to version 5.x-1.9 and run all updates. Updating to 5.x-1.9 is especially important before an upgrade because that version includes a fix to ensure you don't lose data when you disable modules in preparation for the upgrade.
  • D4.7 => D6: not supported. Straight upgrade from CCK D4.7 to CCK D6 is not supported. You need to update your site to Drupal 5 and CCK 5.x-1.9 as an intermediate step.

Announcements

  • Branch Status Updates
    • CCK 4.7.x is no longer supported. This has effectively been the case for some time now. We just wanted to make it official.
    • CCK 5.x is feature frozen. Issues in the 4.7.x to 5.x update functions will be given priority, since 4.7.x is no longer supported.
    • CCK 6.x-2.x is under active development. The latest -dev version of CCK only works with the latest -dev version of Views!
    • CCK 7.x is under active develeopment.

-------------------------------

Several contributed projects provide additional field types and widgets for CCK:

  • computed field: lets you add a PHP-driven "computed field" to CCK node types
  • date: creates an ISO or unix timestamp date field
  • email: validated email field
  • image field: an image field
  • link: a URL field

Other modules related to CCK:

  • content template (contemplate): allows for control over the form and display of fields, including teaser and RSS feeds
  • views: provides many types of listings of content; CCK exposes its fields to the Views system.

The list of CCK modules continues to grow. View a complete list of CCK-related modules in the downloads section.
