Installation profiles

Where we suggest what Drupal modules you might like for a certain type of library-related Drupal installation:

  • Library website
  • Digital library
  • OPAC layer
  • Library community site or intranet

Another new module that is related to installation profiles: http://drupal.org/project/distro . Definitely worth tracking.

Finally got 'recipes' working properly

Caleb posted this before I provided proper tools for creating 'recipes', so after a brief email discussion with him today I've:

  1. Created a new content type called 'recipe'.
  2. Tightened up permissions so all authenticated users can edit recipes but not other content types (read my recipe on allowing users to override authoring and publishing options to see how I fixed my original configuration!).
  3. Used hook_nodeapi() in a custom site module to add a little notice to all recipes inviting people to contribute.
  4. Installed the Table of Contents module, which allow you to insert a special tag in your recipe. See the help under the Filtered and Full HTML input formats for details.

If anyone else has any ideas or feedback, post 'em here.
