Drupal comes with a toolbar which is useful when administering a Drupal site. If you log in and have the correct permissions, you’ll see a toolbar across the top of the page that allows you to access back-end configuration pages.
Creating a block using views is pretty straightforward. You could create a block to display a list of published articles or ones that have been promoted to the front page. Then you can add that block into any theme region.
When someone shares a Facebook post with a link to your website, Facebook lets you control how your website content appears to others by parsing your Open Graph (OG) markup.
In Drupal, files can be uploaded to the site for users to view or download. This can be easily achieved by creating a file or image field on content types.
The “Long text and summary” field has a formatter called “Summary or trimmed”. This formatter allows you to trim text to a specified set length which is important if you’re displaying a list of articles.
The roles and permissions system in Drupal is powerful, but it can be tricky to configure correctly. Some permissions give a role too much privileged access where others aren’t granular enough.
In the show notes below, I outline what we implement in part 3 of the Drupal live site build. We’ll create a new content type called Portfolio which will have three fields, Body, Featured (media field) and a Portfolio category field.
