Signup!

Please use the built in sign-up functionality so we know how many people to expect.

Topics/Presentations

We'd like to see everyone come prepared to either pose a question/issue they've ran across in the past month or to share something cool/amazing they've discovered in the past month. There are plenty of questions out there, so let's make sure we know what they are so we can get them all answered at this month's meetup!!

Additionally, please use the comments on this event node to suggest topics. If there is a consensus, we will try to have someone prepared to do an informal presentation.

Virtual Meetup!

We will be broadcasting at http://edc.adobeconnect.com/drupalnh
Note that this is the last time we can use Adobe Connect due to the donated subscription expiring. We should discuss how important broadcasting is and look into other options.

Dinner & Drinks

After each meetup, we depart from the "structured" environment, and continue our discussions over beers and/or food.

There is a rumor that another restaurant has opened in the same building as the ABI. We can consider this location as well.

We look forward to seeing you all there!!

I think I can finally make this meeting again!

What we want to talk about?

How about...

I wouldn't mind hearing about how people handle image galleries and WYSIWYG editors. There are so many choices, and they don't all seem to play together well. For instance, I tried to add imce_wysiwyg so that I could browse for images and broke CKEditor. Are there tricks that others may want to share?

The Wysiwyg++ IMCE Image FileField etc. Ecosystem

Rachel,

I may not make the Manchester meetup. If not, at the next Seacoast meeting I can do a talk encompassing combined use in D7 of:

  • Wysiwyg
  • Text formats and filters
  • HtmlPurifier
  • The TinyMCE library (similar to CKEditor)
  • IMCE
  • IMCE for FileField
  • Image
  • Image Styles
  • Insert
  • Image Resize Filter

In conjunction with this, I can also discuss why I selected IMCE over the new Media module, plus why I decided to use neither File Field Paths nor FileField Sources.

Are other people planning to attend the Manchester meetup interested in a talk on this?

I actually have that exact

I actually have that exact setup. CKEditor with IMCE. Trick is to not use the CKEditor module :)

Instally WYSIWYG module and configure it to use CKEditor files as one of it's WYSIWYG editors. Then in installed the IMCE WYSIWYG API Bridge

Install this: http://drupal.org/project/wysiwyg
Then this: http://drupal.org/project/imce_wysiwyg

Then go download CKEditor: http://ckeditor.com/
Put that where you like it. For standards conformance most people put it in /sites/all/libraries

Then configure the two modules above and it works like a charm! :)

Can't make it

Between weather, work, and things to do, can't get down there in time (or in energy)

Next month!

ABI Moved

It appears ABI has finally moved, even though their site still shows old address.

We'll gather here as usual and probably turn this into a meetup at The Farm...

Which explains why no one was
