Remove "export" functionality from Book module, apply to all node types

Created on 18 November 2012, over 11 years ago

Updated 26 April 2024, 2 months ago

Problem/Motivation

Why is book the only content type that has an export/"Printer friendly version" functionality?

Proposed resolution

Idea 1: Expand If we already have this capability in core, it should be removed from book module and expanded to work for all content types, instead of treating book specially and leaving everything else up to the Print module.
Idea 2: Remove If we think that Print module does this better than we currently do it in core, we should remove the book export functionality entirely - and leave that to contrib since we already have a fine solution there.

Remaining tasks

Expand
- move the export functionality from book module into it's own module "export" or maybe "print"?
- confirm this works for all content types.
Remove
- Remove all export functionality from book module.

This extension is being deprecated, see 🌱 [Meta] Tasks to deprecate Book module Active . It will be removed from core and moved to a contrib project, 📌 [11.x] [Meta] Tasks to remove Book Active .

Worth exploring in contrb. Maybe a dependency to print?
