7:30 - 8:30 Main Presentation Case Study: Come See How TheWeeklyDrop is Made

Learn how using minimal contrib modules and a solid content model allows me to write and manage a weekly newsletter with limited time and effort.

TheWeeklyDrop (http://www.theweeklydrop.com/) is a weekly email newsletter that delivers Drupal news, tutorials, and articles thousands of people every week. It's also the source of the Drupal Newsletter (https://assoc.drupal.org/blog/bradleyfields/drupal-newsletter-jobs-events-news-conversation) and Mediacurrent Dropcast (https://www.mediacurrent.com/tags/dropcast).

Attendees will learn:

• How to quickly get an idea out the door.

• How and why you should use View modes for displaying content.

• How to use view modes with entity references to reuse content across a site and even with external services.

• How to use Feeds to import content from external APIs.

• How to improve the author experience to speed content creation.
