Administration tools

Small but effective module to configure which pages are to be considered administrative.

When a page is considered administrative the admin theme will be used. Also, when using the overlay module, administrative pages will open inside the overlay.

The Nice messages popup module changes how Drupals status, warning and error messages are showing up by giving flexible stylable nice looking fading little jQuery-popups like on Social networks at hand, provided by the small and fast jQuery jGrowl plugin. It can be activated globally or partially for certain pages / users and prevents the typical cluttering caused by error messages getting in the way by moving the grid and layout of a website up and down.

This module provides an alternate user interface for the Webform module, allowing you to create and edit webforms from within a slick, easy-to-use form building tool. It is heavily based off the excellent Form Builder project (which also provides its own Webform integration), but this module contains a number of additional features and a different interaction pattern.

This module was contributed by Acquia and is currently maintained (collectively) by the Acquia design and engineering teams. It is used in Drupal Gardens.

For more information, see the Drupal Gardens announcement or Dries Buytaert's blog post.

Features

• Create webform content and add/configure webform components all at once, within a single drag-and-drop interface
• Webform form settings are integrated with Drupal 7's vertical tabs interface element
• Automatic spam protection via Mollom

Makes it easier for editors to place their content exactly where they want it inside their menus.

This module adds a menu browser to the content forms. Users don't choose "parent" and "weight" for the menu item they are adding. Instead they choose a menu, and the menu gets loaded using ajax. The users then places the menu item inside the menu by clicking on the item they want to place the menu below. New menu items may also be placed as children of existing menu items.

The Menu Expanded module is a simple module designed to revert the changes made in

Drupal 7 has a new and efficient way of loading module and theme settings from the database. The new loader requires all settings to be stored in the current (serialized) format.

An unfortunate side effect is that any left-over settings from modules that did not clean up when they were uninstalled, and are not stored in the correct format, cause PHP notices on your site.

This may happen if you've for instance upgraded a site from Drupal 5, through Drupal 6 to Drupal 7.

This module lists all entries in the {variable} table that cause unwanted PHP notices on production sites, such as:

Notice: unserialize() [function.unserialize]: Error at offset 74 of 75 bytes in variable_initialize() (line 749 of /srv/www/<sitename>/includes/bootstrap.inc).

By knowing the offending variable name, you can remove it from the database, making the notice go away. Of course, you should probably notify the module or theme author that their module or theme does not properly clean up after itself.

If you find a variable that causes a problem, please note it in a comment on #1284364: Use variable_initialize() against broken values - Notice: unserialize() [function.unserialize]: .
