Migrating D6 (CCK) to D7 Fields. Last updated December 26, 2013. Created on May 1, 2011.Edited by flaviovs, LWVMD, colan, Edgar Saumell. Log in to edit this page. Data must be migrated to upgrade Content Construction Kit (CCK) in Drupal 6 to Drupal 7 core fields. Much but not all of CCK functionality is now part of Drupal 7 core. Several features require the installation of new, dedicated 7.x modules.
Node Reference and User Reference are replaced by either the References module or the Entity Reference module. To use Entity Reference (as it's better maintained and more sustainable), it's necessary to migrate to References first, and then use the Reference to Entity Reference Field Migration module.Content permissions require the Field Permissions module ( Groups require the Field Group ( module. The following instructions describe the steps necessary to migrate CCK for a site that was upgraded from Drupal 6 to Drupal 7.
Taxonomy. Theming Guide. Last updated November 4, 2015. Created on August 2, 2012.Edited by reendeer, chriscerk, ashish_nirmohi, mh9. Log in to edit this page. This community documentation guide is about changing the look and feel of a Drupal site. The guide covers Drupal 6 & 7 and Drupal 8. Changing Site Appearance In the administrative settings you can modify the appearance of the theme in 3 ways. Simply find a prefabricated provided by Drupal or get one on a third party website and modify the theme settings Copy an existing theme and then change or extend the codeBuild a complete theme from scratch (For doing this you need to copy files from core theme and place it under sites/all/themes and do the necessary changes on .info, template, tpl and css files.) What else can you do?
You can do more with a theme than change the appearance of an entire site. Some other things that you can also do with a theme are: Other Places to Explore Looking for support? Blocks. Menu block. So… have you ever used the Main and Secondary menu links feature on your theme and wondered “how the hell do I display any menu items deeper than that?” Well, that’s what this module does. It provides configurable blocks of menu trees starting with any level of any menu. And more! So if you’re only using your theme’s Main menu links feature, you can add and configure a “Main menu (levels 2+)” block. Pretty simple, eh? #D7AX/#DAX - I pledge to make this module as accessible as it can be. Related modules DHTML menu: Makes any of Drupal's standard menu trees have dynamically expanding menu items.
Nice menus: Provides blocks of fly-out expandable menu trees. Menu Settings per Content Type. Custom breadcrumbs. Custom Breadcrumbs 2 (6.x-2.x and 7.x-2.x) Many new features have been added including support for Views, Panels, Taxonomy vocabularies and terms, paths, and a simple API that allows contributed modules to enable custom breadcrumbs for module pages and theme templates. These are implemented using optional, independent submodules that depend on the main Custom Breadcrumbs module. In addition to breadcrumb visibility, this version provides an option permitting PHP code snippets to be used in forming the breadcrumb titles and paths. Multiple languages are also supported. Any changes must go in the 7.x version first. Custom Breadcrumbs 1 (6.x-1.x and 7.x-1.x) Allows administrators to set up parametrized breadcrumb trails for any node type. There are no maintainers doing any work on these branches, so please switch to version 2!
Similar Modules There is also the Path Breadcrumbs (PB) module. Dynamic display block. Devel. A suite of modules containing fun for module developers and themers ... Devel Helper functions for Drupal developers and inquisitive admins. This module can print a summary of all database queries for each page request at the bottom of each page. The summary includes how many times each query was executed on a page (shouldn't run same query multiple times), and how long each query took (short is good - use cache for complex queries).Also a dprint_r($array) function is provided, which pretty prints arrays. Useful during development.
Similarly, a ddebug_backtrace() is offerred.much more. See this helpful demo page. Generate content Accelerate development of your site or module by quickly generating nodes, comments, terms, users, and more. Devel Node Access (DNA) View the node access entries for the node(s) that are shown on a page. Content types and fields. In Drupal, a Content Type is a pre-defined collection of data types (Fields) which relate to each other by an informational context. In this sense, "context" means "parts that should be considered as a correlated whole. " Content Types are how site editors can input original content on a Drupal site, and are the building blocks for structured authoring and content. Content types often work in conjunction with Views, which is one way you can serve up content to your end users; you can control the content types that appear and the order in which they appear. Developers can also customize the authoring experience in the same way.
One way to think of content types is to visualize the contacts on your mobile phone. If you were to duplicate this on a Drupal site you would create a Content Type. The Field UI module provides an administrative user interface (UI) for attaching and managing fields. Managing fields with the Field UI Uses Planning fields Reusing fields Remove field Versions Drupal 7. About content types. In Drupal, a Content Type is a pre-defined collection of data types (Fields) which relate to each other by an informational context. In this sense, "context" means "parts that should be considered as a correlated whole. " Content Types are how site editors can input original content on a Drupal site; while Views, for example, is one way you can serve up content to your end users. A developer (or an administrator, with the help of CCK) can add new Content Types to collect specific information for display.
Also, existing Content Types can be "extended" by adding additional Fields. Drupal 6 "ships" with two initial Content Types (Page and Story). All posts that exist on the site are instances of a content type: Each time you create a post (page, story etc.), a content type is being used to hold and form the items you enter. Drupal core content types: Drupal comes with two pre-configured default content types with different default configured behaviors.

The Family Tree module is for recording, displaying and analyzing genealogical data. It allows for the creation of things (nodes), such as Individual peopleFamily "groups" (marriages, unions, parents, children, etc.)Customized locations (e.g. place of union, etc.), events (e.g. divorce, etc.), artifact data records and linkingA lot more Dependencies: 6.x-1.x is the current new feature branch of Family Tree. While the 4.7 and 5.x-1.x branches are stable release branches at this point, only 5.x-3.x included node creation AND node relationships. The entire database and module structure was scrapped after 5.x-1.4 for a complete redesign. Here is a more in-depth feature list: Proposed future feature additions in no particular order: Export to GED file.Make module fields available to Views and CCK.Date and Calendar integration.Family record privacy.Tighter relationship integration with nodes and users.
Bible. Files and Multimedia. Media. The Media module provides an extensible framework for managing files and multimedia assets, regardless of whether they are hosted on your own site or a 3rd party site - it is commonly referred to as a 'file browser to the internet'. Media is a drop-in replacement for the Drupal core upload field with a unified User Interface where editors and administrators can upload, manage, and reuse files and multimedia assets. Any files uploaded before Media was enabled will automatically take advantage of the many of the features it comes with. Media's aim is to solve Drupal's long standing media handling problem. Drupal 7 installation Quick install: Follow this recipe, or see online installation documentation. Drupal 8 Media for Drupal 8 is undergoing a re-architecture to individual components.

The Flickr Sync module downloads new photos from Flickr and creates Drupal nodes from them. The sync includes the title, description, tags (as Drupal taxonomy terms), and of course the image as a CCK imagefield upload. This module does NOT provide any image gallery view or other theming. This modules requires Flickr API module. Note: #1869164: Upgrade Flickrsync to support latest version of flickrapi module Differences between flickrsync and flickrrippr The major difference is that flickrsync uses the CCK Imagefield, where Flickr Rippr doesn't.
This allows for greater flexibility with other modules. Versions Drupal 5 Drupal 5 version of this module will no longer be supported.

Back in February, I wrote a quick tutorial on how you can leverage Views, CCK and the Flickr module to create a photo gallery in Drupal. It is by far the most popular post on this humble site of mine (garnering about 36% of my traffic). Long story short, the Flickr module was updated (for the better) and the tutorial was outdated. The technique I described in the original tutorial was no longer correct. So, people following it (trusing that I knew what I was talking about) couldn’t replicate the results.
This post is long overdue but I hope it helps clear things up on how to get the same results with the new Flickr module. I recently whipped up a simple site for a cross country team I help coach that demos this functionality nicely. Here is an example gallery page – this is what we’ll be creating. For the most part, the technique is the same, but I’ll run through all of the steps quickly below: Your nodes should display the photos in your Flickr sets immediately. Gallery formatter. Facebook Connect. Charts. Transform Data into Information. Charts are a very good way to visualize a lot of data in a way that can be quickly digested. Features Built-in plugins: out of the box, you may use either Google Charts (the new ones) or Highcharts.Wide chart type support: Pie, Line, Bar, Column, and Area charts.API: A Drupal-friendly syntax for creating charts easily, regardless of the underlying library.Views integration: Display the Views results as charts.Examples: The module includes dozens of examples for you to reference when building your own charts or chart library integration.
Installation Please refer to the README.txt file for installation instructions. Recommended Modules Views: Charts module provides an API that can be used as a stand-alone API, but the integration with Views module will allow you to build charts with no coding.Views Date Format SQL: Charting data over a date range in Views? Additional Implementations Charts RGraph Support. Drupal Charting. I needed to find a way to create nice charts from Views data so that end users could adapt them to selected date ranges or categories, but I found that this is not as easy as it ought to be. It took quite a bit of time just to figure out what the options were, let alone decide which were the most promising solutions for my situation. Since this turned into such a time-consuming project, I've documented the steps I took and what I found to make things easier for anyone else looking for solutions like this.
I investigated several Drupal 6x modules to see which ones might be ready for prime time. Many of the modules have alpha releases or less and/or have dependencies on other modules that are alpha or beta (i.e. Views Charts (alpha) depends on SWF Object API (beta), several of the modules depend on the Charts module (alpha)). Several are brand new modules with no activity beyond the initial check in. The names and dependencies are especially confusing. Charts. Data Visualization Demo. Google chart API. The Google Chart Tools: Image Charts API was deprecated by Google on April 20, 2012 and can be shutdown at any time. We do not recommend using this module for any new projects. Various options are being considered regarding future versions of the chart module, refer to #2376179: Chart 7.x-3.x Release for more details.
The Charts module supports the more recent Google Interactive charts, and is a valid alternative to consider. Refer to the Comparison of Charting modules for other possible alternatives to consider. Why Use Google Charts? There are many reasons to choose Google Chart API over other methods such as Flash or Flex charts. Lightweight, reliable, no need for server side libraries or additional modules.Simple to extend and implement within the Drupal framework.Memory friendly. Note: using the Google Chart API is "free of charge", which should not be confused with "free software".
