Token Tokens are small bits of text that can be placed into larger documents via simple placeholders, like %site-name or [user]. The Token module provides a central API for modules to use these tokens, and expose their own token values. Note that Token module doesn't provide any visible functions to the user on its own, it just provides token handling services for other modules. For Drupal 6, the Token module provides a "Token Actions" module which can be enabled separately. This provides several "actions" for the Drupal core Actions/Trigger modules to use that take advantage of the Token replacement functionality. Modules that use the Token module and provide tokens via the API include Organic Groups, Pathauto, Comment Notify, and Commerce. Pledges #D7CX: The basic token API is now a part of Drupal 7! #D7AX - I pledge to make this module as accessible as it can be.
ImageAPI This API is meant to be used in place of the API provided by image.inc. You probably do not need to install this module unless another module are you using requires it. It provides no new features to your Drupal site. It only provides an API other modules can leverage. Currently GD2 and ImageMagick support are distributed with ImageAPI. This module is specifically for Drupal 6 and older. Differences from Drupal core's image.inc Images are objects.Images are not written on each image operation and must be explicitly closed when processing is complete. Related Modules XML sitemap The XML sitemap module creates a sitemap that conforms to the sitemaps.org specification. This helps search engines to more intelligently crawl a website and keep their results up to date. The sitemap created by the module can be automatically submitted to Ask, Google, Bing (formerly Windows Live Search), and Yahoo! search engines. The module also comes with several submodules that can add sitemap links for content, menu items, taxonomy terms, and user profiles. Please read the included README.txt, the handbook documentation, and the current list of known issues for more information before using the module. Development roadmap The 6.x-2.x branch is a complete refactoring with considerations for performance, scalability, and reliability. Upgrade Paths Before upgrading, make sure to backup your site's database. To upgrade from version 6 to version 7, please make sure you use a 6.x-2.x to 7.x-2.0-rc1 path. Special thanks to:
Transliteration Provides one-way string transliteration (romanization) and cleans file names during upload by replacing unwanted characters. Generally spoken, it takes Unicode text and tries to represent it in US-ASCII characters (universally displayable, unaccented characters) by attempting to transliterate the pronunciation expressed by the text in some other writing system to Roman letters. According to Unidecode, from which most of the transliteration data has been derived, "Russian and Greek seem to work passably. Do I need to use transliteration for uploaded files? This question can't be generally answered, rather it depends on what you want to do with user submitted file uploads. you let users upload files to your site and offer these files as download without PHP processing, and you're on Drupal 6 or later, and not using a Windows-based web server. However, whenever you want to process uploaded files on the server, you most likely need transliteration. Credits Authors: Stefan M. Current maintainer:
Printer, e-mail and PDF versions This module allows you to generate the following printer-friendly versions of any node: Printer-friendly version (webpage format) (at www.example.com/print/nid)PDF version (at www.example.com/printpdf/nid)EPUB version (at www.example.com/printepub/nid)Send by email (at www.example.com/printmail/nid) where nid is the node id of content to render. Important: The current versions of the module require at least Drupal 6.11 or 7.0. They will not work in older versions. By editing the default print.css or specifying your own CSS file and/or the print.tpl.php files, it is possible to change the look of the output page to suit your taste. Drupal 6: print[_html|_mail|_pdf][.node-node-type].tpl.php located in either the current theme or the module directory. Drupal 7: print[--html|--mail|--pdf][--node--node-type].tpl.php located in the current theme directory. Where node-type is Drupal's node type (e.g. page, story, etc.). You must install one of the following third-party tools to generate PDFs:
SEO Compliance Checker The SEO Compliance Checker checks node content on search engine optimization upon its creation or modification. Whenever a publisher saves or previews a node, the module performs a set of checks and gives the user a feedback on the compliance of the rules. This module is supported by the UFirst Group. seo_checker.module The core module seo_checker doesn't implement any checks. Submodules The module comes along with two submodules (basic_seo_rules.module and keyword_rules.module) that implement checks for some basic SEO rules. The submodule keyword_rules.module requires a text field on the node where you enter your keywords. If you have ideas for further SEO rules this module should check, feel free to post them to #420312: Ideas and patches for further rules. Use jquery_ui for nice Sliders in Drupal 6 While Drupal 7 comes with jQuery UI included, Drupal 6 still requires you to install an additional module called jquery_ui.

SEO Checklist Drupal SEO Checklist - What is it? The Drupal SEO Checklist uses Drupal SEO best practices to check your website for proper search engine optimization. It eliminates guesswork by creating a functional to-do list of modules and tasks that remain. Updated regularly with the latest techniques, it makes on-page Drupal search engine optimization hassle-free. It breaks the tasks down into functional needs like Title Tags, Paths, Content and many more. Next to each task is a link to download the module from D.o and a link to the proper admin screen of your website so that you can configure the settings perfectly.

Views You need Views if You like the default front page view, but you find you want to sort it differently. You like the default taxonomy/term view, but you find you want to sort it differently; for example, alphabetically. You use /tracker, but you want to restrict it to posts of a certain type. You like the idea of the 'article' module, but it doesn't display articles the way you like. Views can do a lot more than that, but those are some of the obvious uses of Views. Views for Drupal 8 Views is in Drupal 8 Core! Recommended versions of Views! For new installs of Drupal 6, we recommend the 6.x-3.x branch. The 6.x-2.x branch of Views is in critical/security maintenance mode only. Dependencies The Drupal 7 version of Views requires the Chaos Tool Suite also known as CTools. Views' bug squad The Views' bug squad is a group of people who have dedicated a few hours a week to help provide support and fix bugs in the issue queue.
