Bike Temple is a University-wide program to promote bicycle use by Temple students, faculty, and staff. The overall goal of the program is to enable more people to travel on a bike and to do so safely, to build a great bike culture at Temple that supports the University’s commitment to sustainability and reputation for innovative, green programs.
This project was an end-to-end effort. I came in and worked with the stakeholders to create a long run vision for the site. Some of the duties included:
- Information Architecture
- Work with student workers to develop a graphical theme
- Implement the graphics on Drupal
- Implement all features
- Setup a LAMP stack.
- Memcache
- Varnish
- APC
- PHP 5.2
- MySQL 5.1
More features to come.
Migrate from SMF Forum to Drupal
Sun, 02/14/2010 - 7:48pm — hunter
Recently I needed to do a migration from the Simple Machines Forum (SMF) to the Drupal Native Forum. I think most people by this point have heard of Drupal, and if you're reading this, chances are you're in a similar situation. If you want to migrate from SMF to Drupal, there is no direct route beyond writing your own Migration software from scratch in PHP. In this project I'm migrating from a Bridged Joomla and SMF site that has roughly 16,000 posts and about 1100 users.

bash backup.sh /full/path/to/drupal/site <optional> archive_prefix <optional> #of days to keep archives for
