Drupal is burning my brain, I
Drupal is burning my brain, I can feel the flames. Thanks for sharing this stuff. Drupal documentation isn't the easiest to understand
Calendar Module and Documentation
Good stuff once again guys. I've had a hard time with documentation especially with the Calendar module myself. There are just various ways to go about the same task depending on when someone asked the question, what Drupal version you are using etc. I've been trying to get iCal feed import to work for 2 weeks and I just can't get it to work properly. I really need the iCal events as nodes to use the auto newsletter creation of Simplenews. I'll talk about it with you guy at the meetup. Thanks again for the podcast.
