CVS Questions
by Steve Kessler 18 Apr '09

18 Apr '09

I have never used a site that has been built using CVS before. I have inherited a site that was built using CVS. We don't have SSH set-up yet with the host but I want to make sure I am not going to mess anything up by adding a modules to the site that is not downloaded through CVS and then when we get SSH I can replace it that way.

Multiple site update and maintenance D6
by Nik Derewianka 03 Apr '09

03 Apr '09

Hi, After being spoilt by magento with it's './pear update all' mechanism to upgrade an entire site and its modules, I am trying to find a way to manage the updating of multiple drupal installs in as painless a manner as possible. My server is running plesk and each client will have their own install of Drupal. The suggestions of domain aliases for each site as per http://drupal.org/node/201322 is not applicable as it loses all the benefits of plesk (bandwidth monitoring, seperate client accounts, etc). Trying to script it all with something like drush would probably be great, but so far i have been unable to get the drush_extras (in particular pm) to work at all - i keep getting command not found even though i have the commands in a command folder in the drush doler as well as having it in a .drush folder in my home folder. I think this may be more due to the fact that drush for D6 is downloadable only as a HEAD snapshot rather than an actual release that has been tested ??? Another alternative is to look at symlinking the httpdocs folder for each account to a single drupal install and use drupal in a multi-site setup. There are still some drawbacks to this with regards to permissions and any non drupal files that a client may wish to put in their account (at say the root level). Right now, the only clear method seems to be maintaining a bunch of shell scripts that have to be tweaked every second day to keep up with the releases for modules. Even having a http://drupal.org/project/ <name>/latest url scheme would greatly improve this approach. But overall this is far from ideal. But, I guess at the end of the day, how are people managing 10's/100's of drupal sites and keeping them regularly updated and maintained when the drupal multi-site functionality does not suit them ??? Thanks, Nik

Problem with 6.10 and file upload
by Nick Holden 01 Apr '09

01 Apr '09

I'd appreciate some help getting to grips with an odd behaviour we've found since upgrading a site to 6.10 - the file attachments (using the drupal core upload module) are either not working properly, or not working as we expect... There are two issues: 1. When creating or editing a node you can only add one file attachment. If you put a second filename into the 'attach new file' box and click 'attach' it overwites the one already in the list. Never more than one file can be displayed in the list. This is not the behaviour exhibited by drupal.org and is not what we expect. 2. Once the content is saved, although the uploaded file is saved in the /sites/default/files/ directory, it is not attached in the content of the page or story. The uploaded files can be subsequently linked to or embedded in content, but they do not display as attached or uploaded content in the node in which they were created. This behaviour is new on the site since upgrade to 6.10 - so are we failing to complete some part of the upgrade process, or is there an error? Thanks for any suggestions or comments people can offer. Nick

views templates for all themes
by Christopher M. Jones 31 Mar '09

31 Mar '09

Is there a way to theme a view so that the views templates do not need to be in the theme directory? The templates I'm creating ought to be used regardless of which theme is selected, and I don't want to have to put them into every theme directory.
