Way Out West Meeting 4/18
This month's meeting at the Forest Grove Library at 6pm will cover Organic Groups. Come on out west and participate with us.
We will discuss configuration and use of OG.
Each meeting, the group decides what the following meeting will cover, so if there is something that you would like to discuss at a basic level, join us and we can schedule your topic (if the group agrees) at the next meeting.
Please contact swiftsure if you have any questions.
Videos of Wednesday PDX DUG meet up?
Hi everyone!
Inspired by word of mouth from the Denver DUG, I'm wondering if we could set up regular videotapings of Wednesdays meet up at OS's offices. I think the community at large would benefit from this, and might make newcomers a little less wary about showing up if they've seen a taping of a meetup! I'm up for offering my vimeo or youtube account to serve this purpose, or we could create a PDX DUG vimeo/YouTube account. I don't have access to a good equipment, however. What do you say? Would anyone be willing to volunteer to take on this kind of task?

As always, no formal agenda... just the opportunity to chat, drink, and work in the company of fellow Drupalers. Don't forget to bring your laptop and use the free Wi-Fi. Because AC power is somewhat limited, it's best to charge up your laptop before you come.
We get going at 5:00 p.m. or so, but people can show up at any time.
So here are the details on April's Brewpal:
Date: Tuesday, April 24rd
Time: 5:00 - 9:00 p.m.
Lucky Lab Beer Hall
1945 NW Quimby St.
Portland, OR 97209
groups.drupal.org - help!
Pretty sure this isn't the place to post this, but am looking for some direction. No matter what, I can't get the groups.drupal.org site to send email to anywhere but the address I signed up with originally. I am changing my email address and have removed any reference to the original email I signed up with from groups.drupal.org and from drupal.org. Why is it still sending email to my old address?
Read moreDocumenting the DrupalCon PDX planning
Hey everyone - My name is Robert and I was the guy walking around with the camera at the DrupalCon PDX meetup. I'm going to be documenting the planning and meetings leading up to DrupalCon next year, so I thought I'd solicite some feedback from the group as a whole. I shot a short interview with Neil Kent and put it up on our blog:

Is there any particular content you'd be excited or interested to see... people to interview or get insight from? Your feedback would be appreciated!
Cheers,

Hey All!
Thanks to everyone who made it to the first Portland Frontend DUG last week! In case you missed it, we had a great showing and a lot to talk about, so feel free to join in the conversation. The first thing you can do is take the PDX Frontend DUG Survey.
Read moreThoughts on Syndicated Content + Multisites
Hello All -
I am new to the Portland Drupal Group so forgive me if this is not the correct place to put this. I am setting up a Drupal 7 multi-site (sub-directories). I was wondering how possible it was to create a site dedicated solely for shared content (News articles). It wouldn't be accessible from the web, but it would be a one-stop place for users to enter content (a specific content type) that would be reflected throughout all the subsequent multi sites.
Thoughts?
Alex
P.S. they will all share the same database (different table prefixes).
Read moreDrupal 7 Training
OpenSourcery, in partnership with Acquia, offers two Portland-based Drupal 7 workshops each month:
- Drupal 7 in Day (Monday, May 7 from 9:30am - 5pm)
- Site Building with Drupal 7 (Tuesday and Wednesday, May 8 & 9 from 9:30am - 5pm)
Either is is complete on its own, but they combine to make an excellent foundation for site builders and content managers. They're hands-on and suitable for newcomers to Drupal as well as experienced users of earlier versions looking to get familiar with Drupal 7.
Our Portland-based sessions are guaranteed to run, so attendees can plan knowing that the event will not be rescheduled or canceled based on number of sign ups.
For detailed information and to register online, see http://training.opensourcery.com
