Site building with Drupal - Days 2 & 3: Custom content, fields & lists
This two-day workshop will explore modules and configurations you can combine to build more customized systems using Drupal. You’ll create many examples of more advanced configurations and content displays using the Content Construction Kit (CCK) and Views modules.

What you will learn:
* Creating custom content types
* Building RSS feeds
* Allowing viewers to filter results
* Building interactive tables
* Displaying content in a grid
