How To

Even those who don't run a full-fledged online shop sometimes need the option for website visitors to make payments, such as donations, costs for informational materials, or event registration fees.

What are good payment options in Backdrop? Which payment methods are recommended, can they easily be implemented in Backdrop, and how? For example: How can Paypal or Stripe be integrated with various modules like Webform, Registration, Ubercart, or Basic Cart?

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? 

Many universities are adopting Backdrop CMS for various reasons, with budget efficiency and flexibility being key factors. As financial and structural considerations become increasingly important, let's explore the features that can make the CampusDrop platform a strong choice for educational institutions (K-12, community colleges, and universities). We'll discuss flexible layouts with Layout Paragraphs, customizable content types, preset views, and display options, among other capabilities designed to meet the unique needs of educational organizations.

There is work happening on the Content Moderation module and Workflow modules.

This session will talk about what these modules do, about progress being made, and about other related modules.

Without any special action, the Backdrop CMS user interface is presented in English. But of course the system can also be operated in other languages, e.g. Arabic, French, Hebrew, Persian, Spanish, Swedish, and many more.

In this session let's talk about,

• how to equip a Backdrop website's user interface with multiple languages,
• which tools can be used to translate the user interface individually,
• how to help improve translations for the community on the Backdrop translation server.

What do you use to protect the privacy of visitors to your site(s) and your client sites?

How to balance privacy requirement with functionality?

How can we make the measures we implement to support privacy as user friendly as possible?

What has changed since the last Backdrop LIVE?

I'd like to discuss the possibility of improving the documentation for contrib projects.  Not every project will need this and for many the README is all that is needed, but some use the Wiki.  Wikis are alright but they are not searchable, either internally or from Google.

I've been experimenting with VitePress (used for Lando documentation) as a Github Action to publish into pages.  At present, GitHub Pages are disabled in backdrop-contrib but perhaps this could change?

I did a presentation a few months back in Asheville about a security incident that I experienced.  Let's not rehash the entire talk but expand it to discuss strategies and tools to keep passwords and secrets secure.
