Component body
The Content Tree module enables you to organize your site's content in a big, fast, unlimited-depth hierarchy of arbitrary content types.
Features
Administrative interface
- Browse the content tree.
- Add nodes of any content type in any location in the tree.
- Add symbolic links to any Drupal menu path or external links. This allows you to, for instance, have the same Drupal node appear in different content tree locations..
- Bulk delete tree nodes. A subtree must be empty before it can be deleted.
- Hide/show tree nodes/subnodes.
- Reorder nodes using drag & drop.
Automatic path aliases and default locations
- For each content type you can define a Token-based pattern that will be used to construct a hierarchical path alias to the corresponding content tree node. For example: you can define that Page nodes use the pattern [title-raw] whereas for Blog nodes you can use [yyyy]/[mm]/[dd]/[title-raw].
- You can also define several default content tree locations for each node type. Then when creating a node in the tree, another copy will be automatically created at all the defined locations.
Content tree blocks
- Create Menu block-style blocks of any content subtree.
Views integration
- You can use the content tree as a primary table for your views. All node-related fields/filters are readily available.
Technical notes
This module uses MySQL-specific database statements. The content tree is internally represented using a closure table, making it very fast to query any tree location. More about closure tables:
