Download, extracting, installing modules through the drupal front end
Posted by kanani on January 18, 2008 at 2:20am
Seemed to recall a conversation about three months back about using the front end in drupal to download/install modules
I did some searches and can't find anything relevant. I'm putting the workflow below, if someone knows of a module, let me know, otherwise I'll write one
these steps are all done through the front end in drupal
1. enter url of module.tar.gz file(or other compressed file type) you want to install
2. select installation directory (i.e. in the sites/all/themes, sites/default/themes, sites/all/modules, sites/mycoolsite/modules)
3. click submit
