The word content is deceptively simple. And the idea of managing it can mean many different things to different organizations. Dealing with the subtleties that lie in wait is why we have content management systems.
In this chapter, I lay the foundation for a solid understanding of how Drupal’s content management internals work and how you can use the system to address your specific needs. I deal with the key concepts, look at managing content types, and then go into the details of daily content management tasks.
