Default Content Tools
This module gives you more control over default content imported into Drupal. You can choose to prevent default content from being imported during installations or recipe applications, and you can also delete default content that has already been imported.
The Default Content Tools module enhances Drupal's default content management capabilities by integrating seamlessly with Drupal Core's Default Content API and the contributed Default Content module. It empowers site administrators to easily suppress importing default content or delete previously imported default content after module installations or recipe applications, providing greater flexibility and control over site setup and content management.
Features
- Integration with Drupal Core and contributed Default Content APIs.
- Option to suppress automatic import of default content during installation or recipe execution.
- Ability to delete default content imported by modules/recipes post-installation/-application.
- Useful for developers or site administrators aiming for precise control over site content setup.
Post-Installation
Upon installation, Default Content Tools provides configuration settings accessible from Configuration > Content Authoring > Default Content Tools. There, administrators can configure whether to suppress default content imports globally. From the corresponding extension page, administrators can manage the deletion of existing default content previously imported via modules or recipes.
