Drupal 6.0 beta 3 released

By gábor hojtsy on

Update: Drupal 6.0 Beta 4 is available now!

With another month of active beta testing, our code is growing more stable by the day. Since Drupal 6 beta 2 was released, we have committed over 180 fixes to the Drupal 6.x code, so we are proud to announce the release of the third beta version of Drupal 6.x for your testing. This beta version includes usability improvements and lots of bug fixes for issues which the testers encountered. The first beta announcement provided a comprehensive list of high level improvements made since Drupal 5.x, so in this announcement we'll concentrate on how you can help ensure that Drupal 6 is released as soon as possible and is as rock solid as the previous Drupal releases that you've grown to love!

Major changes made since the release of Drupal 6 beta 2 include several code and interface documentation fixes and improvements, HTML validity fixes, performance improvements and easier to use templating. The core system now also runs without table locks and temporary tables, making Drupal usable in more shared hosting environments, and also improving performance at the same time. Localization support in the installer is now complete, as well as error reporting and requirements management through the installation process. One of the major usability improvements in this beta release is the addition of drag and drop ordering support to the blocks, menus and filter formats administration interface.

facebook

By . - dot on

This is what Drupal needs: A way to get emails when someone does something.

You can't do anything on facebook without all your friends or people in the same group as you knowing about it.

You get dumped and change your relationship status and everyone gets posted an email saying tommy is now single or if they leave the environmental group - tommy doesn't believe in the environment any more.

Ok they do not use these words but you see what i mean.

Makes it all a lot more interesting.

Looking for theme building resources

By giacco on

I'm struggling to get a handle on how to create my own regions in Drupal 6. I've searched high and low and read tutorials here and elsewhere, but somehow cannot find a clear step-by step introduction to how regions and themes are built, in a way that a Drupal newbie with basic XHTML/CSS/PHP skills can understand, and a general explanation on how that theme is managed and changed at the sites other layers. Does anyone have any links or suggestions to these kinds of tutorials? Would buying Pro Drupal Development help?
