Drupal search, group by content type
by Jeff Hartman 26 Sep '11

26 Sep '11

Is there an easy way to change the keyword search results so they are ordered by content types, then by score? I want to 3 of my content types to always appear in the results first (in an order I determine) ordered by score. Then all other results to appear after by score DESC. Seems that just by modifying the $sort_parameters of the do_search() function would do it, but the order of the results I'm getting doesn't seem like it is having any effect (maybe due to the pager too). Drupal 6.

Should theme_form() called when 'render element' => form?
by E.J. Zufelt 20 Sep '11

20 Sep '11

Good morning, I have been working on http://drupal.org/node/1269734 and have found that one form in Core doesn't seem to get passed through theme_form. search_block_form has a theme hook set in search_theme(). The hook sets the template to search-block-form.tpl.php, and sets the render element as 'form'. This appears to create the following markup: 1. The <form> wrapper (which does not appear to be themed with theme_form(). 2. The contents from search-block-form.tpl.php 3. The children of the form, printed in search-block-form.tpl.php, from the $search_form variable, defined in template_preprocess_search_block_form() Is it right to expect that the form element is not passed through theme_form() when it is rendered in this way, or is this a bug?

problem with db_query and menu call backs
by Pooya 15 Sep '11

15 Sep '11

I just wrote a module to send a report of all our online clients to us(server) every time cron runs. In this situation I made both server and client module in one drupal installation, to develop and test. I faced a weired problem so here's my code(just lines u need to see). this is a hook_menu for 'itaco_remote' which is the callback of server module. Then 'itacocms_report' item which I made to call a function and test reporting, this one will be in client module and will be removed, so I call it in cron. <?php *function itacocms_menu() { $items['itaco_remote'] = array( 'page callback' => 'itacocms_itaco_xml', 'access arguments' => array('access content'), 'page arguments' => array(1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10,11), 'type' => MENU_CALLBACK, ); $items['itacocms_report'] = array( 'page callback' => 'itacocms_itaco_report', 'access arguments' => array('access content'), ); return $items; }* ?> this function is called when 'itaco_remote' page is requested, calling with arguments. <?php *function itacocms_itaco_xml($name='name', $url='url', $key='01', $phone='01', $email='email', $date='date', $major='01', $build='01', $address='address', $reseller='reseller', $report_time='01010101'){ $result=db_query("INSERT INTO {itacocms_report} (name, url, key, phone, email, date, major, build, address, reseller, report_time) VALUES ('%s','%s', %d, %d,'%s','%s', %d, %d,'%s','%s', %d)", $name, $url, $key, $phone, $email, $date, $major, $build, $address, $reseller, $report_time); }* ?> This one is where I used 'drupal_http_request()' and send the data I need, to above function using GET method. <?php *function itacocms_itaco_report(){ global $base_url; $request_url = 'http://localhost/poosheshrah.com/itaco_remote'. '/'.urlencode(itacocms_customer_info(name)). '/'.urlencode($base_url). '/'.urlencode(itacocms_customer_info(product_id)). '/'.urlencode(itacocms_customer_info(phone)). '/'.urlencode(itacocms_customer_info(email)). '/'.urlencode(itacocms_customer_info(date)). '/'.urlencode(itacocms_customer_info(major)). '/'.urlencode(itacocms_customer_info(build)). '/'.urlencode(itacocms_customer_info(address)). '/'.urlencode(itacocms_customer_info(reseller)). '/'.'010101'; // Send the request. $result = drupal_http_request($request_url); }* ?> Problem here is when I open 'example.com/itacocms_report' and it sends the request to 'itaco_remote' db_query doesn't work at all and nothing's inserted in database. Is there something wrong with my drupal_http_request() or db_query()? I tried to debug this and using print and devel module but couldn't find the problem. also made a topic here http://drupal.org/node/1280106

Remote db, site offline
by Jeff Hartman 10 Sep '11

10 Sep '11

I thought this would be straight forward, but alas I am confused. I typically have my database on my local machine, but I'm in a situation where I need to move my database to a remote server so multiple people can be developing at the same time. Drupal install and files are all local to each developer. Problem is, I can't get my local settings file to work with the remote database. In my settings file I've updated my $db_url string to use the remote db. I'm able to connect to the db via command line or MySQL GUI app using the same credentials as my settings file, but Drupal does seem to want to use the values in $db_url. Are there any cache settings or something else in the database that would restrict me from doing this? Jeff
