The Block edit module provides inline (on mouseover) editing capability for any block or node.

Configure block/menu/node settings directly by clicking a Views' style link above the block/node.

Topic Hubs

What are Topic Hubs?

Harnessing the power of Calais tagging, administrators can create Topic Hubs based on site’s most popular tags. Topic hubs are highly configurable and contain a series of pluggable content modules, like “Most Read” content for this topic, “Most Commented” stories, most active contributors, and links to other related topics. To top it off, integration with Calais Geo allows for plotting all of your content for a Topic Hub content on a map.

For example, a topic hub of “healthcare” may have related topics of “homeopathy” and “medicine”. Through topic hubs, readers can explore all content related to subjects they are interested in. And, different from other news topic pages, these are configured automatically instead of being curated by editorial staff.

Topic Hubs 6.x-1.x iintegrates with Panels2 for full control over layout and content.

Topic Hubs 6.x-2.x iintegrates with Panels3.

OG Taxonomy

OG Taxonomy is essentially an extension of views that allows filtering of a view by a node's group's taxonomy terms (as opposed to the node's taxonomy terms).

Finder

Examples of Node Finders using an Autocomplete element.

Finder allows Drupal site administrators to create flexible faceted search forms to find entities such as nodes or users based on the values of fields and database attributes.

Taxonomy Node

It creates a single node of a configurable content type for each term in a specific vocabulary.

In this way you can extend the term to hold any other information that a node (cck preferably) can hold. It's an useful module to create different category listings using views. This module prevent you to edit or delete the created node, handles updates and deletion of terms.

It also handles hierarchy by automatically assigning the vocabulary to the set content type and maintaining the hierarchy on the node as well.

It has some similarities to the Node Auto Term [NAT] module but by working two ways. The only thing this module does not support in comparison to NAT is to map node creation with term creation. This module can, as per its default, to map node operations with terms, meaning that if you delete the node, the term is also deleted as well.

Upgrade Notes for Drupal 5.x

CuteMenu

Open CuteMenu with image in header and a selected menu item with its title showing.

Description

When installing CuteMenu you get one CuteMenu block per menu. The block is a top-menu with a drop down (using the 1st and 2nd level menu items.)

Using a CuteMenu block generates HTML using many <div> tags so one can really nicely theme the menu the way they want it to be without having to write code for it. The result is that you can dearly beautify the menu.

CuteMenu shows the selected menus as dropdowns, including a header and a footer. Although only two levels are shown—top bar & one vertical drop down—your can include images in the header and footer of the drop down.

This module is sponsored by Made to Order Software Corp.

Dropdown Menu and Flash Animations in FireFox & clones

I have had that issue for years. A dropdown menu will draw a widget with a Z index higher than the other items on the screen. This is how you see them on top. Neat. But with Firefox or SeaMonkey, a Flash animation, no matter what, would always remain on top. This is because the animation is shown in a separate window (X11 or MS-Windows window, not just rendered over.) This is great because that way it is faster. But it breaks the dropdown menu feature...
