Administration

The Deploy module is designed to allow users to easily stage and preview content for a Drupal site. Deploy automatically manages dependencies between entities (like node references). It is designed to have a rich API which can be easily extended to be used in a variety of content staging situations.

Drupal 6 version

This packages two modules together:

Update status aggregator client

Gathers data about the modules and themes installed on a Drupal site and sends them to a corresponding server. As you are (hopefully) monitoring the status of the site from the server, optionally you can disable the 'There are security updates pending for your site' shown on the admin pages also.

This module provides awesome installation. It's really awesome. It uses hook_form_alter to hijack the admin/build/modules page and awesomify it.

It does not currently work, it is just a proof of concept at the moment.

[UPDATE -by Senpai] There's an feature request in the issue queue that this module addresses. See http://drupal.org/node/230059 Idea #3 for details about the reasoning for Awesome Install.

This module is getting obsolete.

At least for Drupal 7 the only command useful is replaced by http://drupal.org/project/graphapi

This is a extension to Drupal Shell aka drush

NOTE: This module is deprecated in favor of Auto Assign Role, which can be configured to provide the same functionality (and much more)

• Auto Assign Role Module

Allows the user to add a fifth component on the user registration URL containing a comma-separated list of roles to be automatically assigned to the newly-created user.

For example:

Editor allows rich text fields to be edited using WYSIWYG client-side editors.

Editor is a backport of the Drupal 8 pluggable text/WYSIWYG editors and CKEditor module.

Requirements

Editor has one dependency.

• Filter module included with Drupal core.

The included Editor CKEditor module has one additional dependency.

Redirect to a specified page after an administrator creates a user, based on the newly-created-user's roles.

This module depends on a new additional hook_user $op, after_insert, which must be manually added to Drupal core. Apply the following patch:

Multisite Login allows a user to login to all sites in a multisite configuration, even though the multisites do not share domain names.

For example:
  politicker.com
  politickernj.com
  politickerny.com
  etc.

NOTE: if you are using several sites on the same domain (ex. politicker.com, nj.politicker.com, ny.politicker.com, etc.), then you do not need this module. The multisite functionality in Drupal core has the ability to share logins for sites like these without additional modules.

This module was designed to be an alternative to the singlesignon module but using a technique that does not block search engines from accessing your websites.

Abandoned project, no longer to develop new feature on this one. Anyone interested for batch / bulk things on node, should look View Bulk Operations.

Quick Edit adds batch ("mass updates") and AJAX functionality to the standard interface for Drupal content management, for the roles that has "administer nodes" permissions.

From the Quick Edit content management screen, you filter by content type, date and/or categories as usual - then perform batch edits on the selected nodes.
