What is Bean? Think of a Bean as a method to provide new types (compared to node this would be a content type) which then provides an add content interface to create as many blocks as you require (see screenshot below). The bean content can then be placed around the site just like any other block. Beans were driven by the API first. This means that you can create block types (bean types) all in a plugin class turning off the UI. The entire configuration in code. No worry about feature reverts.

Topics Listeners’ questions What are unwanted users? Discovering abuse Strategies Modules Custom Solutions Clean Up Module of the Week Role Assign https://www.drupal.org/project/roleassign RoleAssign specifically allows site administrators to further delegate the task of managing user's roles while withholding the Administer permissions permission. RoleAssign introduces a new permission called Assign roles. Users with this permission are able to assign selected roles to still other users. Only users with the Administer permissions permission may select which roles are available for assignment through this module. RoleAssign is ideal for smaller sites with a system administrator and one assistant administrator role that should be reasonably restricted in what it allows. For larger sites with multiple levels of administrators or whenever you need finer-grained control over which role can assign which other role, check out Role Delegation. See #961682: Does the role delegation module supersede this module? for a short discussion of the relative merits of the two modules.

As of 7.x-2.1-rc1, it requires Migrate 7.x-2.6-rc2 or later. Besides addressing contemporary needs to migrate to Drupal 7, it has helped serve as a proof-of-concept for incorporating the migration approach into core as an upgrade path (https://groups.drupal.org/imp).

CAPTCHA After module brings solution to the problem of evaluating security challenges (commonly known as CAPTCHAs) without decreasing the usability of your site. It allows human visitors to fill the web form with input data without solving the CAPTCHA challenge. If however malicious software (or user) is to be suspected because the total number of submitted forms (correct or wrong submits), the CAPTCHA will be activated. Typical use case is user login page where you can set that CAPTCHA protection should be shown after 3 unsuccessful login attempts. Then on first 3 attempts guest user will not be challenged with CAPTCHA protection, but on fourth login attempt guest user will also need to solve CAPTCHA challenge in order to login. The administrator of the site has multiple options when it comes to fine tuning of the “suspicious” situation: you can control submit threshold (number of wrong submissions per user), flooding threshold (number of correct submissions per machine IP) and global flooding threshold. CAPTCHA After can also be enabled only for selected CAPTCHA protected forms.

The FileField module lets you upload files from your computer through a CCK field. The FileField Sources module expands on this ability by allowing you to select new or existing files through additional means, including: Re-use files by an auto-complete textfield Attach server-side files uploaded via FTP Transfer files from a remote server (cURL required) Paste a file directly from the clipboard (Drupal 7 only) Select existing files through the IMCE file browser Although FileField Sources provides several built-in sources, it can be extended by any module through an API for creating new sources. Users can toggle between any of the available methods for selecting a file.

Topics Drupal 8 - Full release 2016 Getting involved and getting started Does this change anything in your mind?How to move forward with Drupal 8 Tips on building a volunteer hour tracking website Module of the Week Paragraphs - https://www.drupal.org/project/paragraphs Paragraphs is the new way of content creation! It allows you — Site Builders — to make things cleaner so that you can give more editing power to your end-users. Instead of putting all their content in one WYSIWYG body field including images and videos, end-users can now choose on-the-fly between pre-defined Paragraph Types independent from one another. Paragraph Types can be anything you want from a simple text block or image to a complex and configurable slideshow. Paragraphs module comes with a new "paragraphs" field type that works like Entity Reference's. Simply add a new paragraphs field on any Content Type you want and choose which Paragraph Types should be available to end-users. They can then add as many Paragraph items as you allowed them to and reorder them at will. Paragraphs module does not come with any default Paragraph Types but since they are basic Drupal Entities you can have complete control over what fields they should be composed of and what they should look like through the typical Drupal Manage Fields and Manage Display screens. You can also add custom option fields and do conditional coding in your CSS, JS and preprocess functions so that end-users can have more control over the look and feel of each item. This is way much cleaner and stable than adding inline CSS or classes inside the body field's source.

Drupal 8 Responsive Images Element Queries Drupal Trends General Tech

The Night Before DrupalCon Twas the night before DrupalCon When all through the hotel, Not a developer was coding, not even Crell The Coffee Mugs were placed by the laptops with care, In hopes that our Dries, soon would be there The speakers were nestled all snug in their beds, While visions of Drupal 8 RC danced in their heads and my boss in his t-shirt and I in mine too just sat down to the bar to throw back a brew When out in the hall there arose such a clatter I sprang from my stool to see what was the matter, out to the hall I stumbled and fell, tore up my new DrupalCon t-shirt and and exclaimed “oh hell” When, what to my wondering eyes should appear, but a bright yellow taxi driven by a man with a beard, with a spiky haired passenger wearing glasses and jeans I knew in a moment it must be Dries More rapid than Varnish his contributors they came. and he commented, and messaged and called them by name: Now JJeff! now Quicksketch now Webchick and Nicxvan On MerlinofChaos On Stella On KarenS and Eaton! To finish the beta blockers, YES, finish them all, Now Code away! Code away! Code away all! As I held my last brew and was turning around, into the hotel Dries came with a bound. He was dressed in the typical geek turn CEO garb, but wrinkled and untidy from his trip across the pond. One-strapping the pack of tech on his back he looked like a man that could use a night cap. His eyes how they twinkled! His smile how Merry! His glasses were awesome, kind of like Drew Carey. His code and ideas are legend you know, from a dorm room in Antwerp to a board room so quick, if you think it was luck, you just missed the trick. With 10 Years of DrupalCon and no signs of slowing, we’re expecting Drupal 8 to keep this show going. I see in his face, years of spearheading his vision, from Drupal 1 to 7, it’s been a community mission. A wink of his eye and a twist of his head soon gave me to know I had nothing to dread. He spoke not a word, but went straight to his work, and filled all the coffee cups, then turned with a twerk The ding of the elevator, up to his room he went. To rest his head before his keynote event but I heard him exclaim as he walked out of sight Happy DrupalCon to all and to all a good night.
