Export all URL Aliases & URL redirects to a file
Good afternoon Alaska Drupal users,
Does anyone know how to export URL Aliases & URL redirects to a file? I've gone the long route before, by copy/pasting the results to an excel sheet. But, I found a few solutions via a quick Google search; however, the steps seem really complicated to setup or I just can't understand the lingo. Can someone translate this for me?! Pretty please! =) http://www.reddit.com/r/drupal/comments/1jb2uz/is_there_a_way_to_export_...
Thank you!
Read moreDrupal 7.2 to 7.16
What version of Drupal core are you all using? We currently use Drupal 7.2 and our contractor suggested an upgrade to 7.16 (in progress today). After some research it looks like this version was released back in 2012 and the most recent is 7.31. We're not developers so any insight would be helpful. Thanks!

I've been asked to pass this along to the Drupal users in Alaska:
I wanted to make sure you all knew about the upcoming Alaska Hackathon (hashtag: #hAKathon - cute, right?) on May 17th & 18th, plus the Project Pitch Night on the 8th.
This year we'll have a beginner's track, so if you aren't a coder but want to become one, please come! If you already are a coder, or a designer, or a user experience/user interface professional, or a project manager, please also come! :)

I apologize for not making any recent meetings (not that my absence is of particular note). The most I can say at present is that there have been conflicts.
I need some assistance on a few issues and would appreciate any input and guidance.
Configuration issues:
I have a number of error messages that I can not resolve.
1) AWSSDK Failed to load the AWSSDK: Please make sure the AWSSDK library is installed in the libraries directory. Use the drush make file for easy installation.

Read moreAdded JSON handling to external script module
In addition to the presentation I did in February :
I added a call to drupal_json_encode in the module.
You can see all of the change at
http://www.akwebsoft.com/images/drupal_group/feb_19_2014/
and fsbo.install.html and fsbo.module.html for code and install resources.
For those of you who weren't there for the presentation, the case study is at
Drupal_external.pdf
The external script correctly decodes the JSON.
BTW: I tried storing all of $GLOBALS at first, but drupal_json_encode (without any complaint)
just return a blank string. Not surprising.
Best Practices - Drupal Upgrading
I would like to upgrade from D6 to D7 on my LAMP server that is currently running 6.19 or something. It's a Live server but nothing is critical or crucial to save. I have followed the Drush steps to attempt the upgrade but I get errors. before I dive into the errors and try to reverse solve a problem, I would like to see what the better options are. Should I just wipe the sites and do a fresh install of D7?
Thank you all!
