Meetups
Lunchtime - Salt Lake City
There is a meetup in downtown Salt Lake City on the 2nd Thursday of each month. An event is posted for each meetup a week or two in advance to determine topics and manage other plans.
Meetup Topics
We will be planning and organizing topics for our meetups here: Meetup Topics
Best registration system (no $$ collected) ?
We need a better registration system for our free computer software classes/workshops at our library. I also want to use it to demonstrate the power of D7, and the value of moving from a home-grown CMS to Drupal. What combination of modules do you find work best for this situation? We do not need to collect money in any way, just:
* allow participants to register and un-register
* post documents and files to download and print (handouts, etc.)
* search by workshop/class title, content (Windows vs Mac, etc.)
* see list of all classes sortable by title, OS, date
RE: Drupal Developer | Romney For President
It seems one can't reply to job postings... anyway, spoke with Liza (liza@oho.com) who posted this job and I wanted to clarify to the group that they are hiring for Downtown Salt Lake City. It does mention that in the posting but when you go to the website it lists the jobs as Boston.

Read moreFavorite theme for both mobile and desktop sites
Greetings everyone,
I am now building a site for my director that she wants both mobile and desktop computer layout for. What themes, or combinations of themes, do you recommend for out-of-the-box functionality in this area? I need to be able to make the layout match University of Utah standards (colors, headers & footers mostly) without a lot of complex CSS. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance!

May Salt Lake DUG Meetup - Thursday May 10th
Time again for a DUG meetup in Salt Lake. We will be holding it at the Walker center (just like every month). Signs will be placed to direct you on how to get up to the conference room where we will be (usually by calling to have someone come let you in). If you are there at 7:00pm we usually wait for a few minutes for people to show up before we enter.
Read morepreDUG Meetup
Starting this month we will be having pre-meeting meet ups. Yes, more cowbell... but in Drupal form. This will be similar to what other groups are doing with "mentored training" before their DUG meetings. But less structured. This is an optional social gathering prior to our regularly scheduled DUG meeting. Bring your laptop, questions and your expertise because the purpose of this gathering is to share ideas and help others with theirs... and of course socialize.
Read more24 hr vs 12 hour: how to switch?
I have created a content type called "Event" and added a "Date" field to indicate the date and time. I cannot seem to force it to display time options in 12-hour instead of 24-hour view, whether I use a "popup calendar" or "select list" widget.

Public versus private forums
Struggling with permissions and comments on forums and forum topics.
Read moreForcing new page into specific menu
I have created a new content type ("Collaboration Space") that is a basic page plus a field for uploading files. Whenever a user creates new content using this type, I want it to go to a specific menu location (item in the main menu) without the option to change it. Is this possible, and if so, how do I do it?
Thanks in advance!

Filtering a view by visitor type (authenticated or not)
All:
I have created a "Calendar" view that is populated by a content type called "Event," which includes a field "Event Type." There are 2 types of events, public and private. I want my Calendar view to filter out private events for anonymous users/visitors to the site while still displaying the public ones. I want both the public and private Events to display for authenticated users. I have been playing with Filter Criteria and Contextual Relationships, but cannot seem to get the right combination to work. How do I make this happen?
Thanks in advance!

Utah Open Source Conference 2012
There is an open source conference coming up next month. I attended a few years ago and it was a lot of fun. Plus, it's a good place to stock up on free Linux stickers for the back of your laptop.

Dynamic view displaying images
Sorry for my absence from the group. Life's been crazy the last several months with this new job, and my time in Drupal has been limited up until just now.
In the process of coming up with a dynamic way to replace the following page for a client site: http://www.mymindseye.com/MC/MC.asp
