Drupal Meetup - Views Tips/Tricks

Hey gang,

Not sure what has happened to our local meetups; maybe slowed down over the summer, and maybe not this month due to Montreal DCamp... but..

I wouldn't mind presenting a session on Views for Drupal 6.

For those that don't know Views (aka Views 2) in Drupal 6 has been completely redone from Drupal 5 days.. and IT ROCKS!!! No, seriously, Views2 is by far the most powerful web creation tool on the planet. Even if you were pretty familiar with Drupal 5 Views; you'd really need to see Views2 to get an idea of just how powerful this is.

Organizing evenents across timezones, adjusting user timezone

I am currently working on http://www.nobleprog.com site.
The idea is to make "time discovery" process as easy as possible. Usually we spend a lot of time trying to find suitable time for the trainer and the delegates. It is even more complicated if it is a distance course.
So, so far when a person books the course, they propose the time, then the time is accepted or adjusted by the trainer and then goes back to the client.

Of course each time is presented in "users timezone".
My question is:

Synchronizing nodes from 5x to 6x...

Hey all,

Is there a module that synchronizes two Drupal sites, migrating nodes created one in the other? My sites are D5 -> D6. I'd like to preserve URL aliases if possible. Mainly I'm synchronizing blogs, with all the related comment/user/node issues. I've seen some ideas out there (Node Export with Node Import), but I'd like to know if anyone has done this simply or has some clever idea.

Need Ninja Advice for Slow-Loading Site

We built a large site, a bit module-heavy but nothing out of the ordinary. Problem is that the page flickers on each and every page which seems odd since many pages have very little content or graphics. By flicker, we mean that the white background of the content/node loads after everything else so that purple background pops in first, then the white background.

We turned on the cache and other basic settings. We also moved to a large server, which helped the overall loading speed but didn't do anything for the flickering.

Drupal 6 podcasting: best modules?

Hey all,

I notice that the audio module is still unstable on D6 and hasn't had a release since May. Views podcast is still dev for 5x.

So what are you folks using for audio podcasting in D6 sites? I've seen a discussion or two that were from back in the D5 days.

New Drupal Book : Drupal 6 Site Blueprints

<

blockquote>Bad news is always good news for the press. And so Vaughan Pyre has decided to take advantage of this and create a web site that will aggregate bad news and weird happenings from all over the world. The content of the site will be entirely derived from RSS feeds from several sources; each feed being automatically fetched and its items displayed as individual articles on the web site. Vaughan's intention is to create a lot of self-updating web sites which he intends to populate with Google ads for site users to click and click so that he can make a lot of money.

Los beneficios de actualizar un sitio de Drupal 5 a 6

El comentario de Fernando en la encuesta de que versión de Drupal usas, me animo ha escribir acerca de mi experiencia actualizando una pagina de Drupal 5 a 6. La pagina es Mulpo.com y fue una de las primeras paginas Drupal que hize cuando estaba estudiando acerca de comunidades en línea para mi tesis. Como cualquier principiante en Drupal empeze a instalar todos los módulos que sonaban útiles y muy pronto mi pagina sufría de modulítis, jeje.
