admin backdoor/ "simple mode" ?
by dc 06 Dec '05

06 Dec '05

hi - I turned on the the i18n module with drupal4.6, and now get the following msg every time i access my site. so since this error comes up immediately, there seems no way to actually get into "admin mode" on the site and then turn the module off... is there something like a "safe mode" or way to turn off modules for example with a config file? or can someone give me a clue where to look in the DB to turn this off? thanks!

RE: [support] Versioning/Undelete
by Metzler, David 06 Dec '05

Drupal can certainly be configured to track multiple revisions of a node. This is baseline functionality, configurable on a per content type basis. You simply enable "save as new version" in content type configuration screen. (this is the same place where you control defaults for publishing to front page, etc). I would recommend looking at the "diff" module which will show you comparisons between different versions of a node. The undelete functionality is missing as far as I know, but you could get a similar functionality by "unpublishing" rather than deleting a document. It's really not the same functionality that you're talking about, but I thought you might want to think about it. I'm not sure how this would behave when there was a prior "published" version. you might get an older version instead (would have to be tested).

Drupal 4.6.4 - bug?
by Dominik Składanowski 06 Dec '05

06 Dec '05

Hello list, after upgrade to Drupal 4.6.4 I've noticed that linking news from RSS aggregator to blog (when you click on a small blue icon [b]) has a bug. Plese look at this screen (red mark in URL): http://dominik.skladanowski.net/_/drupal.png It looks like *&* from the URL is changing on *&* (HTML notation). Isn't it wrong use of htmlspecialchars()? Kind regards. -- ____________________________________________________________________ D o m i n i k S k ł a d a n o w s k i e-mail: dominik(a)skladanowski.net www: http://dominik.skladanowski.net/

Hi, The only way I managed to do this before is to: 1. Use PHPMyAdmin to disable the module; and/or 2. To log in to FTP and delete the module file.

File Revisioning Like ExponentCMS
by Kevin Schultz 06 Dec '05

06 Dec '05

Hello everyone, I would like to implement file revisioning on my web site in a similar fashion to Exponent CMS (see attached file). To summarize, Exponent allows users to download a file, and then upload a file to replace the current file. When the file is replaced, a revision is made. If desired, the user may lock the file so no one else may edit it while they perform edits. The file is also given a title which does not change regardless of the underlying file name. This has worked very well for maintaining our organization's membership list on-line. One person performs maintenance on membership data, and another person uses the Excel file to print out labels for mailing newsletters. Does any one have ideas on how to replicate this functionality in Drupal? The locking functionality is not important, but the other functionality is "would be nice." Sincerely, Kevin

Hi, I can create nodes with several node types (page, book ..I havent tested all) without entering anything under 'body' even though it is a required field (and has a red asterisk) how does the 'required' logic work? I ask because 'title' works correctly..it doesnt let a node to be submitted unless the title is filled -v
