Spring Drupal TrainingThanks for the favorable feedback. I really appreciated the database experience of Mr. A.K.. As part of the training I've included follow-up notes. Remember you can call with questions and the Sandbox site will be supported for 30 days after training.

Read MoreHands-on Labs:

  1. Learned how to install and configure:
    Drupal core program, contributed modules, and themes using sandbox site at do-drops.com
    Included all core administrative functions including site configuration, content management, site building, user management, status updates, and mainenance.
  2. Learned how to Update modules including running update script
  3. Contributed Modules and themes discussed, recommended, installed, and configured on Sandbox Site do-drops.com.
  4. Signup: Installed and configured.
  5. Signup Status: "extends the Signup module's  functionality by allowing users with permission to administer signups on signup-enabled nodes to set the status of a user's signup. This can be used, for example, to mark users as "Paid" or "Completed." By default, the module comes with two default statuses, "Approved" (the default status) and "Wait listed.""
  6. Calendar:  Facilitates the management, productions, and archiving of events including training. Date and Calendar modules and (other required and associated modules) were installed and configured. Date fields were added using CCK to a content type called Events (Training).  Two Contributed Views were enabled showing the events with these displays: monthly, weekly, daily, and annual. A third View was created that shows a page with Upcoming Events as a list.  Functionality was test.
  7. Embedded Media: Installed and configured Embedded Media module and created at least one node containing a 1) video file, 2) audio file, and 3) image file.
