Spam_Tokens is an add-on to the Spam module. It allows the Spam administrator to control the tokens that are used by the Spam filters to determine whether or not content is spam.

New maintainer wanted. I no longer use Spam (I went to Mollom). Contact me and I will turn it over to you.

Application Module that imports and manages Bills from the U.S. Library of Congress website as CCK nodes. It imports Representatives, Committees, Bills, and Bill Actions. It creates these CCK types when the module is installed, and imports this data on cron runs. It manages the automatic updating of this data as it changes.

It also implements an input filter called the "H.R." filter that looks for references to bills in the input text and converts these to links to the bill nodes. It recognizes several regular expressions, such as HR1234, H.R.1234, and even H.RES.1234 for Resolutions. The input filter must be enabled for the desired input format, presumably "Filtered HTML".

The administrator can control which user is the owner of the Bill nodes, what type of bills to download (Bills, Resolutions, Joint Resolutions, etc), and how much time to spend during each cron run. The module was built with Organic Groups in mind.

The data is retrieved from Thomas via two methods. The primary method is screen-scraping. The secondary method is by reading a document archive of XML files. The reason XML is the secondary method is that not all information is available via XML. However, this second method is important in that it does provide some additional information and it is the main indicator that something in the BIll has changed, and that the screen-scraping should be re-initiated.

This module depends on CCK and date. You must download these projects and put them in your modules directory.

Create Content Block extends the user inteface for creating content by providing a pulldown block of content types and a button for quickly creating new content, the block is OG aware and adds the group id to the links when on an OG page

It was primarily developed because the UI for creating content was clumsy, especially when comparing the difference between creating content when in and not-in an OG page.

But while this block is OG aware, it does not rely on OG. And it has definite value to non-OG sites by providing a simple create content block.

This module falls under the category of "let's improve the User experience". Since this module tries to improve the UI, the button text is configurable.

** This Module will no longer be maintained (shocker) as this functionality is mainly present in VBO and thats what we started using internally. **

Action Views is used together with the views module. Action views adds a view type of "Action View" to the views interface. This will present your view as a table, and adds a list of actions you can perform against the results of the query executed by the view. We have taken a modular approach whereby additional actions can easily be added to the module in the form of an include file.

The typical kind of usage for this module is to execute actions against multiple records, so for example, deleting a bunch of nodes in one go; changing taxonomies for a bunch of stories in one go, etc.

This module alters views' filter forms so that the drop-down or select box widgets are represented as checkboxes or radio buttons instead. This provides an improved interface when the number of choices for the filter is small.

This would probably be better solved with the views module itself, and it is a registered issue there: http://drupal.org/node/122261
But for those who want to effect a global change to all view filter forms more quickly, this module should satisfy that need.
