Drupal 6.0 beta 2 released

Published by Kenneth Newquist at 8:28 am under Drupal, Technology, Web Applications




The Drupal 6.0 beta 2 release is out. Among 6’s new features are support for OpenID, triggers for site events, theming improvements, a brand new menu system, and overhauled book and forum modules.

I haven’t tried installing it yet, either at work or home, so I’m not sure what these changes mean practically. I’m hoping we’ll see some sort of native support for secondary menus within Drupal (e.g. click on a primary navigation link, and it spawns 5 sublinks). I’ve had to hack together a solution on two of my three Drupal sites, and I’m not particularly happy with either of them.

The forum module was always clunky, at least when I tried to implement it, so I’m looking forward to trying that out as well.
