Link Rel Next/Previous and First/Index and Home
by Gildas Cotomale 06 Dec '06

06 Dec '06

I often use Lynx to browse my Drupal site and i think that we should use "REL" and "REV" other than "stylesheet" in LINK for a higher accessibility, specially for books navigation... For those who are not familiar with that stuff, here are some nice links : <http://www.w3.org/MarkUp/HTMLPlus/htmlplus_55.html> <http://diveintoaccessibility.org/day_9_providing_additional_navigation_aids…> <http://wordpress.org/support/topic/39661> Now, here is my question. Does Drupal core (specially book.module, or is it a theme specific trick?) provide native support for that? If yes, how to use it? If no, any one has idea how to add this? Thanks

New docs for multipage forms in drupal.org handbook
by Jeff Eaton 06 Dec '06

06 Dec '06

A few months ago during the crazy dash to rewrite FormAPI, I wrote up a guide to making multistep forms and posted it to my blog. It's now been moved to the Drupal.org handbook at http://drupal.org/node/101707 where it can do more good. It's a bit wordy, and it includes some historical background for 4.7 that's probably unnecessary now, but to the best of my knowledge it's the only place that the nature of the #multistep flag is documented. :-) In the future I'd like to update the multistep example module in contrib to match this article, too. --Jeff Eaton

Re: [development] General token parser (API), does it exist?
by Nathaniel Catchpole 06 Dec '06

06 Dec '06

The thing with this though - I'm not a coder, although I try to do things properly as much as possible (hence why I lurk and occasionally interlope on this list). My first point of call would be the pathauto module for this functionality - on my site that'd give me 11,000 url aliases for something that "can be done with very little bit of custom code, in a custom_url_rewrite function." Presumably it's exactly the same for my c. 4-5,000 taxonomy/term url aliases. If there is (or can be) a cleaner way of doing it that'd be amazing.

Drupal 5.0 -- critical bugs
by Dries Buytaert 06 Dec '06

06 Dec '06

Hello world, Here is an overview of the critical issues that need fixing before we can release Drupal 5.0: http://drupal.org/project/issues? projects=3060&versions=96923,100201,94737&categories=bug,task&priorities =1&states=1,8,13,14 It would be great if we could release by Xmas. To do so, we'll have to get a first RC out _real_ soon. Maybe we can put in a little bit more effort now, so we get to relax around Xmas? Let's _all_ focus on the _critical_ bugs this week? :) -- Dries Buytaert :: http://www.buytaert.net/

This sounds related to a feature request I put in on the taxonomy module this afternoon: http://drupal.org/node/101697 I guess a similar thing would be something like an option to change what's used for /node/ from core (say to /article/[nid] or /story/[nid]) rather than aliasing.

api.drupal.org enhancements
by Chad Phillips -- Apartment Lines 04 Dec '06

04 Dec '06

normally i'd just leave this as a project feature request, but since it concerns the future of api.drupal.org, i thought i'd at least bring it to everyone's attention: http://drupal.org/node/101308 -- make api objects nodes Description discussion with some fellow devs has led me to explore the idea of making the api module run through the node system -- ie, any api 'objects' (functions, files, constants, topics, php functions, etc.) would be mapped to one object per node. ADVANTAGES: 1. more robust searching for free: the main documentation would be made the body of the node, so regular searches via search module would provide another search vector. 2. comments: users would be able to add comments to further clarify the doc, ala php.net 3. bookmarks: using bookmark module, users could have a handy block of links to their most used doc sections. 4. ratings/reviews: using voting modules, posted comments could be community moderated by popularity ...and probably half a million other things we get for free, or are easily accessible, because we are interfacing with drupal's primary content system. DISADVANTAGES: 1. performance hit: going through the node system *could* be slower than the current system, which might slow down the doc site for everybody. 2. more code to maintain: the module will probably get even more complex if we take this route. 3. more site maintainance: if we're installing other contrib modules to get some of the above features, then it will be more maintenance/ upgrade work for the api.drupal.org folks. if you have any insights, please post them to the issue listed above! thanks, hunmonk

Controlling User Disk Usage
by Drupal Designs 04 Dec '06

04 Dec '06

Hi, I am looking to see if there is any way one can have disk usage limit set per user? Basically wanted to know what is the best way to implement payment levels (monthly membership) based on disk usage needs for a user? Is there anything available? If not, what is the best way to do it? Would appreciate if the core dev team can help me on this: a) I do have a Client who can sponsor the development b) We do have the resources who can undertake the development and contribute it back to the community c) We want to to know if anyone is working on a similar thing? If so, we would like to know if the solution will be available anytime soon? I was also checking with Mario who posted a similar thread http://drupal.org/node/93210. Mario replied back that he has also not got any answers.

api.drupal.org on Drupal 5
by Chad Phillips -- Apartment Lines 03 Dec '06

03 Dec '06

ladies and gentlemen, announcing the new and slightly improved api.module for Drupal 5! http://api-drupal.pajunas.com/ drumm supplied the bulk of the Drupal 5 conversion code, and also introduced a spiffy new tabbed menu system for the module, which allows users to view different Drupal versions of the same resource with a single click. after a few days of tidying up drumm's initial code, and adding a few other trimmings, we're ready for some good beta testing. if you can, please check out the beta site above and report any bugs you find under the bug section at http://drupal.org/project/api once we've fixed any remaining critical bugs, i'd like to get api.drupal.org ported to Drupal 5. i have two main goals to accomplish with API module: 1. get the current Drupal 5 implementation running smoothly. 2. add any new features which will assist in making a totally local deployment of the module easier. i've already spoken to several people about other feature requests, and there are some good ideas out there, but i can only commit to the above two things for sure. if any patches for new features appear in the queue, though, i will certainly give them some love... :)

Module no longer appears in modules list?
by Jason Levitt 02 Dec '06

02 Dec '06

Not sure if it's ok to post about this here, but my module no longer appears on the 4.7.x module list. I think it has something to do with nightly builds that Drupal is creating (even though I haven't changed anything recently). So, my module (yahoo_bbauth), http://drupal.org/project/yahoo_bbauth used to appear here: http://drupal.org/project/Modules/name but not longer does. If anyone has any suggestions, I'd appreciate it. Jason
