The Columbus PHP Meetup group is sponsoring an Introduction to Drupal. Here is a summary of the event:

Nathan Rambeck of Rambeck Group will be presenting an overview of Drupal, a popular open-source content management system. Drupal powers thousands of sites across the internet from small brochure sites to highly complex sites for companies like MTV, IBM and Sony. The presentation will be about an hour long with time for Q&A and general discussion afterwords. Below is a list of topics that will be discussed:

  • Content Types
  • Blocks (displaying secondary content in various regions on your site)
  • Users, Roles and Permissions
  • Taxonomy (flexible way of categorizing and displaying all your content into groups)
  • URL aliases (create a custom url for any page)
  • Menus and Navigation
  • Theming (a general overview)
  • Modules (how modules work and the must-have ones for any project)

The location will be at a business in downtown Columbus which hasn't been posted yet. Check the following link for an update on the location:
