Building communities is an artsy science that is a strategic initiative for organizations of all kinds from nonprofit to for-profit. In this webinar, we will remove the mystery of building thriving online communities. We will look at community building best practices from leading community managers such as Jono Bacon of Ubuntu, and will understand how to use these pro-tips to grow and nurture global communities through a case study on Drupal.

Why Should You Attend This?

o To learn how the Drupal community grows and is nurtured
o To learn about the community management best practices

Drupal 8 will ship with a fancy new template engine (Twig) and a simpler theme layer. In this webinar, our speaker will show you some goodies from Twig and give you a walkthrough on how to get started with it.

He will also talk about the major problems that people were facing in working with Drupal 7 and what the community has done to make it better. This webinar will show - in both practical examples and on a broader scale - why Drupal 8 will make peace between backenders and frontenders.

For startups thinking of building their site (or prototype) with Drupal and small businesses, I'd like to announce a six-week online course, which would be ideal for someone trying to do it on their own. You can learn to build your site over the length of the course.

Mastering Drupal
A unique, live, online, six-week interactive course designed to help you leap over the learning curve and learn to build complex websites using Drupal. Classes begin Wednesday, May 28th, 2014.

We are apart of the the Applied Technology in Business (ATiB) program here at Oakland University in Rochester Michigan. Our assignment is to complete a case study on a business or non-profit that has implemented a Drupal site within the last year or so. We have some questions we need to ask the developers in order to complete this case study. The end goal is to submit the project to drupal.org. If you are interested in helping us out please contact Jessica at jhlaroqu@oakland.edu.

Drupal 6 tends to set an anonymous cookie by default. I recently did a quick check of UK sites and found many which are indeed setting cookies but don't have one of the available compliance modules installed. From my understanding of the law, the standard D6 anonymous cookie may be exempt if it could be proven that:

• it is required for proper use of the site (probably not the case) and

• isn't used in a way that would identify the user on returning to the site such that displayed contained would be customised for them in some way.

All,

I noticed that quite a few people in the Drupal Easy Career Starter Program could not get drush to work in their git bash windows.

This is because the software was not installed with the correct option! When you install drush using the Drush 5.7 Windows Installer, the attached screen will appear.

If you notice, there are three boxes that are "X" out. The second box / line is titled "Register Environmental Variables". You should un "X" this box. When you click on this box, you will receive a drop down menu. Choose "Will be installed on local hard drive".

All,

Sorry about the multiple posting. The first two times I submitted the article, the system told me that my article was rejected as spam because I did not get the letters right.

So I entered entered it again, and received the same error message. So I submitted it again and use the verbal version and it was finally accepted. Well, come to find out - even though Drupal Groups told me the first two were rejected as spam, the articles were actually accepted.

This is probably a bug. It should not tell me that it was rejected if the article was accepted.

To all of the DCSP students and others,

I ran across the article Virtual Drupal Co-Learning Group in the bottom right hand corner of this page under "Hot Content this Week".

I though it was important enough for all of us newbies that I would bring it to everyone's attention. The first meeting is Monday, October 22, 2012 at 6:30PM PST (9:30 PM our time). If you click on the above links, there are links for you to sign up.
