RE: [support] news and annoucements page?
by Metzler, David 30 Jan '06

30 Jan '06

I don't think you need flexi-node (although I find flexinode to be one of the most useful modules out there) "story" content types can be used to do this. I think this is just the default "node" page showing the submitted "stories". Probably the "Path" module is used to rename "node" to "news". Taxonomy module is likely used to provide navigation. Pretty out of the can drupal. -----Original Message----- From: support-bounces(a)drupal.org [mailto:support-bounces@drupal.org] On Behalf Of Jiann-Ming Su Sent: Sunday, January 29, 2006 3:30 PM To: support(a)drupal.org Subject: [support] news and annoucements page? How do I create a news and annoucements page similar to http://drupal.org/news? Do I need to create a custom node type using flexinode?

Distributed authentication not working
by Glenn Yonemitsu 30 Jan '06

30 Jan '06

Hello, everyone. I have maindomain.com with a drupal setup. I also have seconddomain.com running with the same core files as maindomain.com. However, there are no apache setup for this multi-domain setup. Instead, I changed my DNS entries so seconddomain.com will send everything to maindomain.com without changing the headers (that tells drupal that the site is seconddomain.com). So now, I activated the drupal modules and entered enough site information for both installations. I setup the cron jobs, and they go off every hour using cron-lynx.sh. Both also point the xml-rpc server to maindomain.com/xmlrpc.php. I cannot log into maindomain.com with user(a)seconddomain.com nor with user(a)www.seconddomain.com. Same with the reverse direction. I searched everywhere for some additional information that might be needed, but I cannot find any. Hope somebody out there can help me out. Thanks in advance.

Can't Access Modules!?
by Jiann-Ming Su 30 Jan '06

30 Jan '06

I've been working on a site today. Everything seems to be going well. But, all of a sudden, when I try to Administer->Modules, the page comes back blank. I was installing, enabling, and disabling modules just earlier without problems. Now, I just get a blank page for http://my_drupal_site/admin/modules. All the other administrative links seem to work. I did find the following in the httpd error_log: Allowed memory size of 8388608 bytes exhausted (tried to allocate 64 bytes) What did I do wrong? -- Jiann-Ming Su "I have to decide between two equally frightening options.

Disable category display on nodes
by Tim Vaughan 29 Jan '06

29 Jan '06

Hi, I'm using Drupal 4.6.x with a modified version of the Bluemarine theme. I want to use the taxonomy module to let me sort content and create blocks that list nodes of each category. However, I don't want the category type to be visible at all on each node. Ideally, the taxonomy module would be an invisble "behind the scenes" feature that would help administration and not be visible to users. I tried removing the:  <span class="taxonomy">{taxonomy}</span>  from xtemplate.xtmpl but that gave the following error: [XTemplate] parse: blockname [node.taxonomy] does not exist in /home/mylogin/public_html/themes/engines/xtemplate/xtemplate.inc on line 418. I also tried setting the css as follows: .node .taxonomy { color: #999; font-size: 0.8em; padding: 1.5em; display: none; } but the category was still visible. I can't find an option to disable category display in the admin menu. Is this possible? What's the best way to accomplish it? Tim

flush() in aggregator2
by John Vandenberg 29 Jan '06

29 Jan '06

Hi, When I refresh a feed using admin/aggregator2/refresh/<nid> this error appears in the log: Cannot modify header information - headers already sent in /home/scm/drupal/DRUPAL-4-6/drupal/includes/common.inc on line 192 When I comment out the flush() in the aggregator2 module, line 1136, the problem disappears, and there doesn't appear to be any side effects. Afaics there is nothing to flush, as later on drupal_goto() works fine. Any ideas on what the problem could be? I'm running FC3 + httpd-2.0.52-3.1 + php-4.3.11-2.7 + drupal 4.6.tip and.aggregator2 module 1.31.2.1 -- John

Problems Adding New Blocks in 4.6.5
by Jiann-Ming Su 28 Jan '06

28 Jan '06

I'm trying to add new blocks. I was able to add one and enable it. For some reason, that's the only one I've been able to add. When I try adding another, and click on "Save block", the list of available blocks comes back, but the new block isn't listed. I'm even given a "The new block has been added" message. I didn't have this problem when I was testing 4.5.x. What am I doing wrong? -- Jiann-Ming Su "I have to decide between two equally frightening options.

Problem adding aliases
by Dominik Składanowski 28 Jan '06

28 Jan '06

Hello list, I have 2 installation of Drupal 4.6.5. One of them is fresh installation and second one is an upgrade from 4.6.3 -> 4.6.4 -> 4.6.5 In both cases I have enabled clean URL (mod_rewrite works fine). But in the upgraded installation I can't create aliases. There is no field where I could give my own alias. In the fresh installation I can manage aliases without any problem. Regards. -- ____________________________________________________________________ D o m i n i k S k ł a d a n o w s k i

Re: [support] User contact
by Kobus Myburgh 26 Jan '06

Bruce, I don't know what else to tell you. Hopefully someone else can help you, or perhaps I can check it out in your site admin (you'll have to give me an account though with some priviledges)? Kobus >>> brucewhealton(a)yahoo.com 1/26/2006 3:59:12 PM >>> It is selected or enabled. I tried logging in as user 2 and enabling User Profile but it still does not have the option for Contact User. Even from the Admin account, there isn't a means to contact the user, as there should be. I should see the contact button or tab for that user when I am logged in as admin. So, it should be there. Logically it makes sense what you said and what I'm seeing logically does not make sense. But, for some reason even with Personal Contact Form enabled, it does not let me contact that user. Confused and frustrated, Bruce Kobus Myburgh <itbjdm(a)puknet.puk.ac.za> wrote: Bruce, In your user's profile, you will have to enable personal contact form for that account. Administrator can contact that user perfectly, because user 1 has that access regardless of whether that option is activated or not. Just check the "Personal Contact Form" checkbox in user 2's profile. Regards, Kobus >>> brucewhealton(a)yahoo.com 1/24/2006 4:23:50 PM >>> Hi. I'm having a problem allowing a user to be able to receive email from the site, to be contacted. I setup a user name of Editors for an online publication. The user is given permissions for more than one role, as is another member. When I'm logged in as admin, I cannot send an email to this user. When I select that user, the contact tab does not appear. Strangely, I can contact myself, as the admin, where it would be from admin to admin. But user/2/contact gives a message of access denied. Any idea why that would happen? I had thought the direct link of user/2/contact was a problem in going directly to the contact form but even selecting user then selecting the username, brings up a page that lacks a tab for contact. I want to have simple links such as Contact Us, to contact the admins, or publishers, or send an email to the editors... When a user selects such a custom menu item they go directly to the form for sending the message/email. That can be done, correct?
