Monday was the first day of our Drupal Course, organised by Studio XX and given by myself. The first class is always a big question mark, since there are always surprises. This time, there was the uncertainty about the level of knowledge on Drupal by the participants, the language (English or French), the expectations. It is a question mark because it takes the first course to see the speed of learning of the participants and the time it takes for solving technical problems. This way, you know how to program the next sessions.

So, just a couple of details:

• the course is having this fancy nameDynamic Website Conception with Drupal 6, and is taking place at Studio XX lab.

I am changing the comment settings on the website. I decided to add fields (such as name & e-mail), and remove the subject. So, if you want to do so, you need to go to Administer, and then - Content Type. Then for each content type you need to change the comment settings.

It is maybe better to display a comment form under the article, to motivate people to comment, but at the same time, it is too big and ugly, takes enormous place, and also is asking too many questions. However, I am leaving it for now to see what people think about it. What annoys me is that it is always written Anonymous in the name field. If it would be me, it would probably encourage me to leave the field as it is.

Ah, and the comment notifications is now fixed (Administer -> Site config -> Actions -> Create and action = send e-mail...). Also, since there is a captcha, I let the comments publish automatically (Admin -> User management -> Persmissions). Cool! Not very obvious for the first time, but will work out better for the next.

Enough fooling around for tonight...
