Waterloo Region

I am in the process of creating a document management system. I created a new content type with the multiupload widget to allow for multiple files to be uploaded for categories defined in taxonomy. Then I used a view to display the records. The issue I am having is in regard to the display of the views. When attaching files, I have enabled the addition of multiple files per entry. This are defined in the view as comma separated values.

We are looking for an experienced Drupal developer to help us upgrade our current site to Drupal version 7 (we are currently running v. 5). This is a bit more complicated than it sounds, because our original developer wrote some custom code for a few of our modules (such as the calendar we use to manage equipment sign-ups), and we are unable to do automatic updates without breaking the site.

Telecommuting is fine for most of the work, but we would like to meet in person at least once at the start of the project.

In this session, Kris Olafson of the University of Waterloo will give an overview of the Features module and describe how he leveraged it in personal projects and the uWaterloo Drupal implementation.

He will then do a Feature building walkthrough and demonstrate some potential gotchas.

Additionally, the capabilities of Feature server (fserver), features add-ons and use with Drush will be discussed.

It's getting close to the time where I am going to release my first Internet-facing site (done in Drupal 6, mostly anonymous, with shared hosting). I am trying to figure out the best workflow for deploying the site in a way that will allow us:

• To update content on the live site
• To make structural changes on a development site
• To sync those structural changes to the live site without losing content

Drupalcamp Toronto is scheduled for November 12-13 at George Brown College. It's looking like it's going to be a great conference, with many awesome sessions proposed so far. If you're planning on going, be sure to register ahead of time so the organizers can plan appropriately.

For anyone coming from this area, Via Rail looks to have decent schedules for the two days.

Below are the slides from last night's presentation to the Waterloo Region user's group on Drupal Forums, using The Webmaster Forums as a case study. Audio possibly to come soon if we can clean it up adequately.

For more information, we have two articles on our switch to Drupal Forums here:
