Overriding function declared in another module
by Leonard den Ottolander.nl 18 Jan '11

18 Jan '11

Hi, I'm trying to modify the delegate_menu_admin module in such a way that the node/add/page form will show the Menu Settings for users with "administer some menus" permissions. In it's current form the module will allow users with this permission to add pages via node/add/page and subsequently link them to menu items via admin/build/menu without having full "administer menu" access. However, this two step approach is not very convenient. The problem I face is the fact that menu_alter_form() declared in menu.module (Drupal 6.2) unconditionally overwrites $form['menu']['#access'] with "user_access('administer menu')" where I want it to also honour user_access('administer some menus'). I also want to limit the presented menus in "Parent item" to the ones that the user has access to but that's just a matter of filtering out the forbidden menus. I would like to avoid having to hack the menu module itself, so I am looking for a way to unhook and redefine menu_form_alter() in delegate_menu_admin. I don't want the module to have to rely on things like PECL modules (override_function() from APD is way too intrusive). Depending on other Drupal modules is an option but I'd rather avoid that too. So the question is, how do I override menu_form_alter() from another module? Regards, Leonard. -- mount -t life -o ro /dev/dna /genetic/research

D6 Programmatic creation of a custom content type with fields
by jeff＠ayendesigns.com 17 Jan '11

17 Jan '11

I find what seems to be two different approaches for creating fields for a custom content type via a module. One is from drewish, where the field is first added via cck manually, then dumped with var_export(content_fields()) and then added to the content type in the install via content_field_instance_create(). The other is in rfay's Example module, where Randy creates a table for the module in the install and inserts fields into it that are what cck would insert. I'm wondering if the latter removes the need for me to do all the node processing from my module. Also, my content type has one field (other than title and body) which is an image filefield with unlimited instances, and I'm thinking that that same method would have the field being handled by filefield and that the method in Example would require that I manage the _fid, _list and _data db content, etc., so if there's a reason why this would be a better way to do it, or why the first method wouldn't be, I'm missing it.

Re: [development] allowed memory size exhausted

Thanks all, It was a module causing this. Although I was surprised why a module related caching issue would be called in update.php The lighbox2 module was causing an abnormal size to be stored in the cache table, it seems this size is something around my memory limits which I should reduce now that the problem is solved (suggestions?). I did a quick search on the lighbox2 issues and found this, which details this issue. Word of caution, be careful if you're using imagecache with a large number of presets and lightbox2, it could potentially cripple your server. http://drupal.org/node/409354 Best Regards, > On Fri, Jan 14, 2011 at 6:39 PM, Zareef Ahmed <zareef(a)zareef.net> wrote: > >> To debug why your code is requesting this kind of memory you can try >> following steps. >> >> 1.

Drupal7 EntityFieldQuery Assistance
by Greenman 14 Jan '11

14 Jan '11

Hi Devs I would like some more eyes on my query. It is not producing the SQL I expect. Working with OG for D7, I am looking to select all the group users with a specific state. I would have expected this code to do what I wanted, but, it does not. I have attached the code and sql below. The SQL is the result of running the query on gid = 2 and states = 1. When run, I am getting results for both states 1 and 3. Anyone got any more insight ? Thanks very much Peter <code> $query = new EntityFieldQuery; $query ->entityCondition('entity_type', 'user') ->fieldCondition('group_audience', 'gid', $gid) ->fieldCondition('group_audience', 'state', (array) $states, 'IN'); </code> <sql> SELECT DISTINCT field_data_group_audience0.entity_type AS entity_type, field_data_group_audience0.entity_id AS entity_id, field_data_group_audience0.revision_id AS revision_id, field_data_group_audience0.bundle AS bundle FROM field_data_group_audience field_data_group_audience0 INNER JOIN field_data_group_audience field_data_group_audience1 ON field_data_group_audience1.entity_type = field_data_group_audience0.entity_type AND field_data_group_audience1.entity_id = field_data_group_audience0.entity_id WHERE ( field_data_group_audience0.group_audience_gid = '2' ) AND (field_data_group_audience1.group_audience_state IN ('1')) AND ( field_data_group_audience0.deleted = '0' ) AND ( field_data_group_audience0.entity_type = 'user' ) LIMIT 0 , 30 </sql> The output (slightly modified to add state), gives me this: entity_type state entity_id revision_id bundle user 1 1 1 user user 3 2 2 user Not sure if the formatting will hold, but, due to the joins, I am getting both states 1 and 3.

allowed memory size exhausted
by Ashraf Amayreh 14 Jan '11

14 Jan '11

Hello all, I've been working on this problem since two days without avail. I have a Drupal site that, for some reason or the other, tries to allocate more than 300 MB of memory on request calls to not only the index.php, but to files such as update.php. The server itself has three live sites and non of them is experiencing any problems. Also note that depending on which page I'm trying to access, I get a different stack trace. And as you can see below, none of them are passing through any custom modules... To get to the point, here's the error and the stack trace to update.php (one of possible backtraces with same problem), any hints or ideas are more than welcome.

Subsite
by nan wich 13 Jan '11

13 Jan '11

We have a copy of our pre-Drupal HTML site and would now like to resurrect a portion of it. Is it possible to have a plain HTML site as a sub-site of the Drupal site? I have done it the other way around, so I suspect it is possible. Are there any gotchas I need to be aware of (other than Apache redirects that have to be removed)?

Module proposal: Append ?XDEBUG_SESSION_START to all site URLs
by James Benstead 13 Jan '11

13 Jan '11

It's possible to initiate remote XDEBUG debugging sessions by appending ?XDEBUG_SESSION_START to a Drupal URL, as per: - http://robshouse.net/article/xdebug-komodo-and-acquia-drupal-stack-installer Does anyone have any objections to a module that does this automatically, and provides a block with a tick box that would effectively turn debugging mode on or off? Or is there a module that already provides this functionality? -- Jim -- James Benstead Development Director www.codeloom.net +44 (0) 7792 332558
