(Please cc: clift(a)e-democracy.org with your reply. Thanks.)
The other week folks from the BeNeighbors.org initiative of my
non-profit had a great discussion with the Twin Cities Drupal Users
group.
The focus was on how Drupal could be used to connect nearest neighbors
for all sorts of community goodness (like 80% of them on a block or
two including those not online at all or regularly).
Anyway, three main approaches came out of the meeting:
1. Multi-tech Small Group (Leverage VOIP Drupal)
2. Dynamic Geo-Based Local Messaging/Alerts - Proximity Connecting
3. Map/Directory to Distributed Groups Near You
So before we go too far down the road, I was interested in any
connections with existing Drupal modules, projects, or developer
communities.
So:
A. Are there any Drupal groups or projects that you know of who are
developing tools for block level connections (like 100 households)? I
haven't been able to find them so far. An example might be using
Drupal to support neighborhood crime watch.
B. Is there an existing module effort to support geo-coding of the
street addresses (or mobile place for that matter) of Drupal site
members? What about group messaging based on proximity? (What I like
about this idea is that it would work on a global online community as
well as something hyper local because enabling the X closest members
with the topic initiator determining who gets the alert be it 10, 100
or 1000 closest members scales.)
C. We are looking for examples of Drupal sites designed to be
directories with both "select an area" and pin point options to tie an
item to a map. Any suggestions? (Our goal here is to distribute the
directory data collection and end up with a nice public-friendly map
of where neighbors are connecting online and how to find them.)
D. Who in the Drupal community do you know who might be interested in
collaborating on these themes? (We are open to creating a Group on the
Drupal site, but would rather not re-create the wheel if we do not
need to do so.)
Thanks,

Try this again just in case...
I have a few line item scripts that all happen on the checkout page. The
one that is giving trouble is a coupon line item.
* All line items are being saved to the database, as should be with
hook-order.
* All line items display, as they should but the tax is incorrect.
* In admin/store/settings/taxes/1/edit I have a tax set up with a
couple of rules.
o These should have no bearing: one being the state for the tax
and another being a user role (wholesalers are not taxed) .
o Tax is applied to the Coupon line item on this page, as well as
to the products.
o I also set the Coupon line item type as taxable.
It is correct on the checkout page(it is written in real time with
line_item_add JS...
However, when I output the order to screen in the uc_tax module... my
line items aren't in the order yet.
I am using hook order with the $op of "save".
So I tried playing with line item weights: to try to get the total line
item after my coupon.
If I use the following, it throws a fatal error on the review page load.
static $lines;
$lines = module_invoke_all('line_item', NULL); // this produces the
names in the next array to which I added weights...
Actually re-ordered them. I think "total" was 2nd or 3rd.
$l_item_ids = array(
'subtotal' => 0,
'generic' =>1,
'coupon' => 2,
'free_offer' => 3,
'shipping' => 4,
'handling' => 5,
'total' => 6
);
foreach( $lines as $i => $line ){
foreach($l_item_ids as $id => $weight){
if( $id === $line['id'] ){
$lines[$i]['weight'] = $weight;
// uc_li_tax_subtotal_weight
// variable_set('uc_line_items_'. $lines[$i]['id']
.'_weight', $weight);
}
}
}
So nothing is working and I have no idea where to turn.
Seems like line item weights would be taken into consideration. Hints
anyone?

one that is giving trouble is a coupon line item.
*
The line item is being saved to the database, as it should be with

*
All line items display, as they should on the confirm page, and
charge properly, but the tax is incorrect.

o
Tax is applied to the Coupon line item on this configuration
page, as well as to the products. These are the only
applications of the tax.
Whether I store a negative value or positive, it doesn't affect the tax
that is calculated. It is always calculated on the subtotal, which is
the total of the products. This includes visiting the confirmation page
and going "back".
Tax should be calculated on the subtotal minus the coupon amount.
My only clue is that Ubercart Taxes might expect line items before the
checkout page??? (All my line items are written on submit of the
checkout page, before the confirm page.
Should I write my line items on the checkout page with AJAX? That
doesn't even make sense in the light of how hook_order is written.
Sure appreciate any help if there is anyone who has a clue. This is a
production site and I wouldn't blame my client for getting antsy.

I am sure I don't want to intercept all possible uploads; just the uploads from this specific content type. So, can I define a file upload hook which is scoped to this specific content type? I haven't seen anything that makes me believe I can. Can I create a custom file field to use any time I need to perform a conversion? Can my custom file field "extend" the existing file field, so I don't have to port improvements/bugfixes to my custom file field version?

First look turns up this: Chris: though I have not done an
implementation, seems likely...

Let us know how it went. I have considered doing the same.

Hi,
How can I control the overlay's parent window url from my custom module code?
I'm inside a node form and I want to change the destination of the parent window without leaving the current overlay.
Basic scenario:
- node/%/edit is displayed in overlay
- user hit's submit
- form is rebuild, user stays in the overlay but I want to make sure that once he closes the overlay (without any further form submission) he will be seeing a specific page
I can't seem to find a way to do this. When I try to use the $form_state['redirect'] property with an array(url, array('fragment'=> '...')) then the fragment get's stripped, see this post:
http://stackoverflow.com/questions/7691460/using-fragment-in-drupal-7-form-…
Is there any way I can control the parent windows url from inside my module? By setting an undocumented javascript setting maybe?
thanks and best regards,
hadubard

What is going to be the best way to handle the removal of call time
pass-by-reference as noted at
http://www.php.net/manual/en/migration54.incompatible.php?
This affects a lot of code. Based on http://drupal.org/node/1498574
D8 will not be ready for PHP 5.4 but some WAMP and LAMP are already
delivering it. My query here though is more looking at preparing for
any new modules or converting older modules and getting them ready for
PHP 5.4. How do others plan to handle this offensive change?
