Display Suite

On this episode, Bob tackles the new module Display Suite and it's associated modules.  Display Suite is a set of modules which gives extra power to your node, comment, user, and views theming while not undermining the Drupal templating system.  Download and install "DS" and it's associated modules and see what the future of Drupal 7 theming is starting to look like...

Thanks for the awesome introduction to Display Suite! I'd love to see a follow up in the future that covers some of the more advanced features and things you didn't have time to dig into.

David, yeah I agree with you.   I'm thinking "Display Suite - Advanced" for next week (also because there was also more basic stuff I forgot about this week)

Display Suite - Advanced would be totally awesome! I think this Module is exactly what i need for my project, but I don't get it how to theme the displays via CSS. Keep on the good work, i love your screencasts!

Excellent Module (and Episode)... Display Suite really does look a very powerful for custom layouts. I'll be sure to test it out and get my head around it. An 'Advanced' Video Podcast has my vote as it will no doubt add to the inspiration! Also, how about a future episode on User Profiles and how to add features & functionality to them?

 Good to see you again! Your videocasts are just great! I would like to suggest the Skinr module and why not the dev version which is really cool!

Thank you for this video, this module is really awesome! I always wanted to use panels, but somehow always lost in it, but this new module is definitely the next thing I'll try - right after I get home from work and fed the children :))

I like your other videos as well, just as your presentation style :))

Does Display Suite replace the Theme Developer part of Devel Module?

Hi Bob:

This is not the first time that I've been enjoyed with your tutorial videos. Really the way you show the use of the differents modules is very interesting.

I seek every day differents videos to learn how to use certains modules and you make to feel the soul from these videos.

Thanks.
