Where is the Media module at or why I spent DrupalCon in a corner w/ my laptop
Posted on Vrijdag, september 10, 2010 by Jacob Singh RSS
Like many Drupalcons, I spent nearly the entire conference preparing my presentations. This is no fun, but we’ve been so busy trying to get the new gallery feature in Drupal Gardens released that it was the only way. Anyone else have this experience? Meer...

How Drupal improves and evolves, the basics behind the community
Posted on dinsdag, augustus 31, 2010 by Gábor Hojtsy RSS
It is that phase of my life! I'm just turning 30 in a month, working with Drupal for 7 years and just had my third Acquia anniversary a week ago. Time to look back and evaluate how things went, all the good and bad things; even better if the wisdom can be shared with others. This was part of my thinking when I submitted the session titled "Come for the software, stay for the community" for Drupalcon Copenhagen. Meer...
Facet queries? Making custom Solr facets for fun and profit.
Posted on maandag, augustus 30, 2010 by Peter Wolanin RSS
It sounded like a really simple request: "Is it easy to add a search filter for 'My posts'?". In other words, add a search result facet for posts by the current (logged in) user through the Apache Solr Search Integration module APIs? Meer...

Drupal Security Presentation at Drupalcon
Posted on dinsdag, augustus 24, 2010 by Peter Wolanin RSS
Drupalcon has started! I had the pleasure this morning of giving one of the sessions in the first time slot at Drupalcon Copenhagen.
It was treat to present "Drupal Security for Coders and Themers" with Jakub Suchy from Dynamite Heads and one of my colleagues on the Drupal Security Team. One of the goals of the security team is to help educate the Drupal community about secure coding, secure configuration, and best practices for running a Drupal site. Meer...
Drupal 7: Get Real, Get Dirty, and Get It Done
Posted on woensdag, augustus 18, 2010 by Barry Jaspan RSS
Yesterday I participated in the Drupal 7 code sprint with a host of excellent people. We made good progress and also talked about the state of the Drupal 7 release. Apparently Moshe and I came to a very similar conclusion about what needs to be done and both decided to blog about it; in fact I stole the title of this post from him. Meer...
Details about the new Drupal 6 release process
Posted on donderdag, augustus 12, 2010 by Gábor Hojtsy RSS
Ever since Drupal uses major versions for compatibility changes and minor versions for bugfix and security updates (since Drupal 5), it was most often the case that a new minor Drupal release included bugfixes and security fixes packaged into one update. Meer...
Module authors: In SQL, don't assume INCREMENT(1) == 2
Posted on Vrijdag, augustus 6, 2010 by Barry Jaspan RSS
Trivia question: Suppose you execute the MySQL queries
CREATE TABLE t1 ( id INT UNSIGNED NOT NULL AUTO_INCREMENT, n INT NOT NULL, PRIMARY KEY (id))INSERT INTO t1 (n) VALUES (100)INSERT INTO t1 (n) VALUES (200)
What are the values for the id column in your two rows? If you said "1 and 2", you are in good company but you are mistaken. If you want your module to be good enough to run on Drupal.org or Acquia Hosting some day, keep reading.
The correct answer is "they could be anything." On Acquia Hosting, the results are: Meer...
