Training Opportunities

Good morning,

I just joined this group, looking for training opportunities in the Pacific Northwest. We moved our site (www.co.polk.or.us) over to Drupal this past summer, so I am pretty much still a newbie. Now that the basic framework is in place, I want to work on improving the theming (not at all happy with what we're currently using), setting up a better search tool, etc.

Can you recommend any training options? We are near Salem, Oregon.

First in-person meet-up of Eugene Drupal Users Group, March 3

Hi all,

We're getting folks together for a local meet-up in Eugene. Please come if you can. Here's a press release that went out to some local email lists and papers:

The Eugene Drupal Users Group will hold its first meeting on Wednesday,
March 3 from 6-8 PM at Deschutes Hall, the UO Computer Science Building, in
the second floor meeting room.

The purpose of this first meeting is to establish areas of participant
interest and how to structure future meetings to best support the interests
of folks working with and interested in working with Drupal. Alex Bronstein
from YourLibrarySite.com will speak briefly about what's coming in Drupal 7.
Alex has been actively involved in Drupal 7 core development, and is
currently one of the co-maintainers of the Form API.

Drupal is an open source web CMS that was established over 9 years ago. It
is widely used by, universities, media sites, libraries, government sites
(e.g. whitehouse.gov), and other community-oriented organizations. The
Eugene Drupal Users Group is open to Drupal programmers, hobbyists, and
others interested in the tools and resources Drupal offers. Newcomers
welcome!

The Eugene Drupal Users Group plans to affiliate with the Willamette
Valley/Western Oregon Drupal Developers Group-
http://groups.drupal.org/willamette-valley-western-oregon.

If there's interest, we'd love to make this a monthly thing and have it tie into the larger Willamette Valley group. It would be great if someone in this group who isn't in Eugene comes, so we can discuss how to best serve the larger group.

Panels 3 / Ctools -- Edit Panel Content menus load extended

I've just updated from Panels-2 to Panels-3. I've run into some theme problems with Ctools. On the Edit Panels Content page, the page loads with all the CTools drop down menus expanded. This happens with my custom theme, but not with the Garland theme.

Has anyone else run into this? Any suggestions on how to fix?

thanks

Allow voting on a panel pane?

I have panel pages that contain panes of RSS feed items. I'd like to enable user voting for a feed pane. I haven't found a way to do this with fivestar or the votingapi. Is there a way to do this without a lot of programming modification to either the panels or feed aggregator modules?

Thank you.

    Carpooling to meetings from Corvallis?

    I'm looking to get more involved with Drupal, I've tried to carpool with a friend to the Portland, Oregon Drupal Users Group meetings, but he's been unable to go, so I'm taking matters into my own hands. I'm a student at OSU and lack a car.

    If anyone is going to any of the Drupal Users Group meetings from the Corvallis area and wouldn't mind swinging by campus before heading up to meetings, I'm more than happy to provide with help with gas money.

    Thanks,

    Nielsonm

    Corvallis meeting?

    I went up to the monthly Portland Drupal User Group meeting last Wednesday, and it was great. I got to meet some really knowledgeable people and learn more about the Drupal community. I'm new to Drupal and I found the few hours I spent at this meeting as helpful as many hours reading stuff online.

    Drupal coding best practices?

    My goal is to build some community websites. Features include ratings, link sharing, user profiles, group calendars, etc.

    Drupal provides much functionality out of the box. Modules extend that functionality.

    With Drupal I can go in the right direction, but I am having lots of difficulty customizing the solution to meet my needs.
