glossary.module alphabar
by Cheryl Chase 19 Oct '06

19 Oct '06

I'm running glossary.module, with the following version: // $Id: glossary.module,v 1.88.2.2 2005/04/14 17:19:16 frodo Exp $ Drupal 4.6.1, 2005-06-01 It generates an alphabar that has digit links, but they are in a strange order; the "0" is between "g" and "h", and the other digits follow, rather than precede, the letters. Here's the bar that is generated: a | b | c | d | e | f | g | 0 | h | i | j | k | l | m | n | o | p | q | r | s | t | u | v | w | x | y | z | 1 | 2 | 3 | 4 | 5 | 6 | 7 | 8 | 9 Anyone know why this happens, or how to fix it? Thanks, Cheryl

how to get back to admin
by John Hannfield 19 Oct '06

19 Oct '06

I've installed drupal, replaced the front page, and removed the login box. I can log in as admin at example.com/user/admin But I never see the overall admin page, with the menu options down the side for the different parts I can admin. I need to specify them manually on the URL like example.com/admin/settings example.com/admin/modules etc How do I get back up one level, to see the overall admin list page? example.com/admin doesn't do it. Thanks -- John

Re: [support] accessibility of drupal sites

hi Greg, I do agree, bottom line is that people will make what they will make. at least we should try to keep drupal official themes and code adherent to accessibility issues.

FormAPI, multiple versions of a form on the same page
by Anders 18 Oct '06

18 Oct '06

I'm creating a module which adds a rating form to all comments, much like the mediumvote/simplevote, except that I wan't to use a form instead of links to submit the ratings. The problem I'm having is when several comments are displayed on the page, all having a rating form, only the first form works as expected. I guess it's makes sense since they all have the same form_id, and I haven't found a way to alter the id. I'm sure there are some clever ways of solving this with the formAPI, any tips or pointers to modules already doing this (both for 4.7 and 5.0 are welcome)? Here is my form code (short version) which gets inserted to the comment with drupal_get_form('mymodule_rate_form', $record). function mymodule_rate_form($record) { $form['options'] = array( '#type' => 'select', '#options' => array(NULL => t(''), 1 => t('good'), 2 => t('bad')), ); $form['cid'] = array( '#type' => 'value', '#value' => $record['cid'], ); $form['submit'] = array( '#type' => 'submit', '#value' =>t('Rate'), ); return $form; } And the code to submit the form: function mymodule_rate_form_submit($form_id, $form_values) { $cid = $form_values['cid']; $value = $form_values['options']; //Do some voting here } Thanks, Anders

User roles not saving
by Kobus Myburgh 18 Oct '06

18 Oct '06

Hi, I have a weird issue in Drupal 4.7.3. My user roles aren't saving when I assign roles to them. I have, for example, user Erich, and he must get role Webmaster. I edit his account, and assign the role, but the information is not saved. I have checked the database - as far as I can tell everything is working fine. The Users table has the account Erich (obviously) and the Roles table has the role Webmaster (also obvious). But users_roles table remains empty when saving the user's account. I checked the sequences table, and saw that there is no role_rid entry there - not sure if that could be the cause of the problem? Should I add it? node_nid and user_uid is there, so I assume it should be safe to add? Will it help? Anyone any other ideas where I can continue my search for this problem? Thanks in advance! Kobus

Re: [support] Form elements displaying as block - want inline
by Nathaniel Catchpole 17 Oct '06

You could try making a new input format - which doesn't filter html, and also doesn't use the line break filter.

Re: [support] support Digest, Vol 46, Issue 13
by Joe Murray 16 Oct '06

What's the status of volunteer module? Is there a maintainer? There's no 4.7 version, and I just installed the cvs version and it seems a bit buggy, with documentation not updated from 4.6. I'm interested in the volunteer admin/ coordinator stuff, which isn't replicated by RSVP. Is CivicSpace going to put out an update now that CSOD is launching?

Form elements displaying as block - want inline
by Jody Cleveland 15 Oct '06

15 Oct '06

Hello, I've got a drupal 4.7.3 site, and I've got a page where I'm inserting html for a form. For this form, I'd like the radio buttons to display inline. No matter what I do, drupal forces them to display as block. Also, hidden elements show up as empty space, so it looks goofy. Here's my form: http://beta.menashalibrary.org/catalog I have a static template on my computer I used to test the form. It points to the stylesheets used on the site, and everything displays fine. But, once I paste the form code into drupal, it messes up the formatting. It does the same thing if I create a block. Any ideas what may be causing this to happen? Here's the html: <div id="searchbox"> <script language="JavaScript"></script> <form name="search_footer" action="http://webcat.winnefox.org/web2/tramp2.exe/do_authority_search/g uest" method="get" enctype="application/x-www-form-urlencoded"> <input type="hidden" name="SETTING_KEY" value="Menasha" /> <input type="hidden" name="location_group_filter" value="all" /> <input type="hidden" name="servers" value="1home" /> <label for="author"><input name="index" type="radio" value="au" id="author" />Author</label> <label for="title"><input name="index" type="radio" value="ti" id="title" />Title</label> <label for="subject"><input name="index" type="radio" value="su" id="subject" />Subject</label></p> <input type="text" name="query" value="" />   <input type="image" src="http://www.greenlakelibrary.org/fileadmin/images/search.gif" value="" style="vertical-align:bottom;" alt="search catalog" width="58" height="18" vspace="1" border="0" /> </form> </div> And, here's the css: #searchbox { color: #000; background-color: transparent; width: 520px; margin: 20px 0 50px 15px; padding: 0; font-size: .9em; } #searchbox p { line-height: 1.5em; } #searchbox form { margin: 20px 20px; padding: 10px; border: thin dashed #ccc; } Thank you so much for any help you can give me on this! - jody

Re: [support] Any way to manually turn off maintenance mode?

Here's some more detail in case your unfamiliar with mysql. Here's the mysql example. mysql -u <yourdrupaluser> -p <yourdrupaldatabase> You'll be prompted for your drupal users databse password. Your drupal user and drupal database comes from the site settings.php file. then you'd see a prompt like this: mysql> That's where you type the command. quit to exit If you don't have command line access you'll need to run this query using a tool like phpmyslqadmin or some such tool.
