plain php themes and i18 module
by Mohammed al-shar' 15 Mar '06

15 Mar '06

hello. is it possible to translate the primary links when using one of the plain php themes? if so, what is the plain php themes variable for the primary links? to make myself clearer, I would put 'phptemplate_primary_links', in the setting.php file if I want to define the primary links for the php template themes. thanks. mohammed.

RE: [support] Access control of PHP code

Perhaps, I misunderstand the question, but if you go to administer -> input formats, you should be able to control which roles can post content for a specific input filter. This code is available in 4.6. You need the Administer filters permission to change this behaviour. Is that what you were looking for?

Perhaps I should work on porting my sites over to 4.7 now (how close to a release are we?) . I'm worried that the modules I need won't be ported yet. But perhaps porting mods would be a good way to learn the framework. -- [ Drupal support list | http://lists.drupal.org/ ]

Multisite - shared users/profiles, different roles?
by Laura Scott 15 Mar '06

15 Mar '06

I am looking at a project involving over a dozen sub-sites. The main site will have accumulated content (and I assume I'll use agg2 for that) and the sub-sites will have their own content, own admins, own bloggers, etc. Ideally, people could register on one site and be registered for all sites. But they would have user roles only as appropriate for the site they're on. In other words, someone on Site A with blogging permissions is also registered on Sites B, C, D... but without blogging permissions. Same with admins. I am contemplating a multisite install with: shared tables - users - profile - ? unique tables per site - users_roles - roles ...and everything else Questions: Am I looking for trouble going this way? Are there other tables I will need to share (e.g., sessions, cache)? Are there other pitfalls to this hybrid multisite approach I should watch out for? Can you suggest alternative approaches? (I'm looking at SXIP, but it seems to be overkill for what we're after. Anyone?) Any insights, experiences, warnings, anecdotes appreciated! Thanks!

In the Theme Developers Handbook, this last kind of template is called a "Plain PHP Theme". Documentation about how they are developed is at: http://drupal.org/node/11795 Dave ________________________________ From: support-bounces(a)drupal.org [mailto:support-bounces@drupal.org] On Behalf Of Mohammed al-shar' Sent: Wednesday, March 15, 2006 1:48 AM To: support(a)drupal.org Subject: [support] php based themes dear all, hello. I noticed that there are some themes made to work with the xtemplate engine in versions prior to 4.7, another type that works with the phptemplate engine, the default for 4.7 and smart theme engine. yet, some themes like Goofy, Slash, etc. are php based themes, the file that sets the layout in them is a file called file.theme before I go on with what I want to achieve, can anybody explain the last type to me, and tell me where it relates? thanks. mohammed.

Is there a way to make it so that only Admins (or some other role) can post php code?

Re: [support] Menu item to outside URL
by Bruce Whealton 14 Mar '06

14 Mar '06

It occurred to me that each custom menu is a block. So, one could write xhtml code to create a menu of their own, by creating a new block. I'm not sure how to tell a block not to print/display it's title. Interesting idea though. Makes me think of the main Navigation menu. Can one change the title to Main menu instead of it displaying your username? Bruce Carl Parrish <cparrish(a)pcl-consulting.com> wrote: Bruce Whealton wrote: > Menu items are setup as blocks.

I may do that until I can rewrite the menu mod to allow me to go to outside sites (or upgrade to 4.7). My conserns are 1) can't get it in nice menus that way. 2) will I be able to style just one block different than the others? (ie how do I make it so that the Title of the block, and *only* this block, isn't printed?) ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ Word Salad Poetry Magazine - join us online at: http://wordsalad.net/ and also -> Check out the Buffy the Vampire Slayer writing Street Exposure - Street Newspaper http://wordsalad.net/StreetExposure/ Bruce Whealton - Webmaster/Designer/publisher/Writer http://trianglewebservices.com/ ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ --------------------------------- Yahoo!

questions
by Mohammed al-shar' 13 Mar '06

13 Mar '06

hello all. 1st, once drupal 4.7 becomes a reality, will version 4.65 still be supported? and for how long? what is the policy. 2nd, I see that drupal already is a powerful platform and has been maintained for long, yet, I must say I don't like the attitude of some of the core developers "if you don't like it, creat it" or something of the sort. I am saying this because, we drupal users deserve to get basic functionality available in drupal, like a web-link directory, a more secure guestbook, a faq, etc. not all of us know how to code modules. 3d, is there a way we could make the registration to drupal based sites more secure, mainly by making users have to activate their accounts via email, like most other cms? please, don't say captcha. thanks in advance. mohammed.

Show/hide block on front page according to language
by Erik Wessel-Berg 11 Mar '06

11 Mar '06

Hi I'm setting up a bilingual (Norwegian/English) site with Drupal 4.6.5. I have some blocks that should show or hide depending on language. An English block is configured to show only on pages en/* and Norwegian to show only on no/*. This works well for all pages except the front page when "Default Front Page" is set to "node". When I specify a particular node as the front page, the blocks show/ hide correctly according to language. The front page i set to be language dependent in i18n-settings. I guess the question is: how do I specify a block to show on a Norwegian front page and not on the English front page when the front page i set to "node"? Any ideas? --erik
