Last week, Hershel Robinson, created a Drupal module for my client (called CiviCopyAddr) to handle the copying of the primary address into the Billing Address fields via a toggled checkbox.  It's located at https://github.com/hershelsr/civicopyaddr .  We use Authorize.net as the payment processor.  To make it work:

1. Copy the files from the github into a directory call CiviCopyAddr and copy that directory into sites/all/modules and enable the module in Drupal.

One of the best things about CiviCRM 3.4 and 4 for Joomla! users is that hooks are now implemented using the Joomla! plugin system. This actually has always worked, but it was not documented and now it's implemented a lot more cleanly.

Hi,

Some improvements on permissions and the API are landing on 3.4.2 and 4.0.2.

On the previous versions, the permissions where not enforced (on php and smarty) and checked on the same permission "access civicrm" for the rest and ajax no matter the operation and entity.

CiviCRM is a really nice product for the developer in me because it allows you to create the exact solution as requested by a customer. I have been learning the ins and outs of the system the best I can over the past three weeks so when my customer requested the ability to click a button on the main navigation to see pending and active cases I figured it would be easy.

After spending a lot of time, CiviSync CMS Component (for Joomla) and Module (for Drupal) were able to see the sunlight. We have now released the two extensions on our website www.targetintegration.com

Hi this is Stuart from Korlon LLC.  I decided to write a case study about ACLs since they don't seem to get a lot of attention.  If you've ever wondered (or asked) "what if some people should only be able to see certain data in Civi?" then ACLs will probably accomplish what you want.

At the last user and admin training in London we decided to create exercise books to accompany the training. The idea was to move from an online format to a printed format, and we used the same tool that we use to create 'CiviCRM: a comprehensive guide': Booki.

CiviCRM 3.4.1 and 4.0.1 release includes 70+ bug fixes since the initial 3.4 / 4.0  release. Both versions are now available for download. You can also try it out on the public demos: Drupal 6 / Drupal 7 and Joomla 1.5 / Joomla 1.6 sites. We strongly recommend reviewing the 3.4/4.0 highlights post, where you will find out what’s new and hot in this release. The newest CiviCRM versions are:

I recently had a requirement to set up a CiviCRM install so that whenever an event (or specific types) was created an organic group would also be created. When someone registered for that event they would be added to the organic group and if they were registered as a teacher they would become the manager of the organic group.

The focus of this blog is on the code implementation of this requirement using rules integration. I wanted to see if it could be done by rules & if that would set a useful precedent. The two aspects of Rules that where the crux of what I was trying to do were not implemented in the CiviCRM Rules module so I will describe them in some detail.
