Administration

This year's SANDCamp site started with the great contribution LA Drupal made when they released the codebase for their camp site.

It takes a lot of work to put up a good camp website, and they're only really useful for a month or two! It is, honestly, completely out of proportion, and everyone working on it is a volunteer so tasks can take some time to finish.

But, we want to encourage *more* camps. Part of that effort is making the camp websites as easy as possible.

We'll be doing a basic camp orientation to let everyone know where to go and when.

Introduction to Views

We'll cover the basics of Views, what kind of problems the module is great for solving, and what are its limitations. This session will include some live examples and solutions.

If you're not using Views on your site, or aren't sure why you should be, this session is for you!

Also, developers who think you don't need Views, this is the place to get started.

Topics will lead directly into Brenda's Advanced Views session.

Basic themeing guidance included.
