Advice for Commerce and Payment Processor
Hi all
I have a job coming up that will require payments via credit card. I have developed Drupal sites before which use PayPal as the payment processor, but on this website, my client would prefer to be able to process credit cards without going via PayPal.
What credit card processors work well in Ireland with Drupal and are they easily set-up? What advice should I give my client regarding a Merchant Account - or do they need one?
Any other advice you can offer - please send it my way
Thanks a mil
Frank

DrupalCamp Vienna 2013 - Nov 22-24 - schedule published
Dear Drupalistas from all over Europe and beyond!
It's official - the schedule for DrupalCamp Vienna 2013 is now online:
http://2013.drupalcamp.at/schedule
We were pretty stunned by the fact that you folks submitted an awesome amount of 60 sessions. Selecting sessions always means that you have to draw a line at some point, but I really think that we were able to put together an outstanding line-up of Drupal and non-Drupal talks for this conference.
Keynotes anyone?
This is really exciting for us! Jeffrey aka. Jam McGuire from Acquia will kick-off the camp with his Friday keynote "Connecting Open Minds" that very much reflects our conference theme: connect with relevant experts from within and outside of the Drupal community.
Equally exciting, but from a totally different angle, John O'Nolan, founder of the Ghost project keynotes the second day of DrupalCamp Vienna: "Focus: The Value of Choosing Just One Thing at The Bazaar" is about the value of not diversifying, but doing just one thing - and doing it really, really well.

Read moreNeed advice on creating a taxonomy structure
Hey peoples,
I need some advice on creating a taxonomy structure for addresses. Specifically for a Spanish address block.
I need to have the structure:
Province
|----------Town/City
However I need to display this as select lists, and there are 45 Provinces. Upon selecting a Province, the Town/City select list will change to contain values specific to that Province.
The only way I can think of doing this is creating:
- a 'Province' vocabulary containing a list of provinces as terms
- 45 'Province - [provinceName]' vocabularies each containing a list of cities

Hey,
I was considering getting involved in updating this site: http://geograph.ie/ and thought moving it to Drupal would be a good idea.

Superfish menu display screwed up in firefox
Hi everyone,
I'm having trouble with the main menu at: http://celtic.ktekhosting.com/
I've made some edits to get the color and border radius etc correct but the sub-menus all fly out from the same location on the left in firefox...
chrome and IE work ok...the sub-menus line up with the parent menu item.
Any CSS gurus out there?
Rick.

Slideshow in header with slides coming from
Hi everyone,
I need to figure out how to build a slideshow that would appear in a region outside content, but take its images from the node on which it displays.
Make sense?
So from a user/admin perspective, I make a new article, and in its edit-mode I create multiple slides (eg. field collection with title, image, link etc) so that when I save it, the images appear in the header.
It seems simple in concept but I can't figure out how I set things up so it creates it on-the-fly...

custom breadcrumb issue
Hi all,
I'm in Kazakhstan on the way to Mongolia, but have a customer issue back in Ireland I can't solve quickly with my limited internet access here. Maybe someone could help?
They want a custom breadcrumb. Few particularly unusual modules, but should mention that their site is multilingual and uses Workbench.
Workbench bases its hierarchy on taxonomy, so for the purposes of this, I'm ignoring Workbench and will just talk about taxonomy.
Read moreMobile menu - a module I'm trying out - good for multi-level dropdowns
http://drupal.org/sandbox/x7ian/1996698
It's one of the better solutions I've seen to date, for dealing with mutliple-level dropdowns.
There's a great example here - http://liceochapero.edu.gt/ - if you reduce the width of your browser
The module has some nice configuration options.
There's currently no active menu action :)
Meaning, if I'm on a third-level page, and toggle the menu, it always starts from the top level.
