This is hot stuff, so I make this a new thread (Or trying to...) <br>
<br>
With just some additional functionality this module could increase the
usefulness of
Drupal CMS by many factors. Namely the possibility to insert the
content from one node into another, in combination with the
possibility to pass parameters through the call, also for page content
(i.e.
using the called-for node as a template.). This exact feature is what
makes MediaWiki
beat Drupal for some needs (while it still lacks some other
indispensable features...). You can read more in detail what I mean in
the post by Rolf here: <a
href="http://drupal.org/node/52816#comment-99961">http://drupal.org/node/52816#comment-99961</a>
<a href="http://sv.rilbible.org/wiki/index.php/1_Mos_1"></a><br>
<br>
Would this be possible to implement into this module? I think including
it into a module of this kind might be a more generic solution also,
than packing it together with a wiki module pack. Actually it would be
great to see something like this in the core some day?<br>

It basically uses filters to substitute [node:123] with the contents of
the node. It also has image-specific code (for Drupal 4.5) that allows
for manipulation of the rendering: <br>
<br>
[node:123,res="640x480"] <br>
[node:123,res="original",title="Original version of the picture"] <br>
<br>
A coworker wrote a custom UI in my project to insert the node tag
content from a select list, but others feel comfortable just typing
these tags in directly. <br>
This code has not been touched in 20 months. Feel free to update it to
Drupal 4.6 or 4.7. <br>

I appreciate all the input and you can keep it coming. But the one
thing that is missing in the responses is the main question. Frequently
after someone tries to make a contribution they are stopped because
their project is similar or the same as another ongoing project. To
avoid this collision I thought to ask if anyone has a project that is
even remotely like this?

I've done something similar that essentially redirects all
<br>
comments to a non-forum node to an assigned forum node. Yes, it's
<br>
a matter of hook_nodeapi, a table to keep track of associations,
<br>
and hook_link. Post count ( e.g. 1 comment, 2 comments) is already
<br>
handled by the comment.module once you know the associated forum
<br>
topic nid.
<br>
I can send you code snippets if this description is not
enough.

A site I've been working on has almost *exactly* the same
<br>
requirement. It's still in development, so the code doesn't
<br>
exist yet (urgh), but our conclusion was:
<br>
Use nodeapi's insert $op to intercept new blog posts.
When
<br>
they're saved, programmatically create a forum post with the
<br>
blog post's teaser and a link pointing to the 'full' blog
<br>
entry. In nodapi's 'view' $op, add a link at the bottom of the
<br>
blog post to 'discuss this post' that points to the forum
<br>
topic in question. It would work best when blog posts have
<br>
comments disabled; that way there's only one place to discuss
<br>
a given blog post. The end result is that blog posts point to
<br>
the forum for discussion. It would probably work best if there
<br>
was a dedicated forum category for those types of posts.
<br>
I'm not sure if that's helpful, but it's the flow we
came up
<br>
with. There's some sample code for programmatically creating
<br>
forum nodes in the 'devel' module's generate-content.php
<br>
script. It handles the proper linking of taxonomies and
<br>
updating of post counts, etc.

That type of solution is a bit too complicated to set up
<br>
and administrate.
<br>
<br>
What we are looking at is a integration of two types of
<br>
community user. The blogger and the forum user. A blogger
<br>
consistently writes on topics but may not do so in a way
<br>
that it sparks a forum. They may be just blah blahing. But
<br>
sometimes they may blog on a topic that fits in with a
<br>
Forum category. In this case we would like the user to be
<br>
able to take a blog and insert it inline into the first
<br>
post. This is so that comments and replies land in the
<br>
right venue. Also the blogger or site administrator does
<br>
not have moderate blog comments and replies this is left
<br>
up to the moderators of the Forum.
