No Submissions Yet for Our Views Plugin Challenge!
Nothing Yet!?
So far, we haven't had any submissions for our most recent challenge, which asks for you to submit a views plugin of some kind. This could mean one of a few things:
- You are hard at work on Drupal 8 core development (and you should be!).
- You didn't realize how amazing a free year of DreamHost hosting is for a prize!
- You didn't realize that there's just 2 days left to submit!
Regardless of your reason, we here at The Module Off forgive you...as long as you submit something immediately! :) Don't forget that you can definitely submit work from past projects that you've worked on, just throw it in a git repo and submit!
Why Should You Care?
What value does The Module Off bring to the Drupal community? The purpose of our challenges is to provide educational resources on Drupal development topics. Once this challenge is over, it is our hope that folks might find the uploaded Views plugins useful when they need to produce a similar piece of functionality on a project. When you submit something to one of our challenges, you're not just taking a shot at a prize, you're also helping other community members to learn Drupal module development. So get on it! There's just two days left.
Resources
Here's a few resources you could use to produce a plugin if you want to code one up:
- Using Alternate Data Backends
- Drupalize.me video on building an Access Plugin (Subscription Required).
- The existing Views plugins are great examples
We hope to see some great submissions in the next 2 days!
