Matt Farina: How Drupal Is Like Enterprise Software

Thu, 05/23/2013 - 15:30
pDrupal is a lot like enterprise software. Before you think this is a bad judgement on Drupal or a slur please hear me out. It's more a description of Drupal based on my experience with it for nearly 8 years and my last couple years dealing with enterprise software. I want to dive into some specific points that may be good, bad, and even make us unhappy with some of the things that make us happy./p pa href=http://engineeredweb.com/blog/2013/drupal-like-enterprise-software/Continue Reading raquo;/a/p

Now your project manager waltzes over to your desk to deliver an updated set of wireframes, and before you even get halfway down the page, you feel a breeze as you notice a person-shaped cloud of dust where your project manager just stood.... a href=/blog/kyle-taylor/fighting-field-labels-display-suite-extras class=more-linkRead more/a/p

erdfisch: Field Group: wrap fields with custom markup

Thu, 05/23/2013 - 09:30
pI belive every sitebuilder already had the need to wrap multiple fields with some markup, for example to group them in a fieldset or simply to wrap them with a div to solve theming issues. The easiest way to acoplish that is to use the a href=drupal.org/project/field_groupfield group module/a, wich gives you a nice and handy ui integrated in the core field_ui. It comes with a common set of often used wrappers, like expandable fieldsets or even horizontal and vertical tabs./p pThe module itself is a great tool for sitebuilders and themers because it is easy to use and exportable with the features module./p pSadly the module is pretty old and it is very complicated to get new features in it, because so many sites already use the module. So everyone lived with the overload of classes field_group appends to its containers and the poor set of available markup. a href=http://drupal.org/user/531118Yannickoo img src=http://blog.erdfisch.de/sites/blog.erdfisch.de/files/urlicon/drupal_org.ico alt= title=favicon class=urlicon urlicon-drupal_org //a from a href=http://loom-berlin.com/Loom img src=http://blog.erdfisch.de/sites/blog.erdfisch.de/files/urlicon/loom-berlin_com.ico alt= title=favicon class=urlicon urlicon-loom-berlin_com //a created a patch, wich allows the user to decide how the wrapper should look like, by simply adding the tag in the ui./p pThis looks somewhat like in the image above!/p pIf you want to take advantage of this new feature, you need to download the latest development snapshot 7.x-1.x, instead of the stable release./p pCredits are going to a href=http://geeks.yannickoo.de/yannickoo img src=http://blog.erdfisch.de/sites/blog.erdfisch.de/files/urlicon/geeks_yannickoo_de.ico alt= title=favicon class=urlicon urlicon-geeks_yannickoo_de //a for this great work!/p div class=field field-type-filefield field-field-blogbild div class=field-labelWeitere Bilder:nbsp;/div div class=field-items div class=field-item odd img class=imagefield imagefield-field_blogbild width=2220 height=904 alt= src=http://blog.erdfisch.de/sites/blog.erdfisch.de/files/Image%20upload%20on%202013-05-21%20at%2021-21-24.png?1369196513 / /div /div /div

Propeople Blog: Working with Drupal Organic Groups

Wed, 05/22/2013 - 16:13
div class=field field-name-body field-type-text-with-summary field-label-hiddendiv class=field-itemsdiv class=field-item even property=content:encoded pI'm sure the sentence 'There is nothing impossible in Drupal' is not something unfamiliar for your ears. This blog post is a proof of this statement. Here we, the a href=http://wearepropeople.comPropeople Drupal Digital Agency/a team, will make an overview of the a href=http://drupal.org/project/og rel=nofollow target=_blankOrganic Groups/a module, another useful and powerful module that is appreciated by many Drupal users and developers./ppFirst of all: OG – what is this all about? I think the best example would be Facebook Groups. Have you heard about a href=https://www.facebook.com/about/groups rel=nofollow target=_blankFacebook Groups/a? I bet you have. In most of the cases Organic Groups are similar. Creating groups – public or private, inviting members, posting content, commenting it. These sets of features are in the core of Facebook groups as well as in Organic Groups./ppBy using Organic Groups we can build an entire community platform similar to a forum, but with more social networking features such as notifications and connection between members. We also have advanced access management via roles and permissions, and the flexibility to create various types of content. On the a href=http://drupal.org/project/og rel=nofollow target=_blankproject page/a we can see a list of websites that use Organic Groups, quite a few big names can be spotted./ppBefore creating an Organic Groups platform from scratch or implement it in an existing website, we have to figure out what do we want to have as main features and if they can be by the OG module pack./ppHere is a list of necessary points and a short description for each of them on how to configure it in Drupal:/pp /ppstrongCreating Groups – the site administrator should be able to create group rooms./strongbr /br /After enabling the OG module we can define each content type, new or existing, as a group or as a group content. On the content type edit page we have a vertical tab called Organic Groups.br /br /img alt= class=media-image height=866 width=760 typeof=foaf:Image src=http://wearepropeople.com/sites/default/files/og-pic1_1.png /br /br /Groups are entities. Every user with the right permissions will be able to create groups. We can define multiple types of groups. If we create Public group and Private group content types we have different content types, so we can set different permissions and access levels./pp /ppstrongAppoint a group owner – the site administrator should be able to appoint an owner of the group who will manage all the group settings, membership and content./strongbr /br /By default, the group owner is the author of the group node. But it is configurable. Every group node has an interface for managing subscribed people.br /br /img alt= class=media-image height=873 width=760 typeof=foaf:Image src=http://wearepropeople.com/sites/default/files/og-pic2_0.png //pp /ppstrongGroup posts or group content - define various types of content and relate it with groups./strongbr /br /Defining group content is similar to defining groups. Organic Groups vertical tab that appears on the edit page of the content type has an option - Group Content where can set the target bundles. In other words we choose which group types to use as group content. Posting content in groups can be restricted via roles and permissions.br /br /img alt= class=media-image height=981 width=760 typeof=foaf:Image src=http://wearepropeople.com/sites/default/files/og-pic3_0.png //pp /ppstrongCommenting in groups – all group members should be able to comment./strongbr /br /As a node itself, groups and group content have the option to enable comments. Commenting in groups can be restricted via roles and permissions. Defining roles and setting permissions will give us the control we need./pp /ppstrongListing group content and group members./strongbr /br /OG modules pack comes with predefined views. We can use them to list group content or group members. Displays are Block and Content Pane so we have what we need. Great!br /br /img alt= class=media-image height=855 width=760 typeof=foaf:Image src=http://wearepropeople.com/sites/default/files/og-pic4_0.png //pp /ppstrongNotifications – send emails when user is subscribing and adding content./strongbr /br /The OG modules pack also comes with a predefined set of rules.
