Finally we are off to another meetup!

Last meetup we learned how to create a basic theme in Drupal 6. This meetup we will focus on the theme layer again and learn how to customize data output to your liking.

If you want to follow along on your own machine/laptop/pc (in the lab) then be sure have access to a server (DaveB might have this setup?) where you can ftp/ssh to make changes to your theme files. If you don't have a Drupal theme you can download one from: http://drupal.org/project/Themes

This meetup we will make a Drupal 6 theme from scratch. The focus will be more on learning the Drupal theme layer and different methods to manipulating the presentation layer.

Please bring a laptop or have access to a server where you can load Drupal 6 and have access by ftp / ssh to make changes to theme files.

DaveB has scheduled the same lab at Purdue where we met last time (WTHR 212; WTHR=Wetherill Hall).

Please tell us your coming (by the signup button)! Pizza and beverages will be provided. Bring a friend and be ready to get geeky with Drupal!

Dave has scheduled the same lab at Purdue where we met last time (WTHR 212; WTHR=Wetherill Hall) for a Drupal Users Group meeting on April 30th from 5-8 p.m.
Reply on this new thread with discussion ideas.
See you all there!

Hi All. Our first group will be meeting at the WHTR building (room 212) at Purdue University. You can park in the Marsteller Street Parking Garage for free. The walk from the garage to the building is about 5min.

Please let the group know you are coming by using the "sign up" button below. You must be logged in to see this sign up button.

4pm-5pm
The first hour will be for Purdue staff/faculty attendees. You are more than welcome to attend, but the first meeting will focus on their needs more. The first meeting will be a "what do you want to know about / do with Drupal". I have received some feedback already that attendees would like to cover: Drupal for courses, theming views and deploying Ubercart are of interests.

5pm to 5:30pm
Community and Purdue attendees will have Pizza and Drinks. Contributions are welcome. You can continue to eating after 5:30, if you like.

5:30pm to 7:30pm
We will discuss Drupal in general, what's new, how others are using Drupal, their experience level and what they would like to cover in the following meetups. The next Drupal meetup we will have an agenda based on feedback given. If you provide some feedback before the first meetup I will try to cover your requests in the meeting.
This time slot is for both Community and Purdue attendees, although the focus will be for the Community attendees.
