Script to change collation on all mysql tables?
by Anisa 06 Dec '06

06 Dec '06

A lot of people, upgrading from 4.6 to 4.7, or having phpmyadmin issues, are interested in a script or some sort of file that will change the collation to utf8_general_ci on all tables. Anyone have any ideas? I want to add it to the handbook. I think it would be pretty easy to make a sql thingy for default tables, how do you deal with prefixes? Anisa. OOO! How about a list of tablenames in the handbook... -- ********************************* www.AnimeCards.Org 16,000 scans and counting! *********************************

How to get last item in secondary menu to not have border on right?
by Jody Cleveland 02 Sep '06

02 Sep '06

Hello, I've got a drupal site here: http://www.wals.lib.wi.us/drupal On the secondary links menu at the top right, in my stylesheet, I have it setup so each link has a border on the right to separate each link. Is there a way to make drupal drop that border for whichever link is last in the menu? - jody

Array as string in forum module
by Nick Holden 31 Aug '06

31 Aug '06

Hi all, I don't understand why this is a problem only for me - no sign of it on the web anywhere... In the forum module of my 4.7.3 install I have been hitting problems with the forum when creating or editing containers and forums. Two errors were common: [] operator not supported for strings... and in_array(): Wrong datatype for second argument in forum.module Tracing these in the module, they appear to relate to the use of the $containers variable in the forum_form_submit function: if ($container) { $containers = variable_get('forum_containers'), array ()); $containers[] = $form_values['tid']; variable_set('forum_containers',$containers) } This appears to be setting the $containers variable to a string datatype and then trying to treat it as an array. I added [] to the first definition of $containers and it now works OK. Have I misunderstood something? Nick

Noob question: publishing to a main page like node
by Jonathan 30 Aug '06

30 Aug '06

Hi, Sorry for the noob question, but I'm new to Drupal and haven't been using it for too long and I can't find answer to this. I would like to create a page that is similar to the main page in that I can have a list of story (node) teasers linking to the full story (node). I'd like to have the option when creating stories and other content to be able to publish to this new page instead of the main page. How would I create such a page? Is there a module that I can use that would allow me to do this? Could someone please point me in the right direction? Thank you!

multisite
by VJ Rao 30 Aug '06

Hi, If I want to share users and data across multiple sites (If there is any need for control, I plan to use TAC) ..which tables should I create as unique for each website (i.e with prefix)? I can think of 'variable' . Does any other table need a prefix? If not, I can just do : $db_prefix = array( 'default' => '', 'variable' => 'site1_' ); in sites/site1/settings.php.. right? Regards, V p.s I dont use left navigation

If you want multiple "lists" of nodes, you really need the views module. Then you can construct several different views of your data based on many different criteria. Usually this is best used in conjunction with "categories" to assign (or not) a node to one of these views.

Re: [support] Drupal vs. Mambo/Joomla

Hi, What looks good to some is not necessarily good for others, and what looks bland to you, may be actually quite nice. If the sites listed here [1] and here [2] and here [3] and here[4] are bland in your opinion, then perhaps you'd be better off making your own. Note that not all these theme are available for download, some of them are only sites spotted that looked good in the submitter/site owner's opinion.

The specifics are the following... I need a forum and a customisable registration form/login and also an easy to use GUI. However the most important part of all of this is that I have to be able to make templates easily...... Now what I needed to know is whethere there are any good looking Drupal sites out there.. the ones I have come across look bland... I have used drupal and have to admit it is superior in handling of information in terms of management e.t.c. however I have found that in terms of appearance and useablitity Joomla/Mambo tend to look better... Is there any way around this?

PHP 4 or 5?
by C. R. Oldham 29 Aug '06

29 Aug '06

Greetings, I was a PHP user from way, way back when it was still known as PHP/Fi. Various things have taken me away from it, but I am now going to migrate some of my work to Drupal. I am having trouble making the choice between PHP 4 and PHP 5. I use Debian, but often roll my own packages or use www.backports.org. Can someone with more recent experience than I comment on what pitfalls I might face if I choose 5? --cro
