About
The C N Portal mind map template is a site architecture blueprint for a community network portal built on Drupal 6. It covers 79 nodes across four main branches: Network Index - Front Page, CMS - Drupal, Leading frm Network Front Page, and Community Users. This template maps out the front page structure, including aggregated content from group pages, menus with links to Network Home, Search Box, Group Categories, Forums, Calendar, Flickr, and Login. It also details the Drupal 6 theme (2 Column) and modules like Image Assist and Embed Media Field. The Leading frm Network Front Page branch outlines sub-sites for Groups, Forums, Calendars, and Flickr, each with their own menus and aggregated content. Finally, Community Users defines roles: Site Admin, Group Admins, Group Moderators, Site Members, and Non Members. This C N Portal mind map serves as a comprehensive template for planning or documenting a multi-group Drupal portal.
