Date This package contains both a flexible date/time field type Date field and a Date API that other modules can use. The D5 and D6 versions of the Date field require the Content Construction Kit (CCK) module. The D7 version works with the core Field functionality. D8 includes Date in core. The Drupal Handbook pages are at Date/Calendar Documentation. Be sure to read Debugging Information before reporting a problem. Get Involved Help us to solve issues! D8 Version The D8 branch is being upgraded with a hope to getting some of it into core. D7 Version Due to work on getting Date into Drupal 8 core, the D7 version is currently being minimally maintained. Please see #2074655: Assign Co-Maintainership [Mark Date/Calendar modules as unsupported] if you are able to help with on-going maintenance. D7 Notes I've added preliminary support for SQLLite and SQLServer. Token support is not working in D7. D7 Videos/Tutorials D6 Version D6 Notes PHP 4, 5.0, & 5.1 are no longer actively supported.

Fences | drupal.org - (Private Browsing) Fences is a an easy-to-use tool to specify an HTML element for each field. This element choice will propagate everywhere the field is used, such as teasers, RSS feeds and Views. You don't have to keep re-configuring the same HTML element over and over again every time you display the field. Best of all, Fences provides leaner markup than Drupal 7 core! This kind of tool is needed in order to create semantic HTML5 output from Drupal. Similar projects include Semantic fields, Field Wrappers and a tool inside the Display Suite extras. Markup Comparison Compare Drupal 7’s default markup for a field: <div class="field field-name-field-test field-type-text field-label-above"> <div class="field-label">Foobar field: </div> <div class="field-items"> <div class="field-item even">Leaner markup means better front-end performance.

An Introduction to Drupal’s Display Suite(DS) « Drupal-lovers Posted by drupallovers on March 30, 2012 One of the rites of passage for beginner Drupal users is to learn Panels. It’s a useful tool for laying out pages and redesigning content pages without any code knowledge. However, not everyone is a fan. Panels is sometimes criticized for being hard to use and for having performance issues. In this tutorial we’re going to introduce you to a powerful alternative: Display Suite. Why Display Suite? We’re going to use Movies as our example. So far, so good. The goal of Display Suite is to allow us to move from the layout above to the layout below. Getting Started with Display Suite To start working with Display Suite, you just need two modules: Download and install both modules. Go to Structure > Display suite so to see the options available. You’ll now see a list of all the things that you can redesign with Display Suite. Get started by clicking on the content type you want to redesign. You’ll now see all of your fields. The end result can be seen below.

References This project provides D7 versions of the 'node_reference' and 'user_reference' field types, that were part of the CCK package in D6, at functional parity with the D6 counterparts. See for details. Note for users upgrading from References 7.x-2.0-beta3 There were a couple changes in the way 'References' views are handled ("referenceable nodes/users defined by a view"), which might require double-checking those existing on your site: The 'label' (node title or user name) is no longer automatically added if not included in the view. Note for users upgrading from CCK D6 The References project integrates with the content_migrate module present in CCK 7.x-2.x-dev to allow the migration of field definitions and field values from D6 nodereference and userreference fields.

Page manager existing pages | drupal.org - (Private Browsing) Page manager existing pages allows you to override/configure Drupal menu paths so you can create variants with Page manager, which is bundled in the CTools project. Technically, this project defines one abstract task and one content type plugin, so menu items can be overridden and the original page callback can be called through the content type plugin. This project comes with one default existing page, which is 'node', the default Drupal frontpage. Tested overridden paths Drupal frontpage at 'node'.Media file paths as 'media/%'.Apache Solr search pages at any path you defined.FAQ at 'faq-page', 'faq-page/%', 'faq-page/list' and 'faq-page/%/list'. In theory, any menu callback can now be overridden. Installation Install the module as usual, more info can be found on You should also install Panels, which is not a dependency for this module but is the recommended module to start overriding page layouts.
