Panels
An Overview of Panels The Panels module allows a site administrator to create customized layouts for multiple uses. At its core it is a drag and drop content manager that lets you visually design a layout and place content within that layout. Integration with other systems allows you to create nodes that use this, landing pages that use this, and even override system pages such as taxonomy and the node page so that you can customize the layout of your site with very fine grained permissions. Integration with CTools module Panels 3 utilizes the CTools' system of "context" so that the content you place on the page can be aware of what is being displayed. Panels uses Contexts - What are they? In a Panel, you can create contexts, which represent the objects being displayed. In addition, these contexts can be checked for information and use that not only to make content available to be displayed, but to choose which layout to display! Panels can also be used for items smaller than pages.

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.

Link Module description The link module can be count to the top 50 modules in Drupal installations and provides a standard custom content field for links. With this module links can be added easily to any content types and profiles and include advanced validating and different ways of storing internal or external links and URLs. It also supports additional link text title, site wide tokens for titles and title attributes, target attributes, css class attribution, static repeating values, input conversion, and many more. Requirements / Dependencies Drupal 6: Custom content module (CCK)Drupal 7: Fields API is provided already by core [no dependencies].Drupal 8: Link module is in core now. INFO Since some misleading user reports we need to clarify here - Link module is NOT about to add links to any menus or the navigation nor primary/secondary menu. Installation Configuration Configuration is only slightly more complicated than a text field. Example Theming and Output Useful References User Reports

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. Similar modules:

Field group Fieldgroup will, as the name implies, group fields together. All fieldable entities will have the possibility to add groups to wrap their fields together. Fieldgroup comes with default HTML wrappers like vertical tabs, horizontal tabs, accordions, fieldsets or div wrappers. The field group project is a follow-up on the field group module in CCK. The release will only exist for Drupal 7 release and higher, so since the existence of the Fields API in core.

Panels Tabs Description This module provides a configurable "tabs" Panel style that can be used by any Panels module. The module supports the following tab modes: Normal tabs (horizontal filling disabled).Horizontally filling, equal width tabs: sets the width property, forcing each tab to be equally wide. If the text doesn't fit in the tab, the overflow will be hidden.Horizontally filling, smart width tabs: calculates the length of the text in each tab and compares this to the total length of the text on all tabs. Pager links inside panels (e.g. views with pagers) will automatically be updated to ensure that the same tab is opened when the page is loaded. Drupal 7 Version Development has started on the 7.x-2.x version with new features and fixes. Panels Tabs requires Panels 7.x-3.1 +. Dependencies for Drupal 6 Version jQuery / jQuery UI / Tabs Issues The tabs module can be quite picky about which version of jQuery & jQuery UI you use. Drupal 5 Version Dependencies:

Embedded Media Field Maintainers: aaron (Aaron Winborn) and Alex UA (Alex Urevick-Ackelsberg) This extensible module will create fields for content types that can be used to display video, image, and audio files from various third party providers. When entering the content, the user will simply paste the URL or embed code from the third party, and the module will automatically determine which content provider is being used. The module is only an engine, and requires a supported module to function. Please note: As of emfield 2.x, provider files for these modules are no longer included with the main emfield module, and must be downloaded separately- please see the list of projects providing provider files below. Modules extending Embedded Media Field The following modules work in conjunction with this project, largely to expose media providers (you'll need at least one of these to make the module useful): These extend the project in other ways: FeedsMedia ActionsMedia MoverColorboxLightbox2ShadowboxThickbox

Hover Preview for ImageCache This module provides a new series of ImageCache formatters. The overall goal is to enable the ability to provide a hover state of an image when a mouse rolls over it. This is similar to functionality you would find on many shopping websites. The implementation of this module goes a bit further than just a javascript hover. The easiest way to see it in action is to click on the demonstration link. D6 original module development by Thinkleft, maintained by Go Chic or Go Home.
