The best place to edit the node title?
by Augustin (Beginner) 14 Sep '07

14 Sep '07

Hello, Where is the best place for a module/theme to edit the node title? I would like to prepend the node type to the title input by the user. I have custom node types created with hook_*(). I tried to set $node->title in hook_view(), but it doesn't affect anything. Changing the node title at the theme level seems a bit clumsy: too much php and sql queries would be needed there. Where do you handle this? Thanks, Augustin. -- http://www.wechange.org/ Because we and the world need to change. http://www.reuniting.info/ Intimate Relationships, peace and harmony in the couple.

I'm trying to get the successful login page to redirect to other pages than the uesr profile page - but the menu item says "locked" and I can't find a setting for it. Can I use something like taxonomy_redirect for this? Ideally it would be configurable per role - so an extranet user would go to an extranet page where an intranet user would go to an intranet page.

Re: [support] Calculated Fields in View
by Chris McCreery 14 Sep '07

14 Sep '07

I am just wondering if there is a module that would calculate the total of fields in different views. For instance if I had time tracked in one field can I create a few that shows all the entries and then calculates the total of those fields? Thanks, -- Chris McCreery

Edit permission in forums posts
by Walter Garcia-Fontes 14 Sep '07

14 Sep '07

Drupal 5.1, with Taxonomy Access, Per-node access and normal access control. I seem to be unable to deny edit permission to my users for forum posts. That is, except for anonymous and authenticated users without any role, all other roles can edit own and other's posts. I've tried everything, like reproducing the authenticated users permissions in Taxonomy Access and per-node access to all roles except admin, but still: just authenticated have the right permissions but users with roles can edit any forum post. Is there any other place defining these permissions that I'm overlooking? -- Walter Garcia-Fontes Barcelona

Location Module
by sander-martijn 13 Sep '07

13 Sep '07

Anyone have any experience with the location module, or any other custom search modules? It works perfectly (well I'd like the option to limit a search to a specific content type so I can use it for 3 different types of content and have it return results only for the one i'm searching for). But it doesn't come with a module like the search module so that I can add a search box into a region. I know that I can't just create a form and drop it in a block because I need to have a form token - but that's about all I know. Any pointers for what I do need to do to create this block? thanks .sander

This is really vague, sorry, but I know someone has done it. I remember seeing a demo of it some time ago. It might be worth a look through the modules page to see if you can find it. I know that doesn't help a lot knowing it exists but not knowing where, but at least you know it's there somewhere. :) Michelle On 9/10/2007 8:32:21 AM, Jody Cleveland (cleveland(a)winnefox.org) wrote: > Hello, > > I have a website that has a number of items on the front page.

Best way to fix a bug?
by Jim Smith 13 Sep '07

13 Sep '07

I've been working with Drupal for more than two years, but regetfully, I'm not a coder. My strengths are primarily in theming. I know just enough survival PHP to get by. So here's my dilemma: A module I need for a site I'm building has a bug that prevents it from working. I posted information about it in the project issue queue a few days ago, but there has been no response. I attempted to contact the module's maintainer, but so far I have not yet received a reply. I can find the approximate location of the problem, but I don't know how to really debug it. What's a non-coder to do? Any suggestions? jns
