Translation speed
by Khalid B 14 Feb '06

14 Feb '06

Adding an index on the source column of the locales_source table seem to increase performance. See here http://drupal.org/node/48563 I think this is worth considering for 4.7.

Form field maxlengths vs. database field sizes
by Karthik 13 Feb '06

13 Feb '06

This issue stems from Killes' comment [ http://drupal.org/node/46306#comment-71971 ]. Should form field maxlengths be consistent with corresponding database field sizes or should unicode encoding be accounted for? This is especially in light of the fact that 4.7 now converts all existing databases to UTF-8, but also retains support for (MySQL) 3.23.58. Or should we just not use maxlengths at all? Thanks -K P.S Please reply on the issue page: http://drupal.org/node/48510

check_markup() and flexinode
by Fehér János 13 Feb '06

13 Feb '06

Hi, I'm using the 4.7 beta4 and the latest flexinode HEAD. When I try to apply the filters on the fields with this method $node->flexinode_97=check_markup($node->flexinode_97,$node->flexinode_97_format,FALSE); the filters aren't applied . In the body and teaser, everything is OK. What am I do wrong? -- Aries

Submitting a page with POST to do performance testing
by Kieran Lal 12 Feb '06

Hi, I am using Siege to load test the file caching patch. Siege supports posts, http://www.joedog.org/siege/misc/FAQ.php#9. Here is what I have come up with discussing this in #drupal http://localhost/~kieran/drupal/?q =node/add/page POST edit%5Btitle% 5D=title&edit%5Bbod y%5D=body&edit%Bform_id%5D=page_no de_form&op=Submit But it doesn't submit. If anyone could successfully submit any content to head using a HTTP post I would appreciate it if you could pass it along. Thanks, Kieran

Re: [development] touchy mysql ordering
by randall＠thinkingoutloud.org 11 Feb '06

11 Feb '06

Hi, this is my first post to this list, please let me know if I am I out of line in any way. This may be a bigger issue than just the event.module If the suggested fix for event.module works, then logically, the same sort of fix will need to be made to image.module and forum.module and probably some other modules. I think killes is correct with his statement of "The rewriting of the query fails as it isn't in the form the regexp expects" The regexp in question is in the db_rewrite_sql function. This function and its associated hook IMHO provide one of the greatest capabilities to this CMS helping to set Drupal high above the rest. And I am so excited to see that it has been expanded to include vocabularies and terms in version 4.7 (thank you! drupal developers). Here are some thoughts on the issue, it is a little mind-numbing I know and I am sorry. Can someone let me know if I am being clear and also let me know if I am just way off base. I think that the db_rewrite_sql function needs to be more explicit in terms of what sort of SQL statements it accepts for the $query value. I also think that it needs to be very specific in terms of what values are allowed for the $primary_table and $primary_field values. For example, with node list queries, I think the $primary_table must be 'n', the $primary_field must be 'nid' and the $query value must be in the format SELECT X...X FROM {node} n X...X or there are potential problems. Looking at the example code posted in drupaldocs for hook_db_rewrite_sql() at http://drupaldocs.org/api/head/function/hook_db_rewrite_sql. The sample asks if table 'n' is the $primary_table and if not adds it to the join clause. If two modules implemented the hook following that example, checking for the existence of table 'n' and both were enabled on the same site and the $primary_table was 'f' (or 'forum', or 'node' etc. as outlined as acceptable values for db_rewrite_query) the resulting query would be SELECT X...X FROM {forum} f INNER JOIN {node} n ON f.nid=n.nid INNER JOIN {node} n ON f.nid=n.nid X...X which results in ERROR #1066 - Not unique table/alias: 'n' So, therefore, I also think that any module implementing the hook needs to be aware of potential alias conflicts and should make sure to alias tables with a name that won't conflict with someone elseâs module. If interested in more information and more thoughts, please see these three posts... Bad interaction with MySQL 5 & Image & Event modules http://drupal.org/node/40623 SQL error when anonymous: Unknown column 'n.nid' http://drupal.org/node/46864 Error with node access modules and mysql 5 http://drupal.org/node/43735 Thank you, I hope I haven't wasted anyoneâs time.

CVS accounts
by Dries Buytaert 11 Feb '06

11 Feb '06

Hello, for your information, I asked Gerhard (killes) to take over the administration of CVS accounts. This involves approving CVS accounts, fixing CVS passwords, etc. If it is too much work for Gerhard, he'll involve more people. Gerhard has been helping out with this for many weeks, and we've been working together on improving the CVS integration scripts we use on drupal.org. -- Dries Buytaert :: http://www.buytaert.net/
