By bdaniels Filed under Tools, CiviCRM, Drupal, ExtensionsCiviCRM Entity Reference Field is a submodule of the CiviCRM Entity project. One of the many advantages of installing the CiviCRM Entity module is the ability to use Drupal’s Entity Reference module to reference CiviCRM data from nodes, terms, or other entity types. Many people are using the Inline Entity Form module, which provides field widgets that allow you to create, edit, or delete a referenced entity from the parent form.

As you may be aware, new PCI DSS requirements state that all payment systems must disable early TLS by 2018.
As part of this requirement, PayPal, Auth.Net and Braintree are updating its services to require TLS 1.2 for all HTTPS connections along with requiring HTTP/1.1 for all connections. You need to make sure your CiviCRM is all set with this change which you could do by doing the following checks.

By bdaniels Filed under CiviEvent, Tools, CiviCRM, Drupal, ExtensionsCiviCRM Entity is a contributed module for tightly integrating and extending CiviCRM with Drupal. This module exposes CiviCRM API entities as proper Drupal entity types. This is HUGE as it allows you to make CiviCRM data available within your favorite Drupal tools such as Rules, Views, and EntityReference. I’d like to present another advantage of Drupal entity types, and that is Drupal fields.

By danaskallman Filed under Community, MeetupsLast year in February we started a series of CiviNYC work days. It consists of an event where we work and learn from each other for an afternoon, usually around 4 hours. Here's what it looks like.

By colemanw Filed under API, Make it happenWe’ve talked about and have made some progress on APIv4. Along with a native form builder and an improved UI, a new version of CiviCRM’s API was identified as a key objective our roadmap. While it may be the least glamorous of the three, it is an increasingly important and powerful feature within CiviCRM. And it’s time for an update.

By cividesk Filed under TrainingYour organization has a solid membership base, but you want to retain members and help it grow. How can CiviCRM help?
The membership renewal process can be daunting, but learning how to best use CiviMember, as well as features of CiviCampaign, CiviMail and CiviReport, will make your membership outreach more targeted, streamline the on-line renewal process, and help you track your progress.
