So, I have just set up a new Drupal 7 website (I have used Drupal multiple times in the past, obviously because it's awesome), and I have realized I want some features that do not come with Drupal by default. Now, I'm not just coming and asking without first doing some research, so keep in mind, I have looked around to find modules that implement the functionality I require, just without success.
So, I'll just get right to that list:
-
First and last name in profile and used for post attribution ("by")
-
I need it to require this information on account creation
-
I have tried using the modules:
-
Restrict forums to authenticated members
-
Permissions only allow you to show all published content or none, can't just restrict forums
-
Embeddable google calendar.
For showing real names, the profile2 module does fine for adding the fields to the profile and registration, but does not set them as tokens, therefore the realname module cannot use them.
For restricting the forums, I know you can easily make it so the link to them only appears to authenticated members, but the path still exists. I need it so that unauthenticated members cannot access the forums.
