Northern NJ meetup - 05/12/10 7:30PM
I missed the last meetup (sorry folks) maybe this time we can talk about the standard modules you download and use right after Drupal Core, CCK, Views, Token & Pathauto. We have a wiki page asking folks to post ideas and whether they were willing to present or asking for someone to tackle the subject. Please go over to here and make your suggestions for topics and discussion topics. There is also a NJ Themers Playday being planned, date has been set May 15. Please RSVP if you are coming and look forward to the discussion!

Flemington Drupal Meetup - March 16th 7pm
Agenda
Q&A night! Bring your questions, we will answer some of them but not all. It will be fun and we will all take away something! I have a projector and should have wifi working but worst case is I have a computer with my Sprint EVDO modem that we can use to bring up D.O or an example site etc.
Introducing Flemington Drupal - A new Meetup group in Flemington, NJ
I just started the Flemington Drupal Meetup a couple weeks ago because I think there is a need for something a bit closer for people in this area. Princeton, Philadelphia and NYC are all 45-75 minutes out and not easily accessible by some.
I am pretty new to Drupal in contrast to the community, about 1.5'ish years but can definitely provide a good foundation for noobs to learn and get started.
Will post more info soon about our first Meetup on the 16th.
Cheers,
Elijah Lynn

Zivtech Training: Drupal Architecture
April 12, 2010: One Day Drupal Architecture Training in Philadelphia
http://www.zivtech.com/services/train/drupal-architecture-training
The key to building a great Drupal site is smart architectural decisions at the beginning of the project. An understanding of Drupal architecture is critical for site-builders as well as project managers, well-informed decision makers, and designers working with Drupal.

Intro to Drupal Module Development
http://www.zivtech.com/services/train/intro-drupal-module-development
Our Introduction to Module Development class provides a hands-on crash course in solving specific problems by building custom modules. This training focuses on how to approach a specific problem that existing modules simply do not solve. Students follow along in individual development sandboxes as we guide them through putting Drupal's APIs to work. Attendees will leave the class with a working knowledge of Drupal's menu, form and hook systems as well as the database layer.

PHP for Drupal
http://www.zivtech.com/services/train/php-drupal
This day-long training will be an introduction to PHP from a Drupal perspective. We'll introduce you to PHP syntax, key Drupal functions, Drupal coding standards, and get you reading and writing some Drupal code. We'll also get you used to using the Drupal codebase and API to solve problems.
This training is designed for folks who have Drupal experience but are new to writing code, or have coding experience but are new to PHP or Drupal.

Event Calendar
I was wondering if anyone has been successful in building an organization event calendar.
I have followed several howtos, and always seem to get stuck when the events are listed in the calendar view at the time of creation of the node, instead of the date of the event.
Other issues, such as how to create multi-day events, etc are also troubling 9I have not gotten that far)
I would also love to have a "Upcoming events block" that lists the next several upcoming event nodes, and automatically selects for the next week. (I actually got this close to working, but screwed it up)

Themers Play Day (NJ)
In a discussion started in the New York City Group, it was suggested by johnvsc that I organize a Themers Play Day here in Jersey. At the Northern NJ Meetup robbiethegeek agreed it was a good idea. They have both offered to assist me in this endeavor.
Date Confirmed
Saturday, May 15 is the day I reserved the room.
Read moreCentral NJ meetup, March 3
I assume we'll stick to the same focus since we had to cancel the last meeting.
Proposed focus:
Active coding and mutual assistance on code, themes, and other technical issues. Come get input or help from fellow Drupal users. Show everyone your code or talk about the challenges you are facing. After initial discussion, work in smaller groups including one focused on tacking one or more Drupal 7 bugs.
Read morePhiladelphia Drupal MeetUp - February 17th
Please join us at Zivtech HQ for our February Drupal MeetUp. As usual we'll have pizza and beer and we'll split into two groups (beginners upstairs in the lounge, non-beginners in the main area), but unlike last time we'll have plenty of chairs, and we'll probably remove the tables in the main area to make room for more people.
If there are any subjects people would like covered in the non-beginner group please speak up, otherwise we'll just do a show-and-tell like last time.

Northern NJ meetup - 02/17/10 7:30PM
Hey all last meetup went really well I think and we had a great turn out. There was some discussion after the meetup about topics getting covered, along side the Q & A and Drupal assistance, and I couldn't agree more. So with that in mind I posted a wiki page asking folks to post ideas and whether they were willing to present or asking for someone to tackle the subject. Please go over to http://groups.drupal.org/node/46282 and make your suggestions.

Hey all, I wanted to touch base and ask people who are coming out to the Northern NJ meetups or are thinking about it what would you like to see dealt with subject-wise at these meetups? I am thinking we can have a set amount of time where someone can talk about, explain, demo, or pontificate about at the meetup and still have a meet & greet few minutes and finish with the group helping one another on real world problems.
Please add your suggestion here and we can start tackling them at upcoming meetups, maybe even make a poll of all of them and let people vote.
