Deprecate Headline module
Reported by dleffler | April 30th, 2011 @ 12:38 AM | in Beta 4 (closed)
Headline module needs to be evaluated for retrofit.
* it allows display of multiple headlines, but the display is not
formatted as with other multi-itme modules (text?) * it doesn't
allow for re-ranking (since it has multiple items) * as
implemented, it doesn't seem to have a purpose. Perhaps this is
becuase of template styling (h1, h2)? What is configuration setting
for (action titles)? Purpose of link

This module has lacked direction from the start. Hard to pin down, not very userful, and nothing that couldn't be accomplished with a text module. I say we scrap it.

(from [40606c2fbe4982c4c47adc44db7e4ba0852f9f7a]) Changed migration of headlines to text items in preparation for headline controller deprecation.
Still gives the anomaly of double headlines after migration because the old headline module didn't display the module title. The post-migrate FIX is to decide if you want an h1 title, make the text item title blank, or if you want an h2 title, make the module title blank.

(from [f09741bf171780956db0b4f0ea4b6136f9015777]) [#151] Primarily an upgrade script which converts headline modules/items into text then deletes the table/files (step is skipped for now). [#201] Adds upgrade script to clear the Smarty Cache on each upgrade. Also updates/fixes some upgrade installation things which prevented version tracking from updating if it had been used once, and moved install_tables back to being an upgrade script.
