I seem to spend a large amount of time helping people to get data back out of CiviCRM. I'm a big fan of the reports framework and up until 4.2 I made a number of improvements to the core reports for my customers. However, from 4.2 I switched to doing reports in an extension. I have been doing almost all my reports in the extended reports extension and have been playing with a few ideas in that extension. Some of them are well developed, others are in the early stages.
Just created a quick ERD for CiviCase, and shared it on this page http://wiki.civicrm.org/confluence/display/CRMDOC42/CiviCRM+ERD+3.3.
It is version 3.3, so not the latest and greatest. But I am sure I will have to check the same ERD for version 4 at a near point in the future and update the ERD too. And I do not think there are major differences in the data model......
The next London CiviCRM meetup on Wednesday 28th November. We've run some really sucessful meetups over the last couple of years and we're looking forward to another great turn out.
If you are using CiviCRM Webform Integration with Drupal 7, there has been a security release to fix potential permissions problems - you should upgrade the module as soon as possible.
The team is excited to announce the fifth release of 4.2 stable with support for Drupal 7, Joomla 2.5 and WordPress 3.x
Hi All,
Following discussions with a number of clients Compucorp and GMCVO are pleased to announce we are looking to collaborate to develop a "CiviBooking" extention for CiviCRM.
Overview:
The aim of the module will be to create a CMS independent extension to allow organisations to manage a group of resources (i.e. rooms) offering these to constituents for a fee.
Hi,
Node.js allows to run javascript on the server and is great for real time applications when you want to have lots of users and connections at the same time
I wrote a node module to easily connect to a civicrm server from that node.js. I found a cool module that makes it easy to generate names, addresses, phone number and emails and hacked a quick example of how civi can be used from node.js.
This is an extremely simple extension that adds two tiny pieces of functionality that I'm sure many marketing types will love. It adds percentages to the 'opens' and 'click-through' totals on CiviMail reports.
That's it, but gives you a quick overview of your mailouts success.
Download the extension here.
I've been tinkering with this for a while and now have a limited extension released for easily displaying statistics about your constituents in front end locations of your website using CiviCRM Smarty tokens.
There's only a few available right now, mainly due to my own time constraints, but also because I'd like people to tell me what they need and I'll add functionality that way.
Update November 1st: CiviCRM 4.2.6 was released today with resolution to this data loss issue. You can review details of the resolution and testing process on the issue tracker. A separate database cleanup script has been implemented to handle the original "problem data" issue.
