Backup and Migrate - Amazon S3
by Elijah Lynn 22 Mar '09

22 Mar '09

I am new to Drupal. I am reading "Using Drupal" now. I read something about using the backup and migrate tool to backup to amazon S3. When I view the module page and click view "documentation", I don't see mention of the Amazon S3 feature. Where can I find more information on this?

More than one template possible?
by Reinhard Mohr 22 Mar '09

22 Mar '09

Hi everybody, I am relatively new to Drupal and I hope someone on this mailing list can help me with one important and one still minor important question: I have used another CMS (cmsmadesimple) and found it relatively easy to use but with some limitations. So I looked around and found Drupal. I have installed it, played around with it and I am now a good way through the getting-started-pages. By now it seems to be well documented and very well organized: Compliments to the people who made it! A) Now the important question: In my old CMS I could create templates for pages; let‘s say one with three columns (template1), one with a header (template2), one without a header (template3), one with two columns (template4). Everytime I create a new page now I can choose from an easy to use drop-down menu that just says "template1/template2/template3/template4". And then automatically the page is created using this template (afterwards at any time I can switch the page design using this drop-down menu). This is a feature that I am totally missing with Drupal. Everything is easy to understand and well documented. But there seems to be only one template per theme. So can I only have one page layout per theme?!? (I am not meaning forum pages with this theme or some special kind of page but just "plain" and "standard" pages.) For example: Must all the pages on my site have three columns because I only have one site-wide template that specifies three columns? How can a CMS that offers such a wealth of expansability have such a fundamental restriction? Or maybe I just didn't find the trick by now? I searched a lot of documents but I am not really sure how Drupal calls this functionality? So I found things like "suggested templates", "subthemes", a "section module". But I am a little bit afraid I might just have missed something or might to easily gho into the wrong way. Please help! Thanks for helping! B) Now the minor important question: Setting up Drupal and creating the first page was easy. Editing it was easy, too. But I could only write plain text that obviously was formatted by preconfigured css. My question arose how I can a) integrate an editor like FCKeditor and b) write or paste html into the page I edit? (I think I will run into the solutions for this minor question as I progress further through the documentation. But as I was already posting questions here maybe someone could give me a quick hint? Thanks! But the first question is the really important one.)

Database problem (I think) causing Extended Profile tabs not to show
by Cosmo 21 Mar '09

21 Mar '09

(I am sorry if this is a duplicate send, but I think something went wrong with the first send as I've not seen it in the list.) My extended profile tabs are not showing on one of my sites and I think it has something to do with the database. Here's what I've done. I'm running D5 and the only thing I've done regarding theming is some very minor font size modifications to Garland to create my PersonalGarland. Which I've stored in sites/all/theme/tightgarland. Here's the debug process so far based on what I could find at drupal.org: I switched to a core theme. First, I switched from my personal version of Garland (PG) to core Garland. Tabs still did not show. Next, I switched to Bluemarine - Tabs did show, but much of my site is a mess. (which is understandable) Next, I have two sites that run this very same PG theme with nearly the same modules, and site 2 works fine showing all profile tabs (base and extended). So, I tried this: 1) I replaced the PG theme code of the site not showing the tabs (SiteBroken) with the PG theme code of the site that works fine (SiteOK). I then cleared all cache tables. (Tabs didn't show in SiteBroken) 2) I replaced the PG theme code of SiteOK with the PG theme code of SiteBroken. (Tabs still show fine in SiteOk) so I'm now thinking it's not the theme code, which lead me to investigate the db. 3) I pointed SiteOK's db via settings.php to the db of SiteBroken. (Tabs now don't show in SiteOk) 4) I pointed SiteBroken's db via settings.php to the db of SiteOk. (Tabs now show find in SiteBroken) Now I thought it might be a formatting issue with a header? So I erased all headers and slogans. (Tabs still don't show) The site looks and run perfectly fine except for one very small annoyance which might be related. On each of the following add pages I get the word "Consume!" where I should see the type of item being added, also on these pages "Consume!" is showing up in my Title Bar of the browser. The pages are: admin/user/rules/add admin/user/user/create admin/build/contact/add admin/content/taxonomy/add/vocabulary admin/build/menu/menu/add admin/build/block/add admin/build/views/add (on this page the word Consume! does not show on the page or in the title bar) I've exhausted everything I can think of. Any suggestions on what I look for now? thanks
