The October meeting of the San Diego DUG is happening on Wednesday November 10th at the Hall of Champions in Balboa Park.
This month We have Zakiya and Bill doing a joint talk on theming drupal. They'll be covering a range of themeing topics from selecting a theme, making a subtheme, utilizing .tpl and .info files, fusion and skinr tricks, to slicing up comps, theming nodes and views.
If you want to learn the basics about how to get into themeing Drupal, you're gunna want to check this one out!
We also have some exciting Sandcamp updates to share, so we'll talk about those a bit before moving on to our usual round of lightning talks.
Lightning talks give anyone (and I mean anyone - you, the person next to you and the one across the room) the chance to discuss a recent Drupal thought, observation, or experience that takes five minutes or less to talk about. You can teach us something, wonder out loud why X doesn't work like you think it should, or ask questions about some Drupally thing you're struggling to understand. The only rule for Lightning Talks is that you're going to be stopping at five minutes whether you're done or not. Other than that's it's fair game, so step up and have fun!
Newcomers are always welcome, bring any of your friends that might be interested in learning about Drupal. We hope to see you on Wednesday at the Balboa Park Hall of Champions.
We'll also have a Sandcamp planning meeting regarding sessions in the same room as the DUG starting at 6:30. If you're interested in giving a session or you want to give us your input on which sessions we need to have covered for the newbie track, please come a little early and talk it over with us.
