Configuring Comments And A Contact Form

Submitted by learnbythedrop on Sat, 02/28/2009 - 14:26

Lesson Eleven of my special Getting Started With Drupal series of instructional videos.

This lesson focuses on the configuration of blog comments and setting up a site wide contact form. The preview includes instruction on how to protect both comments and the contact form using the Mollom module.

In addition to basic configuration of comments and the contact form the preview also shows how to add a menu item for the site wide contact form and a sidebar block that displays recent comments.

The premium version is a full resolution (1024x768) version that contains additional content as indicated below.

Premium Content: 
  • Configuration of the Gravatar module which adds user pictures to comments via the Gravatar service
  • Configuration of the Comment Notify module which allows site administrators and non-registered commenters to be notified of follow up comments to a post

Thanks a lot. I like your

Thanks a lot. I like your lessons very much. I discovered them not long ago. Earlier I learned everything from Drupal books (I found a lot of them at the book search engine ... ) but the process of learning was boring and sometimes I didn’t have enough will to continue it. But with the lessons the situation is very different.

Adding tables to Drupal

Does anyone know of a good table module? Particularly one that is easily editable. Perhaps even one that would automatically generate when a user uploads an Excel or CSV file.

Thanks.

Table Wizard

I recommend Table Wizard which I've successfully used before. http://drupal.org/project/tw This will create a table from an uploaded file. You may still have to go to the table to set specific data types but this does the job of creating the table and making the data available to the views module.
