Goal of the session is to explore some case studies for advanced content types to meet the needs of government agencies.
This session will cover recent government case studies for taking content types to a whole new level to allow our clients control over:
Order of content
Moderation of content
Revisioning of content
Bundle Publishing
Using tools such as Rules, Workbench, Node References, Context, and many more!
We'll go over the decision making process and why content types were a better route than nodequeues or simple view filters.

Drupal 8: Most common beginner mistakesIztok Smolic
It's been a "long and winding road" since the 20 mistakes I made with my first Drupal project. Drupal 8 had me learning everything all over again, but this time around, I was prepared... or so I thought.
A checklist for site builders: things to do after you've built out your content types and views and before you show the site to your client or deploy it on production. See the list at http://bit.ly/drupal-checklist.
We got to the point where the old Drupal mantra of creating content first to see it later is not enough to suceed with content editors. Drupal is competing and replacing other CMS and platforms where the lack of flexibility is the problem #1 for content editors. They are expecting full flexibity on how content is created, displayed, approved and published. However this introduce a common problem for web developers and site builders: how can you provide this full flexibility without having to be constantly on the hook for further development or configuration.
Modules like panels and panelizer, projects like Spark and distributions like panopoly and demo framework helped change the panorama in Drupal and the expectations that are set when sites are built.
In this session we will look to a set of common problems and real examples when creating content and layout for pages with demanding editorial teams. We will look and evaluate common options and recipes.
- How can complex content and rich pages be structured ? Free HTML format in different fields? Structured data in complex fields? Use paragraphs or field collection? Different content items in different items/entities? How to glue it all together?
- How can indivual page layout be managed providing flexibility but also control? Rely on templating system and view modes? Use contrib modules like panels and panelizer or display suite? Mix several approaches and modules?
- How can I add any content to any page and choose its display ? How can I have a list of curated widgets ready to use by the content team to deploy anywhere or in any section?
- How can pages and sections be managed before approved and published? Use prewiew systems and inline editors? Use workbench or workflow for layout? Rely on more complex content staging systems? Use separated environments?
These are daily problems that architects and developers face in every project. As a technical architect in Acquia it is uncommon a project where I am involved that does not need to solve one or more of these problems. In this session I will give some real examples and resume options and recipes that can be used to solve those problems today in Drupal 7 and look to Drupal 8 to explain how it can improve some of our possibilities and options and easy the life of one of our most important personas: the content editor.
Drupal is a popular, open source content management system. It powers websites for governments, NGOs, communities, and businesses around the world. Drupal 8, the newest version, has recently been released and there are many exciting new features for end users, site builders, and developers.

My Site is slow - Drupal Camp London 2013hernanibf
Drupal is a powerful and flexible tool to create web applications without building everything from scratch. This ability can drive developers to build complex websites without understanding what is Drupal doing behind the scenes.
The majority of Drupal performance talks mostly focus in aspects like infrastructure changes, caching strategies or comparisons between modules and architectures. Unfortunately when performance problems occur, development teams also follow strategies to replace different aspects of the platform looking only to standard aspects like slow queries without understanding and profiling the real problem.
The majority of times it is fundamental to measure and analyze what is the application is actually doing to understand te real problems. Drupal is a platform used by million of websites worlwide and its performance can in most cases be compared after measured.
In Acquia we do dozens of performance assessments per year, and even in most clients we find the same problems, often we find situations that only can be detected when measured and analized when looking to a profiler report.
In this session, I will explain how to detect performance problems looking to simple data, from logs to profiler data and providing some nice targets that can be analyzed to understand what is causing the uncommon bad performance of a site.
Thinking of upgrading your website to Drupal 8 or using Drupal 8 for a new project? In this webinar, we'll talk about the benefits of Drupal 8 and the killer features that will make you want to upgrade.

Minimalist Theming: How to Build a Lean, Mean Drupal 8 ThemeSuzanne Dergacheva
Back in the Drupal 7 days (aka last year), we came across some pretty large, hard-to-maintain Drupal 7 sites. The theme was often responsible for a lot of the cruft. We saw themes with excess code, too many template files, and not enough documentation.
The Drupal 8 theme layer provides new features like libraries and Twig blocks that can help us to build cleaner, better-organized themes. So now is a good time for themers to re-visit which theming techniques to use to create themes that are smaller, maintainable, and well organized.
Maybe you consider yourself a Drupal site builder or front-end developer. As soon as someone starts talking object-oriented PHP, you run for the hills. This makes the prospect of building a module for Drupal 8 scary. But on many projects, site building and theming can get you 95% of the way there, and you just need a tiny bit of code to get the job done.
In this session, I'll walk through a couple simple examples of code you can add to your project to fill in these types of gaps. We'll cover some really essential concepts and code snippets that will help you understand how to read Drupal 8 code and write that 'glue module' to get the website finished.
A Recipe for Flexible Editing with Drupal, Panels, Kalatheme and PanopolyCarson Black
In this presentation I demoed a way to use a combination of panels, panelizer, ipe, kalatheme bootstrap and some borrowed panopoly magic mixed with a little bit of custom code to acheive some nice content editor interfaces in a flexible, yet controlled, way.

“Drupal: a Content Management Framework”
• What Drupal Is & What It Isn’t
• Advantages & Disadvantages to Using Drupal
• How to Get Started Using Drupal
Documentation of OpenCms will be better than ever with the release of version 9.5.
OpenCms 9.5 documentation has been revised and greatly extended. Moreover, a new approach has been taken in writing the documentation directly inside OpenCms. Being HTML based, it allows the content to be found easily through online search engines for quick reference. It also allows combining the documentation with interactive examples and demos.
In this session, Daniel introduces the new documentation. He focuses on the content of the documentation, and provides an overview about the main areas of improvement. He also explains briefly the technical structure of the documentation, which makes use of OpenCms 9.5 features such as nested containers. Last but not least, he points out opportunities for future collaboration to document OpenCms even better.
Using DRY (Don't Repeat Yourself) Principle in Drupal 8 Site Life CycleVardot
As a Drupal developer, site builder, themer, or tester, you're tasked with building multiple sites. Every time you build a site, you might fall into one of the most common mistakes of repeating yourself and writing code that is hardly maintainable or reusable. In this session we'll talk about how to use Drupal 8's powers to prevent this and speed-up your work.
"Your customer data flows faster each day, which is why collecting, organizing, and doing something meaningful with it is just good business.
But, it can be tough to do.
Stashing data in different places across your organization to come back (hopefully) later is a great way to mismanage or lose it. Squirrels can stash, but enterprises can’t.
You need a customer data platform (CDP). A central command center that securely holds your customer data and lets you organize it according to your goals.
The thing is, what’s best for you? A CDP out-of-the-box? Building a customer data solution yourself? There’s merit in both options, and this webinar is here to help you narrow down what’s best for your business. Acquia, Bounteous, and Appnovation will show you:
How a single source for customer data storage can mitigate risk and optimize customer experience
How central data governance will help your customer data strategy once the almighty Google takes away cookies
The comprehensive CDP build-or-buy checklist + CDP must-haves for your budget
First-party data management that keeps your customers' data safe and your business booming
It’s 10 PM, do you know where your data is?"
Taking Your Multi-Site Management at Scale to the Next LevelAcquia
Creating digital experiences across a portfolio of sites can present a big challenge. It requires thinking about scale in multiple dimensions, from standardizing on a technology toolset and driving adoption of that platform across an organization, to establishing content governance and user experience standards to guide the design and build of many sites. In order to build a foundation for scale, all of these dimensions and more need to be addressed. With a strong foundation, next-level digital strategies such as multi-channel content management and personalization can be incorporated into your multi-site management.
Join digital leaders and experts from Princeton University, FFW, and Acquia, to learn from their experiences tackling multi-site management at scale. Hear about best practices drawn from the large portfolios of sites that higher-ed institutions manage, and discover Acquia’s holistic solution for multi-site management with Acquia Site Factory+, Acquia Site Studio, Widen DAM, and Acquia Personalization.

Removing Uninteresting Bytes in Software FuzzingAftab Hussain
Imagine a world where software fuzzing, the process of mutating bytes in test seeds to uncover hidden and erroneous program behaviors, becomes faster and more effective. A lot depends on the initial seeds, which can significantly dictate the trajectory of a fuzzing campaign, particularly in terms of how long it takes to uncover interesting behaviour in your code. We introduce DIAR, a technique designed to speedup fuzzing campaigns by pinpointing and eliminating those uninteresting bytes in the seeds. Picture this: instead of wasting valuable resources on meaningless mutations in large, bloated seeds, DIAR removes the unnecessary bytes, streamlining the entire process.
In this work, we equipped AFL, a popular fuzzer, with DIAR and examined two critical Linux libraries -- Libxml's xmllint, a tool for parsing xml documents, and Binutil's readelf, an essential debugging and security analysis command-line tool used to display detailed information about ELF (Executable and Linkable Format). Our preliminary results show that AFL+DIAR does not only discover new paths more quickly but also achieves higher coverage overall. This work thus showcases how starting with lean and optimized seeds can lead to faster, more comprehensive fuzzing campaigns -- and DIAR helps you find such seeds.

Epistemic Interaction - tuning interfaces to provide information for AI supportAlan Dix
Paper presented at SYNERGY workshop at AVI 2024, Genoa, Italy. 3rd June 2024
https://alandix.com/academic/papers/synergy2024-epistemic/
As machine learning integrates deeper into human-computer interactions, the concept of epistemic interaction emerges, aiming to refine these interactions to enhance system adaptability. This approach encourages minor, intentional adjustments in user behaviour to enrich the data available for system learning. This paper introduces epistemic interaction within the context of human-system communication, illustrating how deliberate interaction design can improve system understanding and adaptation. Through concrete examples, we demonstrate the potential of epistemic interaction to significantly advance human-computer interaction by leveraging intuitive human communication strategies to inform system design and functionality, offering a novel pathway for enriching user-system engagements.

28. Drupal is different
• CMSs have a bias. They’re often designed
around a certain “unit” of content and that’s
what they’re optimized to create.... For most
web content management tools a unit is a
webpage, even though we’re more likely to
be making dynamic sites that use (and reuse)
content in a variety of configurations.

overall performance.
• The number of fields and references within a
content type will have a significant impact on
performance.

56. Tidy up!
• Delete test content.
• Delete test content types.
• Delete any content types not in use.
• “Retire” old content types (which still have
content on display) by disabling editing
permissions for content editing roles so they
don’t see that content type in their Add
content list.
