Website Kit Add-On Options (Modules)
- (Other modules can be requested by library clients on an "as-needed" basis--this is just a sample of some that libraries may find useful.)
- Users looking for a ".mobi" domain will be automatically redirected to a site layout specifically for mobile devices. For example, users looking for http://www.your libraryurl.mobi would get the special layout automatically. More informatiion.
.mobi Loader
See a demo of a .mobi site layout:
- What a regular site looks like
- What the same site looks like on a mobile device using the .mobi Loader module (may take a minute or so to load)
Add to Any
Similar to the Wordpress version. Integrates a http://addtoany.com button to each page or front page story you create. This allows your users to essentially help spread your content to other places on the Web, such as Facebook, Twitter, MySpace and many more. You can see the button ("Share/Save") in action on OPLIN's 4Cast blog. It also allows your site's visitors to email an item to a friend or to bookmark it from one handy button.- Once a content publisher has an Apture account, they can contextually link media to key terms they select on a page. The assets appear in a Javascript box that hovers over the term. Media that is embedded includes photos from Flickr, maps from Google, definitions from Wikipedia, and video from YouTube, but the admin interface allows you to customize your own choices.
- In plainer English: let's say you highlight the word "President." The Apture module automatically opens up a very intuitive interface that allows you to automatically find and link related content to the word. This could be videos, images, or websites like Wikipedia. A terrific way to provide context-sensitive info in a web page.
Apture
Biblio/Drupal Scholar
- This module allows users to manage and display lists of scholarly publications.
- EndNote tagged and XML import/export
- RIS import
- bibTex import / export
- in-line citing of references in "page" or "story" node types (builds a reference list at the end of the node body)
- selectable output styles (original, CSE, APA and IEEE so far)
- taxonomy integration: register keywords as taxonomy and/or assign an entry to an existing vocabulary

Block anonymous links
- BlockAnonymousLinks is a simple module which blocks comments from anonymous users that contain links. It relies on the fact that most spam messages contain hyperlinks and also on the fact that (for now) (most) spambots don't register on the sites they want to spam. It tries to block comment-spam at an early stage.
- The book review module allows a site to publish book reviews. A book review is simply a specialized node, providing custom fields that are appropriate to writing a book review. Features include:
- Provides fields for booktitle, cover image, publisher, copyright, isbn, # of pages, price, synopsis, table of contents and the review text.
- Supports unlimited number of authors.
- Supports unlimited number of web links.
- Provides optional block allowing a link to an external bookstore, such as Amazon
- More information
- This module displays items from a cafepress shop (teeshirts, bags, mugs, etc.) in your website. It can also display a block with a randomly chosen item, optionally provide a link to the item as well as the shop and the "sell your own stuff" affiliate program.
- Allows administrators to set up parameterized breadcrumb trails for any item/page type. This allows (for example)"Home > User Blog > 2005 > January" style breadcrumbs on the node view page itself, synchronizing cleanly with custom views or pathauto aliases. (The basic OPLIN Website Kit comes with standard breadcrumbs.)

Cafe Press integration
Custom Breadcrumbs
- The fbstatus module fetches your current Facebook status, using an individualized RSS feed provided by Facebook, and provides it as a block that you can display on your site, without entanglement with the RSS aggregator.
- The Frequently Asked Questions (faq) module allows users with the 'administer faq' permission to create question and answer pairs which they want displayed on the 'faq' page. The 'faq' page is automatically generated from the FAQ nodes configured. FAQ_Ask is an add-on to the FAQ module that allows users with the new 'ask question' permission to create a question which will be queued for an 'expert' to answer.
- The Five Star voting module adds a clean, attractive voting widget to pages and/or front page stories.

- Access photos on Flickr's site via their API. The module provides a filter for inserting photos and photosets and blocks for a user's recent photos and photosets. An example of use: a library can add photos to their Flickr account and they will automatically show up on the library's website.
- Provides integration with FriendFeed.
- Gives ordinary users and programmers the ability to show a Google Map on page with no programming required.
- Googtube allows users to embed YouTube and Google Videos. When users post a URL to videos on either of the two sites, the link is automatically converted to embed code.
- This module integrates Drupal user pictures with the service provided by Gravatar. If the user has a gravatar linked with his or her e-mail address, it will be used as their user picture for comments, posts, and profile.
- The Job Posting module adds a new node content type ('job posting') intended to facilitate the advertisement of available employment opportunities.
- Ability to show images in a virtual lightbox. Great for image galleries. Fancy pre-loader and transition when you click on the image. Requires the Image module.
- The Links checker periodically inspects the content of all nodes and tries to detect broken hypertext links by checking the.remote sites and evaluating the HTTP response codes. It maintains a table which can be viewed through the administrative interfaces and contains all its findings. It runs in the background, initially going through all nodes, and subsequently only checking updated and newly created content. This cycle can be set to run from zero every week or month.
- This module imports bibliographic information from the Millennium WebOpac (library catalog--check to see what system your library uses) and generates biblio type nodes, which can include real-time holdings information.
- Creates an "office hours" or "opening hours" field. Enables allowed hours restrictions, setting default hours, input validation and uses either a 24- or 12-hour clock.
- Break long pages into smaller ones by means of a "page" tag.
- This module allows nodes (for example, stories or pages) to be published and unpublished on specified dates.
- SimpleNews publishes and sends newsletters to lists of subscribers. Both anonymous and authenticated users can opt-in to different mailing lists. Various add-on modules can extend the functionality of this considerably as well.
- A module that gives the users on your site the ability to offer live support via Skype.
- Tagadelic is a module that allows your site to automatically generate a tag cloud from category terms. By merely altering font sizes, these lists suddenly gain a dimension.
