Responsive tables in Drupal 8
Posted on vendredi, septembre 28, 2012 by Moshe Weitzman RSS
I'm thrilled to announce that all HTML tables in Drupal 8 will be responsive. This is a huge win for the Drupal 8 Mobile Initiative.. This is especially important in Drupal's admin section, which traditionally featured wide tables listing recently created content, comments, users, terms, etc. I believe we struck a great balance by hiding unimportant columns by default at narrow widths, and letting user expose those columns on demand.

Meet the trainers
Posted on lundi, juillet 23, 2012 by Heather James RSS
In a recent blog post, I introduced some of Acquia's training partners, as a follow up, I wanted to introduce the trainers.
One of the things I do in my job is meet all of the new trainers who join up through our Training Partner program. I interview them initially, and then give them an orientation to the course materials and what to expect in the classroom. As they teach and we get feedback from participants, I improve the materials with the trainer's feedback, and they improve on their in-class delivery. Plus...

Four Tenets of Hosting Drupal
Posted on mardi, juin 12, 2012 by Erik Webb RSS
Most weeks I am consulting with large clients ready to host or tune Drupal. Many of these clients are large Java/Oracle shops, some are non-tech companies just looking to build internal knowledge, and still others love open source and are simply new to PHP/MySQL applications. In any of these cases, they're often familiar (maybe in name alone) with most of the Drupal infrastructure buzzwords - Varnish, Memcached, Redis, APC, XHProf, etc. Plus...
