Just one day after arrving back from weeks of holidays I found myself in the train from Brummen (The Netherlands) to London for CiviCon 2011, of which we were proud Silver sponsors. We arrived in time, and it was great to meet my API friends Xavier Dutoit and Eileen McNaughton (who I had never met IRL) and Kurund Jalmi and Yashodha Chaku from the CiviCRM Core team.
We found that non-profit organizations/non-government organizations often face the phenomenon of lack of resources and therefore there is not much manpower to manage the
CiviCon London is only 1 week away which means it's time to draft a "State of the Project" presentation for the opening session. It's a good time to look up from our computer screens so we can think about and discuss goals for the next few years.
Hi,
As a friday follows up of our research on how civicrm powered sites are visible on twitter, we did a casual textmining of the 1022 tweets that contains a link to an event, donation, petition or profile on one of 175 identified sites that use civicrm.
The team is excited to annouce the release of 3.4.5 and 4.0.5. We strongly recommend reviewing the 3.4/4.0 highlights post, where you will find out what’s new and hot in 3.4/4.0 release in general. This release has 130+ bug fixes and a few improvements, hence we would recommend upgrading to this version. Check here for a detailed list of bug fixes and improvements.
Hi,
We conducted a research to see how often someone tweeted about a page powered by CiviCRM in the past month and a half. We analysed 858 tweets by 612 users about 163 sites, some big names like oxfam or the red cross, some for tiny organisations.
This August 31st and September 1st we are running two CiviCRM trainings: one for developers and implementors and one for users and administrators.
Good day all,
This is to let you know that we are starting a user group for the german speaking countries (aka germany, austria, switzerland).
Problem
A client approached us with a specific need; to allow for the concept of “teams” in event registration. In addition to tracking team groups, they wanted to automatically send the team captain an email notifying them of a new team member. Unfortunately at this time, Civi does not have a great mechanism to automatically track teams in the context of event registrations.
