Deathray Training Day 1

Thought I’d update you on the first day of Liferay training. The church is beautiful. I wish I had a camera to take pictures… the LIferay corporate headquarters is located in an active church. The address sign says the church’s name, no Liferay ANYWHERE! I had to call to find it, after I drove directly there. We are meeting in Sunday school room 4. Liferay is two rooms of Chinese people in the annex. It’s RAD. Today was a great overview of all the stuff I taught myself over the last 7 months. Tom looks like it should be some good new stuff. As far as useful, I do get lots of personal time with the liferay folks. Got lots of answers, turns out that automatic SEO friendly urls is in 5.2 (we are running 5.1.1), that subdomains like trainers.vitalsmarts.com, associates.vitalsmarts.com, etc. IS possible, and getting rid of the /web/ in the URL IS also possible. Silly IT people. So I’ll try to get as many how to’s on those tom. My impressions thus far is that we are trying to kill a bug with a bulldozer. There are three of us in the training, the other two guys work for companies 2000+…. I didn’t mention that we almost have 80. Anyhoooo Training was a bit slow today as the other two guys kept having problems during the excercise sections.. ha good thing I had a year to practice. One other thing I think we could’ve setup trainer zone as an organization instead of as a community.. but oh well. Aight, hope you enjoyed your DAY OFF.
