Tokyo-area Drupalers plan meet-up

Submitted by Drupalace on Wed, 2009-04-01 13:23
  • community
  • event

I certainly can't call this the first Tokyo-area Drupal gathering; people from Japan's small (?) community of Drupal users have no doubt held meetings in the past. But for one incipient group of Drupalers from around the country and around the world, it's the first get-together. Activities and even location are still coalescing; as a first meeting, this should be a pretty informal meet-and-greet.

  • Time: April 4, 2009, 5 pm
  • Details: http://groups.drupal.org/node/17223

Whatever your experience level, whatever your language, if you're in Tokyo this Saturday and have any interest at all in Drupal, drop by!

Build a Community

  • community
  • site design

A key axiom of business holds that marketing has three purposes:

  1. Increase number of ordering customers
  2. Increase frequency of each customer's orders
  3. Increase amount of each customer's orders

With a web site, "orders" may have nothing to do with product sales; the concept may simply equate to interactions with your site (beginning with visits).

Drupal mini tip

As noted in Forum Finds: Node deletion is forever, when you tell Drupal to delete a node it gives you one "Are you sure...?" chance to recapitulate, but that's it. Confirm the deletion, and that node is gone; there's no Trash Can or Undo to get it back.

To prevent mishaps, be careful in giving users permission to delete nodes. Also, make it a rule to unpublish, not delete, nodes when you want to take them off the site. The node will disappear from view just as if it had been deleted, but will remain in the database should you ever want to republish, reedit, or otherwise revisit it.
