Just installed a Drupal Module named 'Content Construction Kit'(CCK). CCK is a contributed module (and not a core module) and hence after extracting the module downloaded from http://drupal.org/project/modules?text=Content%20Construction%20Kit , it should be placed in /Drupal/sites/all/modules/ .
Initially, I had placed it in /Drupal/modules/ (which is the directory where all core modules are placed) , but thnx to Saifi, i came to know that its the wrong place and finally placed it in /Drupal/sites/all/modules/ . After this, navigate to Administer -> Site Building ->Modules and enable the Content Module and other modules, if required, provided by the Content Construction Kit. (I got an error saying permission denied, so had to change the permission to this folder and the subfolders and files. You can use chmod command or use GUI to achieve the same). Now, go to Administer -> Content Management -> Content Types . You can add a content type here. After adding the field, click on manage fields, wherein you can add new field and edit the newly added fields. More details on this specific module can be found here: http://drupal.org/node/101723 . That's all about my experience, installing my first Drupal module. Hope this helps someone to install a module. Regards, Kartik Nayak. [Non-text portions of this message have been removed]
