Live Search aims to provide Drupal's search module a live search functionality through Ajax and to degrade gracefully to a normal search box when the user has JavaScript turned off. It has the following features:

  • Choice between theme-provided or module-provided search box. Live Search builds upon an existing search box. Most themes provide their own search box, and the search module itself also provides a search block. You can choose which search box to enable live search functionality on.
  • Compact search box. This enables the search box to behave in a more Apple style, such as the lack of the "Search" button, with the "Search" phrase embedded in the text field itself.
  • Ajax request firing delay. To save bandwith and ease server loads, an Ajax search request is fired, by default, after the user stops typing the keyword for 1250 milliseconds.
  • Snippet and node info hiding. To save screen real estate, you can opt to hide the snippets (excerpts), the node info (showing various information such as node type, author, and date), or both.

Live Search fully utilizes Drupal's built-in jQuery JavaScript library.

The Front Page module allows for customised home pages dependant on role. The pages can be of the following types:

  • Alias (only 2.x branch) - Allows for another Drupal path to be shown as the home page without redirecting the user.
  • Redirect - Allows you to redirect users to a local or remote URL.
  • Themed - Allows you to enter some static text that will be placed into the content area of a standard Drupal page.
  • Full - Allows for static content to be displayed to the screen as is. This method does not pass through Drupal's theming system.

The Media module provides an extensible framework for managing files and multimedia assets, regardless of whether they are hosted on your own site or a 3rd party site - it is commonly referred to as a 'file browser to the internet'.

Media is a drop-in replacement for the Drupal core upload field with a unified User Interface where editors and administrators can upload, manage, and reuse files and multimedia assets. Any files uploaded before Media was enabled will automatically take advantage of the many of the features it comes with.

Browscap provides an improved version of PHP's get_browser() function.

The get_browser() function can be used to tell what a visitor's browser is capable of. Unfortunately, the version provided by PHP has a number of limitations, namely:

  • It can be difficult or impossible to configure for shared hosting environments.
  • The data used to identify browsers and determine their capabilities requires consistent maintenance to keep up-to-date.

Browscap automates maintenance by storing browser data in a database and automatically retrieving the latest data on a configurable schedule.
