Books and blocks
by Sunil Kumar 07 Sep '08

07 Sep '08

Hi All, I have four books in my site. They are to be arranged to according to the subject of the book. Two books belongs to Tutorial section. (That means they are tutorials) Other two books are about Performance (This will deal with how to perform an act etc) I want two separate blocks to view these books with heading Tutorials and Performance. Under Tutorials, two books dealing with learning will be listed and other two books will be under the heading "Performance" I would like to use two separate blocks (one for tutorial and other one for Performance) and those blocks to be displayed one in left side (Tutorial) and other in right side (Performance). How can I do that? I am a newbie and dont have know coding. Regards, -S- http://chintha.com http://vayanasala.blogspot.com

by Ámon Tamás 07 Sep '08

07 Sep '08

Hello, I like to make some own form elements: function atleta_elements() { $type['meter'] = array('#input' => TRUE, '#size' => 60); return $type; } but when I like to use it: $form['meter2'] = array( '#title' => 'meter2', '#type' => 'meter', ); I do not see this element. What is the solution? Ámon Tamás Sitefejlesztő és programozó -- 5NET Informatikai Kft. 1062 Budapest, Aradi utca 38.

Separately editable page sections?
by Luke 06 Sep '08

06 Sep '08

Hello I am trying to allow certain portions of a node to be editable independently from that node. Or, trying to allow a node to display a block of text, based upon something entered in some administrative section. An example, would be a div containing special announcements, displayed on a home page. I would like to have that section only be editable, without granting edit permission for the entire page. I could probably do this with a view, displaying an otherwise publicly inaccessible node. I could probably do it better using a custom designed HTML form, with a bit of PHP in the node to pull a record from the database. Those are the two options I have thought of. However, there are probably others of which I am unaware, and maybe this is not a novel problem. Any suggestions? Thanks Luke

Can't view uploaded files.
by Daniel Carrera 06 Sep '08

06 Sep '08

Hello, When I try to view an image by pointing my browser to: http://server.com/drupal/files/ftp-uploads/foo.jpg I get a Drupal page that says "page not found". I think I know why this happens, but I don't know the solution. The Drupal "files" directory is divided into two sub-directories: uploads/ ftp-uploads/ Drupal uploads files to "files/uploads" and anything I upload through FTP I upload to ftp-uploads. I just like this organization. The files in the first directory work fine. It is the ones in the second directory, the FTP one, that give the "page not found" error. MY THEORY: Drupal must have a setting somewhere that tells it that any path that matches files/uploads/* shall be interpreted as a real file path. I need to find out where this setting is, and change it to "files/*". But I don't know where that setting is. Perhaps a htaccess file - I cannot prove the ftp uploads elsewhere. I am migrating to Drupal 5 and the existing site already has dozens of links that would be broken if I moved the files. - I really really don't want to have Drupal put its files directly under 'files/'. I am moving to a new uploads module that creates a directory for every user. With a few thousand users, the "files/" directory would become impossible to navigate for me. Thanks for the help. Daniel.

Role > Menu problem
by A-NO-NE Music 06 Sep '08

06 Sep '08

v5.10, I was asked to create a role, Editor, who can only create/edit: Page Story CCK restaurant menu Event However, after doing this from Access Control, I get this Navigation Menu: Create content My account Comments Forums Access control Access rules Roles Search users Users Log out I set up so visitor will see only Admin Login on this Navigation Menu. It puzzles me whey Comments and Forums shows up, and Access Control, Access Rules, Roles, Search users, and Users needs to be hidden. All what I want to show is Edit on existing nodes, Create content, My account, and Log out. Any help would be appreciated. P.S. I have seen "rebuild permission" mentioned before, but I just can't locate where it is. -- - Hiro Hiroaki Honshuku, A-NO-NE Music, Greater Boston http://a-no-ne.com http://anonemusic.com

Interfaces / web services
by Chris Johnson 05 Sep '08

05 Sep '08

A client recently asked us the following question (paraphrased): "Can you check with your developers on what (if any) interfaces are made available for other systems to integrate with Drupal 6. I thought it was possible there would be some services offered up which would allow systems (such as our XYZ portal) to reach out and query Drupal and then make use of that data in reports, etc." In particular, the data they are interested in querying is all stored in CCK nodes. I am aware of the following possibilities, and am researching contrib for more: Thanks to the services module and a few others, the following kinds of services should be available: * XML-RPC * AMFPHP * JSON * REST * SOAP Core itself provides an RSS feed service. There are modules for KML and GeoRSS feeds as well. The RDF framework provides a whole basket of RDF interfaces. Does anyone have any other ideas I should take a look at with respect to the above question? Thanks, -- ..chris

by Lev Lafayette 04 Sep '08

04 Sep '08

Using Drupal 5.10, module installed in /sites/all/modules We would like authenticated users to able to create content but only administrators to be able to publish. Do I have to make modifications to user access control? This is not in the README.txt that comes with the module.

Multiple blogs, automatic cross posting
by Christopher M. Jones 04 Sep '08

04 Sep '08

I think I already know the answer to this question, but I thought somebody might have better ideas. My wife's blog is growing, and she wants to start a second one. We've got her blog pretty well organized into a taxonomy, and it's one particular term in the taxonomy that she wants to become a second blog. However, the posts she writes for the second blog should also show up in the first blog, along with comments, etc. So, essentially, what she wants is a second blog as a 'view' on the first blog. I guess that's the answer to my question. I need to create a view. Any other good ways to do this? Also, each blog needs to be either its own domain or its own subdomain.

Creating Computed field from values of other computed fields
by Chris McCreery 04 Sep '08

04 Sep '08

Hi I'm trying to create computed fields based on other computed fields but it doesn't display anything. First I created the following: Male Participants Age 13 Age 14 Age 15 Created a computed field to calculate the male participants (participants_male_total) I then did the same for female participants and created another computer field to hold that total(participants_female_total) Then I created a new computed field (participants_total) = male_total +female_total But I can't get it to calculate unless I simply add all the male and female files together. Any suggestions as to what I'm doing wrong? Thanks in advance. -- Chris McCreery www.linkedin.com/in/chrismccreery
