Over at http://drupal.org/node/164983 we're trying to add documentation to every table and field in the schema structure. Schema.module uses this to print a cross-linked description of every table. Who wants to demonstrate their master of Drupal-dom by telling us what these table columns are for? node_type.modified permission.tid users.mode users.sort users.threshold If this seems like fun, feel free to grab one of the few remaining modules whose tables are undocumented. Instructions are in the issue. openid profile search system Thanks! Barry

A very laudable effort!

node_type.modified
wtf? This one is too recent for me. :p
permission.tid
This one has been there for ages. I don't recall any real use, it should be dropped. All 0 on d.o.
users.mode users.sort users.threshold
These are/were used by comment.module to store user preferences. Probably can be dropped too, they are all 0 on d.o for all users.

These can't be dropped - if the Comment Options is enabled, then they're used for that.

http://barcelona2007.drupalcon.org/node/428 has the comment controls on.

Me too.

Yay for ancient bugs. NK

users.mode stores the comment display mode in the case that you allow each user to set their own (e.g. threaded vs. flat, etc). node_type.modified is intially FALSE, and then is set to TRUE in function node_type_form_submit(), so it seems to be a flag to indicate that the user has edited the node type. It's not clear that it's actually used anywhere. -Peter On 9/14/07, Barry Jaspan <barry@jaspan.org> wrote:

Revision 1.60 - (view) (download) (annotate) - [select for diffs] Sun Apr 28 08:55:00 2002 UTC (5 years, 4 months ago) by dries Branch: MAIN Changes since 1.59: +39 -18 lines Diff to previous 1.59 - Rewrote role management, splitting the table in two. There are no improvements right now, but this patch will help me adding support for taxonomy-based permissions. Contributed by Marco. http://cvs.drupal.org/viewvc.py/drupal/drupal/modules/user.module?hideattic=... I guess taxonomy based permissions never happened but tid lingered. I guess if 64 months were not enough to realize it then it won't happen just now. Drop it.

That is bad ass old, and enough reason to drop it. :) -- Dries Buytaert :: http://www.buytaert.net/
