99-part Drupal learning series completed!
Johan Falk 08/31/2012 - 18:45
This week I posted the last episode of the epic learning series "Four weeks of Drupal". It contains 99 parts, from "What is Drupal?" to "Providing new entity properites" and can be found over at the NodeOne learning library. This will be my final Drupal learning series, and it feels good to end with (IMHO) best and most comprehensive of the learning series I've created.
NodeStream

Did you know that NodeStream changed from its initial intention to be an online magazine publishing distribution? This is something we at NodeOne have worked on for a while and internally we actually use NodeStream as a base for all our client projects. We think NodeStream is mature enough to become a base for more peoples project and we plan to support you with it.
Publish button - small module to easier workflow

Yesterday I did some work to match a clients need - they did not want to use the standard checkbox to mark the node as published, they wanted a button instead, a publish button.
Features Pipexplosion - a great addition
Mikke Schirén 05/04/2012 - 14:10
On NodeOne we use Features a lot. Mostly for exporting configuration, and we have some problems with that. Some of the stuff that you want to do, is not in Features, sometimes we need to solve it in another way - mostly with code in the installation profile, but some other issues just keep hanging lose.
Building installation profiles on NodeStream just got a bit easier!

We decided to move our make file with our required modules the NS Core module in order to make it easier to build on top of NodeStream.

If you have an itch to scratch, it sometimes become a module. For a client we had to make a site with the node fields stored i Mongodb. With that scenario, we had an itch.
Sublime Text 2 and Codesniffer (with Drupal) on Mac OsX Lion.

You should work with coding standards in mind, it is a very good thing when you share you things with other developers. And there tools out there to help you with the standards, for me that is the Drupal Coding Standards.
Caching failed with panels in legacy mode
Mikke Schirén 02/02/2012 - 08:42
Did an deploy on one of the sites that we are working with, we did not get any errors on our staging server, but when we put it out on the production server we really had a big problem with caching. Suddenly cache would choke, display white screens of sadness, just caching part of the page, etc.
Caching with Varnish, Drupal 7 and Cache Actions
Fabian Sörqvist 01/31/2012 - 22:35
Drupal 7 can be used with Varnish and other reverse proxy servers if configured correctly. This blog post highlights how you can control your cache with Drupal, the Varnish module and the Cache Actions module.
Whatever you want from git in your make
admin 01/30/2012 - 18:15
Make-files are really powerful to use when your work in developing with Drupal with profiles. In the make-file you can download specific versions of modules, and patch them if you need, to easily set up a site. Without the need of having the modules in your own repo. And you could also download modules from git repos, on drupal.org or elsewhere, and that’s one of the big advantages.
The disappearing public file path setting
admin 01/27/2012 - 09:14
Some problems that you stumble upon when building Drupl sites could be unique for that project, maybe some special mix with the modules that create errors that you do not get in another mix, this could be one of unique problems.

Stuck in the issue queue? Help out!

I recently wanted to get a full project up on drupal.org, so I created a sandbox project and made an application to get it up. Somewhere in the way I lost the Drupal spirit and started to nag about how much time the process took.

This blogpost is a celebration of the awesome aggregation functionality in Views 3. And that I finally understood how to use them.
Rules Bonus Pack: Views
Johan Falk 12/02/2011 - 21:41
Rules and Views are powerful modules in themselves. Let them work together, and you can do really cool stuff.
