Why is drupal_page_footer() triggering cron?
by Ernst Plüss 15 Jul '11

15 Jul '11

Hi In D7 I discovered at the end of drupal_page_footer()[1] cron jobs are started. On our website this triggers the search index being updated, which can take minutes. Needles to say that the user doesn't want to wait for this to be finished. I'm curious whether cron is relay called at the end of each page request? My understanding of hook_cron is that it is only called by cron.php. How can I make sure that this does not trigger any long running cron jobs?

how to display solr search results?
by Dragomilov 12 Jul '11

12 Jul '11

I have an solr instance populated by nutch. I just want to display search results - coming from existing solr instance - using drupal. What is the easiest way to display search results coming from solr using drupal? P.S. I have alread read about http://drupal.org/project/apachesolr, however it seems that it is used to both, index data already hosted in drupal, and search. Plus my current schema.xml and the one that comes with this module is different. thanks,

views: custom conditions using fields from multiple tables
by Roman Zimmermann 09 Jul '11

09 Jul '11

hi, for a site specific view I'd need to implement a view which's query has a condition that spans multiple tables. It'll look something like: table1.field = 'value' OR table2.field = 'other value' Is this possible using D6/views2 ? Am I better off just using a custom query? thanks in advance for any pointers! regards, roman

Links in node view
by Alex Adams 07 Jul '11

07 Jul '11

I need to add a link as a rendered array to node views. I have accomplished this from a page. The link calls an AJAX function and refreshes a custom module block. Now I need to put a series of links in node views. These will add records to module generated database tables based on the contents of $node, specifically $nid, then refresh a block that will reflect the new record. I am learning much about Drupal 7. I am an experienced developer, but Drupal is so complex, that I seem to be struggling with every step. It took me an embarrassingly long time to figure out how to refresh a block from a content page link. Can someone give me the basics (or specifics) I need to accomplish this next step? Note: I have been posting similar questions on the support list, but am getting almost no responses, so I¹m trying the development list. I thought the development list was probably for Drupal contributors, but maybe not, or maybe you guys can help me anyway.

D7: Getting attached files from nid and field name
by Fabio Varesano 07 Jul '11

07 Jul '11

Hi everyone, In Drupal 7.x, given a nid and a file field name, I'm trying to get the files (as fids or file objects) which have been uploaded as file attachments to that node. Drupal will populate $node->{$field_name} only when there are files set as "displayed" but I need to do this for all the files of that field, no matters how their display setting is. I've spent quite some time investigating into this but the new d7 file api looks pretty obscure from a documentation and code point of view. IMHO, too much "drupal magic" happening there for a fast understanding. Any pointer to good documentation and/or suggestion on the solution greatly appreciated. Thanks, Fabio Varesano

Using l() function from external script
by Jeff Hartman 06 Jul '11

06 Jul '11

In Drupal 6 I have an external script to create some nodes. I would like to use the l() function to create links to other nodes using 'node/n' as the path. However, since my script is running at doc root*, the l function (actually the url() function) is prepending the current directory to the url. So instead of: http://www.example.com/this/that/then-some I'm getting: http://www.example.com/scripts/this/that/then-some Thoughts? Jeff * later this script will move outside of doc root

Drupal AHAH form submission
by Mukesh Agarwal 05 Jul '11

05 Jul '11

Hi Guys, I'm using AHAH to submit a form - a node add/edit form - by adding a button with ahah attributes. I registered a URL with my hook_menu for ahah submission, then using $_POST I rebuild the form but I dont think I'm getting the values of body form element in $_POST .. Following is my code.. callback function of my ahah registered menu path.. include_once 'modules/node/node.pages.inc'; > > $form_state = array('storage' => NULL, 'submitted' => FALSE); > > $form_build_id = $_POST['form_build_id']; > > // Get the form from the cache. > > $form = form_get_cache($form_build_id, $form_state); > > $args = $form['#parameters']; > > $form_id = array_shift($args); > > // We will run some of the submit handlers so we need to disable > redirecting. > > $form['#redirect'] = FALSE; > > // We need to process the form, prepare for that by setting a few > internals > > // variables. > > $form['#post'] = $_POST; > > $form['#programmed'] = FALSE; > > $form_state['post'] = $_POST; > > // This call recreates the form relying solely on the form_state that > the > > // drupal_process_form set up. > > $form = drupal_rebuild_form($form_id, $form_state, $args, > $form_build_id); > > watchdog('innoraft', 'Form Values: ' . serialize($form_state['values' > ])); > > > > // Render the new output. > > unset($form['essay-box']['#prefix'], $form['essay-box']['#suffix']); > > $form['essay-box']['#value'] = 'Saved'; > > $output = drupal_render($form['essay-box']); > > drupal_json(array('status' => TRUE, 'data' => $output)); > > exit(); > but when I do a watchdog of the form values or $_POST via: watchdog('innoraft', 'Form Values: ' . serialize($form_state['values'])); I dont see the value that I put in body field.. Am I doing it right? -- Cheers, Mukesh Agarwal ________________________________ Innoraft Solutions <http://www.innoraft.com> || +91 8017220799
