Hello,
I'm just wondering how I can get some content pages packed for my installation profile.
There are like 10 pages I want to release with the profile itself - I guess I do have to have them in an installtion and export them and then somehow import them.
Which module(s) should I use for that?
Any experiences?
Bye, Transmitter

Several options
Your best bet is probably Profiler (http://drupal.org/project/profiler), which supports building nodes during install, as you define in your profile's .info file.
Other options I've seen include:
* building nodes in your profile (the hard way, since profiler makes it so easy),
* Features UUID Integration (http://drupal.org/project/uuid_features) should allow bundling content into a feature (I haven't tried it yet, but it looks promising),
* Feeds, Bones, and lots of other modules allow for pulling or building content, but present their own problems, such as properly placing content into menus (feeds), or programatically calling them from within the profile (bones).
YMMV...

Profiler seems to be nice,
Profiler seems to be nice, but I couldn't get the assoziation between menu links and nodes.
How about a hierachy? Can I do it with the my_profile_profiler.inc
menu-items[impressum][link_path] = node/1
menu-items[impressum][link_title] = Impressum
menu-items[impressum][weight] = 1
menu-items[impressum][menu_name] = menu-primary
How can I add something beneath it?
Beside this:
I combine profiler and features .. I assume there won't be any troubles with doing that?
At least, not problems yet. :)
