Media is a module which has been in development for several years. The goal is to provide a light Digital Asset Management solution for Drupal. This means fields on files, interfaces for browsing and embedding files and the ability to reference media all over the internet. I'll be demoing some of the functionality, showing you how to set it up on your D7 site and discussing the roadmap.
Drupal and SEO are an awesome combination where, with sufficient training, you can be sure to get your message out to a wider audience; increasing revenue or growth in other areas.
Drupal7 is finally here but what about SEO?
What can you do now to deliver maximum SEO quality to your clients or your personal projects?
What still needs ported over to Drupal7?
When are those much needed modules going to hit the contrib space?
What you don't know WILL cost you and your clients! :-)
Pantheon (currently in provate beta) is a wonderful hosted development environment and hosting platform designed and optimized from the ground up for Drupal, and embodies best-practices scalability and optimization practices, combined with an elegant, easy-to-use development interface. I will walk through the system from a developer's perspective, addressing some current challenges with scripts and step-by-step techniques for streamlining your local development workflow with DAMP and Mac OS X.
The Drupal project uses "issue queues" to discuss problems and proposed new features for Drupal core, documentation, and contributed projects. In this presentation, I'll show you the basics of how to report an issue or propose a new feature, how to participate in discussions, the etiquette of reports and responses, and some tips on how to get your proposals accepted.
Presented by Jennifer Hodgdon (jhodgdon), a leader of the D.O. documentation team.
This session will provide an intro Drush, from download and use to rapidly increasing your Drupal site building. We will also talk about Drush Make and maybe how features works with it all.
Drupal7 Site building - Is it all that different in Drupal7? Not really, but it's different enough that you might get lost along the way as you navigate the changes. Join us and take the short path to getting up to speed on the Drupal7 way of doing things!
Very soon, Drupal will bid a fond (ha!) farewell to CVS, and git will step up to the collective plate. In this session, I'll run through what differences you can expect to see on launch day, what changes are further down the road, and talk a bit about how I think git might change Drupal's community workflows right away.
This is not an intro to Git. We hope to schedule a basic Git training early in 2011.
The book module is often seen as the documentation in/for Drupal. But it falls short in a couple of areas:
There is only 1 hierarchy that never really fits all needs
There are no standards in structuring the information inside a post, so 1 post might actually explain more than 1 topic
You can only export individual pages or top level chapters with their children, you can't easily export cherry-picked topics (across chapters) into 1 document
Version management is handled through the forking of the whole documentation
