Meeting Summary!
Here's what we talked about, you should have been there!
Twin Cities Drupal User Group - May 26th, 2010
12 Drupaleers attended
1000 plus attendees - largest in the US ever!
Drupal afternoon mini-track
Un-conference
Uses views to select nodes, then execute actions
Great for Admins or can be used to create functions for maintainers
Lots of possibilities!
Use the new Webform 3.x beta-5, an the Webform Conditional Dev version
One difference with the 3.x branch is that the webform stuff now becomes part of any content type, rather than being a separate content type.
Uses Java script to present additional webform items based on the responses to other webform elements
Adds a new view style plugin that replaces the views markup with css
Allows you to replace views markup with markup you define
Creates simpler cleaner code
Another views style plugin that creates definable image slideshows
Uses imagecache
Using relations, can create links from the current image back to project pages defined with node reference
There are a number of other similar modules
Requires TW (Table Wizard) and Schema modules
Uses database tables as the input source
Defines the executes the processing of the migration
Saves the migration settings, so if you add more data to the table, it can be execute a incremental re-migration
This module is commercially supported and is very robust!
Next Month's Topic is on Using Drupal for Mobile Device sites. Contact Barry Madore if you are interested in presenting!
