A dragon's eye view of finding content in Backdrop

Out of the box, Backdrop CMS has Views that can have exposed filters and Search.

However, there are modules that can extend the capability of Views and Search including integration with third party solutions including AI.  The purpose of this session is to give a high level overview of the options with very brief demos.  The idea being if there is demand to dig deeper, these sessions can be added later in the unconference.

Welcome to Backdrop LIVE

Welcome to Backdrop LIVE.

We will ask (but don't require) that everyone introduce themselves and tell us a little about their experience with or interest in Backdrop CMS. Other agenda items for this opening session:

  1. How Backdrop LIVE works
  2. Welcome message from Nate Lampton
  3. Opportunity to add topics to the schedule

Different approaches for ALT text on images

Backdrop contains several different methods for how to put ALT text on your images. None are perfect, and there is room for improvement. In this discussion I would like to cover:

  • How to store ALT text with Image fields (see video)
  • How to store ALT text with Image (File) entities (see video)
  • We can improve this! How do we want core to handle this, in the future?
