Drupal Module Development Session

At Saturday House on April 6, 2008, Gregory Heller and I offered a Drupal introduction session and module development session. More details about the module development session are available at Seattle Drupal Users Group at g.d.o. The test1 module is available below.


Drupal Projects

Recently, two projects I have been working on are using Drupal. Drupal is a content management system which includes plenty of flexibility and extensibility. That means if you want a web site with all the bells and whistles and have it handle your special requirements, Drupal is a great choice. It is easier for web developers to customize than other content management systems. You can have a great web site at a lower cost than building a completely custom web site or application.

Using PHP and mini_sendmail

Some linux distributions do not include sendmail in their base installation. Other folks may not want to run sendmail. Either way, if you want to use PHP's mail() function and you do not have a mail server installed locally, you need to find another way for mail() to sucessfully send email from a PHP script.

mini_sendmail is a good choice for a basic, "I only need to send mail for testing on my development server" type of environment.

  1. Download and compile mini_sendmail.
