At this months Florida Drupal meetings a lot of questions came up about how we create websites. Now these questions weren't really about the technical aspects of creating the site, they were more about the planning and the high level steps we take.

Our next meet-up will be on Saturday, August 16th, 2008 from 1 to 5 PM at MindComent's offices (directions) in Altamonte Springs, Florida (Orlando area). This will be a 2-topic meeting with Mike Anello covering panels and Andrew Riley covering Taxonomy w/ Pathauto.

At the last Florida Drupal meeting one of the attendees (sorry, I'm horrible with names) asked why Drupal was so difficult to upgrade.  At first we were a bit confused since we thought Drupal was easy to upgrade but we later found out that the user was storing his modules in /modules and themes in /themes so every time he wiped out his Drupal installation he had to re-install all of the files for his modules/themes.  While it sounds like this is uncommon, I can assure you, it's quite common for new (and some experienced) users to make this mistake.

Join me at MindComet's Headquarters in Altamonte Springs for the Florida Drupal Group's monthly meetup on Saturday, May 17, 2008 from 1 to 3 PM.
