User group meeting

Drupal Commerce is a professional e-commerce solution for Drupal 7 and beyond. The core modules are lean and mean, enforcing strict development standards, a hard separation of underlying APIs from the default UI, code comments and documentation, and full test coverage.

Core features like Products and Orders take full advantage of D7's core Entity and Field systems. The modules leverage the popular Views and Rules modules to provide easily customizable user interfaces and order workflow automation.

This lesson will take the form of a walkthrough educating attendees not only on what to expect from Drupal Commerce but also from Drupal 7 itself.

I was wondering what was up with that... I just guessed it was normal for signups to be closed on Dojo events. : P

Finally figured it out in a settings form on the Signups tab. It's enabled now.

Looks like they're enabled by default

Thanks for pointing that out. Signups are enabled by default, so I'm not exactly sure why this would happen. Will look into it further.
