General discussion

I thought it would behoove me to let the Drupal Community know you have another coding monkey around. I do more with PC apps writing currently with Delphi 7 and occasionally with IWBasic. I started using Drupal 7 yesterday and like what it can do. The type of website I have is one where I'll be selling sub-domains cheap so people can write and upload books or sell their wares or whatever they really want one for, but I'll likely recommend Drupal to them as their designer.

Oh, yeah... I'm a physicist.

This quote is prominent on Drupal.org:-

It’s really the Drupal community and not so much the software that makes the Drupal project what it is. So fostering the Drupal community is actually more important than just managing the code base.
- Dries Buytaert

Yet despite the numbers of people, commitment and its success (?) I haven't found the community. Is it heresy to say that here? It would be ironic if it was!

I've found support on the forums, perhaps more than on other tech forums, but IF Drupal is also for non coders then surely that support is fundamental? The amount of support needed is directly proportional to the level of difficulties encountered via the UI, and the amount of work needed to provide that support is similarly proportional to the clarity of the UI and its integration with the underlying code which it directs.

I've eavesdropped conversations here, between people who seem to me to know, and even they struggle to explain the half a dozen basic Drupal terms. When you know, all becomes clear, until you reach that point you are a massive burden on the Forums. The challenge is to minimise the impact of this truism by providing tools with embedded clarity.

Hello Friends,

Some people use Linux operating System and some people use windows .
Here i want to ask you ,
Which are the latest features that present in Linux but not in windows..
Please share with me ..........

Hello ,
I have created some blocks having arguments, each having mini pager in it. In a while loop I am calling one callback function, which actually calls the blocks depending upon the condition applied.
The problem that I am facing is, when the page is loaded, pager is coming. On clicking the pager, next page appear but there is neither content nor the pagers.
I am using the ajax pager. What I found is though I am passing the arguments through views_get_view, and using the preview() function to render the HTML.

Hey all,

My name is Malik Mack and I am looking to really network with some Drupal Developers in the DC Metro Area. I am trying to really connect with some great developers who know other great people in Drupal-land. So if you know some people who fit this description please direct them to this post. I truly appreciate it.

Best,
Malik Mack

Hello Community

This is merely an introduction to say hello and to express how impressed I am with the level of information on drupal.org, not to mention the wonderful community spirit often lost or forgotten about in todays fast paced world.
