PROMOTED TO FRONT PAGE Example snippet |
| 73 |
|
---------------------------------------- |
| 74 |
|
The default front page when you install Drupal for the first time, is 'node' which displays a list of node teasers, where |
| 75 |
|
the nodes have been tagged as pages that are 'Promoted to Front Page'. |
| 76 |
|
|
| 77 |
|
If you want to recreate that node listing after installing the front_page.module, simply paste the following snippet into |
| 78 |
|
the text area provided on the front_page settings page and select the PHP filter before saving your new configuration. |
| 79 |
|
|
| 80 |
|
<?php |
| 81 |
|
print node_page_default(); |
| 82 |
|
?> |
