Component body

Allows module developers to change the "Create content" AKA node/add page.

With a simple hook you can override the items shown in that page, add, remove or change the helptexts and even change the links where the node/add/foo items are pointing to.

Useful in when:

  • You have a module that allows only X amount of a certain node, after that you ant a message to show up.
  • Your module wants to point users to a certain wizardpage instead of the default node-add form.
  • Under certain cicumstances, other then permissions, you want to omit certain noded-types on that page.
  • Your module creates a certain system-node-type, that is created from within e.g. wizards or automatically. You do not want these types to show up under the create-content page.
  • The module does not replace the default system where the page follows the menu configuration and permissions. It allows your module to simply alter that default data.
    This module does not (yet?) alter the actual forms and pages at node/add/foo.

    I have no intention of maintaining this module, feel free to apply as (co-)maintainer
