The workflow module allows the creation and assignment of arbitrary workflows to Drupal node types. Workflows are made up of workflow states. For example, a workflow with the states Draft, Review, and Published could be assigned to the Story node type.

Transitions between workflow states can have actions assigned to them. In our example, we could assign an action so that when the story moves from the Draft state to the Review state an email is sent out.

In the Drupal community there's a paradigm that every time you hack core you kill a kitten. And who would want to kill a kittens? The point is that any time you hack core (modify the Drupal core files) it becomes a nightmare to forward-migrate your changes as Drupal core is updated. The Drupal team does routinely update Drupal (about every 2 months) and it's best to keep your Drupal installation up-to-date especially as many of the fixes are for security bugs.

It's useful to view the items loaded just by the specific feed. For example it's common in blog or podcast directories to list teasers for items on the "Source" page. The 'Feed' content type that comes with FeedAPI doesn't support listing the items on the same page, however. There is a link, in the links for the Feed content type, to "feed-item/#" that is intended to link to the items loaded by the feed, but this seems to give an error page.

In the 4.6 days most extension of Drupal meant writing modules whereas you youngsters today don't know how easy you have it with Views and CCK ... What drew me to Drupal was the tagline "Community Plumbing" as I was looking for a platform with which to build online communities or what's now known as social networking. My vision is the use of online community to create positive social change.

The Feed content type has all the description for each blog (podcast) in the directory. Add CCK fields that contain whatever description you want for each directory listing.

These are some fields I found useful to add:-
