hook_user_operations permissions
by Steve Yelvington 30 Aug '10

30 Aug '10

I'm implementing a bulk user operation as described in sirkitree's blog post: http://sirkitree.net/node/23 I don't see anything in the hook_node_operations() docs that addresses permissions. I'd like to provide discrete control over whether my operation is available, rather than having it show up in every VBO view that happens to return users. Do I do that by having my implementation of hook_user_operations return a null array if the current user has no permissions? Or should I conditionally define my implementation of hook_user_operations depending on a user_access() call? Or am I missing some other option?

Drupal 7 API Change notification: Form, File, XMLRPC API changes
by Randy Fay 29 Aug '10

29 Aug '10

*We try to notify this list when API changes are made in Drupal 7, so contrib and custom developers have a chance to fix their code before they have the pain of figuring out why it's broken. *File, Form, and XMLRPC APIs changed recently: - (issue <http://drupal.org/node/763376>) If you use*#limit_validation_errors * in a multistep form, especially #limit_validation_errors = array(), your multistep form may now be broken. - (issue <http://drupal.org/node/846296>) If you do *file downloads*, there is a new access check regimen to use. hook_file_download_access() and hook_file_download_access_alter() have been added. - (issue <http://drupal.org/node/353458>) *hook_file_references*() was removed, and the entire method of managing references to managed files was changed and simplified. The summary is in http://drupal.org/node/353458#comment-3193206. If your code implements hook_file_references() or otherwise uses managed files, you'll want to take a look at this. - (issue <http://drupal.org/node/881536>) *xmlrpc*() function was changed. If your module uses xmlrpc(), it's broken until you fix it. Upgrade details are at http://drupal.org/update/modules/6/7#xmlrpc Thanks, -Randy -- Randy Fay Drupal Module and Site Development randy(a)randyfay.com +1 970.462.7450

Why would permissions not save?
by nan wich 27 Aug '10

27 Aug '10

I've never had this happen before. I just added a new function to an existing module. That function is called from a MENU_NORMAL_ITEM with a new permission for that item. The permissions list show the new permission, but checking the roles doesn't save it. Furthermore, check another box on an existing permission is not saving that either. The only things I have added recently is the External Links module and that should have nothing to do with it. Nancy Injustice anywhere is a threat to justice everywhere. -- Dr. Martin L. King, Jr.

Content Summary View from Revisioning Module
by Karyn Cassio 27 Aug '10

27 Aug '10

Hi Everyone, I did submit a question on the issue queue for Revisioning module, just thought maybe someone here might have some insight into this issue. I just enabled revisioning and all associated modules on our production server. When I went to views, the Content Summary view was missing. I've disabled it, uninstalled it, re-installed it, etc. And still no view. Prior to enabling it on production I had tested the configurations on both my localhost and staging servers, but when I pushed it to live, everything worked, except the view. Seems that under node: revision moderation is missing. So I can't even export the view from my other sites and import it to production. When I do that I get the following errors: * Field handler node.revision_moderation is not available. * Field handler node.number_of_revisions is not available. * Field handler node.state is not available. * Field handler node.revision_moderation is not available. * Field handler node.number_of_revisions is not available. * Field handler node.state is not available. * Unable to import view. Any help would be so appreciated. I thought as part of the install of revisioining module moderation is turned on and the elements of this view should be available. Thanks so much, Karyn

FWIW: using jQuery 1.4.2 (and jQuery-UI 1.8.2)
by Rob Koberg 27 Aug '10

27 Aug '10

Hi, I want/need to use jQuery 1.4.2 mostly because of the 'live' method (http://api.jquery.com/live/) This works fine for the most part. So far the only problem has been with Chaos Tools ajax-responder.js and the Page Manager. Even though ajax POST in Drupal.CTools.AJAX.clickAJAXLink returns with a status 200, the error handler is called. This is because the JSON returned is not valid and causes jQuery-1.4.2 to fail and produce the error (in 1.4.2 parseJSON needs a completely valid JSON string). To fix this I send the error call to the same handler for success (Drupal.CTools.AJAX.respond). I need to change the function to eval the responseText. Drupal.CTools.AJAX.respond = function(data) { if (data.responseText) { data = eval('(' + data.responseText + ')'); } for (i in data) { if (data[i]['command'] && Drupal.CTools.AJAX.commands[data[i]['command']]) { Drupal.CTools.AJAX.commands[data[i]['command']](data[i]); } } }; Is there a better way to handle this? best, -Rob

an interface for legacy Flash forms
by Rob Koberg 21 Aug '10

21 Aug '10

Hi, Unless I am doing something incorrect (spent the day on it), I can't get legacy Flash (swf) http form posts to be handled with Drupal. For example, we have a custom swf avatar builder. The swf, onsubmit, does a POST with a single parameter. (I don't have the source, but could legally decompile it and add extra fields(?) for the form identifiers, if that could help. I know less Flash than PHP) I was thinking the easiest way to go would be to make a simple interface: $DRUPAL/avatar.php <?php if (!empty($_POST)) { require_once './includes/bootstrap.inc'; drupal_bootstrap(DRUPAL_BOOTSTRAP_FULL); $account = $GLOBALS['user']; dd('save $account: ' . $account); $avatar_xml = $_POST['avatarXML'];// it is url encoded dd('save $avatar_xml: ' . $avatar_xml); } else { header('HTTP/1.1 405 Method Not Allowed'); } I get the log entries written and the parameter value, but I don't get a page user object. What I want to do in this case is save a single profile field value, 'profile_avatar_xml' which is added at registration time with default data. How can I get to the 'global $user;' (which I tried) object so I can set: $user->profile_avatar_xml = $_POST['avatarXML']; thanks, -Rob

user.module/user_register_submit and $merge_data['status']
by Rob Koberg 20 Aug '10

20 Aug '10

Hi, New to Drupal and relatively new to PHP. I have been working on a COPPA module to constrain the registration process on a non-profit site for young girls. COPPA is important because it is a legal requirement to slightly filter the usage of a web site by a person under 13 in the U.S (for any site that registers users). I have looked at and tried: http://drupal.org/project/coppa I don't see it doing much, or perhaps it is under documented? Anyway, I have two sets of users: * over 13: These users can register, get an email, and access the site right away * under 13: These users are initially blocked. At registration time, when it is determined they are under 13, a lightbox comes up with fields for the parent/guardian name, email and email confirm. So I want two different settings for their /admin/user/settings/Public registrations, blocked and not blocked. The code in user.module has: if (!$admin) { // Set the user's status because it was not displayed in the form. $merge_data['status'] = variable_get('user_register', 1) == 1; } I would like to have a way to block('administrator approval is required')/unblock('no administrator approval is required') the user based on age. I just use the "block('administrator approval is required')" as a way to reuse the admin user settings emails. Actually what happens is the parent is emailed an URL, and when they click it the user's status is set to 1. The only way I could see to do this (remember, newbie) was to change the above user.module code to: if (!$admin) { // Set the user's status because it was not displayed in the form. $merge_data['status'] = $form_state['status'] ? $form_state['status'] : variable_get('user_register', 1) == 1; } I realize this should not be in a site that does not control the $form_state['status'], but is there some cleaner way to do this without changing a base module? thanks, -Rob

Drupal 7 API Change notification: search_data, hook_search_page, drupal_placeholder
by Randy Fay 19 Aug '10

19 Aug '10

*We try to notify this list when API changes are made in Drupal 7, so contrib and custom developers have a chance to fix their code before they have the pain of figuring out why it's broken. **1. (issue <http://drupal.org/node/839524>) *Several Search APIs changed: - search_data() return value has changed to be a renderable array rather than rendered HTML - hook_search_page() return value has changed to be a renderable array rather than rendered HTML - theme('search_result') and theme('search_results') and their templates/processing functions now use a 'module' argument/variable in place of 'type' 2. (issue <http://drupal.org/node/885000>) drupal_placeholder() now takes a string as an argument instead of an array. Thanks, -Randy
