Translating english to english
by Ámon Tamás 26 Jun '08

Hello, I have a multilingual site (but I think this is not important in this situation) and here is an english string in drupal core, for example: "Body". But I like to write this in the forms "Text". How can I make it? Ámon Tamás Sitefejlesztő és programozó -- 5NET Informatikai Kft. 1062 Budapest, Aradi utca 38.

how can I stop a block showing if it's empty? (not a Views block)
by Neil: esl-lounge.com 26 Jun '08

26 Jun '08

I have blocks called "Related Blogs" or "Related Videos" etc, which list other nodes of the same type if they've been tagged with the same terms. It's working great, just that the block is showing even when there are no related nodes. What I would like is for the block not to show if there are no related nodes. My code is: <div style="font-size:0.75em;padding:3px;">  <?php if (arg(0) == 'node' && is_numeric(arg(1)) && is_null(arg(2))) { $nid = (int)arg(1); $terms = taxonomy_node_get_terms($nid); $output = "<span class='whole-list'>"; foreach($terms as $term){ $sql = "SELECT n.title, n.nid FROM {node} n INNER JOIN {term_node} tn ON n.nid = tn.nid WHERE tn.tid = $term->tid AND n.nid != $nid ORDER BY RAND() LIMIT 3"; $result = db_query(db_rewrite_sql($sql)); if (db_num_rows($result)) { $output .="<h5 style='color:#900;font-weight:bold;margin-top:3px;'>$term->name</h5><ol class='each-term'>"; while ($anode = db_fetch_object($result)) { $output .= "<li>".l($anode->title, "node/$anode->nid")."</li>"; } $output.="</ol>"; } } $output .= "</div>"; return $output; } ?> </div> and for the moment, the block visibility is set as blog/*, video/*, image/*, etc. How can I use php visibility settings to test to see if any content is returned. Would something as simple as: if $output return TRUE work? Neil

extracting author's UID from URL for use in a block
by Neil: esl-lounge.com 26 Jun '08

26 Jun '08

I have given my blog entries URL's in PathAuto like this: /blog/5/200806/389 where: 5 is UID of author 200806 is June, 2008 389 is nid I want to create a block on the right margin which will have links such as member's blog, member's recent entries, member's most read blogs, etc which will all link to Views I've already set up. I thought I could use args to extract the UID from the URL but when I print out all arguments in the block as a test, I get only "node" and "389" so it's not seeing the PathAuto URL but the system URL. What I was hoping to do, paraphrased, is where arg0 is blog and arg1 is numeric arg1 equals $uid <a href="/blog/$uid">Member's Blog</a> also though, in that snippet, how would I load the user's name? I guess what I'd really want to do is load the user so I'm able to extract uid, name, picture, etc and use arg1 to do it, but I can't get the PathAuto created URL parameters, only the core system ones. any help appreciated.

updating mysql with Drupal 6
by David Halik 25 Jun '08

25 Jun '08

Hi, just a quick question. I've been running Drupal 6 on Centos 5 with mysql 5.0.22 for awhile now, and I'd like to update to the latest version 5.0.45. Is it safe to update the mysql package with an active Drupal database, or do I need to dump it, start fresh, and reload the database. Just curious if anyone has tried this and what the consequences might be. I'm thinking I can just bump the version since it's just a minor revision. Any opinions would be appreciated. Thanks. -- ================================ David Halik System Administrator OIT-CSS Rutgers University dhalik(a)jla.rutgers.edu ================================

Succesfully updated from Centos 5.1 -> 5.2. I left mysql 5.0.45 until last, but it didn't give me any issues. I did have that handy backup just in case in needed to back out though ;) Jens Moewes wrote: > Hi David, > I never did update from MySQL 5.0.22 to 5.0.45 - but I would > definitely back it up and put the site in maintenance mode before trying. > Best, > Jens > > 2008/6/25 David Halik >: > > > Hi, just a quick question.

Session problems
by Daniel Carrera 25 Jun '08

25 Jun '08

Hello, A lot of users are complaining that inexplicably they end up getting logged into another user's account. These are users at a school. At first I assumed that they there sharing computers and the previous user had not logged out properly. But at least some users have assured me that this is not the problem. Can anyone think of a reason why some users may be logged in as a different user? My users are very angry and I don't know what to do. Drupal 4.7 Thank you for your help. Daniel.
