Drupal based web-site is hacked
Hi All,
Recently my drupal based web-site was hacked. The following is more information:
Title: hacked by you
Date/Time: This website is still defaced as of 05/06/2013 10:20 AM (EST)
Defacer: Hmei7, ulow, s13doeL
Domain: hxxp://comm-res.oswego.edu/x.php
IP Address: 129.3.1.35
System: Win 2008
Web Server: IIS/7.0
These is the first time and I don't know where to start the process and how to identify/detect what happened and how to prevent it from future issues. I highly appreciate any ideas or thoughts.
Thanks,
Sadig
Registration Modules (ie Logintoboggan)
Once again it seems there's a whole slue of ways to go about something in drupal. I came across this tutorial http://www.pasadamedia.com/news/drupal-7-user-login-and-registration and thought I would get your opinions on this topic, if possible. I've used LoginToboggan before, which this tutorial doesn't go into. In fact, that tutorial uses quite a few modules, including Facebook OAuth, which I'm interested in, plus some spam deterrents. Is the method and set of modules used in this tutorial "good practice" and "current thinking"?

Mar 2013 Niagara/Hamilton Meetup
It's that time already! We're back in Niagara this month so we can meet at the board room beneath the Upper Rapids offices at:
Community Resource Centre
5017 Victoria Ave
Niagara Falls, Ontario
L2E 4C9
It's the big brick building next to the Armoury. Feel free to park in the lot despite what the signs say.
Agenda:
- introductions, social time, etc
- discussions - I'm happy to talk about the Relation module and how it compares to things like EntityReference, or if that's too dry, something else entirely.
- we'll head down the road to Taps on Queen for some local craft beer
Drupal 7 Module Development Training in Toronto
Drupal is a modular, open source web content management framework that ships with basic functionality in the form of core modules. For the most part, you add new functionality with third party modules (known as contributed modules) that can be downloaded from Drupal.org. At some point you may find limitations. You may want to modify functionality in a contributed module or core. You may want to move your configuration to code, or access an external data source.
Read moreDrupal 7 in a Day Training in Toronto
Get a solid introduction to Drupal 7 in one day. Learn about the most essential features and concepts of Drupal through hands on activities. By the end of this day you will be familiar with Drupal terminology and be able to identify how many Drupal sites are constructed. You will know how to identify and choose modules to get the functionality you need.
Because this class will be an overview and not an in-depth course, it is perfect for people who are on the fence about using Drupal or who are looking for a hands-on introduction.

http://groups.drupal.org/node/277768
If we want to do someone on either March 9th or 10th for Drupal Sprint Weekend I'm pretty sure I could secure office space (in Niagara Falls) for it and my company could supply some food / coffee / whatever. Not sure if we have time to get something together, but if there's interest I'll see if I can organize something.

Read moreColorbox Plugin Help, please!
Hey guys! I took another look at the Colorbox situation this morning (module and plugin pages) and tried something I found, but it still doesn't work for me. Could someone possibly either send me the plugins they have via zip or give me the location where I can download ALL the plugins I need? I would love a screencap of the file structure within the libraries folder, if it's not too much trouble, so I know what to shoot for. I can't believe it's this hard to set it up!
Thanks in advance!

Multisite vs. Domain access
I think I am suffering from paralysis by analysis in deciding whether to use domain access or multisite.
I am working on a school board's development of a new Drupal configured website. The main school board website has been developed and launched, and now I am working on the school sites. There are around 30 subdomains that will be used for these school sites.

Hamilton Venue
As previously discussed in this group, we would like to try meeting in Hamilton.
I've been looking into a couple Hamilton venues. I have tentatively reserved The Winking Judge on third Thursdays. It seems like it could work however there is a significant caveat: no wifi. (I scanned when I was there and didn't get any open neighbouring wifi either). On the bright side, they have an exceptional selection of micro brews on tap. http://www.winkingjudge.com/
