Get the Search Results You Want!

Peter Wolanin 28 June 2010
Type:  Not planned session

The Apache Solr Search Integration module has many configuration options to allow you to customize what gets searched and how different items of content score relative to each other. This session will show you how the configuration options affect your search index and search results.

The Apache Solr Search Integration can give you great results right away, but have you taken the time to look in depth at its configuration options? Do you understand how changing those setting can provide a better search experience for your users and focus attention on the content you think is most important?

This session will explain the basic concepts behind the different configuration sections in the admin interface and then show the effect of different configuration options on what goes into the search index, and how search results are found and ordered.

The Case for Recipes: Open Sourcing Your Process

amye 28 June 2010
Type:  Not planned session

It's like buying a restaurant or celebrity chef cookbook: Even though he's written down all the recipes, and all of the steps are there, you still have to cook. Let's talk about what our recipes look like, outside of development, and how we work with each other to improve both our 'recipes' and 'kitchens'.

You know when you're doing it wrong. When you're staying up all night trying to figure out what your next steps are, what you should have known three weeks ago about this particular project, and when you just don't know who does what. But you're pretty sure that everyone else doesn't have these particular problems, because they're doing so well!

This is probably wrong.

Using Gallery API for slideshows and galleries

Dmitry Kresin 28 June 2010
Type:  Not planned session

How to use Gallery API module and its plugins to build various slide shows and galleries. How to develop Gallery API plugins.

Gallery API - is an API module that was developed to combine all gallery and slideshow modules together. We bring an API that can be used to develop data layer (input method), which gives us slides and presenting layer (output method) that is responsible for displaying the gallery. The main advantage of this system is that you can create Gallery presets (just like Imagecache presets) and use any input method with any output method.

Session plan:
1. A problem of all existing gallery and slideshow modules
2. The proposed solution
3. Gallery API structure and aim
