Seattle

Events happening in the community are now at Drupal community events on www.drupal.org.

This is a local user group for sharing knowledge about Drupal and networking with other folks in the greater Seattle web/tech community.

SeaDUG meets monthly to talk about Drupal, to plan related events, and to socialize. During SeaDUG meetings we showcase modules and projects, share tips and tricks, and answer nagging questions about Drupal.

We welcome participants from all skill levels and all disciplines related to website building and development - marketers, project managers, developers, designers, writers, devops, user researchers, QA, and more.

Stay in Touch

Jobs

Suggestions for groups.drupal.org

During our monthly DUG meeting, we discussed what's missing from groups.drupal.org which would better support our group: SEADUG

A quick glance:

  • wiki improvements like revisions, diff
  • events including Sign Up, RSVP and automatic reminders

Please post your requests for making improvements to the groups.drupal.org site. Unlike my list here, please be as specific as possible.

After the meeting tonight i (gregory) decided to RTFM so to speak and went over to: http://groups.drupal.org/groups-drupal-org

Dropping Block regions from panels generated page

Jared, Shawn and I were talking this weekend about panels and themes. The question of eliminating blocks from your theme when using a panel came up. I couldn't find the code for this, but just go it from one of my engineers:

    // Hide sidebars on panel pages
     if (function_exists('panels_is_panels_page') && $vars['panels_page'] = panels_is_panels_page()) {
       $vars['sidebar_left'] = '';
       $vars['sidebar_right'] = '';
       $body_classes[] = 'panels_page';
     }

SWF Tools Module Question

Hi I thought I might post a question here as I am stumped. I was wondering if anyone here uses the swftools module with the 1pixelout player. I am having an issue with it. When I attach an mp3 to a node with "upload" and submit I get "Error with xml generation by the onepixelout module" and the player will not load the file. SWF Tools makes an xml playlist that is in the files dir in a dir called playlists, but it is empty.
