UC Node Access

UC Node Access lets you attach Node access features to products in your Ubercart store. These features allow customers who purchase the product to receive view access to nodes on your site either indefinitely or for a limited time based on the feature's settings. UC Node Access does not handle access grants itself but rather depends on other modules to define handlers that integrate UC Node Access with the various node access modules developed for Drupal.
Currently integrated node access modules include:

  • ACL + Content Access - adds the customer's user account to the ACL defined by Content Access and adds expiration information beside the names in the Grant view access fieldset of the Access control tab for nodes governed by Content Access.

cck 6.x-2.0-beta

D6 Beta release.
CCK 6.2.x
=========
Content Generate (new feature)
- #257874 and #187599 provide a way to auto-generate field content for the devel module.
- #261633 E_All fix for content_generate.
Usability
- #227439, #227437, #227945 Rework field and widget type handling to simplify the intial screen when choosing a field and widget type by making it a two-step process where you see only the widgets that apply to the field. Move the setting of the field label to the same place where you set the field name. Change the field edit screen to keep it from showing all the different widgets again and instead just display the current widget. Then add a button to change the widget which will take you to another screen to make the change since the rest of the page will need to change when the widget changes. Keep the changes to the widget label in that separate process, too, since that affects the menu tabs that need to be changed before redirecting back to the main page.
Update processing
- #256141 Add old updates back to fieldgroup.install for situations where the module was briefly enabled and then disabled and never used so the update process doesn't throw an error for the missing updates.
- Fix potential E_All error in userreference after update.
- Fix E_All error that can come up after update if text module is using format column.

Markdown filter

Provides Markdown filter integration for Drupal input formats. The Markdown syntax is designed to co-exist with HTML, so you can set up input formats with both HTML and Markdown support. It is also meant to be as human-readable as possible when left as "source".
This module is a continuation of the Markdown with Smartypants module, and only includes Markdown support to simplify configuration. It is now suggested that you use Typogrify module if you are interested in Smartypants support. Also note, that if you use the GeSHI filter for code syntax highlighting, arrange this filter after that one.

SimpleViews

A streamlined interface for building Views. Administrators make a few simple choices (What kind of content should be listed? Do I want to sort by date, or by title? etc.) and a view is generated on-the-fly. Because the Views API is used, the resulting views can be modified using the full Views UI module.
In addition, every content type gets a simple checkbox on its configuration screen: "Make a listing page for this content." When it's checked, the module... makes a custom listing page, complete with RSS feed, filtered to just that content type.

FriendFeed

Provides integration with FriendFeed.
Features

  • Display a block containing a user's latest posts
  • Make announcements on FriendFeed when new content is created
  • Provides the FriendFeed API

Todo

  • Search integration
