Drupal add-ons (modules) to consider for the Edubuntu website.

Note: This page lists all modules that sound useful, grouped by categories found on the drupal.org site, in alphabetical order. Also note, some of the module might not have been ported to work with the latest release yet (Drupal 5.x).

Drupal Core Modules

  • Form submit - rapidely clicking on the submit button of a form will result in duplication of nodes/users, see discussion and suggested solution at http://drupal.org/node/107358 alternatively, if an immediate solution is needed, try the 'form single' module http://drupal.org/project/formsingle

  • Upload - Don't enable this? Possibly use 'Attachment' and 'Filemanager' instead. Update: file handling in Drupal 5.1 is still sub-optimal, a new file api is being worked on... for the moment, we seem stuck with the built-in 'Upload', since 'Attachment' and 'Filemanager' won't be upgraded to work with 5.x

Administration

  • Google analytics
  • Pathauto module - http://drupal.org/project/pathauto

    • automatically generates path aliases for various kinds of content (nodes, categories, users) when no explicit alias is provided by the user.
  • Project (= issue tracker)

Content Construction Kit (CCK)

Community

  • Chatbox
  • Extended tracker
  • Organic Groups - http://drupal.org/project/og

    • Enable users to create and manage their own 'groups'. Each group can have subscribers, and maintains a group home page where subscribers communicate amongst themselves. They do so by posting the usual node types: blog, story, page, etc. A block is shown on the group home page which facilitates these posts. The block also provides summary information about the group.

Content

Content: Links

  • Link attach - http://drupal.org/node/24877

    • allows you to attach weblinks to other modules, requires the weblink module
  • Links package - http://drupal.org/node/24719

    • The Links Package is a multi-module set for managing URL links in a master directory, and attaching them in various ways to your content pages. It includes both an API for developers and user-visible content modules.
    • Note: this module is declared stable, but some features are still inoperable
  • Weblink - http://drupal.org/project/weblink

    • note: this is included in the Links Package, above
  • Janode - http://drupal.org/project/janode

    • Add links as nodes, includes a link checker for peridically checking for 404 errors
