Shows how to change the formatting and label display for fields, and how to control whether a field appears in the teaser, full mode, search results and other display mode contexts.

Goes through the process of adding a role and then creating a user reference field, which autocompletes to users within that specified role.

Goes through the process of creating a hierarchical set of taxonomy terms, and then adding an autocomplete taxonomy term reference field to a content type.

Goes through the process of adding three new fields to the job posting content type including an integer text field for the salary, a select list of job type, and a checkbox as to whether or not telecommuting is allowed.

Goes through the process of creating a new content type of a job posting, and shows how to customize the Title and Body labels for this new content type.

Provides an overview of the example job posting site that will be built over the remaining chapters of this video series. Joe gives a tour of the job posting content type as well as the job application content type.

Gives a high-level overview of the field configuration page and defines the field types, widget and display formatters. Also adds a simple text field as an example of extending an existing content type.

Goes through the default content types of the Article and Page that are provided in Drupal 7, and shows the similarities and differences between the two. Also goes through some of the configuration options, which define the default settings whenever a new node is created.

In this video series, Joe Shindelar, Karen Stevenson and Michelle Lauer build out a job posting board using the built-in Fields in Drupal 7 along with some other contributed modules. They cover the basics that Site Builders need to know about how to add fields, configure how they're displayed, and using all of the different types of fields including file files, image files, term references, node references, and user references. Each chapter of this video builds upon the last as the team builds and configures two content types for posting available jobs and job applications.

In this video, Joe shows the finished project we're going to make together through this series. Later in the series we'll be going through the steps necessary in order to create the job posting and job application content types he demonstrates here.

This video will pair well with Intro to Views in Drupal 7, which will continue this job board project through to completion.

Learn the essential terminology of Drupal in this overview of content nodes, blocks, theming, menu system and modules. In Understanding Drupal, the first in The Lullabot Learning Series, the Lullabot team provides an overview of Drupal as a content management system, as a PHP web application framework, and as a developer community. Its documentary-style exploration covers all the terminology and fundamental concepts for both site administrators and developers. If you've ever been confused by Drupal or are still trying to wrap your head around the community and platform, then this video is a roadmap to accelerate your journey up the Drupal learning curve. Topics include:

• How content is entered and managed
• How users and user permissions are handled
• What blocks are and what they can do
• The concepts and capabilities of Drupal's powerful module system
• How Drupal handles navigation and its menu system
• How themes alter the site layout, design, and presentation
• Site configuration and administrative messages and settings

This video uses Drupal 6 for examples, however it is more focused on general Drupal concepts rather than version-specific how-tos.
