Intro to CCK
Session Description
Liked your nodes but thought there was something missing? Enter CCK. Ever wanted an additional textfield in your nodes? A number of products, a picture of the building, a link to the origional author? Well CCK answers that.
Schedule –
- Node basics – what’s a node, why nodes are awesome, node flaws
- CCK to the rescue!
- Adding a field – fields and widgets
- Go over terminology
- Explore different field modules
- Date
- Imagefield
- Link
- Filefield
- Embedded media field
- Possible, computed field
- If you want another field type mentioned, post a forum topic to this group and I might add it. Could even be something like “I want a solution for x, y, z. Any fields that can do this?”
Prerequisites: Basic Drupal knowledge.

Presenter Info
You can see my main Bio at http://drupal.org/user/47566.
I've contributed several modules. I maintain the Views Bonus Pack, along with the Comment CCK module and the Util module.
I have experience in jQuery, CSS, HTML, PHP (mostly), and Drupal, in core, profile, theming (although I have a horrible and skewed sense of design. I can critique it but I can't design my own stuff) and module development.

CCK Talk - I'd love to see Embedded Fields!
Fri, 11/02/2007 - 15:57 — smokinggoatYou requested input on the discussion of CCK fields. I’d like to see yuo cover (if there’s time) embedded media fields! I’m interested in the audio field in particular, since that seems to be the only audio module that does not require an audio local audio upload (you can point to an offsite file, like the video module allows).
And if you can’t get to it, no sweat. :-)
Thanks,
G
