These
include the TinyMCE module (WYSIWYG editor) and the Image and Image Assist modules (for
image galleries and in-line images in posts)

The Flexinode module allows you to define your own data types (node types), complete
with fields of varying types. The data collected with your defined node types can be shown in
table form with sortable columns to facilitate searching.
The Event and Location modules can be used alone or in tandem to attach time and place
information to any node type. Combined with the Flexinode module, the Event and Location
modules allow you to create custom events calendars that not only track events, but also offer
location information based on zip codes and geocoding, as well as deep linking to mapping
services.

The Drupal content management system (CMS) has gained a reputation for being a developer-
centric platform that is difficult to use. While Drupal does have usability issues, the overall
conclusion of this report is that the tools Drupal provides to accomplish the most common
administrative tasks associated with managing a website are all usable.
This report is divided into two areas of study: a usability guideline review and the stakeholder
review of Drupal usability.
The usability guideline review evaluates how well Drupal’s administrative tools adhere to a
subset of the Research-Based Web Design & Usability Guidelines1 that are specific to web-
based forms. Each of the forms Drupal provides to accomplish common administrative tasks
was examined individually to determine if they:
• Distinguish clearly and consistently between required and optional data entry fields
• Detect errors automatically
• Minimize user data entry
• Label data entry fields clearly
• Place labels in close proximity to data entry fields
• Label form buttons clearly
• Allow users to see their entered data
• Use radio buttons and checkboxes correctly
• Group data entry by method type
• Maintain proper tab indexing in forms
