WE MEET THE FIRST THURSDAY OF EVERY MONTH AT ActiveLAMP IN VICTORVILLE.
MEETING THIS MONTH ON SEPTEMBER 2nd AT 12pm (LUNCH TIME)... AND FREE LUNCH
That's right, ActiveLAMP will be buying pizza and soda for all attendees. Come join us at the ActiveLAMP office, and tell your friends.
The High Desert Drupal group meets the first Thursday of every month. This local group is a nice place for people to learn and talk about Drupal, a world popular content management system (CMS). We also talk about web development in general, covering all aspects from planning, design, development, and maintaining a web site. RSVP is not required and attendance is free. Tell all your friends!
What are we going to talk about?
Context and Features
This month Tom Friedhof from ActiveLAMP will be talking about two modules that Development Seed released. The respected module descriptions are below from their module pages.
Context allows you to manage contextual conditions and reactions for different portions of your site. You can think of each context as representing a "section" of your site. For each context, you can choose the conditions that trigger this context to be active and choose different aspects of Drupal that should react to this active context.
The features module enables the capture and management of features in Drupal. A feature is a collection of Drupal entities which taken together satisfy a certain use-case.
