panels

I'd like to create a custom link in the panels content popup (add new pane), like the current "Existing node" link, that would be "Custom teaser". The panels interface would prompt for node title/id and you could upload a custom thumbnail. Upon save, a single teaser would be dropped into the specified region. This way, users could easily drop teasers panes into regions/columns without having to see all the options under "add existing node." Any suggestions are appreciated.

Would it be valuable to you, the group organizers and site admins on groups.drupal.org, to see a how-to video or participate in a live web conference and see how OG Panels on groups.drupal.org's "Pages" tabs can be used? I recently heard that the LA Drupal group's pages were helpful to organizers of a few regional groups, and I'd be happy to share what I know.

I have just discovered the style bases built into the Stylizer module, and am very excited about this. I am thinking that I would like to create a new style_base which builds panes with CSS3 styles. I realize that this will not be immediatly useful for some people because of the lack of IE support, but it would be super cool and would introduce a lot more people to the power of CSS standards which are supported by most browsers now.

Hey Everyone,

I'm a relative newbie to the use of panels so I was wondering if there is any sort of step by step documentation as to how to create one panel per content type.

I feel like I've looked everywhere and tried everything, and obviously there is something that I am missing (maybe a module or permissions or something).

Thanks in advance.

Hi,

Recently I've created a grid based layout for Panels that features intelligent (well, kind of) adaptability. It renders the output based not only on how panes are layed out but also on how empty slots are distributed. It means that panes automatically expand to the right to fully occupy empty cells in the grid. Thanks to this behaviour very flexible auto-constructed layouts are possible.

The project is hosted on Github http://github.com/bdziewierz/Three-Four. Check it out if you're interested. Comments welcomed!

Hi,

I created a view as a block and I am using panels to display the view. Well what the panels displays is just the link to that view. Is there a way where I can add the view page directly in my panel. I am new to drupal so this must be silly but I am stuck..
Thanks,

Hoppas att sommaren var/är toppen! Jag är nästan tillbaka på jobbet, men tänkte redan nu posta en ny screencast eftersom det är onsdag. :-)

Modulen Panels kom nyss med en ny fin version med en massa kul nya funktioner. En av dem är In-Place Editor, som gör att man direkt från en panelsida kan redigera innehållet i den, utan att behöva gå till panelens administrationssida.

Här är en kort screencast som visar hur det går till och hur det kan se ut:

Panels (http://drupal.org/project/panels) seems to be progressing at a lightning quick pace, offering amazing layout flexibility for displays of content. I've only played around with it a little at his point, while I prepare for integrating it into real work. I'm wondering...

Does something need built-out in Storm to hook into Panels functionality?

I'm relatively new to Panels, and need to do something a little unusual -- I need to render a Panels display into content controlled by CiviCRM.

I can get this to work, but it's a little ugly. I haven't found any good code examples for doing this, so I looked at how Panel Nodes (6.x-3.5 for this and everything else panels-wise) did it, and am doing something like this:

Drupal's Panels module allows site builders to create sophisticated landing pages with custom layouts without writing a line of code.

In this session, Panels aficionados Ezra Gildesgame and Jen Lampton will walk through creating landing pages and taking advantage of Panels' more advanced features, like selection rules and context, to create custom landing pages that are specific to a taxonomy term or node type. Content panes allow users to customize the content in a landing page without having full administrative access.
