Meeting notes: July 20, 2012

Topics covered: image gallery show-and-tell by Joanie Chembars & Brian Danin; Staging Drupal on gatech.edu by Adam Arrowood.

I. Image gallery Show-and-Tell

• Joanie Chembars - Architecture (http://id.gatech.edu/gallery, leverages Drupal)
  • clones image submitted by student as a submission to be approved by admins/professors
  • Uses Views with Exposed Filters
• Brian Danin - Comm & Marketing (http://gatech.edu/photos, leverages Flickr)
  • Flickr field added to pages (so flickr controls permissions for uploading by Comm team)
  • Also uses media and lightbox modules (can't use in D7 because it auto creates ALL sets in Drupal, not just chosen ones)
  • Backup locally, but share via already-created software (Flickr & its API)
  • There are legal release forms for photos/videos on http://gatech.edu/comm/toolbox/index.html

II. Staging Drupal for fun and profit on www.gatech.edu
