profiles

We are working on an alumni site and we would like to extend the drupal profile to our specs. We want to populate the profile with very basic information; name, and email address, and then notify the alum of their account being created. We then want them to be able to log in and add information at their discretion, and ideally also expose it to certain user roles at their discretion.

Hi guys, just wanted to let you know of a new (maybe great) service that allows experienced Drupal developers start up their Drupal projects quicker.

The web site's address is www.drupalmashup.interestsphere.com.

Purpose of the site is to come to the aid of experienced Drupal developers who have discovered that they rely on much the same collection of modules for a particular type of site. Once you've mashed up your collection you can view the generated drush commands and/or download the (UNIX shell) script.

I'd like to share users on my sites KindChoices.org, Veg-a-thon.com and GiveFriendly.com and have different user profiles on each site, but share users' values for certain fields in the profiles, like First Name and Last Name.

Hi there!

I´ve been around this group for a while, and there have been a lot of new "drupal-for-2.0-community" stuff lately.
Anyway, there´s this thing that´s bothering me since I´ve started to get my hands dirty with Drupal, and I really need to hear what you think about:
Drupal core profiles: They are not able to be managed as nodes (duh!), and you always need some contrib module to do that for you. Can we get a usable out of the box community site?

With the vast amount of profile as nodes implementations, how do you set up your own profiles on your sites?

What I am really looking for are what modules are deprecated and rarely used to the more flexible and complete user profile solution.

Does anyone who is serious about creating complex and dynamic profile(s) ever use profile.module and if so, why?

Do you use any custom coding, and if yes then for what?

I am really looking forward to creating a profile solution for one of my sites and I want to maintain a clean back end and flexibility.

I'm a fan Install Profile Generator modules and didn't see any pending patches for Drupal 6. Can someone please update me and the community on any of these projects being worked on for 6 or a new alternative?

I'm really looking to cut down my D6 installation time, like my 5.x days. :)

I really love this new module idea. Right now i am using Drupal 5,7. So,i can't use this module. I would like to use most likely Bio module or Node profile and collect the user information using CCK fields. Is it OK ? I mean i would like to use this module after my site code upgraded to 6.X. is that right approach ? or should i wieght ? My guess, once if i have this module, i just need to re-assain CCK fiels to content type related to this module. Am i right ...or too much imaginations ? Please advise me

Hello Drupal community,

Like many, I'm creating a networking site. While I'm new to Drupal, I've worked with PHP, HTML, CSS, etc. My question is what is the best way to allow a user to add multiple items to their profile? For example we'd like our users to add their work history to their profile. Since we can't tell how many jobs someone's had, we'd like the option for adding, editing and deleting each job individually (similar to LinkedIn). So do we create CCK modules to enter the information? Use nodes for each job and add a view for them on the profile page?

The 'My Account' pages on g.d.o and d.o should have a option to embed the Drupal Association Badge. Maybe use a checkbox style similar to g.o -- It would be nice to verify the badge, so maybe provide a link to the association membership with the image?
