Once everything is up and running, and after looking over some of the more common installation problems, the chapter presents a brief tour of Drupal in order to give you an idea of what to expect in the coming chapters.
Chapter 2, Basic Functionality sees us adding important functionality to the newly created site. The focus of this chapter is on modules and blocks and how to add and enable them, and how to obtain modules that are not a part of the core distribution. Given that menus are closely associated with a site's functionality, these are also covered here.
Chapter 3, Configuration and Reports looks at the most general settings that all Drupal administrators need to contend with. Everything from specifying your site's name and dealing with filesystem settings to proper utilization of logs and reports gets treated here.
Chapter 4, Users and Access Control concerns itself with the best ways to implement a sound access control policy. Drupal has a sophisticated role-based access control system, which is fundamentally important for handling users properly. This chapter will give you the information you need to implement whatever access controls your site requires.
Chapter 5, Basic Content gets to the heart of the matter by beginning the book's coverage on content. Working with content, what content types are available, administering content, and even a discourse on some of the more common content-related modules serve as a basis for moving to more advanced content-related matters that follow in the next chapter.
Chapter 6, Advanced Content gives you the edge when it comes to creating engaging, dynamic content. In particular, Drupal 7's new field paradigm is discussed along with content types, taxonomy, and formatting.
There is one thing you need to do though. In order to protect the amount of times the book is downloaded, we have set a download limit on it. To prevent this being abused by bots and such, you need to verify you are a human by filling in a short survey before you download it. But don’t worry, it’s free and all you have to do is type some stuff and you’ll have the website making tutorial in your hands in just a couple of minutes!
There is one thing though, with the website I use they try and trick you into buying something before you download. If the survey asks you to enter your card details or buy something then simply exit out of that survey and try a new one. There are plenty of free ones, you just have to be smart about it. So what are you waiting for? Learn how to Make your Website better today and just click the Download button…
