"In learning you will teach, and in teaching you will learn." Words spoken by (or, at least, attributed to) the great Phil Collins (side story: my first conversation with anyone at InterWorks was with Aaron Confer discussing Genesis and Phil Collins). During my last training at...
Let’s extend the flexibility of the Omega theme. With only a few clicks, you can add and remove regions from specific pages throughout your site. Think of it as creating custom theme tpl.php files without writing any code. Using the Delta module (http://drupal.org/project/delta) along with the...
Scott and I were recently invited to Oklahoma State University to provide Drupal training for their web admins. Drupal has been on the main campus for a couple of months now and is creeping its way onto the extension campuses. Web admins from each campus...
There are several new Drupal theme toolboxes available that now allow easy-to-setup responsive and adaptive layouts. As of this publishing, Omega allows the most power for a newcomer to Drupal and theming without adding additional front-end styling that comes with a contributed theme or template. The...
I came across this article by John Locke recently. I realize that it is over a year old and quite a bit has happened with Drupal in that time, but instead of harping on all of the bad things about Drupal, I thought we could...
The Webforms module comes with a plethora of options out of the box. So many in fact I think some of the most useful settings can be easily overlooked. Today I'm going to show you how to turn a webform into a block so you...
Right out of the box, Drupal 7, allows for a powerful and complete system for creating content types, forms, and content management interfaces. With a few quick steps, you can create highly detailed forms for a content-rich website. However, the more information we want to...

I’ll be the first to admit that I’m not an expert at directory services. Through my job’s history I’ve had logins to both Microsoft Active Directory and Novell Directory Services but that’s about the extent of my interaction. That being said, I can certainly see the...
It’s pretty common for a client to require an internal approval process for updates and new content creation on their website. Often times, the person that’s changing/updating content is an administrative assistant, but for quality assurance reasons a manager or supervisor needs to give the...
Views are a massive part of Drupal and you can't experience the power of Drupal without the Views module. To get views up and running you need to install a couple of modules which can be found at the links below. You also need to...
There are several reasons to overwrite an SQL query generated by a view whether it's to improve performance or join to tables not available to the view. After setting up the view, create a module with a function using hook_views_pre_execute. function [module name]_views_pre_execute(&$view) { if($view->name=="[view name]")...
(Note: In this post I use the terms private and protected interchangeably.) There are times you may want to have your protected Tweets available on your site. Perhaps protected Tweets are available to your members but not necessarily the world at large. Non-private accounts are easy...
The title of this post should be “Adding Social Media Sharing to Your Content” as the service we’re going to look at is not only for Drupal, but Blogger, WordPress, Tumblr, Joomla, TypePad, Posterous, Flash, the iOS or Android SDKs, an email newsletter or just...
This is the first episode of several to come over the following weeks. I thought this would be a good chance to break that barrier of entry for many of you wanting to get your hands dirty with Drupal. In this episode we setup a...
BEWARE: INCREDIBLY SIMPLE These steps work for: Drupal 6 Drupal 7 The Need We had a client request come in that required for us to add a new tab to the user profile for a new page. The Problem How in the world of Drupal are you supposed to add a tab?...
Drupal is a great tool, with its customizable templates. However, there are some things you just can’t seem to do with those .tpl.php files - and one of them seems to be rendering out an AJAX pager. Background For our new blog layout, we wanted to have...
