Building a functional, beautiful site for end users is what most Drupal development efforts focus on -- but some of the most important and often neglected users of the new site are the content creators and editors who will have to maintain it. Planning for the admin experience these users will have can mean the difference between unsatisfied, frustrated content maintainers and maintainers who are happy with their new site. For content maintainers, an uncustomized Drupal admin interface can be complicated, overwhelming, and downright scary. By making the system easier to use and more difficult to break, developers and site-builders can create better relationships with their content maintainers and ultimately their clients. There are a number of steps they can take to do this, ranging from installing and configuring modules that improve the interface, to customizing the permissions system to restrict access to areas of the site that can be unnecessarily confusing, to setting up more intuitive dashboards. Careful thought about what content maintainers need to do, and planning to help them to do it, helps them focus on their content and empowers them to take control of managing and maintaining their website with less developer assistance. In this presentation, we will cover some of the steps we take to streamline our websites for our clients. You’ll learn about: Helpful modules to improve content authoring Crafting roles and permissions for a streamlined admin experience Configuring the WYSIWYG Organizing content interfaces for ease of use Creating an intuitive administrative dashboard The importance of simple and concise training documentation

WHAT DO YOU DO WITH DRUPAL
bull Font-end bull Site Building bull Module Development bull Content Administrators bull Have you ever entered content into Drupal
WHY DOES IT MATTER
bull Developers donrsquot know what its like to not be developers
bull Content administrators donrsquot always know Drupal bull The backend gets left behind bull Content administrators donrsquot have the confidence to
do their job without assistance
WARM UPS
bull Use the Admininstration Menu (instead of the default Toolbar)
bull Add help text bull Does your structure makes sense to people who donrsquot
know Drupal
Adding help text on fields and descriptions on content types taxonomies and contexts
Dropdowns allow users to easily and quickly get through the system
COMPANY WORKFLOW
bull Intake with the client to discuss their internal needs bull Create a custom workflow for those client needs bull Determine number and needs of roles bull Craft permissions based on client needs and custom
workflow
PERMISSIONS
bull Easier for content administrators bull Focus on what is important
bull Prevents breaking the site bull Prevents content administrators from breaking the
site unintentionally bull Privacy concerns
bull Prevents unauthorized users from seeing parts of the site they shouldnrsquot
PERMISSIONS BY ROLE
Tools to work out your permissions bull Taxonomies - Vocabulary Permissions per Role bull Menus - Menu Admin per Admin bull Fields - Field Permissions bull Content Types - Content Access Easy Exercise for Role Testing bull Masquerade
Too many options to distract Content administrators
PERMISSIONS BEFORE
Content administrators can focus on their tasks
PERMISSIONS AFTER
ADMIN VIEWS WITH VBO
bull Administration Views module bull Customizable view bull Overrides the content user and taxonomy system
pages bull Views bulk operations (VBO)
bull Adds functionality to these views bull Is useful when dealing with a lot of content
It is also easy to create your own custom views to be more tailored to the clients needs
NODEENTITY ORDERING
bull Nodequeue bull Adds an easy drag and drop interface
bull Weight bull Relatively lightweight module bull Works like the weights already built into menu items
for more information on node ordering - httpswwwdrupalorgnode398508
NODEQUEUE
bull Supports translated Nodes
bull Allows separate permissions for editing or ordering
WEIGHT
bull lightweight (only two additional database tables)
bull Uses core node edit page
Display Suite Forms + Field Group bull Clean up the node edit page bull Divide fields into manageable chunks
CONTENT INTERFACE EXERCISE 1 ORGANIZE THE EDIT PAGE

CONTENT INTERFACE EXERCISE 2 TAME IMAGES
Manual Crop bull Users can crop on the site after uploading bull Maintains aspect ratios bull Ties into image styles
Manual Crop
bull Insert images into the WYSIWYG bull Create specific style options
bull Integrate with Image Styles or Manual Crop bull Add additional CSS styles if required bull Alt and Title text fields
bull Encourage content administrators to keep their website accessible

CONTENT INTERFACE EXERCISE 3 REMOVE OPTIONS
bull Field Permissions bull Hides fields not being used by the
client (such as fields used during migration)
bull Override Node Options bull Hides default options like ldquoPromote to
front pagerdquo
CONTENT INTERFACE EXERCISE 4 USER FRIENDLY SELECT LISTS
Chosen bull Turn select lists into autocomplete
tagging fields bull Particularly useful on select lists with
many options

former versions bull Diff
bull illustrates what changes were made to the content
CONTENT INTERFACE EXERCISE 6 UPDATING AND REVERTING CONTENT
CONTENT INTERFACE EXERCISE 7 FIELD DEPENDENCIES
bull Conditional Fields bull Show and hides fields based on the
values of other fields bull Great if you only need content in some
instances bull Helps keep the website unbreakable bull Can be problematic if a dependent is
required
When content isnrsquot featured no ldquoFeatured Imagerdquo upload appears
When content is featured ldquoFeatured Imagerdquo upload appears
CONFIGURING THE WYISWYG
bull Get rid of unused buttons bull Use the CKEditor module (because it is going into
Drupal 8 core)
The only options left here are bold italicize format lists links and images
LINKIT
bull Helps content editors link to internal content
bull Allows users to easily search for content on the system or link to a URL
bull Login Destination bull Redirects users on login bull Use Admin Views and VBO to make website content a
custom dashboard bull Total Control Admin Dashboard
bull Creates a usable dashboard bull Gives content administrators once place to see
content and edit menus and taxonomies
PUSHING IT TO THE NEXT LEVEL CUSTOM DASHBOARD
Total Control Admin Dashboard
