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.

Adding Logic to Your Site with Rules Module

The Rules module is a module that allows site architects to create action/reaction events that would normally require writing custom code. Some of the things you can do with the rules module include:

1) Sending an email to a site editor anytime someone creates a new article or comment.

2) Automatically assigning a special role to anyone who creates a new account. 

3) Automatically unpublish content after a certain time frame.

4) Automatically assign a node to someone other than the author.
