Fields in registration form

Submitted by Hagen Graf on 2. September 2010 - 10:47

Since a few months I try to have a closer look at Drupal 7. After the release of Alpha 6 I decided to start a clients project based on Drupal 7. Two weeks ago we discovered a more or less strange problem.

In Drupal 7, as far as I knew, the profiles module will disappear or integrated in the new field api. 

So I thought it would be a good idea to create the user fields as "fields" not as "profile fields". That worked perfect. It was possible to see the fields in the user edit dialog and in the user profile. It was also possible to access the fields via the views module.

But ... what is with the registration dialog? Read more

Due to fast globalization and the possibility to get to every place in the world in less time, people want to have authentic and individualized experiences while spending their spare time. The preservation and promotion of their landscape and culture for developing sustainable touristic structures will be important for European regions and its embedded local areas. That can also be a chance for supporting the diversification of regional economies.

European institutions from France, Italy, Wales, Turkey and Greece are partners in that two years project. They all have in common that they are situated in rural regions with growing tourism.

Talking about wine in Cassagnes

Cassagnes

Most of the time, I really like what I do but sometimes, I feel a bit privileged, when I go to  work, such as today. I started early in the morning to meet Cecile from Domaine Revelh. The  one hour drive from Fitou to Cassagnes, where she lives, really impressed me. It's just a gorgeous landscape, with thousands fragrances and fantastic views.

Few weeks ago, Cecile made a very special degustation of her wines and immediately I tried to convince her to prepare a how-to course for doing2learn. And today was the day, where we discussed a possible structure of a course about wine.Read more

Book Structure

Submitted by Hagen Graf on 3. August 2010 - 16:44

This is the structure for the three books (Joomla! 1.6, Drupal 7 and Wordpress 3).

The structure is primarily about the things that you can map with each of the three systems. The special features will come up while writing :-) This is the current state of the structure:Read more


All about houses

Submitted by Christine Graf on 3. August 2010 - 16:01

As you probably might know, I love old houses. I love to unearth the little secrets hidden in a house, explore how it was built, the materials used and of course, I love to restore it. It was obvious to create a European project out of this love and so I did. I wrote down the idea and searched for partners in Europe who might be interested in doing that project. We are a great team with very interesting people: an expert who is responsible for the plaster restoration of the Alhambra in Granada, a director of the biggest school complex in Ankara, someone who is specialized in laser scanning buildings (and boats) for restoration projects, vocational educational providers, a university which aims to educate managers in cultural heritage.Read more

How do websites look like when they were created with Joomla?

This is not so easy to answer, as most Websites are based on the Joomla! software, but the design of the website is created by an agency and then "transformed" into a Joomla! template. Therefore, the pure exterior of a Website can deceive. Nevertheless, here some screenshots to give you an appetite.

Users, roles and permissions

Submitted by Hagen Graf on 28. July 2010 - 11:28

As in real life, for a content management system, it is not as easy to decide who can do what.

User account

To create, modify and delete content in a content management system, you need a user account. This account contains at least a username and a password. Both are necessary for the system to remember who is the author or creator of that content. Often the e-mail address is queried to send an activation link to that e-mail address. If the potential user receives that e-mail and is able to answer or click on the activation link, most systems assume that this user is a "human being" and not a spam program.Read more
