Issue status update for http://drupal.org/node/29794 Post a follow up: http://drupal.org/project/comments/add/29794 Project: Drupal Version: cvs Component: node system Category: feature requests Priority: normal Assigned to: chx Reported by: chx Updated by: kbahey Status: patch (code needs review) +1. This is something needed a lot and will save a lot of code duplication, and tricks like two stub event sumodules. since CCK will not make it to 4.7, this is the way to go. kbahey Previous comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Sat, 27 Aug 2005 11:34:39 +0000 : chx Attachment: http://drupal.org/files/issues/simplenode.module (9.09 KB) Instead of page, story etc let's have a module with which you can add simple body only nodes. At least moshe and I frequently copy story.module to have a new simple module. For example, event needs this. For permissions it's great to have multiple node types. So I downloaded a copy of content.module from CCK, pressed delete a lot, copied hook_form from story and then rename the stuff to simplenode.module. Then I reviewed the thing but it was really not much, so credit goes to JonBob and jvandyk. MySQL is: CREATE TABLE node_type ( type_name varchar(31) NOT NULL default '', label varchar(255) NOT NULL default '', description mediumtext NOT NULL, help mediumtext NOT NULL, PRIMARY KEY (type_name) ) TYPE=MyISAM; ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Sat, 27 Aug 2005 11:44:09 +0000 : chx Attachment: http://drupal.org/files/issues/simplenode_0.module (8.81 KB) To save a couple hundred bytes of code and also a lot in DB I removed hard caching of node types. It's surely needed for CCK, not for us.
