Yesterday, the Drupal Security team issued a Security Advisory for the Mollom module, SA-CONTRIB-2018-038. The module is now marked as "unsupported".
The security team is marking this project unsupported. There is a known security issue with the project that has not been fixed by the maintainer.
Paul Barnett has written a very helpful, carefully applied, commentary on 1 Corinthians.
Discussing 1 Corinthians 4:14-16, he gets close to the heart of the problem Paul was addressing in Corinth, and also how that underyling problem makes the letter relevant today:
The other day I was asked why we spend time in church (during sermons) talking about issues that may not be relevant for us today.
On the face of it, it's a good question.
If I look out at the church family here, I can think of many subjects that speak directly into needs we know and feel. Maybe there are issues about unemployment, family life, over-demanding employers, ageing and dementia, the housing market, and so on.
500 years ago, William Tyndale lost his life in his campaign to give the English people one Bible in their own language. Today, we're spoilt for choice, with many excellent English translations of the Bible. Here's a paper I wrote in 2013 to help us decide which translation we should use in church.
Having recently bought and built a Calder High Sleeper Bed, I thought I'd leave a brief review here, together with a few tips when it comes to building it.
Here's a technical problem I encountered a while back.
Someone wrote a blogpost using the Wordpress platform. I wanted to post a comment. I wrote my comment, and entered (as requested) my name and email address.
I then received a message that I have to log into my Wordpress account:
"You are being asked to login because {my email} is used by an account you are not logged into now."
So I enter what I thought was my Wordpress password, and I discover that I have remembered wrongly.
Drupal 8 uses Composer for package management. You can still install a Drupal 8 site by downloading a tarball, but we're all encouraged to use Composer to download Drupal core and other dependencies and to keep things up to date.
I'm just starting to get my head around how Drupal 8 works, so that I can reach the point where I can build new sites in 8.x rather than 7.x, and in time migrate existing sites over. Composer is part of the learning curve for this.
Yesterday, at 7.13pm, the Drupal Security Team issued a public service announcement: Drupal 7 and 8 core highly critical release on March 28th, 2018 PSA-2018-001.
This needs a bit of background to understand.
Updates to Drupal Core fall into one of new kinds.
Having travelled between France and Italy through the tunnel de Fréjus, I thought I'd post a few tips and facts to help others
There are many scams doing the rounds. People must fall for them often enough to make it worth the criminals' time to keep trying. Here's one which you'll likely meet if you ever register a domain name. If you've just registered your first domain name, there's a risk that your lack of experience will make you vulnerable to panic and respond. So I'll post this to unpick how this works, and to put your mind at ease that you can safely ignore these emails.
