Hello everyone, if your wireless drops or if you do not have a laptop just use your smart phone. The mobile site has a useful interface to view the schedule by day and by track.

I am hosting a BOF in room 206 at 4:15pm today, Monday to present how we created the mobile version of the DrupalCon website. The mobile version will automatically load for all webkit based smart phones.

Inspired Environment Bug hunting / QA Employment type:  Part time Employment type:  Contract Telecommute:  Allowed

I have a client that has a redesign that was ditched by an irresponsible developer.

I'm not going to pretend there's not issues. I've done a thorough autopsy and I'm an experienced PM so if you have a sense of adventure and a better sense of humor, ping me.

I've been an agency for 7 years and have off-shored all my work for as long. I want to start developing relationships in Austin with someone interested in getting their toes wet. I work from home in South Austin. You're welcome to post up here or from your own place. The site can / will turn into a redesign and ongoing maintenance after we get this version in a condition that can be launched.

Thanks and look forward to talking with you.

Pantheon Demonstration Screencast and Early Customer Program

Thanks to all of you waiting patiently while we are heads-down building Pantheon.

Finally, we've been able to collect all the movies and edit them together. Unfortunately the quality isn't great in the first few minutes, but it's getting better and I hope you'll enjoy watching it.

Thanks to our "camera guys" - David Mollière and Peter Stumpf (that as it turns out, is really working for the UN and uses OG for that!)

For those who want too see the technical stuff from the session I gave should follow this link. I hope this will encourage people o try out Organic groups for Drupal 7 and help in making it a great module.

This post assumes that you are familiar with the unix command line. If you are not then I recommend the video from Addison Berry session “The command line is your friend” from DrupalCon Copenhagen 2010.

I have something of a passion/obsession with removing annoying obstacles in my every day tasks. I want good tools that are adapted to the way I like to work. Here follow my best tips for making the command line a pleasant place to get work done.

Birds of a Feather (BoF) sessions have quickly become an integral and essential feature of the evolving Drupalcon format. The open BoF format provides a platform for participatory discussions and focused collaborative work sessions. For many topics not included in the official Drupalcon schedule, this format is much more appropriate.

Git bisect is a powerful automated tool for searching deep into a project's history. Instead of searching for relevant commit messages (git log) or patches (git log -S), bisect actually allows you to run a functional test on each revision until the first bad commit is identified. (Okay, it doesn't test every revision, it performs a binary search, which results in at most log2(N) tests. This allows a relatively large history to be searched quickly.)

The test can be done interactively, with the human performing each check, or mechanically if you can supply a testing script. Randy Fay has done a nice screencast on the interactive method; this post will instead focus on mechanizing the process.

After having seen DrupliBacon and DrupliCake (there are other great adaptations of the Druplicon as well!), I decided I wanted to get some creative juices flowing this weekend. I present, DrupliGolf!

Drupligolf is the result of a round of golf, an addiction to Drupal, and a love for the best OSS mascot in existence. (The latter reason will definitely strike a chord with anybody who's shared a drink with the Druplicon in #drupal... and actually drank).

Happy Autumn everyone! Several days ago I got a question from one of drupal users about „How to output drupal taxonomy terms separated by vocabulary”. By default, Drupal outputs all terms despite of their vocabulary in one list, which isn’t great at all. On the output we want to get something like this:

Now I will explain you how to achieve this.Read on →

Continuing from Form API Changes for Drupal 7, Part 1: $form_state changes.

One of the many pleasant improvements to the Drupal Form API is that AJAX Forms are now really easy. Really easy. We used to call them AHAH forms, and the concept was the same, but they were so complicated that few people attempted them. In D7 we even changed the name to distance ourselves from "AHAH" :-)

In Drupal 6 you had to make a menu entry in hook_menu() that pointed to an AJAX callback handler that was complete black magic. (See a sanitized example.) People did this part differently, and it was hard to figure out the right way. (If you're doing D6 AHAH, the gory details and resources are here.)

In Drupal 7 there is none of that. But we still have to start with the basics so that you'll understand what's going on:

OK, so there were some things in Your Theme to My Module that weren’t perfect. For example, “power ballade” isn’t really an accepted term in the English language. (Yet.) Q: What to do about it? A: Submit a patch!

I have been using Drupal Lightbox2 module (http://drupal.org/project/lightbox2) for more than 2 years. BTW, it looks too buggy now a day when combine with other new modules, e.g. jquery_update, jquery_ui, img_assist, and so on. Its time for me to search for another replacement solution.

There is a complete comparison between different Lightbox-type modules in http://drupal.org/node/266126. Typically base on the usage statistics Thinkbox (http://drupal.org/project/thickbox) should be a good Lightbox2 replacement, but as its project page mentioned Colorbox (http://drupal.org/project/colorbox) would be a recommended upgrade path in Drupal 7.x. So I give a try with it.

WonderWhy RFP/RFQ Module Modifcation/Creation Employment type:  Contract Telecommute:  Allowed

This is a personal* (for now) vs. Business engagement.

Looking for a quote (RFP/RFQ) to have either an existing module(s) modified or a new module created to work in conjunction with the Drupal for Facebook Module.

A site with Drupal installed will be provided. A mutual NDA required.

Nature/Requirements of the Module:

Part 1

• Essentially an individual ToDo list
• List is divided into two parts: Already Done and To Do.
• An existing (Master) database for this list allows the user to select (check box/radio button) from a "Master" list items that they have already done and those that they would like to do - end result is a Have Done and a To Do list
  --- Can mark each list item as Public or Private and comment/photo on each list item
  --- Can rank order each item in each list (or at a minimum in the To Do list)
  --- Can publish individual item to Facebook
  --- Can update/add individual items with new comments/photos/entries
  --- Completion of a To Do item moves it to the Already Done list
• Master list is categorized and searchable by keyword
  --- Search results allow user to select items for inclusion into their Already done or To Do lists
  --- Search results are sorted and displayed by Category

Part 2

• List comparison
  --- Can compare Public To Do list with "friends"
  --- Display comparison
• List item "Tag Cloud"

Part 3

• Group Membership
  --- Users can join Groups that are associated with list items
  --- A group may have 1 or more list item associated with it

Please let me know how you would do it and how much it would cost.
Please include any modifications to the requirements and include per Part costs if needed. (e.g. Total = $X; Part 1 = $X; etc.)

Module will be contributed back to the community upon mutual agreement.

*personal - I'm examining feasibility and want to prototype before pursuing

I've recently returned from an amazing time at Drupalcon Copenhagen, and wanted to highlight some of my favorite sessions, events, and departing thoughts (this also serves as preparation for the impossible task of summarizing such an epic and comprehensive conference in 15 minutes for this week's Portland Drupal group). While I can't cover them all, the complete list of videos from Drupalcon Copenhagen can be found here.
