nodeapi, inserts, and listhandler
by tmckeown＠gmail.com 15 Apr '06

15 Apr '06

Hi, I am currently working on 4.6 and I am using a ezmlm, mailhandler, listhandler, and forum to organize an online community. I seem to have everything set up except I can't get new forum nodes to get posted to the listserve. I am locked into this combo at the present ... at a later date I probably will be migrating to 4.7. Oh I am also using postgres and I have converted a small amount of code to work with postgres. by looking at the code, it looks like listhandler_nodeapi takes care of the sending of new nodes to the listserve. The problem I seem to be having is that this hook executed when there is the insert signal on a node ... more specifically the forum node. I put a bit of debugging code in to see what the $op variable is when the function is called. I never see an insert.... My question is, is this just broken in listhandler, or is it an issue with the nodeapi hook? Or am I just crazy and missing something? I also notice some calls to a UTF8 function. Why the conversion? thanks --Trevor

Updating xtemplate
by Gerhard Killesreiter 15 Apr '06

15 Apr '06

Hi there! We are in the hot phase of the release of Drupal 4.7. Steven pointed out that still a number of modules need to be made compatible for 4.7. One of the things that should be updated does not even have a project... xtemplate This theme engine was removed from Drupal core (for good reasons). A lot of people however are likely to still rely on it, however. So I ask for some kind soul to create a project for it and bring it up to 4.7 standards. I've heard that there is even a version of the include files for php5 somewhere on the net. We also need to remember to print a prominent notice about the removal somewhere (might already be there). This is a great opportunity for somebody less techie to do a great service for the Drupal community. I know you all have waited for it. On a releated note: queue.module was also removed from core. We should create a project for it and point out that nmoderation can be used as an replacement. IIRC Jeff Eaton was even going to provide an upgrade path. Cheers, Gerhard

There are some equivilent tools on Windows (findstr, wmic, netsh), install activestate perl or python if you need a real scripting language and don't want to use cygwin. Pat

I would develop on your mac and deploy on the test windows server, in that case rsyncing, ftp-ing or using a samba share would be the way I think

1. What is the most productive way to connect to a remote Microsoft server from an Intel-based Mac? 2. Once connected, what is the best way to develop Drupal on a remote Microsoft server? I typically use Unix-type command line tools and am unfamiliar with the ways of Windows. Any advice is welcome. Nic Ivy

Flexinode
by Bèr Kessels 14 Apr '06

14 Apr '06

Hello there, http://drupal.org/project/issues?projects=5737&versions=6423&categories=bug… brings you to a list of all critical flexinode issues. These are but a few that hold flexinode from releasing 4.7. Since flexinode is very widely spread, I see this as a critical module for many conversions to 4.7. In other words: when flexinode is not released for 4.7, a lot of sites may choose to hang on to 4.6 for a little while longer. Three things are important to notice: * please choose 'field type' as component when it has nothing to do with flexinodes core * please do not set critical flags on field types. We can release without e.g. email.inc, so a bug in there is not really critical. * I will remove (cvs rm) some fields that are older then 4.6. More about that later.

Tagging and branching, again.
by Steven Wittens 14 Apr '06

14 Apr '06

A recent commit to core broke a lot of 4.7 contrib modules [1]. I wanted to patch all contrib modules automatically to save authors the effort of making this change individually. The plan was to take all 4.7 tagged modules, apply the change, then apply the same diff to HEAD. However, of the 74 files in HEAD which might need the change, only 16 are present in 4.7. And I know from looking through those 74 files that there are plenty more that are 4.7 compatible (or at least intend to be). So I revisited Dries' list of the Top 20 most downloaded projects from a couple months ago [2]. The results are simply shocking. Of the 12 modules on the list, only 3 are available for 4.7. The top 3 modules all appear to have 4.7 versions in HEAD, and none of them are tagged properly. This has to change immediately. If Drupal 4.7.0 were to be released now (which would be true if it weren't for some late-reported issues), there would be a riot for all the modules that did not have clear 4.7 versions. And as my situation shows, it is a huge bother for all developers too. The tagging docs are still at: http://drupal.org/node/17570 It takes at most a minute to do. Do so now.

check_markup() question
by Gordon Heydon 14 Apr '06

14 Apr '06

Hi, With check markup I was wondering if there was any way of passing additional data through to the php filter. What I would like to do is in E-Commerce I would like to turn the emails into filtered fields, so you can use php to really make you email look really good. The problem is that most of the time I will not know what the transaction is, and would like to pass it. Also is it possible to have a filter that is allowed only in certain situations as I would like to turn all the ecommerce emails into filtered fields, but this does not really relate to a node at all. I did think of changing it so that I can have a subroutine like drupal_set_title() which I can call and set the current transaction and then I can get the transaction if I need it. Thanks for any assistance. Gordon.

Re: [development] Tagging and branching, again.

When I got in trouble for branching someone else's contrib stuff, TortoiseCVS's remove branch command let me merge the 4-7 branch back into HEAD, deleting the 4-7 and just putting some weirdly, long numbered 1.6.1.2-type versions in the HEAD branch. I'll take a shot removing an unwanted 4-7 branch if someone tells me, gives permission, etc.
