Top 10 Drupal Modules to Help your SEO
Hi Folks,
I wrote a small companion piece to my site editor experience post, called "Top 10 Drupal Modules to help SEO".
As it turns out, I took the Spinal Tap approach and decided to buy the amp that goes to 11, and so, my list becomes the top 10 Drupal modules to help SEO and a checklist module to make it 11.
If I've left something out, please add in your comments.
Here you go: http://www.annertech.com/blog/drupal-top-10-seo-modules

Ubercart Realex 3D secure
Hi all,
I'm adding Realex integration to an existing D7 Ubercart site, and the customer's credit card processor, Elevon, require 3D Secure. I know Realex has 3D secure, but the Ubercart-Realex module doesn't (yet!).
So just putting the word out to see if anyone would be willing to work with me on enhancing Alan's Ubercart-Realex module, to include 3D Secure on D7.
See my comment here: https://www.drupal.org/node/1104048#comment-9947109

Finally finished my first site - Keepit.ie
Hi Drupal Ireland,
Keepit.ie (and .net) is live!
Some of you may remember I presented my site at the Dublin meetup about about 6 months ago, at that time I thought I was about ready to launch... but Drupal had a different plan :) and since then it has gone through major backend and server changes to make it faster and scalable. (with some help from a drupal expert I might add) So I am delighted to say that it is now finally ready to launch, and what a perfect time than to do it this week, exactly two years from the time I attended my first Drupal Open day back in 2013.

A question regarding views
Hi all.
This is my first question here in Drupal Ireland (I haven't answered any question so far either).
I am a bit stuck with a landing page of image galleries I am trying to create. I thought it would be very easy, but...
WHAT I HAVE DONE
1.- The client of one website requested a "week in pictures" section.
2.- I created a content type with two fields (a) a "Date" (b) and an "Image" with unlimited number of values, so the client can upload as many images as she pleases
Read moreSlots Allocation - Team Builder with rules of affinity and anti-affinity
Hi Drupal Ireland,
I was hoping the group could lend their collective knowledge of modules and drupal power to point me in the direction of how the following might be accomplished in D7 or higher.
Is it possible to create a team sign up system which can ensure certain conditions are met. The following theoretical game may help the discussion.

Read moreUsing Bootstrap theme
Hi all,
Just trying out the Bootstrap theme ( https://www.drupal.org/project/bootstrap ) and would appreciate a sense-check on the best practice for working with Bootstrap in Drupal.
I'm trying to make use of Bootstrap's own page layout CSS by adding in the HTML classes it expects to see rather than doing any layout changes directly. I've done this by overriding a few TPL files to inject the classes that Bootstrap expects to see.

It's been a while since we've had regular meetups in Galway.

Adding an external code or a better way...
Hello All,
I have a custom module that allow a user (manager role) to choose between manual or automatic.
If the user choose manual, I want to give him/her a list of users that registered, than s/he can drag&drop to a bracket and save it to the drupal entity "category".
If the user choose automatic, drupal will give her/him a list of choices to select from and than lottery the registered users to the right place in the bracket.
I have created a manual system that do it but it is external to drupal (php, html, css, js).
