Excellent Hands-On Way to Learn
Working through this book is like having a Drupal expert sit down and walk you through everything you need to know to jump into Drupal module development. It's a pleasant read with a really nice balance between information and practical application. I was surprised at how quickly I was creating my first module. There is some excellent information on how the core modules of Drupal work as ...

Site Hacked? Read Cracking Drupal!
Cracking Drupal: A Drop in the Bucket was everything I'd hoped it would be, and more. I know that's a cliche, but when I first learned about Greg Knaddison's book (greggles in Drupal-land), I'd assumed it would be aimed primarily at Drupal contributed module developers. By the time I finished the excellent book about Drupal security, I realized it was an essential read for anyone connected ...

I Wish I Had Gotten This Sooner
If you learn by seeing things done moreso than by reading about them, I recommend Tom's video highly. Depending on your intent for using Drupal, you might want to pair it with one of the several excellent books that have recently become available: * If you want an all-around background in developing Web sites in Drupal, try Using Drupal by Angela Byron, Addison Berry, Nathan Haug, Jeff Eaton, ...

Drupal 5 Views Recipes
I am not a PHP expert and I barely know how to spell CSS. My first attempt at website development began three years ago with the decision to utilize Drupal. After three years of trial and error, the searching of forums, posting questions, hiring four different developers, installation and then un-installation of almost one hundred modules, and the purchasing of several reference books and videos, ...

Excellent Book on Drupal API Coding with PHP
Drupal's online documentation leaves something to be desired. It is so difficult to find detailed and complete, step-by-step, online tutorials of exactly how to customize Drupal via its API using PHP. Because of this, my first Drupal rollout was a little hodgepodge - some CCK work, combined some piecemeal code mined from online, combined with contributed modules to do other things, even [dare I ...

Wow, this is easier than I thought
Drupal version 6 ships with a Drupal JavaScript library (drupal.js) as well as a fairly recent and powerful library that is gaining followers rapidly called jQuery. I have been waiting for this book to come out for months, since I first heard that it was being written. Now that I have had a chance to read it, I must say that it does not fail to please. What I wanted to learn was why Drupal ...

Very good review of Drupal SEO tools
I work for an SEO company in colorado as a php/javascript/drupal developer. I had written the staff training material for drupal, which includes drupal specific training for our optimization department. What I can say about this book is that it pretty much covers exactly what I have in my material with a more comprehensive section on how to use RDF and Calais' webAPI service, which is ...

learn drupal using this great "cookbook"
Drupal for Education and E-Learning Another great book in the drupal revolution! This book is unique in that it is really a "cookbook" for a teacher (of any kind) to setup a new drupal site to use to enhance their classes. The target audience is new or intermediate drupal users. The examples go through creating a very usable class oriented website, but the skills illustrated in the book ...

The book covers exactly what it claims to cover, and does so well
This book is relatively short, coming in at about 240 pages. It is also focused on only one part of using Drupal, which means that you don't have to sift through a lot of information you are not going to use. This is definitely not a basic, "here's how to install and get started easily" sort of text, but more of a precise guide to using Drupal to serve various forms of media files in a way that ...

A planned approach to successful web development
In creating web sites, there will be those who will find their strength in the Theming/User Interface side, and those who are wizards at functionality, creating modules that add yet more capabilities. I would consider this book best for the project manager or small shop developer who has to oversee the entire process while interacting with clients, developers and designers, and wants a thorough ...

Definitely helps you build some site solutions with Drupal
I've just read Drupal 6 Site Builder Solutions by Mark Noble and think it's got a lot of good things going on. This book, like a lot of Drupal books out there, presents some basic methods for installing and setting up a Drupal website but what it does differently is look at every tutorial and example through the lens of a small business. In fact, the whole book is tutorial after tutorial of ...

A+++ Would Buy Again
I wish I had gotten this book back in January when I first started planning a social network I'm working on! As I read the book, I found myself thinking, "Wow, this is perfect! I had no idea adding X was so easy!" I kept reading and quickly realized I was doing that for almost every section. PROS: # Great for teaching the proper way to run a website - not just social networks, but any site ...

Great Drupal Resource
This book is exactly what I have been looking for. Being pretty new to Drupal I had been using the documentation at the Drupal site. It is good for starting off but my company, Savant Creative Group - [...] - needs to develop our own themes. The book is well written, well documented and not too heavy on PHP. It is great for design people who know html and css.

Great book - does what it says
I like this book because it focuses on one topic - how to build a community site with drupal and it does justice to the topic. There is an overview of drupal explaining basic concepts. Then it gets into using different available modules for a community site and how to use them. I had never worked on Drupal before (coming from java world). But I was able to get my site up and running in a week ...

So far, so good.
I've made it through the first four chapters and am very happy with this purchase. The case studies are easy to follow and the examples are based on a foundation of best practices. So far I've just covered the basics, but from what I've skipped ahead and read this book makes subjects that I considered over my head easy to understand. This book is proving to be an excellent addition to my ...
