where is the purchase section for videos?
The high resolution version will be uploaded and available for purchase soon.
how much more content there is for the extra bucks? can you share at least the length of the premium videos?
This particular video has the same content as the YouTube version. The purchased version has the increased resolution of 1024x768.
Excellent video, worth to pay for the high-res version for sure.
First of all, thanks for your very helpful videos...helpful isnt the word more like necessary for me and the high rez is great for following along without squinting and worth every penny. I am viewing your taxonomy video today and went to theme- node settings and found there wasnt a taxonomy node??? Went to taxonomy module report and it was enabled (per your previous instruction) and saw a message next to it (Required by: Forum disabled). I am working on a different theme than your lessons (Marinelli) and have looked in at Drupal.org theme, but didnt see anything that addressed this issue. Any advice or direction in what could be the problem.
Thanks for your kind words. I'm a little bit confused so I think it might help if you can refer to the time in the video where I'm working on the thing that you're not seeing. There are no "taxonomy nodes" in Drupal. There are vocabularies which you can create at /admin/content/taxonomy. Those vocabularies can then contain lists of terms that are associated with nodes.
So taxonomy vocabularies are associated with nodes, but their merely pointers to content on the site. Each vocabulary has it's own settings that determine which content types the vocabulary is associated with. So I can create a vocabulary called "Blog Tags" and then edit the settings of Blog Tags to select the content type of "Blog" for example. In that case when I create new Blog content it will add a field to the submission form that will allow me to enter a term or select a term from a list that will categorize that post.
Hello Rob, thanks for the awesome vids. I'm working on a site and I was wondering if there was any way to remove the category term from the URL that results from adding a keyword to a few posts. So for example: instead of www.example.com/category/vocabulary/term it would be www.example.com/vocabulary/term or just www.example.com/term.
Just wondering if there was an easy way to do that. Thanks again for the vids, they are fantastic.
