Content Management System Using Drupal

The main attraction of the Drupal Content Management System is its versatility. You can perform the most elementary task of a two page site to a social network with voluminous traffic. It is an open source content management system. Along with this great flexibility, you get an advanced set up and configuration. The site will take a bit longer to be ready, but the wait is worth in the long run. Drupal is written in PHP language and requires a MySQL database. You are able to build various types of web pages and blogs and any type of online communications.

Important features:

Collaborative content creation: It has features to create a book for collaborative content creation. A book has many numbered pages in serial order. Similar is the case with the computer book. It has sections, chapters, subsections, bibliography and so forth. Such books can be used as a manual or a resource guide to give answers to questions and queries. The advantage for the users is that it can write content, reviews, edit and add to the pages. You can work alone or as a part of the group.

This advanced system has links to next or previous pages. You are able to set up a menu. Move around in the book through a navigation block. See the menu first and browse the pages as per your requirements. Through the menu page, you are able to add links to your other books. At the bottom of the page you find the print links to obtain the result of printer friendly display of the pages.

Modules:

Build, enhance and extend the core functionality of Drupal development through modules. They are plug-in devices. Modules are contributed by the website community. You have varied modules, such as e-commerce, evaluation or rating, commerce, advertising, file management, filters or editors and so forth.

Online Help:

Drupal renders online help to the Drupal development community. Some of them are slides, videos, tutorials and how-to, self-help articles. The guide pages include essential topics like updating modules, themes and take care of other projects.

Open Source:

Drupal is open source in the real sense of the term. As per the terms of the GNU (General Pubic License) majority of the software are by nature restrictive, and the user is not given the freedom to modify it. You can not share it either. Under this type of license, you have total freedom even to change the software. You can distribute the copies free of charge or even make a commercial sale of the same. You can change the software and use it in parts along with any software program. What more customization environment a user may require? The individual preferences are given due regard as you can personalize both its content and presentation.

Users and access and management settings:

The exercise of real freedom is provided in the system. No elaborate permission formats for each user are necessary. The module permits the users to register, log in or log out. The created content can be associated with it. Users use own names and set up 'my account page.' Cookies without personal information are provided and they are the tools to retrieve information stored in one's server. Many other functions like Creating Polls, Templating, Threaded comments and discussions and Blogger API support are provided in Drupal.
