CCK field database storage discrepancy
by Paul Kim 31 Oct '08

31 Oct '08

I have a content type with several CCK fields. This site goes through the standard dev -> qa -> prod workflow, and so I have at least 3 different servers that need updates pushed on a regular basis. I'm doing this through a internal database script that I wrote, and using a patched (with the patch provided in the dbscripts module) content_copy.module for cck changes that allow updates to content types with CCK fields. I am finding that some fields' content in my dev box is stored as a column in the content_type_xxxx (where xxxx is the content type name) table, whereas they are being stored in the content_field_yyyy (where yyyy is the CCK field name) on the QA machine. For some reason, these fields on the QA machine aren't being properly inserted into the $node variable, and they aren't being saved properly either. What's the difference between these fields being saved in content_type_xxxx and content_field_yyyy? How do I make sure these CCK fields are stored in the same way across all three databases? Thanks! Paul

Visible menu entries
by Daniel Carrera 31 Oct '08

31 Oct '08

Hello, Is it possible to make a menu entry visible only to authenticated users? Ultimately, what I want is to replace the "create content" page by a custom page, but naturally, I only want that link to be visible to authenticated users, otherwise I'll just confuse the other users. Daniel.

Views and Menu
by Daniel Carrera 31 Oct '08

31 Oct '08

Hello, I have made a view with the views module (Drupal 5). The URL for my view is "user/$arg/pages" and it shows a list of pages for that user. Now, I would really really like to put this on the menu and I can't. I want to have a menu entry that says "My pages". I am on the "edit view" page. I'm looking at the menu section, but I can't make it do what I want. The Menu section looks like this: ---- SNIP START ---- [x] Provide Menu If checked this view be given a menu entry in the Drupal menu system. If not checked the data in this group will be ignored. [ ] Provide Menu as Tab If checked this view's menu entry will be provided as a tab rather than in the main menu system. Tab Weight: [ 1 ] If this is a menu tab, select the weight; lower numbers will be further to the left. Menu Title: [ My pages ] Enter the title to use for the menu entry or tab. If blank, the page title will be used. ---- SNIP END ---- So "Provide menu" is checked, but there is no menu. If I check "Provide menu as tab", I see a tab in the "My account" page, so this function is at least partially working. But when I un-check it, I don't see anything in the menu. I go to admin/build/menu and I don't see my entry there. Not even disabled. Help? I would be grateful for any guidance you might offer. Daniel.

Problems with i18n module
by Sauro Cesaretti 30 Oct '08

30 Oct '08

Hi all, I've got my drupal installation up and running. I've followed the instructions to set up the Internationalization module (i18n) I need to build a multi-language site. I've put the language selection in a region I specifically created. Now, I've entered a page of content, called " <http://www.example.com/en/conference> www.example.com/en/conference ", and I have translated that to all the other languages, saving it as "fr/conferences", "nl/conferences", etc. Now, when I am in that page in English (but it is the same in all other languages), and I want to change the language I'm viewing it, it happens that the language selection link do not report " www.example.com/fr/conference " for the French, or " www.example.com/nl/conference " for Dutch, and so on, but rather " www.example.com/fr/node/33". Thus, when I click on a link in the page in French (for example), obviously the links don't work, since I've used relative paths. How can I fix it? It's a serious problem for me. thank you very much in advance Regards, Sauro

Hi all, I'm developing a zen subtheme. Is there a way to remove the "configure" tab that appears on every block/menu? How can I do that? I've noticed that there's a css for this editing function, but I'd like to disable it definitely. Where is it implemented? Thanks in advance for you help! Regards, Sauro
