SRU is a standard XML-focused search protocol for Internet search queries, utilizing CQL (Contextual Query Language), a standard syntax for representing queries.
This is a very simple module that exposes a 'redirect' task to the page manager module in the ctools suite. This allows you to define paths that can then redirect to others, all without writing any code. You can use this to do things like:
Redirect user profile nodes to the /user/X page that owns the profile
Redirect Images in a gallery to their node referenced gallery.
Page Manager Redirect (PMR) is now fully compatible with Drupal 7!
Differences from similar modules
There are a number of other modules that attempt to perform some kind of redirection based on paths. Page manager redirect is different because it can leverage the ctools context system to gather all sorts of useful information from the original URL to construct the redirection URL with. Genius!
Allows users to create block instances of predefined block types registered by other modules.
Features
Difference to core blocks:
Modules register block "types".
Administrators can spawn new instances of a block type.
Block instances are entities.
Unless a block type opts out, Block API takes over the storage of configuration settings per block instance.
Major ideas and parts for the block instance handling have been based and borrowed from JohnAlbin's excellent Menu block module.
An example API implementation is available in a hidden testing module, which provides the equivalent of custom blocks in core; i.e., a simple title and HTML body.
Block API itself provides no block types on its own.
