13. General Concepts

14. Field
 The smallest unit of information
 Field module allows custom data fields to be
defined for entity types (entities include content
items, comments, user accounts, and taxonomy
terms)
 Examples of fields include a number, date or
some text.

15. Node
 A piece of content on your web site.
 Node module manages the creation, editing,
deletion, settings, and display of the main site
content.
 A node consists of several fields. For example :
pages in books, discussion topics in forums,
entries in blogs, news article stories

16. Module
 Software (code) that extends Drupal features
and/or functionality.
 Module can be integrated with Drupal core or
other modules using Drupal API.
 Module : Core and Contributed

18. Region, Block, Menu
 Drupal site are laid out in regions, which can
include the header, footer, sidebars, and main
content section.
 Block  Discrete chunks of information
 Menu  a hierarchical collection of links

19. Taxonomy
 Classifying the content of website.
 You can define your own vocabularies (groups
of categories), and add terms (categories) to
each vocabulary.

20. Taxonomy Example
Vocabulary = Music
term = classical
 sub-term = concertos
 sub-term = sonatas
 sub-term = symphonies
term = jazz
 sub-term = swing
 sub-term = fusion

21. User, Role, Permission
 Drupal provides the most flexible authorization
system.
 Users on your site can be assigned permissions
via roles.
 Then assign permissions to the role.

22. Path
 Path module allows you to specify an alias, or
custom URL.
 Some examples of aliases :
member/jane-smith user/123
about-us/team node/456
