I have recently jumped into the Drupal community with both feet, after 4 or 5 months of tinkering more or less on my own. I was glad to find a western Mass. group, and was curious as to whether there are any upcoming meetings in the works... or better perhaps to wait until the fall?
Hope everyone is having a good summer!

Drupal
I was gone all winter but just came back to the area. If there is a meetup I'll go...
Currently working on http://www.pioneervalley.org/ in Drupal, but encountering a small hurdle with getting the Views Module to do what I want it to...
Hi J.
What is it you need to do - maybe I can help. Rick
taxonomy and views
Hi Rick,
I'm looking for a way to override the default taxonomy term pages... so that when you click on a taxonomy term on a post or on a view, you are taken to a custom table view of nodes that fall under that taxonomy term instead of a list of 10 teasers of nodes that fall under that taxonomy term.
For example: taxonomy term Pennsylvania lists all posts tagged with Pennsylvania. I would like to mass-replace those kinds of teaser lists with custom table views that look more like this view.
I'm hoping there is a way to do it...
You can do this with Views
You can do this with Views and some theming overrides in your template.php. I'll try to dig up an example.
Here's one: http://egonbianchet.net/drupal-tag-cloud-tagadelic-and-views

Thanks for that tip. I'll try out that example today.
Thanks
I think I have part of it worked out now... I also used the ideas here:
http://www.lullabot.com/articles/how_to_build_flickr_in_drupal
Basically build a custom view that takes a taxonomy argument -- then override the links in $terms.
I'm wondering if there is a way to join terms from two different vocabularies in a view. Will tackle that tomorrow...
