Contributed Module Status

This wiki page is created to keep track of vuil's Project application reviews. As a reviewer I hope to get more advice from more experienced reviewers. Please use the comment field to add your advice, corrections, and observations.

As a long-time Drupal developer, consultant, and otherwise ambassador of all things Drupal, I have to say that there are many things that are just simply "not there" when it comes to the essential modules needed to compete in many instances, with say... Wordpress.

Take internet marketing for example - As someone who has all but sworn off Wordpress, I find myself actually thinking of using it for some of my projects, just because all the best plugins for marketing automation, social media integration, etc. are made (and maintained) for Wordpress.

this might not be the right place to ask, but why Drupal and its modules are not on Github? there can be an integration with Github to make all this seamless.

it would be very helpful for fostering development

(if this is not the right group to ask this, please do advice where should I ask. it's hard to find groups in here. discovery part of g.d.o is really bad)

Small local sprints everywhere (well, not everywhere, but anywhere) will be held during the weekend of January 28 and 29 2017. Listed alphabetically by continent, country, locality (state, province, city; where applicable).

I currently have a drupal 6 website that has integration of taleo, pulling in jobs by state, a simple search, job detail pages, and job details via api. I am upgrading the site to drupal 8 due to security issues and am having a difficult time trying to reporpuse the module. I tried upgrading the module to drupal 7 so i could then move it into 8, but it is not working at all in 7.

Over in the webmasters queue I have started a discussion around a PR effort to get contrib module maintainers to add composer.json files to their modules.

Please join in and spread the word.

I am happy to announced that our project re brand http://www.icrossing.com is live now. Should we put a snapshot to drupal.org showcase page?

See this image http://prntscr.com/7idx70 for more understanding.

I want to fetch Views total number of records in page.tpl.php before views.tpl called. Is it possible to fetch that row total before views rendered? I am also using contextual filter for this view. Views have page type display.

I have also used module https://www.drupal.org/project/views_record_count. but this will print total number of records on Views header or footer. (Not outside of views)

I have checked Aquia site here(https://www.acquia.com/customer-success/learning-services/acquia-certifi...) and found there are four types of certification.

Acquia Certified Developer Exam
Acquia Certified Developer-Back End Specialist Exam
Acquia Certified Developer-Front End Specialist Exam
Acquia Certified Drupal Site Builder Exam
But which certification Team Leam/Project Manager should do? Why this four certification? Who should do which certification? Can anyone explain. Do I need to all four certification?

In Drupal7, I have upgraded contributed modules ctools and features and when I did the update I am getting "No pending updates" message. But I was deleted the old module and put back the new one. Any idea?

Thanks

Hundreds of Drupal developers eagerly await the arrival of a stable release of Tokens Module for Drupal 7 with Field support. Everyday users subscribe to this feature request issue thread without any word on the current status from the developers (correct me if I missed it). The developer put up a ChipIn form to which many people contributed and if it was still open for contribution I'm sure that many more people would donate money to the cause. (http://drupal.org/node/691078?page=1)

So we're this close to an alpha for the Media module (for d7). There are only a few outstanding critical alpha-blocking issues that need to be resolved. I'd hoped to have it today, but it looks like it'll probably be Monday.

Next week is the time for you to jump in if you're interested in developing for the project! It's been loads of fun, from the initial discussions and plans over a year ago with arthurf, dopry, drewish, Roger López, myself and others, to fantastic core Drupal 7 integration of stream wrappers by pwolanin and GSOC student jmstacey, to some powerhouse #d7ux magic by mverbaar and Jody Lynn, to the latest overhaul introducing Media fieldable entities (with an eye for core Drupal 8) and WYSIWYG integration by JacobSingh and dipen chaudhary, with some potential upcoming fine-tuning from jQuery guru dmitrig01.

If you're interested, join us in IRC at #drupal-media. After giving the module a spin (you'll need Drupal 7 Alpha 1, Media, Styles, and WYSIWYG + CKEditor, and optionally Media: Flickr and/or Media: YouTube), you should subscribe to the Issue queue. (You can also see recent screenshots at AaronWinborn.com.)

If you haven't looked recently, there's been some huge progress recently for Drupal's Media module. Jacob Singh from Acquia has jumped on board, paving the way for fieldable entities! This allows Media asset objects to be a first class Drupal citizen, alongside Nodes, Users, Taxonomy, and Comments. (Hopefully in core for Drupal 8!) Also, Dipen Chaudhary has been hard at work providing WYSIWYG support!

FYI, Alex UA and I are planning a version 2 of Embedded Media Field, in part to prepare for the transition to the Media module for Drupal 7.

Here's the road map, mostly for my reference:

• (削除) Fixes and improvements to emthumb (削除ここまで) (courtesy of andrewlevine!)
• (削除) Check for duplicate provider files, giving a notice/warning to administrators in that case (削除ここまで)
• (削除) Start branch 2 of development (削除ここまで)
• (削除) Move the Flickr provider to Media: Flickr (削除ここまで)
• (削除) Move the Archive.org provider to Media: Archive (削除ここまで)
• Move the YouTube provider to Media: YouTube
• (削除) Backport the Styles module to d6 (削除ここまで)
• Add emfield Styles (allowing Imagecache for emfield!)
• Gradually move other providers to external locations

Join us at #drupal-dojo in IRC for a DimDim screencast demonstration, discussion, and quick Q&A of the Media, Styles, and Media: YouTube modules. Built to harness the new PHP stream wrappers in core Drupal 7, this powerful file browsing solution will awe and amaze.

I'm happy to announce that Login Security module release 6.x-1.0 is about to born. Currently, there is only one issue open. This issue takes care about string consolidation and english grammar. I'm not an english natural speaker, so probably there will be some words and corrections to be done. I would appreciate any help in this issue.

There is a new feature included for this 1.0 release: ongoing bruteforce attack detection that could easily be expanded for more paranoid settings.. probably in the 2.0 :)

You can check current roadmap status and (I hope) participate in the english correction.

Hi..

Voidberg and I are giving a second chance to the lazyreg module. Currently there's no such functionality in drupal, and it would be great. For now we have in plan allow the creation of a 'temporary account' to test the site features, and give the user chance to keep it, filling the missing account information, or forget it, just login out the site.

Is there something we are missing or we should consider? do you know of something being implemented about this?

Thanks in advance.

Hi, I'm in process of creating stable release of the "login security" module, and would like to inform current users of this module about it to recall their ideas and most used features, and remove (or not) the rest of them.

Don't know how to make a public call about it, and would not like to create a release to make this kind of notice so everyone will have to update their module version, so I've decided to create it here.

If you have any consideration or would like to know about this stable release please go to:

I've created a module to add descriptions to the blocks visibility fieldset in the user edit form. Now it's possible to set a description for each block and show them to the users, when they whant to show or hide blocks in the site. I've included images of the module in action.

It's a very small module not having any database interaction (information is kept in a drupal variable). For now I've only created the 6.x-1.x-dev release, I don't know if anyone is interested in a 5.x version.

The project is http://drupal.org/project/block_descriptions
