How many times have you done the good old print_r($var); just to find out what’s in the variable?
I have been using the devel modules for age’s but it still surprises me what you can find if you just look at some code every now and then.
The devel module comes with a few great functions which you could use instead print_r();

Often when you create a “Privacy Policy” or “Terms and Conditions” page you may have to link to another page within your drupal site. This can be a pain because you have to remember the full URL and you also have to know how to enter in HTML code. With the link node filter you can easily link to another node by entering:
[node:node_id,title="val2"]

Ever had the need to move a taxonomy list from one Drupal site to another? Instead of re-entering all the terms why not try the Taxonomy Import/Export via XML module. Even though the module name is "via XML" it actually supports XML, CSV and a couple of other formats. To keep things simple we’ll stick to XML.

There are two options when you want to create a FAQ page for your site. One is to hand code an HTML page which can be a pain or you could use the FAQ module and save yourself the nightmare of manually adding in HTML. The module creates a FAQ content type and a nice FAQ layout page.
