URL changes in 4.7
by Alejandro Exojo 26 Jun '06

26 Jun '06

Hi. I am very worried about upgrading my site to 4.7, and the (complete?) drop of the "base" element in this version. I agree that "base" is not perfect, and I am suffering 404 errors in my logs, so a fix is welcome. I copied the site installation to my local machine, and but I still have two problems: 1. Most URLs are broken. It seems the update.php has some rules to change URLs written by users in nodes and comments, but here it didn't worked. The script forgets to change URLs written like this: <a href="./foo/bar">something</a> So here, all my links in the content are broken. I think I can do something passing sed to a database dump, but still is a horrible pain. 2. The site is a lot less flexible. Say I have my drupal installation in example.net/, and before I do a real upgrade, or while I'm testing a theme, I copy it to my local machine, and I do the changes there. The site is now in localhost/drupal. It worked just fine in 4.6 or previous, but if URLs now are always absolute, a setup like this will not work anymore. Or I am missing something? I am very surprised by this, because there is no explanation in UPGRADING.txt, nor in the update.php text, nor in the 4.7.0 announcement, and in the new settings.php is written that $base_url the variable is optional, but I have it uncommented, and I don't see any changes. :-( Any suggestions are welcome. Thanks. -- Alex (a.k.a. suy) - GPG ID 0x0B8B0BC2 http://barnacity.net/ - Jabber ID: suy(a)bulmalug.net

What is the problem here? In MS IE the vote button doesn't show in the poll block display, yet in Firefox the vote button is shown. Take a look http://www.clnews.org/drupal/?q=node With Respect and Cheers, Tony Budak

A Few Questions
by Hershel Robinson 26 Jun '06

26 Jun '06

1 A site I am working on has a weekly schedule (like a radio station) and we want that when a visitor comes to the site, he will automatically see that day's schedule, with links of course to the other 6 days. The weekly schedule doesn't really change much, aside from the occasional special event. Is there a module that can handle this? 2 Regarding forums, I only see modules to integrate other php forum packages into Drupal--is this the standard method of building forums ona Drupal site? Thank you, Hershel Robinson -- Gallery Robinson Web Services http://galleryrobinson.com/

Nodes do not show in normal view (I can still edit them and summary shows)
by Erik Steffl 26 Jun '06

26 Jun '06

all my nodes are gone, the main text (the book pages, forum articles etc., everything). everything else seems OK, all modules seems to be working, I can even edit the nodes (so they are not lost), they show in summary mode (e.g. on front page). it's kinda weird, just look at frontpage and click on any item and see it's not shown: http://zasran.com/ (example of node: http://zasran.com/drupal/?q=node/16) not sure how this happened, it was working before, the only related change was a drupal security update (not sure what that did, I used debian package). any ideas? my system: debian unstable drupal 4.5.8-1.1 (that's the latest in debian) (I know I should upgrade but I was hoping debian package will be updated...) erik

I am thinking of upgrading to Drupal 4.7 but am concerned that the theme I'm using, Green Marinée, hasn't yet been updated. I did a quick search and it appears that there was talk of updating it but the latest release is 4.6.0. Does anyone know if/when such an update will take place? TIA Sue

Drupal-Postgres-LDAP-FreeBSD
by David King 24 Jun '06

My name is David King, I am having trouble with LDAP users logging on I have a very vanilla Drupal (v4.6.6) install, except that it is installed on Postgres, I have the LDAP authentication module installed, and it is installed on FreeBSD (all three are installed via the FreeBSD Ports system).

Module updates
by Grand Junction 22 Jun '06

22 Jun '06

Hi, I was wondering if there were any plans to set up RSS feeds from the module pages (or email subscriptions), so we'd know when modules had updates? I have seven or eight modules set up on some of my sites, and wish there were any easy way to track all of their updates. Or is something like that already set up and I just don't know about it? Thanks, Matthew O'Malley __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Tired of spam? Yahoo! Mail has the best spam protection around http://mail.yahoo.com
