Sites are easy to create using Drupal CMS. But giving nice forms which client can use and set different things on the site will really make our life a lot easy. In this tutorial, I will show how we would use the Forms API and Vertical tabs to create pages in the admin section.

Getting data through Ajax is very cool, and when we can reuse the CodeIgniter views to get the Ajax data, the overall user experience becomes much more enhanced. So, in this tutorial, I would show you how I have used a CodeIgniter view and Ajax to filter data.

The HMVC framework has a lot of benefits and that is why it is always a good idea to work with it in Code Igniter. In this tutorial, I will show you how we can use the HMVC approach.

Time and again we come across requirements where we need to create a block through modules with custom functionality like a custom slider. So, in this tutorial, I will show you how to use hook_block_info and a few other hooks to create a custom block.

In this tutorial, we will see how we can create our custom widget using drupal’s hook_theme and then add into Drupal’s $content available in the node tpl. The main aim is to get the widget across all the content type without adding any code to the tpl.

Recently when I was reading about canonical links and its support with Drupal 7, and I was really happy to see that as always Drupal handles these issues perfectly (rather almost perfectly) out of the box.

Having a dynamic table of content for long articles is a really nice feature. And field collection module is just the module you need to get this feature implemented. To know how, check this tutorial.

This time I will show you some UI goodies using my favourite jQuery. With highly interactive web applications, graphs are must for any application, and jQuery is just the right tool for this.

In this tutorial, I will show you how to use the jQuery and Ajax inside the Code Igniter framework. We will create a page where we will create a drop down of states coming from the database. And once a state is selected, the list of cities will come through Ajax.

This is a continuation of the previous tutorial. In this part, I will show you how to separate business logic from views and use models inside Codeigniter.
