Consider Rabbit Hole for Drutopia given half a reason

Sat, Oct 6, 2018

I’ve long liked the Rabbit Hole module, and the fact that Backdrop has brought some of its functionality into their core makes me want to give it another look for Drutopia:

Hidden Paths for Content

Content can now have its public path hidden from visitors, but still displayed elsewhere. This is useful for content that only is displayed as embeds, such as slideshows or heroes. This moves some functionality of the “Rabbit Hole” module into core.

We’re not using Rabbit Hole but we’re dealing with the same problem with videos on https://massdesigngroup.org

The fair question, especially in entity-crazy Drupal 8, is if you make something ‘content’ is there any excuse for hiding direct paths to it? If this isn’t wanted, should it just be some other kind of entity instead?
