Webform is a great module to build simple to complex forms for users to fill out, but it has no built-in way to trigger events for Rules. Unfortunately the maintainer is not going to add this kind of functionality anytime in the near future. Drupal wouldn't be Drupal if you couldn't get around this issue by writing a small module. The following code triggers an event upon sending the webform, which can be used by Rules. This is useful if you would like to send an email or display a message when the webform is submitted or use any other kind of available action in the system.
The current user as well as the webform node and the form data are delivered as a parameter to the executed rule. Contents of webform_rules.module: <? Contents of webform_rules.rules.inc: <? After installing the module you will see a new entry in the list of available events when creating a new rule and you'll be able to use the webform data.

I have been using Drupal Lightbox2 module ( for more than 2 years. BTW, it looks too buggy now a day when combine with other new modules, e.g. jquery_update, jquery_ui, img_assist, and so on. Its time for me to search for another replacement solution. There is a complete comparison between different Lightbox-type modules in Typically base on the usage statistics Thinkbox ( should be a good Lightbox2 replacement, but as its project page mentioned Colorbox ( would be a recommended upgrade path in Drupal 7.x. So I give a try with it. Soon I found that something missing: I use Image Assist module ( all among my blog and client's project, but Colorbox don't support it as that of Lightbox2.
It shouldn't be too difficult in implementation as example are all around. How to setup with this patch?

Building your own platform on top of Drupal for managing many sites. (Drupal folks I would love to hear how this is similar or different than your workflow. Please leave a comment). Using Drupal's multi-site features, installation profiles and Drush, features and context modules, as well as a version control repository like Subversion, you can build your own fine-tuned platform to deploy and host multiple sites with similar features while still retaining the ability to customize each particular site as needed.
Drupal has core and modules updates that cover bug fixes, security and new functionality. Additionally, site owners and developers will want to add new functionality from over time. Why? The one and only server approach Here we have a single server hosting a single Drupal site. One development and one production server So lets rectify this somewhat by having the site admin make a local copy of the site on his/her computer.

Lately I’ve been asked in several different ways what essentially boils down to one question: “Why Drupal?” The subtext of the question is: “Why not some other system such as [insert your favorite CMS here]?” Allow me to explain… Background If you are familiar with the history of my site, you’ll know that once upon a time it ran on Textpattern, a designer friendly content management system that sports a templating system akin to the syntax of XHTML. Again, depending on how long you’ve known me, you might also recall that last year I built a proof of concept module for the ExpressionEngine CMS to consume the Fellowship One API. Like many designers, I was impressed with the EE 2.0 admin interface demo’d at the SXSW conference a few years ago. Ironically, after presenting my EE module talk at the Dynamic Church Conference in 2009, the first responses were basically “What about Drupal?” At the time, I knew next to nothing about Drupal, but this spurred my curiosity.
Deep Dive Drupal Scope. Easy Embedding of HTML5 Video on a Drupal Site | Open Source Catholic. For the past year, I've watched the HTML5 <video> element debate (mostly over video formats/containers) with a great interest—I abhor having to use Adobe Flash on my sites to embed video, especially since that means many videos don't work on my Linux workstation (which doesn't have Flash), or on my iPhone/iPad. The HTML5 <video> element (and similarly, the less-supported <audio> element) promises to take away the stress of having to have flash players, FLV-encoded video, etc. just to show a viewer a non-static piece of content.
In its simplest form, you can add the following code to embed a video on your page: On my Drupal sites, I've been wanting to be able to simply grab an m4v video exported from iMovie, QuickTime, or straight from my camera, attach it to a post via a filefield, and have it display. In the old days, I would use SWFTools to embed the video using Flash. Two caveats: FireFox = no-go. Getting this working in FireFox <? Add imagecache option to link to a preset.

The Semantic Views module for Drupal 6 allows you to easily insert HTML markup for your Views rows and fields. This is a new module by bangpound and I think this is really going to change how we think about theming Views because for the first time it puts clean semantic Views output in the hands of site builders and other end users, without having to get their hands dirty in the templates.
Semantic markup is intrinsic to good accessibility, SEO, if not the development of the web as whole. It can also make theming a lot easier—we no longer need to litter our stylehsheets with all those extra classes. I can see this module becoming a big part of our theme development, both for client and commercial themes, where we can provide a Views export module. Usage is quite strait forward. 1. Simply select the Views Style as Semantic Views : Unformatted and set the Row style element, such as a div. 2. Heres a quick and dirty vid showing how to use the Semantic Views module.

Sacha chua :: I’m wrapping up a Drupal 6 project which was funded by one of IBM’s corporate citizenship grants. The Snake Hill folks we’ve been working with will continue working with the client until they’re ready to launch. For my part, I’ve been in user acceptance testing and development mode for almost a month, rolling out new features, fixing bugs, and getting feedback.
The project manager has shuffled some hours around and made sure that I’ve got some “support” hours for follow-up questions after we turn the project over. What worked well Hey, I can do this stuff after all! Understanding a project deeply: I was on the first phase of this project as well, and the experience really helped. I’ll be turning the project over to the other development company, and the client’s concerned about whether they’ll be able to pick things up and run with it. Externally-accessible issue tracking: In the previous phase of this project, issue tracking consisted of e-mailing spreadsheets around.
