To help develop a comunity of drupal employers, workers and job seekers. I saw no group that existed, to help people who live in Minnesota. So I create this group, to help add to our support and help grow Drupal within Minnesota.
Thank You.
Global sprint weekend in Twin Cities?
Is anybody thinking of hosting a global sprint weekend event Jan. 25 and 26? I'd be interested in getting together with others do some fun core contribution!
The sprint page lists details forthcoming for Minneapolis, but I don't remember seeing anything about this, so I thought I'd ask.

How do you add the list navigation links for 'first', 'last', 'previous', 'next', and the numbers in between to the top of a view? They appear at the bottom by default, but I'm not sure how to add them to the top.
Thanks in advance!

Best search for Drupal site
I am building a site for a friend's on-the-web radio programs, and would welcome recommendations for how to improve upon Drupal core's basic search function, which is too literal for my purposes.
Is it better to add a Google search box, or are there modules you recommend and use? The best I can find is Fuzzysearch, but for D7 it is still in development.
Any ideas would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!
Read moreNewbie taxonomy question: creating a taxonomy item view with description at top
Hi,
I am new to Drupal, and am using the Open Outreach project to create a website for a local non-profit radio program. I have created a taxonomy with the name of each radio show (there are 3), and would like to somehow create a page that displays the description of the show (taxonomy term) at the top, followed by a list of all the programs.
Here is an example at the old website: http://www.northernspiritradio.org/index.asp?command=programInfo&id=1
Here is what I can get with the existing "Taxonomy term" view: http://northernspiritradio.net/?q=show-name/spirit-action
