Drupal 8 Multilingual Initiative (D8MI) resources

I will update this list regularly to let you know what's going on for the Drupal 8 Multilingual Initiative. This initiative is for making big improvements in multilingual support for Drupal 8 including cleaning up inconsistencies and poor designs in the architecture, making localization process more user-friendly, allowing for non-English source strings, and pulling in relevant functionality from contributed modules such as i18n. Please help out!

Chipin for getting to DrupalCon Denver

I'd love to go to DrupalCon Denver. If I make it I will head up at least one Birds of a Feather (BOF) session. I would also like to hang out in the users-helping-users room and answer questions. For a BOF, I can do:

* creating a multilingual website
* search engine optimization
* features module
* featured content module

or I'm open to suggestions.

Drupal New Zealand

I haven't made it to New Zealand yet but it's at the top of my "want to visit" list. I have friends in NZ and some are doing Drupal. This is great in case I ever want to take a work sabbatical over there which I would definitely consider!

Hiring the Best People in Drupal

Are you looking for new Drupal talent? Hiring the best people from the Drupal development community can be tough if your company does not have any Drupal expertise in house. How do you know the people you interview are any good? What questions can you ask them if you don't know Drupalese? Do you simply trust their references and hope for the best?

Drupal Featured Content Module at Top of drupalmodules.com

I'm a little bit leery about posting this because I will surely jinx something but I am happy that my Drupal Featured Content module is currently number ONE on the drupalmodules.com in terms of reviews. It's currently has a perfect 5 out of 5 score! Woohoo :)

But, again, in writing this, I will probably provoke someone to go check it out and decide they don't like it so much and write a bad review... !!!

I hope not.

Green Drupal Hosting


Full Disclosure: If you click on one of the Green Hosting links below and order something from them, I will get a referral fee...

We all need reliable web hosting! And those of us in the Drupal world long for a web hosting company that at least knows what Drupal is and can help support our sites that use it in an intelligent manner.

Drupal AHAH Form Examples

Here are some Drupal AHAH Form examples using the Drupal 6 Form API and the wonderful AHAH Helper module. It's much easier creating AHAH forms with the AHAH Helper module than without using it.

Use Drupal Views Group By Module to Show Closest Matches by Terms

Someone requested that I add functionality to my Drupal featured content block module to sort by the nodes that are the closest match to the node being viewed based on vocabulary terms. I did this, but then someone asked if I could integrate with views to allow for this same type of sorting. I thought maybe it could be done already, and sure enough, I was able to do it using views and the views group by module.

Make sure you are using a recent version of views (e.g. 6.x-2.8) and have installed & enabled the Views Group By module.
