Drupal 6

Creating and serving a static archive from a Drupal 6 site

17 Jun 2015

Back in 2012, I was on a team of people who put together a website to commemorate the 100th anniversary of a historic journey to North America undertaken by 'Abdu'l-Bahá, then the head of the Bahá'í Faith. A religious prisoner of the Ottoman empire for almost 40 years, 'Abdu'l-Bahá made the journey to America at almost 70 years of age. The trip made news headlines around the world. If you were alive and following the news at the time, you probably would have heard of it.

Maintaining an in-house Drupal install profile (aka distribution)

24 Feb 2014

A few years back, when Drupal 6 was gearing up for showtime, one of the major working points was making the install profile system easier to navigate for developers. A Drupal install profile, also known as a distribution, allows you to specify an initial setup for Drupal, including both core and contributed modules, and setting up configurations for them.

US Bahá’í Directory

July - August 2010, May 2013

The United States Bahá’í community numbers in the hundreds of thousands of members in almost 10,000 localities around the country, and the national office wanted a website to highlight local Bahá’í communities.

This Site - DNotes LLC

October 1, 2010 / June 8, 2013

I threw this site together because I needed a place to showcase the things I'm doing with Drupal. My portfolio shows a few projects that I've worked on and can share.

Website Incubator

May 2010 - Present

The Local Bahá'í Community Website Incubator is a Drupal installation profile geared toward providing local Baha'i communities with a no-hassle, cookie-cutter website. At present over 40 local community sites run on the platform.

Abdu'l-Bahá in America

2010 - Present

This website commemorates the 1912 visit of 'Abdu'l-Bahá, then head of the Bahá'í Faith, to America. It is a complex site built on Drupal 6 which makes heavy use of taxonomy, views, cck and imagecache.

Navanti Group

Jan 8-9, 2011

Navanti Group had a graphic design for a fairly simple website. They needed brochure pages, file downloads, videos, profiles, news and a twitter feed. It was good to have a project that could be finished in a weekend.

Quick add new ticket form block in OpenAtrium case tracker

9 Dec 2010

One of the things that annoys me about all ticket management systems is the amount of time that it takes to add a new ticket. Click the project; click for a new ticket; wait for the page to load; enter a title; select a priority; assign to a user; select other options; enter a longer description; click "Save"; wait for the page to load; rinse and repeat. That's a lot of overhead just for adding a ticket! I've tried unfuddle, basecamp, jira, and openatrium, all with the same complaint.
