Little documentation and few base themes with 8.x branches - what's a front end developer to do? I'll show you what's changing in Drupal theming between D7 and D8 and how to create a custom theme based on the Classy base theme, step by step. We'll go over Twig basics and Twig debugging.
This document discusses theming in Drupal 8. It covers:
- What theming is and how themes override default module outputs
- Creating a theme and selecting a base theme like classy or stable
- Using Twig templates to define HTML and preprocess functions
- Declaring libraries for asset loading and managing dependencies
- Defining breakpoints and configuration options for the admin interface
- Registering new theme hooks and template files
This document provides an overview of new features for theming in Drupal 8, including the transition from PHPTemplate to the Twig templating language. Key points include:
- Drupal 8 uses Twig instead of PHPTemplate for improved security, syntax, and separation of logic from presentation.
- Twig templates, YAML configuration, and fewer hardcoded HTML classes/IDs provide better separation of concerns between backend and frontend.
- The theme layer has been updated, removing processing hooks in favor of template preprocessing and theme suggestions to alter output.
- Core includes starter themes like Bartik and modules to help with responsive design and development.

Drupal theming - a practical approach (European Drupal Days 2015)Eugenio Minardi
This document discusses best practices for Drupal theming. It covers topics like directory layout, basic theme elements, render arrays, hooks, overriding templates and functions, common mistakes, and more. Tools like VirtualBox and Vagrant are recommended for local development. Templates should be used for display only and advanced logic should be moved to preprocess functions. Security risks can arise from directly editing core/module files or using global variables.
Becoming a drupal master builder - Given at Drupal Camp London 2016
I've been building Drupal sites for a number of years and have a broad experience building Drupal sites with various levels of complexity. I often work with other agencies to build Drupal sites or to migrate existing sites and as a result I will often see some very common mistakes and errors that shouldn't be happening. Due to Drupal's popularity I also see Drupal sites in the wild and can clearly see the same mistakes going on there as well.
During this talk I'll show some basic site building tips as well as some more complex and technical strategies that will make your Drupal sites better and more maintainable. Rather than just show you what to do, I'll also be explaining why doing those things are important and how developers and their websites will benefit from them. Although I'll be mainly concentrating on Drupal 7, some of these techniques are also applicable to Drupal 8.
PSD to a Drupal Theme (using a base theme)kuydigital
1) The document discusses converting a Photoshop website template into a Drupal theme using a base theme approach. It outlines downloading and installing the Fusion base theme, creating a subtheme, and mapping the PSD regions to Drupal theme regions.
2) It provides steps for setting up the Drupal installation, enabling the subtheme, preparing the PSD file, and removing the default Drupal content using Views.
3) The goal is to build a fully responsive Drupal theme that implements the design of the PSD template while taking advantage of the extensibility of the base theme and Drupal.
Drupal themes are created by using template files (.tpl.php) and style sheets (.css) that define the presentation layer of a Drupal site. A theme is a collection of these files that control how content is displayed. Template files can overwrite each other based on a hierarchy, with more specific templates taking precedence over more general ones. Style sheets also overwrite each other based on this hierarchy. Themes provide the final presentation definition by overwriting templates and styles from Drupal core and other modules.

Developing a Joomla 3.x Component using RAD FOF- Part 2: Front-end + demo - J...Peter Martin
One of the new feature since Joomla 3.2 is Rapid Application Development (RAD) framework.
A Joomla component is a PHP/MySQL web application that uses Joomla's framework. You can build your components on Joomla's framework and Joomla will take care of the database connection, the design (using templates), access levels, forms (JForms), etc. Using Joomla's framework saves you a lot of work and development time. However, it can be even faster!
Most Joomla components include the same functionality: In the front-end a list of records from the database hyperlinked to pages with details of each record individually. In the back-end the component list records from the database, with a link to a form where you can change the data and save.
Using the Rapid Application Development Framework (also known as FOF (Framework On Framework)) allows you to develop a component with common functionality with far fewer lines of code.
In this presentation, Peter shows how you can use Joomla's RAD to build a simple Joomla component to manage locations and categories and present those on the front-end to visitors on a Google Map.
Contents:
* Programming a simple front-end component using FOF
* Demo with programming, github & local web environment

Your customers are calling (often!) because they can’t find the information on the website. They’re frustrated, mad even. You’ve already poured money and time into designing and building a beautiful site, but you left out one crucial aspect: User Experience (UX) design.
Designing a solution without considering the user experience can be disastrous. That’s why high-performing companies and organizations always ensure that creative design and UX are working in concert, ensuring that your audiences have delightful experiences all around.
During our webinar we’ll discuss:
- the differences and overlaps between Creative and UX
- how both rely on a clearly-defined brand experience
- how to collaborate effectively to find solutions that get results
We’ll talk about how beauty and usability can be best friends. By the end you’ll have some clear next steps to take back to your team and begin designing for user journeys that are both beautiful and usable.
Make Your Data Understandable: Communicating for Action and ImpactForum One
The document discusses how to effectively communicate data through analysis, understanding your audience, determining the desired action, using design principles, and measuring success. It outlines the "Five A's of Data Communication" and provides examples from Florence Nightingale's work in the Crimean War, where she used statistical analysis and visualizations to advocate for improved sanitation in military hospitals. The document encourages understanding audiences through research and provides tips on determining the best approach for data communication based on goals, data characteristics, and delivery method.
Google Grants for Nonprofits provides up to $40,000 per month of free advertising on Google search results to eligible nonprofits. To qualify, organizations must be based in a eligible country and have nonprofit status. The grant dollars can be used to bid on keywords and pay per click advertising. Recipients set up AdWords campaigns by applying for Google for Nonprofits, applying for Google Ad Grants, and creating an AdWords account without credit card information. Campaigns, ad groups, and ads are then developed and optimized to measure success through impressions, click through rates, and goal completions.
The document outlines the key steps for staff and resource planning for a project:
1) Define goals and audiences, both external people the project serves and internal collaborators.
2) Identify key steps or "epic stories" for achieving goals through actionable tasks, focusing on audiences.
3) Take inventory of required skills and any gaps, determining what can be done internally or through hiring.
4) Manage budgets and tools, whether focusing on task management or team collaboration.
5) Balance project scope, budget, and timeline by starting with an ideal scope and reducing to what's realistic.
Michael Rader from digital agency Forum One gave a presentation on staff and resource planning. He began by emphasizing the importance of both ideas and execution. The presentation covered introductions, project management basics including defining goals and audiences, identifying key tasks, managing budgets and timelines, and balancing scope, time and budget. Attendees then worked in groups to workshop their own ideas applying the project management principles.
Content Strategy: Defining and Monitoring SuccessForum One
This document discusses defining and measuring success through setting goals and tracking key metrics. It recommends setting both big picture and smaller incremental goals that are aligned with organizational priorities. Tracking engagement metrics like visitors, time on site, and conversions can help evaluate success compared to simply looking at visitor counts alone. The document also provides tips for using tools like campaign tags and branded hashtags to segment traffic sources and encourage sharing. Finally, it suggests analyzing the data in more depth to identify high value channels and opportunities to optimize campaigns.
A 13-year-old girl needs advice on how to feel accepted by her peers while avoiding uncomfortable situations. A blog post could provide tips on handling these situations without making things awkward. This would support the organizational goal of lowering teen smoking rates and be measured by engagement metrics like page views and newsletter click-throughs. A college student needs help budgeting money responsibly despite financial pressures, while a pub manager struggles to balance the needs of smoking and non-smoking customers to keep everyone comfortable.
Get the right content to the right people at the right time by doing audience research through empathy mapping and point-of-view planning. This involves writing point-of-view statements about the user's needs, insights, or contradictions to understand their perspective and determine how content can address these statements by considering implications, environment, and alternative angles. The effectiveness of the content should then be evaluated.
From Stratosphere to Sea-Level: Grounding Your Analytics Reporting for Each A...Forum One

Drupal & Design / 10 Thing I Hate About YouForum One
If you are using a CMS, you are using it to save time by having it do much of the heavy lifting for you. Drupal is a very powerful and complex CMS and can easily accomplish things that would be much harder within a simpler CMS (e.g., WordPress). However, one drawback to that is the more complex the CMS, the more assumptions it makes about how content is organized and displayed. In this sessions, we will try to illuminate some of the constraints you'll need to work with when designing on Drupal.

Data For Policy Influence: How to Manage, Distribute, and Present Your DataForum One
To make smart policy decisions on important issues – whether global, national or local – leaders and influencers need information, analysis, and insight.
If your organization is in the business of supplying that information, then you already know that Data is an essential ingredient for success. You also know that in this digital age your briefs and reports – the traditional distribution tools for your insights – are competing for attention in an extremely competitive and noisy online marketplace of ideas. Attention is scarce, and gaining attention with 20-page PDFs online is not very easy.
So how can you put your data to better use digitally to extend your influence?
In this presentation, Laura Castillo-Page of the American Association of Medical Colleges (AAMC) and Kurt Voelker of Forum One dig into real-world examples from the AAMC and others about the first steps that organizations like yours can take to better present their data.
IN THIS PRESENTATION YOU WILL LEARN how NGO’s can evolve their use of data to be more digitally native by:
• Presenting data as engaging interactive visualizations
• Distributing data in more accessible formats
• Managing data more effectively on the backend

Artificial Intelligence is providing benefits in many areas of work within the heritage sector, from image analysis, to ideas generation, and new research tools. However, it is more critical than ever for people, with analogue intelligence, to ensure the integrity and ethical use of AI. Including real people can improve the use of AI by identifying potential biases, cross-checking results, refining workflows, and providing contextual relevance to AI-driven results.
News about the impact of AI often paints a rosy picture. In practice, there are many potential pitfalls. This presentation discusses these issues and looks at the role of analogue intelligence and analogue interfaces in providing the best results to our audiences. How do we deal with factually incorrect results? How do we get content generated that better reflects the diversity of our communities? What roles are there for physical, in-person experiences in the digital world?
