- Introduction
- ================
- This module is for people who want a custom front page to their Drupal sites.
- For all bugs, feature requests or support requests please use the
- Front Page issue queue at http://drupal.org/project/issues/front
- Key Functionality
- =====================
- 1. Allows you to specify a custom front page based on role type.
- 2. Allows 4 different override types:
- 1. Themed - Allows you to add content that will display as a standard
- themed Drupal page.
- 2. Full - Allows you to add content that will be displayed on the screen
- as is. This method is the same as declaring a whole HTML page.
- 3. Redirect - Allows you to 301 redirect the user to another path.
- 4. Alias - Allows you to specify a local path which will then display as
- the home page without redirecting the user.
- 4. Allow Themed and Full display types to be passed through Drupals input filters.
- 5. Override Home Links to go to another local path. This could be to stop users
- going back to a splash screen.
- Installation
- ===============
- 1. Upload and install the Front Page module.
- 2. Go to Administer -> Config -> Front Page.
- 3. Expand any of the roles that you want to override the default front page and
- select the appropriate method of override as well as filling in the variables
- required for that method. Once the settings are correct save the form.
- 4. Go to Administer -> Config -> Front Page -> Arrange.
- 5. Arrange the roles in the order in which you want them to process. Roles at
- the top will process first and then work down the list. Once the order is
- correct save the form.
- 5. Go back to Administer -> Config -> Front Page.
- 6. Enable the 'Front Page Override' checkbox and then save the form. The front
- page module should now be working correctly.
