User group meeting

Come on down to the Denver/Boulder Drupal Meetup for our second meeting at the Arapahoe Boulder Public Library! Expect pizza! Drinks... well, we'll see.

We don't have a topic as of yet, but if someone has something they want to present upon, I for one am interested in hearing about it. I may inflict Drupal 7 and/or link module on people.

I'm assured that, for all the scary signs, the Library does have 3 hours of free parking.

Location:

Boulder Public Library
1000 Canyon Blvd
Boulder, CO 80302

How to find us

"The room is called the Arapahoe Conference Room. It's just up at the top of the stairs and is glass-- pretty easy to find."

discussion topics

I'm a new drupal developer in Boulder, java background, and have several discussion topics to request. I plan to attend this meeting and wonder how many people usually go.

Page Title
I have an organic group home page/view that includes another block/view and the title of the page is displaying the last node on the page not the page title and I don't know why this is happening. I assume it is something in the block/view that causes it.

Debugging
I use eclipse to edit and have firebug installed in fire fox. I noticed a drupal firebug plug in the other day. I just haven't spent much time on setting up a good debug environment (print_r works for now) and would like to hear more about what others are doing.

Changing the files folder
My current customer has a few drupal sites configured and both were writing to the same files folder. I'm going to decouple the two sites and want to change files folder to point to a new location. Would like to know which tables in drupal I need to update to modify the old file urls to the new file urls. Is the node table the only one?

Thanks

On changing the files folder, I doubt there's anything you need to change in the node table. Instead, you need to look at the files table - that has the list of filepaths that you'll need to amend. Additionally, if your site uses user pictures, you'll need to look at the users table's picture field, which also contains file paths.

Oh - and if you're using webform and allowing people to upload files through that, then you'll want to look at the webform tables as well.

But those are the three that come to mind.

did we get them all?

Thanks for the quick response. Having a feeling of confidence that I find all of the file paths in the many tables is the key!

So I have this:
1. files table
2. users table
3. webform table (if applicable)
4. editor tables for editors that support upload like fckeditor and xstandard?

Thanks,
Renae

Hi John,

Debra and I went to last nights meeting and no one showed. What happened? Library staff directed us to the Boulder Creek Room.

Arapahoe Conference Room is the Room

Library staff directed you to the wrong room - there was about eight of us in the Arapahoe Conference Room, just like it says in the event node above.

I'm sorry you were sent to the wrong room, and I hope you're able to attend next month.
