This tutorial explains how to load "device specific content" depending on the device being used.

The latest add on to our site has been the proximity filter. It's basically a view block on the venue page showing close by venues as can be seen on the image below. 

Field formatters are used to render CCK fields in node views. Drupal provides default formatters. To customize the output of a field and have it apply it to multiple fields of the same type, a custom formatter needs to be created. 

The theme files (located in your theme directory and that have the extension .tpl.php) have access to variables which will come in handy for printing info out. What happens if the info you want is not access in the available variable?

An AJAX field allows the user to type data into a text filed and dynamically display a list of matching options from which the user can choose from. This field is also called autocomplete or autosuggest.

As a Drupal Developer chances are high that you have come across this same problem as me: you need to output a specific block in a certain place with special conditions and Blocks just doesn't give you the flexibility you need.

By default Drupal adds breadcrumbs to the different pages on the site, of course you can remove this option but I think it's a very useful tool to help you navigate around the site.

When wanting to add a url alias to the venue content type I ran into the problem that I was missing a token that I wanted to use.

What we wanted to do was display on each user profile a list of all the events users create. Especially because the url of events are generated randomly and create a url impossible to remember.

What are useful tools for developing code in Drupal? Here's a small list that I always have at arms reach when programming.
