My Drupal Modules

Okay, I know there are a bazillion Drupal modules and you can become like a young kid on Christmas day going crazy downloading and trying various modules on your Drupal installation, often to your detriment (as some are not very good and can foul up your site). What I'll do here is breakdown what modules I use to drive this site and why I use the module (i.e. what benefit does it give and why might you use it). In general, if I'm using the module then I've found the module to be stable and provide the functionality I need.

Let me put in a quick plug for using Drush. With this module installed, you can command-line install any other module or update all your out-dated modules in essentially one command. In my opinion, running any Drupal system of any size (i.e. more than 5 modules installed) requires this module. This is the ultimate meta-module and just makes Drupal so much more enjoyable and practical to administer. The column titled "Code" in the table below is what you need if you wish to install that module using Drush. For instance, drush dl content_access will download the Content Access module and drush en content_access will enable it. Handy indeed!

Okay, without further ado, here's my list of modules I use to run this Drupal 6.x site. It is sort of long and involved so bear with me.
