The blog is still a work in progress as far as styling goes, but we figured we'd put it up in case you guys are interested in the topics.

Ubercart Profile (uc_profile) module extended

I was approached by a client to extend certain functionality in the uc_profile module.

The Clients

SuitsAndThais.com sells custom made tailored suits. They require their readers to be able to input their measurements along with their order. They were using Drupal Profile module to allow for this information to be inputted upon registration and UC Profile module to inject this information into the Ubercart Checkout.

HOWTO: Drupal Staging

I've recently begun to work with a larger company who requires me to work on a development server, then push those changes to a staging server and finally once everything is working perfect, move those changes to the live site. All this in the past has been fine for me, and it follow my old normal flow of development. I develop on my laptop, push those to my own server to demo and once everything is okay'd I finally install the product on the clients server. The issue here, is that they've already had their sites live for a couple years. The development version could have been pulled down a couple months ago and there will significant servers between that and the live version. So what's the Drupal solution for this?
