Overview

Content types

Spiritual+ comes with seven build in Content types

Of course Spiritual+ also supports the rest of Drupal's default content types: Article and Basic page as well as the Webform content type.

Blog entry

A blog entry, similar in form to a story, is ideal for creating and displaying content that carries images and informs or engages website visitors. Press releases, site announcements, and informal blog entries may all be created with a blog entry content type. By default, a blog entry is automatically featured on the site's initial home page, and provides the ability to post comments. It has the option to be displayed into front page slide show. It provides the ability to attach an image which is automatically adjusted to fit into the websites layout. Blog entry enables free tagging (just like labels), taking the taxonomy one step further.

Cause

A Cause entry is ideal for post goals the organization is after or causes your organization cares for, which may be ongoing and often not associated with a certain event (e.g.: Support for Nepal).

Photo Gallery

A Photo Gallery post is ideal for creating and displaying photos. It comes with the option to be promoted to the front page slide show. It provides the ability to attach an image, which is automatically adjusted to fit into the layout. Furthermore, it provides the option to attach a series of images, thumbnails of which are automatically created and adjusted to fit into the website layout. A Photo Gallery post supports free tagging (just like labels), helping you make the most of the taxonomy system.

Sermon

A Sermon entry is ideal for post new events (e.g.: Masses) with start date/time

Slideshow entry

A Slideshow entry is ideal for creating commercial banners as well as messages for your website. Use it to promote any page of your website or URL into the front page slide show. It can carry a title, a teaser and an image linking to an internal path or external link.

Team Member

The Team member post is ideal for creating a page for each of your team/staff members. Along with a description of your team member’s position, responsibilities and qualifications, it provides the ability to attach an image, which is automatically adjusted to fit into the website’s layout. And what’s great about Team member posts, is that they are all collected under the “About us” page.

Testimonial

The Testimonial entry is perfect to showcase the words of love from your users and customers. Use it to easily publish testimonials on your site. A special View Block and a View Page are already configured to show them off perfectly.

Image handling

Spiritual+ comes with pre-configured image presets ready to be used. All the content types make use of this and produce all necessary thumbnails and other derived images.

Just upload your images and Spiritual+ will use them for the Front Page and any other place where a derived image is needed.
