Drupal/C2/Creating-Basic-Content/English-timed

Time	Narration
00:01	Welcome to the Spoken tutorial on Creating Basic Content.
00:06	In this tutorial, we will learn about Content types Creating an article and Creating a basic page
00:15	To record this tutorial, I am using Ubuntu Linux Operating System Drupal 8 and Firefox Web browser
00:25	You can use any web browser as per your choice.
00:29	First let us learn about Content type.In Drupal, Content type is the core of the content management system.
00:39	It is like the backbone of a site.
00:42	It is one of the things that sets Drupal apart from the other CMS.
00:48	Most of the CMS just have a title and a body, and that as it turns out, is completely inadequate.
00:57	In Drupal every content item is called a node. Each node belongs to a single Content type.
01:06	Next let us understand the importance of Content type.* Content type defines various default settings for nodes of that type, such as
01:17	whether the node is published automatically whether the comments are permitted and
01:23	how content gets added to our site Every Content type has fields
01:30	We have fields for informations that we need, depending on what kind of content is going in.
01:38	Let me illustrate it this way. This is IMDb.Com which could be a Drupal site.This is about the movie Red.
01:49	On the screen, you will see - a poster, a title, a release date,
01:55	* a parental rating, a runtime, a movie genre,
01:59	* a body or a description for the movie.
02:04	We will have a set of People fields, as well as some other links and buttons and things.
02:09	In other CMSes we could use something like Dreamweaver to create this layout in CSS.
02:16	What happens if we want a landing page for all the movies in 2010 that stars Bruce Willis with the parental rating of PG 13.
02:28	If you are using another CMS, it is difficult to do this.But in Drupal, it is done very easily.
02:37	This is the real advantage of Content types. Now, let us go and explore some built-in Content types.
02:46	Later, we will also learn about creating new Content types. Open our Drupal site which we created earlier.
02:54	First, we will learn about Article Content type.Click on Content and then on Add content.
03:04	Remember we have already created one article. We will now create another article with all the elements.
03:13	Click on Article.In an article, there’s only one mandatory field, i.e. the Title.
03:21	If we don’t put text in the body, we will have nothing.An Article Content type comes with the Summary.
03:28	If we don't put anything in the Summary, Drupal will take the first few characters to create it. This is called the Teaser mode.
03:38	Let’s proceed. We will type a few lines of text here.
03:43	You can type any text that you want.
03:45	This is my text.
03:50	Here Text format shows what elements we are allowed to put into the HTML.
03:56	We have Basic, Restricted and Full HTML.Because we are the super user, we can see everything.
04:05	Normally, when a user logs in as an editor or publisher, there is only one Text format here. They are allowed to use only that Text format.
04:17	For more details, click on About text formats link.
04:22	For now, let's select Basic HTML.
04:26	Basic HTML allows us to look at the source code and use some basic HTML elements like
04:33	a paragraph tag, strong italic,
04:36	unordered list, ordered list and a few others.
04:41	Full HTML allows us to embed any HTML including JavaScript and iframes.
04:48	In Restricted HTML, we will just be allowed to enter something like a paragraph tag or line breaks.
04:57	The WYSIWYG editor is CKEditor. We will learn about it later.
05:03	Here we can see bold, italics, linking, unordered and ordered lists, block quote and image.
05:11	A formatting drop down to choose different H tags and then View Source.
05:18	When I change the Text format, I get more buttons. We will learn about them later.
05:25	Let's leave it at Basic HTML for now.Click on Continue button.
05:32	Let's finish our article.Once again, let's use the tags - introduction and drupal.
05:40	We will leave the Image blank for now. You have already seen how that works.
05:47	Here on the right, we get the visibility and publication settings.
05:52	Click on Create new revision checkbox to enable version control for this particular article.
05:59	If we want to add an article to a menu link, click on Provide a menu link checkbox. Drupal will add a menu item to the main navigation.
06:11	If you do that, we will get hundreds of mails. So, let’s remove the checkmark.
06:17	We can turn Comments on or off on a particular node.
06:22	Here we can give the URL alias.
06:26	If kept blank, then Drupal will create this for us.
06:30	Under AUTHORING INFORMATION, we can see who created this node and when they created it.
06:37	Under PROMOTION OPTIONS, we can set the View settings like- whether this node will be promoted to the front page and whether it will be sticky at the top of list.
06:50	These are set up when we create our Content type and the editor doesn't need to change those.
06:56	But we can make changes as per our preferences.
07:00	Finally, click Save and publish to save our node.
07:04	Immediately, the node is live on our site. We can see it here.
07:10	Click on Home page.
07:12	We have our Welcome to Drupalville and Drupalville's Second Article.
07:17	In Teaser mode, these are displayed in publication date order.
07:23	The Read more and Add new comment links are here.
07:28	To get a list of all the nodes tagged with the word Drupal, click on drupal link.
07:35	Again, the nodes are displayed in publication date order.
07:40	That's the Article Content type.
07:43	Let us click on Edit link.
07:45	We can insert anything we want here.
07:48	Drupal gives a lot of options, by default.
07:52	Let us click on Save and keep published.
07:56	We can use Content types for anything.
07:58	Let's add another item.Click on Shortcuts and Add content.
08:04	Choose' Basic page.'Basic page contains the Title and the Body.
08:10	There are no tags or images.It is not promoted to the front page, by default.
08:17	Also, there is no provision for commenting. Because it’s not promoted to the Home page, it's easy to create a new menu.
08:27	Type About Drupalville.
08:30	Type some text of your choice here.
08:33	Now, check the Provide a menu link under MENU SETTINGS.
08:38	You will see that the Title changes to a Menu Title.
08:43	We could shorten this, if we want. Check it in the main navigation and keep the Weight at 0, for now.
08:51	Weight is where the menu will appear in the list.A lower number or negative number, will make it appear higher i.e. it will flow to the top.
09:03	Leave everything else the same.Make sure menu link is checked and click Save and publish.
09:11	We get an About Drupalville link.It will take us to our Basic page Content type with a node title About Drupalville.
09:22	The node ID shows 3.If you have added other nodes earlier, then your node ID might be different from mine.
09:32	At the bottom left, we can see this is node ID 3.You won’t need that very often, however.
09:41	That is the article and the Basic page Content type with a menu link.With this we come to the end of this tutorial.
09:50	Let us summarize.In this tutorial we have learnt about Content types Creating an article and Creating a basic page
