Drupal 7, PathAuto and Token Modules
posted 12.14.2011 - 15:12Recently I created a website for my micro-cinema project Casket Cinema with Mark Wojahn using Drupal 7. Each month we show a documentary movie focused on social issues. The site has an upcoming event list, a news feed, and a MailChimp email list.
In Drupal 6 I used the Pathauto and Token modules to create custom event URL's based on date fields in the events. Unfortunately field tokens are not available yet. For me this is a pretty major feature.
Drupal 7 was officially released on January 5th 2011, We are just 22 days for the one year anniversary, and there are still major features that have not been integrated. Why so much hoopla about Drupal 8 when Drupal 7 languishes with less features than it's predecessor?
