Drupal of Miami Workshop
Drupal of Miami
Our Last Workshop
Last Saturday we talked about Categories: Taxonomy, Vocabulary and Terms. Taxonomy is the science of naming and classifying things. Inside of Drupal the term “Taxonomy” refers to any form of organization based on terms, the vocabularies they compose, and any hierarchical structuring of them.
This coming Saturday we will continue working with Taxonomy, Vocabulary and Terms since it is one of the bases for the structure of building a website using Drupal.
Please come and join us for the fun.

administrator cannot edit block content???
Interested in Drupal, we loaded a D7 site on our server, added a $50 theme, and got started. Unfortunately, we're stymied by something seemingly simple.
Lynn created the site, then created my account and assigned it administrator status. However, my login cannot edit block content. Weird, eh?
While I suspect it'll be something silly, despite our best efforts, we haven't been able to get this working. Since I am the part of the team that creates content, we're stuck unless I login as her. What gives with this? See attached jpg please.
