Recently, LinkedIn introduced their new share button. Like Facebook and Twitter, the LinkedIn button allows users to share relevant information with their online network. The share button utilizes just a few lines of code, and enables users to add this sharing functionality to their personal or corporate websites.

The developers here at LevelTen took that one step further for Drupal users and created the LinkedIn Share Button for Drupal sites.

We often run across parts of Drupal that are not yet exportable using a tool like features.

Quicktabs is one such part. It's a neat module for a lot of Drupal sitebuilders to use. Quicktabs allows a sitebuilder to create tabbed displays of Drupal content from sources like views, blocks and nodes. Unfortunately, it is not exportable like views, boxes and content types.

A few recent clients requested image galleries to feature their projects on their new Drupal websites. Last year, we had similar requests and looked for modules that would meet the client’s requirements, but we could not find anything that worked well enough to keep them happy. I did another search to see if any new modules had come out that would meet the client’s needs, and again, I could not find anything suitable. After consulting with a few Drupal experts, I was lead to believe there are not any.
