1. Top 11 Most Popular Drupal
8 Ready Modules Of 2017
Modules are essential components of Drupal
that add extended functionality to the website
and turn a simple website into a very powerful
beast! I will highlight several Drupal 8 ready
modules for different use cases.

2. ADMIN TOOLBAR
1.

4. This module replaces the original admin menu
with a responsive version that greatly improves
the original menu’s functionality by adding
drop-down menus. This speeds up the access
to all administration pages.

5. FIELD GROUP
2.

7. The field group module allows easier
organization of the content by grouping the
fields together in either vertical or horizontal
tabs, divs, accordions etc. This module greatly
enhances the user experience for content
editors.

8. 3.
LINKIT

10. This is an extremely useful module
that allows auto-complete feature for
all internal and external links. Now, the
content producers do not have to
remember the exact URL.

11. 4.
PATHAUTO

13. This module automatically generates relevant
and easy to remember URL according to your
web page. These URLs ensure that the pages
on the website rank better in search engines
and that the pages perform well in SERP.

14. 5.
BIGPIPE

15. 3.
LINKIT

16. This module implements BigPipe caching,
originally introduced by Facebook, in order to
speed up the website. The module first renders
the cached components of the page and then
loads up the dynamic components. This way,
the page load speed increases dramatically.

17. 6.
FEATURES

18. 3.
LINKIT

and use your website’s
configurations and components to
other websites without any major
issues.

BLOG

21. 3.
LINKIT

22. The Blog module used to be a core module in
Drupal 7, but has been removed from the core
of Drupal 8 to a contributed module. This
module, as the name suggests, allows the
website administrators to build and maintain a
blog.

23. 8.
SHARETHIS

24. 3.
LINKIT

25. This module allows you to add
social sharing buttons that let the
visitors on the blog quickly share
the content across their social
media profiles.

26. 9.
MAILSYSTEM

27. 3.
LINKIT

28. This module allows you to set the
templates and themes for the
outgoing mail. You could also send
regular newsletters to your
subscribers through the module.

29. 10.
IMAGE EFFECTS

LINKIT

31. As the name implies, this module
allows you to add additional effects
to images and the image UI such as
the example above.

32. 11.
COLORBOX

33. 3.
LINKIT

34. This module allows images on your
website to be displayed in a convenient
overlay over the current page. This
allows for a distraction-free usage of
images within the text.
