I've been enjoying using Drupal Gardens for some small sites – its power and polish are helping me get slick Drupal sites done fast. Recently Acquia has added the full power of Views 3.0 to Drupal Gardens, and tomorrow they're offering a free webinar to show how Views can enhance your Drupal Gardens site.
I imagine this will be useful to Drupal users wanting to get a better handle on Views and its latest features, even if you don't use Drupal Gardens.
From the webinar page:
The Views module is undoubtedly one of the most powerful tools in a Drupal site-builder’s arsenal. It empowers the user with a smart query builder which can be used to build lists of content, users, taxonomy terms and more on a Drupal site - displaying them in ways only limited by the imagination of the site owner. Views can turn a Drupal Gardens site from a simple blog or brochure site into a content rich, dynamic experience.
In this one hour webinar, you’ll learn:
- What is Views? What is the Views UI?
- How to use Views to create content mashups on a Drupal Gardens site
- How to create pages, blocks and RSS feeds easily
- How to theme views with Drupal Gardens' ThemeBuilder
This webinar is well suited for Drupal Gardens site builders who wonder, "How does Drupal do it?" as well as experienced Drupalists who are looking to expand their toolset of best practices.
