10 new videos on putting the pieces together
Over the last several weeks, we've been releasing a set of videos demonstrating how to take a mockup and build a fully functioning, information-rich web site using nothing but the front end of Drupal. In this chapter, we apply several of the concepts and tools we've covered in previous chapters to hone look and feel, to add a new user and give them the permissions they need and to dig a little deeper into text formats. Enjoy!
- How to adjust CSS in the footer using Firebug for testing
- Adding and troubleshooting our footer CSS changes with CSS Injector
- Finishing up our footer margin changes
- How to add a repeating background image to the footer
- Adding a new user with a new role
- Giving our new user permission to add, edit and delete pages
- How to fix "This field has been disabled because you do not have sufficient permissions to edit it"
- How content and text formats are related, and how to deal with placeholder text
- How to integrate the Media module with a WYSIWYG
- Chapter review and challenges for the "More CSS Updates and Troubleshooting Text Formats" chapter
Upcoming Build a Module.com Drupal Camp Tour
After being sequestered in a small enclosed space for many months recording videos and managing a small startup, I will be emerging to attend several Drupal camps over the next few months, starting with the Pacific Northwest Drupal Summit October 14-16, followed a week later by the Bay Area Drupal Camp (BADCamp) October 21-23. I'll be posting a full schedule of camps where Build a Module.com will have a presence soon.
We're also going to be submitting a FREE FULL-DAY WORKSHOP proposal for BADCamp, in which students will be able to get one-on-one time with skillful mentors as they work through Build a Module.com material at their own pace.
If you're interested in participating, please let us know!

For those of you that didn't make it to the webinar last week because you had better things to do (really?!), or for those of you that attended and had trouble with the audio, there's a recording with pristine audio available for your viewing pleasure. I hope to record some focused videos on distributions in the future, but this is a good place to begin if you need some quick tips.
