Update CCK content type with location data
by Scott 28 Nov '09

28 Nov '09

I've just added the location and gmap modules to an installation in development. It contains two content types that I wish to add the google map capability to. Actually I have this working fine except that I need to add the location fields data by hand. One of my content types already has more that one thousand records and I'd rather not have to do it that way. The only thing I can think of is to drop the content type, rebuild it and reimport from the csv files the data originally came from. This may cause unanticipated integrity issues. Any thoughts on this would be appreciated.

Re: [support] How to add a view to a Book TOC
by LESLIE FRIESEN 28 Nov '09

I'll check it out. Thanks so much, Shai. Leslie >>> Shai Gluskin <shai(a)content2zero.com> 11/27/09 7:52 PM >>> Leslie and all, I think the insert_view module is what you need. The book modules requires a node in order to become a part of it's hierarchy. Insert_view uses an input filter to insert a view into a node. The syntax is well documented and easy to use. With D6 and Views 2 "attachment" functionality, there are use cases that you can now do within Views that used to require insert_view. However, your use-case cannot be done with attachments and is a use case in which the insert_view module still makes sense. http://drupal.org/project/insert_view Shai Gluskin On Nov 27, 2009, at 7:08 PM, "LESLIE FRIESEN" <FRIESEN.LESLIE(a)co.polk.or.us > wrote: > Hello, > > I have a book created for each department.

Private file transfer keeps enabling itself
by Steve Power 26 Nov '09

26 Nov '09

Hi I have a D6 site which has the private uploads module enabled and a slew of others. Every so often (like once/twice a week) i will find that the file system has changed my setting of 'Public - files are available using HTTP directly.' to 'Private - files are transferred by Drupal.' I have to get to the bottom of this as each time the file transfer method is changed to private, all the IE clients start seeing white screens (too many css files) as css + js aggregation is turned off. Does anyone know of any condition that would prompt this setting to change automatically? I have taken the step of disabling the private uploads module just in case this has anything to do with it. any help appreciated. cheers. -- -- -- Steve Power Principal Consultant Mobile: +44 (0) 7747 027 243 Initsix Technology and Media -- "A squid eating dough in a pothyethylene bag is fast and bulbous.

Watchdog table is missing in the database after drupal upgrade
by Richard Cahilig 25 Nov '09

25 Nov '09

Hello, I have a strange problem noticed in my drupal site. I encountered the error below when I'm trying to view logs inside my drupal site. - user warning: Table 'rcahilig_cahiligdotnet.watchdog' doesn't exist query: SELECT COUNT(DISTINCT(message)) FROM watchdog WHERE type = 'search' in /home/rcahilig/public_html/modules/dblog/dblog.admin.inc on line 111. - user warning: Table 'rcahilig_cahiligdotnet.watchdog' doesn't exist query: SELECT COUNT(wid) AS count, message, variables FROM watchdog WHERE type = 'search' GROUP BY message, variables ORDER BY count DESC LIMIT 0, 30 in /home/rcahilig/public_html/modules/dblog/dblog.admin.inc on line 111. Then after checking the database, I found out that the watchdog table in the database is not there anymore. It just started when I upgraded my drupal site from version 6.13 to version 6.14. The update process went fine at that time and I did not encountered any error after the upgrade. What seems to be the problem. Please advise. -- Richard R.

Using ImageField instead of Image module - thumbs/teasers
by Neil Coghlan 23 Nov '09

23 Nov '09

I've just taken the plunge and switched over from Image module to Imagefield, but there don't seem to be any thumbnails created for teasers. When I go into the teaser, the image is shown normal size. if I want to create thumbnails, do I need to use ImageCache. It seems that imagecache has its own dependencies meaning I'm having to use three modules minimum to do the job that Image module did on its own. Am I missing something? Also, if I wanted to replicate the views I had with image (thumbs of latest 10 images, for instance) will that be possible with imagecache? Thanks Neil

I have a views page set up and I want to set the [Title] to be the alt tag for the HTML. I have tried 'Rewrite the out put of this field' and so far that just tags onto the original HTML.

Automatically Approve Comment For Return Visitors
by Steve Kessler 23 Nov '09

23 Nov '09

Dear Drupal Community, I have a project that wants to be able to have return visitors put their email into comments and be authenticated for comment approval. The client does not want the user to need to create an account but if an account was created for the person in the Drupal system this would not be a problem. Evidently this is done with Wordpress and I am hoping someone can recommend a module or recipe for making this happen with Drupal.
