Read moreCode of Conduct (for LA Drupal event posting)
Last updated by bvirtual on Mon, 2013-03-11 04:31
This code of conduct is open to the community for input. It came about after a couple discussions at meetups between current organizers and other community members. This is a work in progress.
Background
LA Drupal meetups bring together people who are interested in, use, develop, design, and support the Drupal platform. Some event attendees are newcomers, some seasoned developers, and many more somewhere in between; all share a common bond in supporting the Drupal platform and our community.

Why do you go to Drupal Camps?
I go to Drupal camps because I know that if I learn one new thing or meet one cool person who's willing to share their experiences with me, then it was a successful use of my time. Whatever I learn doesn't even have to be Drupal related, the point is I'm a wiser person for having immersed myself into the community. I organize Drupal camps because I want others to have that same opportunity, and it's rewarding for me to see people get together and share their brilliant ideas and work.
So, why do you go to Drupal Camps (big, small, local, international)?

How to edit the Media fields
Hello,
In Drupal 7.22, when I go to the media library at admin/content/media and click on a thumbnail, I see page for setting title and description for that image, URL such as media/4051/edit?destination=admin/content/media
But on my site, drupal won't let me save asking me to set the required field "License settings for this image" and the "Media Folder". But the dropdown for license setting contains no selection so impossible to set any license setting.

Ventura Drupal Meetup -- Success!
Last Nights Drupal Meetup
As you may know last night's Ventura Drupal Meetup was held at BJ's Restaurant in Westlake Village. There was a diversity of interest in the group ranging from beginner to advanced topics, all shared over drinks and cheesy appetizers. Thanks to Bill, Christo, Jeff, Kevin, Elliot and others for coming out to last night's meetup. Tons of laughs, lots of fun and great conversations.
Tonight's Topics of interest were:
CiviCRM integration
Installation Profiles
I created my first sandbox project: DbLog Event Simple Pager module
Adds simple forward/backward links to dbLog Event pages, via jQuery. This is to help debug if you'd like to move forward and backward through the events easily.

While I feel very comfortable coding Drupal, this is my first contrib module. Thanks to everyone in the LA Drupal community who've helped me at various time throughout the years.

Want to select items by class in a list (views)
I want to be able to highlight selected items in a list. Each item in the list is generated by a specific content type, and I'm using views to present the list as both a block on some pages, and a separate page. Is there a way to pull out certain items in the list and assign a class? I started by adding a field to the content type, so as to flag the specific item. I tried using Context but haven't been able to make it work. Any ideas on how to make this work? (Site is in Drupal 7).
