Custom Page Layouter
Custom Page Layouter provides a simple inline interface for resizing and sorting elements on a Custom Page. This module provides both: an easy object oriented way to configure pages for developers, and an intuitive Drag & Drop interface for users.
Use case
Your clients want a fancy web 2.0 frontpage with many different blocks, lists and other elements. So you create a Custom Page, to display all your views and nodes. Everything works just fine, but suddenly your client says: I want to have view X for the next two weeks at the top position.
You could check your theme out, edit the template file and deploy it, every time your client wants one little change. Or you could use Custom Page Layouter, and your client can Drag & Drop view X at position whatever.
Why not use panels?
Panels are too complex for clients who only want to add and manage content. Custom Page provides a simple and powerful way to create custom layouts, however without the ability to change them without editing the templatefile. Custom Page Layouter takes care of this.
Custom Page Layouter & Domain Acess
Custom Page Layouter can save individual configurations not only for templates but also for domains.
For developers
- Create a simple Custom Page (e.g. "frontpage.tpl.php")
