General discussion

When i add the feed url to Google Desktop 2.0 webclips module, it says unrecongnized webclip stream. It says it should work with any RSS/Atom feed. Anyone know anything about why my drupal site wont work with this?

Does anyone know if Drupal's RSS feed will be "webclip" compatible?

Has anybody developed an "Email this post to a friend" button or link for Drupal nodes and/or forums? This is a pretty common feature on many news or blog web sites.

Before I go off and re-invent the wheel, I thought I'd check to see if it has already been done. I searched the contrib repository for any likely instances, but came up empty handed.

Hi all,
I'm in the process of restructuring a Drupal powered site, and I would like to abandon custom made modules used to extend node types and would like to use Flexinode.
I already defined the new content types, and wrote a migration procedure.
Then, I read about CCK and the possibility for CCK to enter into Drupal distribution.
Now that 4.7 is facing, I would like to understand which is the official position and wait for CCK or use Flexinode.
I also have the same problems on two new sites I have to set up.

So this is my first blogg entry ever. I'm kind of proud in myself in a weird way. Sort of like the first time you ride a bike, except you can realize the magnitude of your actions.....whatever.

Connections is a port of the Wordpress theme Connections.

Connections is a two-colum fixed width theme. I used the Kurbrick for Drupal css and .tpl pages as a starting point. (As such, there may be some extraneous code in the css page; some of it I really didn't understand. I'm not a coder myself, more of an end user who likes to dabbel and learn.!)

I'm writing a book about Drupal and the final section of the final chapter pauses to reflect on the great community that makes Drupal so special. Help me write this part of the book by sharing your perspective. Here are some of the points that I've come up with:

     Building a successful online community is a challenge. How will you know when you've succeeded? 
Regular statistics from your server logs aren't going to tell you a thing. There are plenty of sites on 
the internet that get thousands of visits a day but couldn't be considered communites. Likewise, you 
can't measure your community based on how many posts or comments there are on a site. I've visited 
many sites and left comments, never to return and read another article or see if someone has replied 
to my comment. And there we have the first clues as to what makes a successful online community; 
can I participate? Do I want to come back? Am I interested in seeing how others in the community 
react to what I've said or done?
     The vibrant and growing Drupal community is one that spills over the confines of drupal.org. There 
is no doubt that drupal.org plays a central and crucial role in forming and defining the Drupal community, 
but there is so much more; anybody who writes about Drupal becomes part of the community via 
aggreagator sites like Technorati.com; drupal.org subscribes to all feeds on technorati that mention
