Welcome to the Bellingham Drupal Users' Group!
The BhamDUG is currently planning its meetups to talk about Drupal, to contribute to regional Drupal events like PNW Drupal Camp, and have some Drupal Fun. During BhamDUG meetups, we showcase modules and projects, share tips and tricks, and answer nagging questions about Drupal.
This is a geographic Drupal User Group, meant primarily for planning local Drupal related events and meetups, and for supporting users locally.
Don't know much about Drupal yet? That's okay. New Drupal people are welcome!
Javascript in Drupal - Notes from Meetup
Hi everyone,
I meant to post the slides from our session but it slipped my mind. Thanks to Rob for reminding me.
It is an .odp file so for best results in viewing it I recommend LibreOffice. Keynote and PowerPoint should open it as well.

Join us for Devsigner (designers + developers) Conference in Portland this May
The first ever Devsigner Conference is happening in Portland May 23-25, and we'd love to see you there!
Devsigner is a brand new event that will bring together frontend developers and technology-oriented designers and invite them to share their expertise, helping them take frontend development to the next level. We will be using Drupal as an assumed base platform, but since frontend development isn't tied to a particular backend, our audience includes any frontend dev and web-focused designer.
More information and registration: devsignercon.com
Read moreDrupal Core Sprint Weekend!
Mentoring: 10AM to 1PM Saturday, 01/25
Sprint: 10AM to 4PM Saturday, 01/25 and 10AM to 2PM Sunday, 01/26
Q: Do you have to be a "programmer" to contribute?
A: No!
If you've built a site with Drupal, you can find a way to contribute. Documentation of issues, testing patches, writing issue descriptions, and more are all valid ways to contribute to the success of Drupal 8.
If you want to get set up ahead of time, check the thread on the Meetup page with details from the Community Tools workshop from DrupalCon 2013:

Discussion topics:
- Enabling Google Auth for a possible shared Drupal calendar app for the group Drupalize.me sharing calendar (so anyone can setup a login without having to establish a new username/password)
- Learning how to use the Calendar module (for that same project)
- Working with text areas with on-screen keyboards for text input with different character sets (relevant to David Sienko's Native language project, this time on a mobile/Android platform)
Drupalize.me FREE videos: Command Line Basics
Hi Drupallers,
I thought this worth sharing here, given the number of BDUG members who have expressed an interest in tools like drush and git, but need to increase their comfort level with working on the command line to manage a Drupal site.
Drupalize.me has a whole series of Command Line Basics videos that are FREE. Check it out:

Read moreTaxonomy Views
At our in-person meetup last week the subject came up of embedding external information from another node in a taxonomy view. I'd forgotten all about the EVA module, but I think it might work for this.
https://drupal.org/project/eva
From the module description, I wonder if this would help solve the problem of pulling a different node's output into a taxonomy view without using Node Relation?

Freelance or Contracting Opportunity
Hello my Drupalers,
I have a client at WompMobile who is in need of a freelance or contractor to help with a few drupal tasks. It's a spinal correction system out of Chehalis, WA.
Website: http://pettibonsystem.com/
Contact: Miriam Battson, 253-853-5590
Email: mbattson@pettibonsystem.com
Miriam is a sweetheart, so I promised I would reach out to you guys and see if anyone had some open time. She is interested in adding a translation feature. They have some business in China and are hoping to do more international sales so a translation button would be great.

Hi all,
We have a meeting coming up two Mondays for now. If you have a burning desire to discuss something please post so we can begin to formulate an agenda.
Perhaps follow a format like the following:
Title: This should describe what you want to discuss
Estimated Time: Just give a best guess how long you think the discussion will take.
Description: Describe in detail if you wish the topic.
If you have a question, but maybe not a full-fledged discussion, post that too so people can start formulating answers.

Bellingham Drupal User Group Meetup
Let's keep the momentum going! We will meet on Monday July 8th Monday July 15th, location on the Meetup page. Please RSVP via the Meetup page if you're planning to come, so that we have a headcount, and feel free to bring any coffee or snacks that you want to share. We won't do a full run-through of the next Drupal Ladder step, but we will discuss it, and I'll be going over the Contribution Sprint setup steps that we walked through at DrupalCon. I invite anyone who wants to get up and talk about what they're doing with Drupal to make a presentation, too.
