The Grand Rapids Drupal User Group (GRupal) is a collection of developers, designers, content managers, and businesspeople who use Drupal personally or professionally. We meet monthly, at 6PM on the first Monday of the month, at The Factory (38 Fulton S. West, Suite 400). Our meetings involve presentations on technical topics, assistance with each others' projects, and social time for networking and relaxation.
Hi, there!
Just wanted to introduce myself, like the page asked me to. I'm Denise Cheng, and I just arrived from Portland, Ore. a couple of weeks ago. I attended the Drupal group there and found them to be an incredible resource (as well as really awesome people!). I'm currently working on a citizen journalism project for Grand Rapids called The Rapidian, and we're building our site with the use of Drupal. I'm planning to make it to any future Drupal meet-ups and look forward to meeting everyone!

Read morePledges and Donations
I'm interested in being able to set up a pledging system, that can enable donation bounties as a content type, and allows people to first pledge, then be billed if pledges reach a capped amount, or have no one billed of pledges do not reach an amount.
Is it already possible to do this with existing modules (like e-commerce and cck)? If not, I am committed to producing this capability, and would feedback from this group on suggestions about how to approach from a module creation standpoint

Read moreHi, I'm Charlie ("Hi Charlie...")
Hi all, I'm a new GR group member and I live 50 miles north in Fremont MI (I've been here about 1.5 years, just moved here from the east coast, though I grew up in Wisconsin). My big goal for drupal in my life is to convert a FileMaker Pro database solution I developed for musicians called Indie Band Manager to drupal. I think it will require a few custom modules (in contact management, bookings, and financial tracking) and an installation profile... but I think most everything I need already exists and just needs to be tweaked.

Read moreCar pool/Bum a ride.
I live in the commerce, mi area and was wondering if anyone lives around this area that I can car pool with to the meetings. I have a 1980 CJ-7 Jeep so it's not very trustworthy for driving for distances. I would be willing to pay for gas, it's just I don't want to drive down there and have my jeep crap out on me.
