Parent/Child Data Modeling Part 2
Hey Everyone,
I'd say it's time to approach part 2 of our little workshop from last month. What I'd like to do is this:
1: Give all of you, prior to the meetup a full working copy of Part 1. As in the full site completed up to where we left off.
2: Finish up the few items we did not get to at Part 1.
3: Complete a new list of enhancements, changes and features together.
4: Do a complete review on a high level of everything we covered between Part 1 and Part 2.
5: Together, brain storm some future requests of features.
CFCS Drupal Camp Site Assistance
After all this time the site created by Drupal Camp has been migrated to Pantheon and now has Drupal core 7.23.
CFCS hosting is up 13th of July and we are hoping Pantheon will donate hosting for us, but need to get the site live etc.
I have been trying for a week to update the modules and even add content.
I have run into many error messages which I am not able to resolve.
Would anyone be willing to get the site up to date and working so we can start and add content and put live?
thank you all in advance
Cheryl

IRC #drupal-florida is one of our best kept secrets. It's a great place to ask questions, brainstorm, or just chat. Here is a short guide to get you started if you fall into one of the following categories:
- You don't know what irc is
- You haven't been on irc since 1990
- You didn't know that Florida had their own channel
- No one ever answers your questions in the "big channels"
- The bot scares you

A while back I had to customize a entityform form. Try as I might, I just could not find a module to do what I needed. So, I had to take that dread plunge into the the dark work of php, Drupal hooks and functions, and arrays of deaths. Other than additional head trauma, I survived.

Anybody down in SW Florida?
I recently moved to Naples from Orlando to live closer to family. I'm wondering if there are any other Drupal folks down this way? I thought maybe we could organize a get together or possibly a meetup if there are enough of us.
Let me know if you're down here and might be interested.

Omega, Views, Panels oh my!
I am curious. I am sure what I am wanting to do has been done before. I am attempting to build a theme using omega as the parent. I would like for the content zone to contain(at least on the homepage) a slider of images in the background with fixed-column-paneled content on top of it.
In other words the slider moves behind the paneled content.
Has anyone attempted this? I would think a zlayer css-magic trick could make this happen. unfortunately I have been unsuccessful. Thoughts?
