  • Event. An event is a story which can be given a start and end date, thus appearing in the events calendar.
  • Image. An image (with thumbnail). This is ideal for publishing photographs or screenshots.
  • Page. If you want to add a static page, like a contact page or an about page, use a page.
  • Slideshow. Slideshows are a series of image nodes that are shown after each other. In modern browsers, the images are changed without reloading the entire page.
  • Story. Stories are articles in their simplest form: they have a title, a teaser and a body, but can be extended by other modules. The teaser is part of the body too. Stories may be used as a personal blog or for news articles.
