Lessons learned from the OSTraining Module 3

  • Give content contributors/editors the ability to optionally upload media (videos or PDF). This is now common practice.
  • Installed the schedular extension, and worked with cron jobs (scheduled publishing and unpublishing of content).
  • Installed, used, and explored the configuration option for the linkit and extlink extensions.
  • Pathauto patterns, which enables automated Drupal node naming. I used it create naming conventions for my site's pages, users, and taxonomy.
  • Installed Devel Drupal Extension which is great for testing your site. Devel generates parts of a web site, is configurable, and uses Lorem Ipsum to fill text content.
