Organizers: 
Event type: 
User group meeting

Where: The Millstone room at the Missouri History Museum in Forest Park
When: 7pm on the 15th
What: TBD (We typically have an open floor where all ideas, issues, questions, gripes, etc can all be discussed)

Missouri History Museum
(At the intersection of Lindell & DeBaliviere in Forest Park)
5700 Lindell Blvd
St. Louis MO 63112
Millstone Classroom on the second floor

Parking is available on either the east & west lots (although the entrance is on the west side so I'd park there). Enter through the door by the loading dock, past the security desk and through the hall, and up the stairs straight ahead to the second floor. As soon as you come up the steps to the second floor, make a right and the Millstone Classroom is just opposite the men's restroom down the hall.

IF THERE IS NO OTHER EVENT GOING ON THAT NIGHT THE FRONT DOORS WILL NOT BE OPEN!!!

Here's links to maps of the park & the museum:

Can we post a new post maybe

Can we post a new post maybe this time, at the top of the group page, for this meetup? It seems the past couple meetups have been sparsely attended, possibly because the notifications aren't including new event notifications.

Also, any suggestions for how we can spread the word via other channels are welcome.

potential Nov topics

I'm willing (and excited) to lead any of these topics:

1) Site building 101 - when to use taxonomy vs a new content type vs node reference vs BEAN vs text field on existing content type and use Display Suite.
2) Enterprise type services for Drupal sites made easy. How to (easily) configure Varnish caching and Apache Solr for your website. What are the recommended modules and configurations?
3) How to write your first (basic) module to alter a view, form or page. And when is it more appropriate to use a contrib module instead...

I'm interested

Lucas, I'm interested in #3 on your list. I'll be there. We could also discuss how to increase attendance at these meetups.

Hey guys, just an FYI.

Hey guys, just an FYI. There's an event going on in the Main Hall tonight so you might have trouble finding a spot in the lot near the loading dock. You can still come in through either the door by the loading dock or through the front.

Also, I forgot to secure a mac dongle so if anyone wants to present and has a mac you'll need to bring your own.

I might be able to make it

I might be able to make it late. Anybody there yet? I'm running a bit behind today...
