Getting ready

The standard installation profile does not enable all of the modules that provide these field types by default. For this recipe, you will need to manually enable select modules so that you can create the field. The module that provides the field type and its installation status in the standard profile will be highlighted.

Each recipe will start off expecting that you have enabled the module, if needed, and that you are at the Manage fields form of a content type and have clicked on Add field and provided a field label. The recipes here cover the settings for each field.
