We propose to show the making-of a generic platform for the french national radio group and its first implementation for the www.franceculture.com website. This is a long term project as we started it two years ago. We'll also present some specific module we developped for this build and architectural generality of the project.

45 minutes (+15 minutes Q&A)

First implementation of our generic platform : www.franceculture.com

Just after Szeged drupalcon, we won a competition for the building of a generic media platform for the french public national radio group, Radio France. The idea was to have some common basis for all their websites, grouped in a drupal website. Then each of their radio site, or any site they would produce, would be run under this platform.
There was an economical interest for them as well as getting a dedicated team with a good knowledge of this platform.

Additional Presenters: Franck Deroche

Displaying trending content is important to any site. Luckily for Drupal, we have the perfect tool – the Radioactivity module. In this session we will walk through the most common and even the more innovative use cases for the tool. By the end of this session, you will ace all the various settings and scenarios.
