Workbench provides site contributors a way to easily create and find their own content.
Drupal provides a great framework for building functionality. Workbench helps harness content-focused features in one unified user interface. The goal is that a user does not need to learn Drupal in order to add content to the site.
Users need access to their account, their content, and to add new content. Instead of having to know how to navigate to My Account (/user/[uid]), Add content (node/add), and Find Content (admin/content), the user goes to My Workbench instead.
Simple changes like this help ease the learning curve for new users.
If you are using ImageField and ImageCache, you might have had hard times trying to get Scale And Crop to show what you actually want of your images.
That is what ImageField Focus was made for.
It allows you to tell ImageCache what portion of the image you want to focus to, and what portion you want to be cut out.
Key features
Extends ImageField's Image widget (no separate widget!)
Adds a new Focus Scale And Crop ImageCache action.
Adds a new Focus Crop ImageCache action.
Uses a new jQuery plugin that will soon be also available as a separate download.
Drupal's core Menu module allows nodes to place menu links (linking to the node) into the menu. The Menu Link (Field) module however allows entities of any type to place menu links into the menu using a field.
It's often useful to provide two versions of a given string: one that's intended for human viewing and another that's intended for use in database queries, URLs, and so on.
In Drupal, this is generally known as a 'Name' and 'Machine name' pair. Drupal 7 even provides a prefab FormAPI element to simplify the process of entering these matched pairs.
Safeword exposes a custom FieldAPI field type that stores two strings using the name/machine name approach. It can be useful when generating PathAuto aliases, exposing Views arguments, and so on.
One common use is to not give users permission to 'Create and edit URL aliases' and instead give them access to a Safeword field which uses the node title as it's source. So that users can only edit a limited part of the path, keeping safe the other parts that your site features may rely on.
This project intended to provide advanced upload pages for CCK FileField/ImageField nodes.
Intended to make correct images/media/other large files upload(using flash or html5/gecko possibilities).
Features:
- can create pages for different node types with filefield or imagefield fields.
- has individual settings for each node type - your can select field you want tou use in uploader
- after all is configured just go to /advupload pages and see links
- upload pages integrate into navigation menu
- can upload files up 2GB. There are some difficulties with filesize() function, so for now no more 2GB
- have token control to make upload more secure(e.g. it's not possible use upload scripts without tokens by hands :) )
- allow select node name when file is added
- allows upload all files to new node, as allows creation each new node per each file
Project use plupload library from plupload.com. For our purpoces I had to rewrite pluploadQueue form as I need.
- contains OG integration - only base og and og_access - user can select group and is material public or not.
Nearest plans:
1) create simple imagefield base gallery integration(with nodereference, etc)
2) port all to D7 - looks like on D7 I have to rewrite all completely cause of API difference
