Topics we will be covering:
-Intro to the various menus and components
-Product and store management
-Checkout system and payment gateways
-Rules: taxes, orders and more
-Reports

Drupal Showcase/Lightning Talk: We want you to showcase your latest project or share a great development tool with our group. Come prepared to give a short 5 minute talk on any Drupal related topic. If you want to use a laptop to demo a website or admin panel, please be sure you have the necessary cable to connect to the overhead projector. Please contact Katy@seascapewebdesign.com to schedule your showcase.
Drupal Q&A: Bring your questions on anything related to Drupal from how to do something technical in PHP to what modules are needed to implement a feature you need.
Cost: While there is no cost for this event, it would be great if you can come prepared to order something (some of us order dinner, some just drinks) along with a 15% gratuity as we really want to keep up a good relationship with ABC Restaurant as they've been great in allowing us to book their conference room.
