MO References for Drupal

Static web pages in your Drupal website

Got some Doxygen or other static pages that you would like to present to your users in your Drupal website?

This module accepts a path to a folder including a list of compressed HTML documents. The module automatically extracts the files from your archives and serves them to your users as regular page of your Drupal website.

The module is compatible with the Boost module meaning that although it needs to extract the files from a compressed file, it will save the result on your hard disk for very fast access by your users.

• 1. You may want to add some CSS to better style the resulting pages, yet, this software works as if the content of your static web pages were nodes in your Drupal database.
• 2. If you are using Doxygen or a similar tool, the filename of the different pages will change, most of the time, on each iteration. This means others may add links to pages that later disappear. To palliate to this problem, the MO References module will automatically redirect your visitors to the home page of a reference when an attempted to visit a page would otherwise end with a 404 error.
