Coupon as a Product
There are a couple of coupon modules that I found and tried for Ubercart 2.x. However, I found that they are either too fancy, or hard to understand. Normally, a coupon (as advised by Ubercart) are relying on line items, here I take a different approach.
In this module I treat a coupon as a product node with a negative price. This gives several good things:
- Since a coupon is a node (because products are nodes), you can have a themable page for a coupon, so you can print it out
- Stock can be used to check if the coupon is (un)available
- The coupon is attached directly to the order, so you don't need to mess around with the line items - the sum that goes to Paypal is already discounted (somehow with the line items the order lifecycle was quite obscure to me)
The other coupon modules that I've tried and didn't adopt are:
I'm looking forward to Drupal 7 and Drupal Commerce module, so if anyone is interested to take over the development of this module, you're more than welcome!
Our new Drupal Code of Conduct
As our community grows, it is imperative that we preserve the things that got us here; namely, keeping Drupal a fun, welcoming, challenging, and fair place to play. The new Drupal Code of Conduct (DCOC) states our shared ideals with respect to conduct. Think of this as coding standards for people. It is an expression of our ideals, not a rulebook. It is a way to communicate our existing values to the entire community.
Our friends at Ubuntu have blazed a brilliant trail in this area. They use Drupal as their CMS, and in turn we have embraced their Code of Conduct. This code of conduct is essentially identical to that used by Ubuntu, except that the name of the project has been changed, and the conflict resolution process has been removed since we don't have one.
The DCOC has been under discussion for several months on groups.drupal.org and discussed further at Drupalcon Conpenhagen. Folks who are interested in talking more about the DCOC should do so in the Drupal.org Policies group.
The short version:
- Be considerate
- Be respectful
- When we disagree, we consult others.
- When we are unsure, we ask for help.
- Step down considerately.

Views Flag Refresh
Views Flag Refresh allows site administrators to configure which views are refreshed automatically via AJAX when certain flags are selected. This is useful when you have a view that filters by flagged content and you want the view to be refreshed automatically when content is flagged or unflagged elsewhere on the page.
The Views Flag Refresh module also allows administrators to select widgets that alter the display of the view while it is being refreshed. Some examples are displaying a throbber image or textual message alerting the user a refresh action is being taken. By implementing the API, developers can add additional widgets with ease.
ConfigurationViews Flag Refresh is configured entirely through the Views interface. After installing the module, additional settings will be available to the Use AJAX option in each display's Basic Settings tab.
Related projects- Views: Provides a flexible method for Drupal site designers to control how lists and tables of content are presented.
- Flag: A flexible flagging system that is completely customizable by the administrator.
Views Flag Refresh is developed and maintained by Chris Pliakas.
Betting system
Betting system is a set of modules that can transform your Drupal site into betting shop. It's mainly designed for course betting.
For better extensibility is created with more modules. It also defines own hooks.
The core of the Betting system adds the following:
- allows administrators to define basic parts for betting
- brings two new content types: Abonents and Games. Without abonents it is not possible to create games. Abonents are players (teams) that attend a game (for example Manchester United in the English Premier League, or Roger Federer in tennis).
- users can bet on games, but only if they have points
- each Abonent and Game have to be in a sport (which are defined by the Taxonomy module)
- administrators can set many options (like eventualities) in the Settings of the Betting System
Betting system also contains other smaller modules for functionality extension.
- Betting system relation allows the creation of relationships between games (like a half in a soccer game)
- Betting system flexible eventualities allows administrators to create special kinds of games, that do not have attending of Abonets and administrator can type own eventuality of result.

Antonelli
Antonelli is a fluid width subtheme for Bartik, the default core theme for Drupal 7. By default Bartik is fixed width - Antonelli changes the layout to fluid (percentage based) with fixed width sidebars.
Antonelli does not change any styles in Bartik - it only changes the layout from fixed to fluid.
A fluid with option was proposed during the development of Bartik, however the request for this option came too late in the Drupal 7 cycle. Due to the lateness of the proposal it was decided to place a fluid width subtheme in contrib until Drupal 8 when we can again discuss the inclusion of a fluid width option. The original issue is here: #846542: Bartik fluid width subtheme
The name is in reference to Jean Bartiks work colleague kathleen Antonelli.

Case Study: StyleWorks Premium Photoshop Styles
This past March, I decided it was time to put my skills as a Drupal developer to use and launch a new online business. I knew early on that I wanted this business to be product-based, and after several weeks of playing with different ideas, I settled on selling premium Photoshop layer styles. It was the perfect opportunity to combine my love of photography and Photoshop with my passion for web development and Drupal.
Several months of product development later, StyleWorks was born. The site runs on Drupal 6, and integrates with FastSpring for e-commerce capabilities.
Designing the site: To Zen or not to Zen?After iterating through several hundred designs in Photoshop, I finally had the look I wanted to go with, and it was time to make it come alive in Drupal. But first, a key decision had to be made: Start from scratch, or go with Zen?
