2. TinyD 2.2, the world's most simple and flexible and cloneable content module. Brilliant for making custom page layouts, particularly if you start cloneing blocks of other modules as well (I like to create topic-specific versions of the recent news headlines and recent forum posts to go on different 'department' or 'subject' pages).


Sounds exactly like what I want to do. Could you be a little more specific about how you implement it?

To clone TinyD you just make a copy of the module folder and change the last digit (say from tinyD0 to tinyd1), upload it and install. It comes ready to make 10 copies of itself this way (I think) and it is possible to make more.

To clone a block, have look at How can I clone a block?.

I've got one example of a tinyD/cloned block setup on my site at the moment (the news headlines has been cloned and only shows 1 topic of news).

I plan to make one of these for each topic on my site. If work ever gives me time to look at it!

@MadFish

Thanks for the info. Should prove very useful. If I remember correctly, however, TinyD is to be discontinued in favor of Pico. Have you tried Pico yet? I have installed it on a 2.2.4 site, and it installs OK, but there is no descriptive text in admin preferences. So, I haven't tried it yet.

No, but I expect that it will be a very good module
