DrupalEasy Podcast 73: Lots of Options
Posted Tuesday, January 31 at 3:28 pm
  Thomas Turnbull (tom_o_t on drupal.org) and Alan Palazzolo (zzolo on drupal.org) join Mike Anello to talk about their new book from O’Reilly Media, Mapping with Drupal. Mike’s usual co-hosts, Andrew and Ryan, were both unable to participate in the podcast, leaving Thomas and Alan subject to Mike’s long-winded (but extremely interesting by some accounts) questions.

Flag

Allows your users to mark (flag) content to be listed or acted on. Think bookmarks, buddylists, or offensive comments. <140

Like a Souffle rising in the oven, the Flag module rose above its predecssor, the Drupal 5-based Views Bookmark module to expand the palette of flagging possibilities in the Drupal cookbook.

This module integrates well with various other Drupal modules including Views, Actions (part of Drupal core), Rules, and Token. It also has an API with limited documentation.

Flags can be global or per-user. Global flags are shared among all users - an example might be "flag as offensive". Per-user flags are not shared - an example might be a user "favorites list", where they flag their favorite content on the site and then a list of all their "favorites" is placed in a sidebar.

The Flag Weights module makes it possible to reorder flag in an arbitrary manner.
