Many have heard of the "new functionality" coming to groups.drupal.org, and I'm happy to say that thanks to the diligent work of Moshe and Earl, the era of og_panels is here! This addition to the Organic Groups module allows unprecedented opportunities for us to make our group home much more useful.

Tune in on Sunday for a little jam session on this. We'll riff on how best to set up the group, and I'll tape a short screencast documenting how all group admins can make use of these awesome new tools.


about the screencast.

Hello joshk, first of all thank by the video.

I'm sorry to say that I can not learn to much about it because I thing that you don't explain a few thinks. Also, I have been checking drupal.org and drupadojo to be sure that I don't have to read nothing else.

My problem is that I don't know what are the module that are needed, only og?.

Also the access control, How I have to configure it. Maybe you think that those kind of thing are for dummys, but the best documentation is that begins with the easy and finished with the hard.

For instance, in the video I see that you go to this url: node/number/og_panels/form trough a tab, I am not able to get that tab. And If I try to go throught the url with the group owner user, Drupal told me that I don't have permission to do it.

I'm really intenrested in og because I'm doing spanish documentation of the modules as you can see in my blog:

Thanks

Oskar,

This screencast was showing off the added functionality that Panels2 integration brings to Organic Groups. It was not intended to show anyone how to install or configure a module. Just FYI.

Hey Oskar,

You asked 'My problem is that I don't know what are the module that are needed, only og?'. He answers that question within the first minute, he says you need Og along with 'Panels' and 'Views' ...

wow

that's all i can say. Seriously, this kind of functionality (og, panels2, etc) is going to CATAPULT Drupal past all the other CMS's out there-- OS or commercial. very cool stuff.

and thanks for doing a screencast of it so quickly-- reading about this has no where near the impact of seeing it in that screencast.
