On a sunny Monday in early March another great meet up, organised by Graham and Marcus was kindly hosted by Macmillan Cancer Support. You might wonder what a Rotary Club, charities from entirely different fields, and a developer with a host of varying clients have in common apart from the obvious need to manage organisational relationships and data with an excellent open source CRM.

We are excited to announce that registration is open for CiviCamp SF Bay Area 2018 — the first-ever low-cost daylong meetup in our region specifically designed for current CiviCRM users and non-users who want to explore CiviCRM.
During this coming April, you may notice something peculiar on the civicrm.org download page -- instead of 4.7.32, you'll see a jump up to 5.0.0. Does this mean that CiviCRM is finally implementing a personal voice-assistant to take-down Amazon Echo? Nope. Maybe it means open-season on changes, granting a general license to break backward-compatibility? Nope. 5.0 is boring. It's basically the same thing as 4.7. It's just a big number with a little change.
I have finished a working prototype of the form-processor and action-provider extension. See my previous blog post for where the idea came from.
Greetings, CiviCRM community!
We are glad to announce the March CiviCRM release is now ready to download.
RELEASE NOTES:
Big thanks to Andrew Hunt from AGH Strategies for putting up together release notes for this version.
The release notes for 4.7.31 can be accessed here.
Cividesk is offering our new user class on the Fundamentals of Contact Management this Wednesday, March 7th from 1 - 3 pm MT (3 - 5 pm ET). Click here for more information and to register. Class size is kept small to allow for questions, and classes do fill up, so we recommend registering soon!
On many occasions, clients have mentioned that the contact summary screen loses a lot of prime space to the communication preferences and demographics sections.
“Is there no way to collapse them by default like you can with custom data? They are rarely used but are needed”
They’re aware that demographics and communication preferences can be removed via the UI (/civicrm/admin/setting/preferences/display?reset=1)
This two hour on-line training on Friday, March 2nd (9 am PT/ 10 am MT/ 11 am CT/ 12 pm ET) taught by Cividesk is perfect for new users of CiviCRM who would like to learn all the basics of CiviMember.
The Documentation Working Group is planning a remote sprint to improve content in the User Guide. Everyone is invited to participate! Experience editing our docs will be helpful but not required.
