I keep having problems which I think are related to my local environment. I am on Windows 10 Acquia devdesktop and using composer and drupal console. I'd really like to learn how to build sites with Drupal ( in general, i have no tech or coding background) but I cant get things to work properly :-(
When I visit example.com/update.php, I get this error
GEOLOCATION GEOMETRY - DATABASE COMPATIBILITYDatabase version 5.6.48-cll-lve does not meet required spatial data capability.
Requires MySQL >= 5.7.6 or MariaDB >= 10.1.2 or PostgreSQL with PostGIS installed.
GEOLOCATION GEOMETRY DATA - COMPOSER DEPENDENCYLibraries not installed
Use "composer require gasparesganga/php-shapefile" to install required library. See geolocation/modules/geolocation_geometry/modules/geolocation_geometry_data/composer.json for details.
I have a user who wanted to save some configuration options for his site. I had initially created a content type of Options, then created a node for that user so they could edit it, and didn't allow them to delete or create any other nodes of this content type. But it feels like this isn't what content creation was created for!
Am I missing a trick in allowing users to save options, or should I just create a custom form and save it to db?
