Drupal 5.0 developer's guide in CHM format

I was getting tired of going back and forth to the site and printed pages. A CHM is so much easier and I have gotten spoiled. When the handbook produced XML/OPML it was a pain in the butt and took too much time to produce a decent CHM. But now after the update to 5.0 printer friendly seems to work 70% so here ya go.

As usual those that do not want to register to download will have to get the file from someone who is registered or email me.

Drupal Norway launched!

Well... there are no fireworks nor a celebrity party with coctails and hors d'oeuvres. The site just opened. :-)

Drupal Norge is hoping for a very active community of developers, translators, users and providers of Drupal in Norway.

Aggregation Module

Hello Everyone,

I'd like to announce the new aggregation module for XML syndication (currently RSS syndication), you can find it here

http://drupal.org/project/aggregation

I'd really love to get some feedback from our aggregator fans :-)

Here are some of its features :

Liquid Update (I'm Back)

A new version of Liquid had been released and will be available as soon as the Drupal site updates (in less than 5 minutes).

Changes

There are many changes from the first hack. Some of the more important ones are listed here.

Modularization

The main problem with the old module was that any extension had to be made by patching. Therefore, the most important change has been to define a hook point interface and split out all but the base functionality into separate modules. Today liquid consists of four modules:

* Liquid Base - The base system which provides the infrastructure for wiki name-binding and access permissions.
* Liquid Access - Provides five more permission controls and three access levels that can be defined for each node in the wiki.
* Liquid MoveRef - Provides redirects and references to moved wiki pages (similar to those in media wiki)
* Liquid Filter - Provides the Media Wiki Markup Language filter.

The extension interface provided by Liquid Base consists of three parts

* Wiki API - Allows modules to respond to wiki events (insert, move, remove, update, validate).
* Page Handles - Allows modules to provide page handles for specific wiki id's. This makes it possible for other modules to provide special pages and similar functionality

Alternative theme editor uploaded

I have uploaded a new and alternative theme editor. This one manages themes as nodes and thus provides a web interface to theme editing.
