Users without email addresses?
by Daniel Carrera 18 Mar '09

18 Mar '09

Hello, I have an unusual problem: We provide a service for schools. Students make Drupal accounts and use it to do a school project. Problem is, many students don't have email and indeed, the school doesn't *want* the students to have email. Worse, they want the teacher to create the student accounts. I don't like this, yes it's stupid, but there is no chance of me changing their mind about this. I'm hoping that someone here might help me find a good solution for this problem. As part of the service, we have a custom web application that I wrote. This application already has a record of all the students and teachers and schools. So, for example, I could consider using this application to insert new users into the Drupal database. The teacher clicks a button that says "make Drupal accounts for all my students" and a PHP script makes the accounts. Could that work? Personally, I am afraid of editing the Drupal database directly, but perhaps there is a safe API I can use? Or is it reasonably safe to insert records into the Drupal database by hand? I can see problems with this idea (e.g. what do I use as user names? Student names are not unique). But I can't think of anything better. Does anyone have a better idea? I don't really know any good way to solve this problem. The problem is not urgent. For the time being we can get a staff member with admin access to create student accounts using fake email addresses. But I hope to find a better long-term solution. Thanks for the help. Daniel.

Custom User Login and Error Messages
by Fred Jones 18 Mar '09

18 Mar '09

I have a Drupal 5 site with a custom login form, using function phptemplate_user_login and user_login.tpl.php. It works fine, but there are two issues. First is that if a user logins on the home page he ends up at site.com/front. This is technically correct as front is the front page. This is how drupal.org works--login on the home page and you end at up http://drupal.org/node . We would like to change this, however, to end up at site.com. I tried: $form['#action'] = base_path(); in both the tpl file and the template.php file but it didn't help. This is not a major issue, but it would be nice. The other one is quite perplexing and is serious. If a user attempts to login from /user and fails then the expected message shows up. If he does the same from the front page, then no message shows up. Both pages use page.tpl.php and the code there is trivial: <?php print $messages ?> yet it fails on the home page. Any ideas why that might be? This site was built by someone else, and I looked through the template.php file but I don't see anything which should be killing the message. Thanks.

$cookie_domain not working
by John Fletcher 17 Mar '09

17 Mar '09

I'm using saltwebsites.de to provide the german version of saltwebsites.com. I set $cookie_domain in my settings.php file so that I can preserve logins across domains but it's not working - saltwebsites.de doesn't recognise that I'm logged in on saltwebsites.com. Additionally checking my browser cookies shows that I'm still getting cookies from saltwebsites.de. It seems to be rudely disobeying the setting. Anyone have any idea why that might be? (I only have sites/default/settings.php - no sites set up other than "default"). Fletch

Changing from CSS linking to CSS importing
by Roberto Gorjão 17 Mar '09

17 Mar '09

Hi! I need to change the default output from the $styles variable so stylesheets get imported rather than linked to. I mean, changing from this model: <link type="text/css" rel="stylesheet" media="all" href="/modules/book/book.css?E" /> <link type="text/css" rel="stylesheet" media="all" href="/modules/node/node.css?n" /> to this model: <style type="text/css"> @import url(/modules/book/book.css?E); @import url(/modules/node/node.css?n); </style> Which would be the best approach to get this done? Thanks in advance! Roberto

Ajax Tabs in Drupal 6
by Fred Jones 17 Mar '09

17 Mar '09

I have a custom module which I must upgrade from D5 to D6. In D5 I used the tabs module (part of the jstools module) and code like: $form['example1']['tab2'] = array( '#type' => 'tabpage', '#title' => t('Audio'), '#url' => base_path().'ajax/nodelist/audio', '#target' => 'media_tab', ); and it magically makes this tab link load the content via Ajax. OK, someone else wrote this code, but anyhow it works. I tried to do the same thing with the D6 tabs module (now not part of jstools) but no Ajax happens. :( There is also the magictabs module, but AFAICT that module creates all the content for all the nodes when the page is called, as opposed to what I want, which is to only generate the content for each node when it's requested, via a callback. I could write some jQuery code to do this myself I suppose, but I was wondering if there's a module that does this or if I the tabs module can do this? Thanks

Help with deleting all users with a specific role
by Steve Power 13 Mar '09

13 Mar '09

Hi ive been migrating a customer from phpbb2 to D6. Was sposed to go live on sunday... Ive had numerous issues (mainly due to poor sql performance on ec2 instances!) and the rest is due to be finished tonight starting 10pm uk time....one problem is that the customer has been using the test site to create nodes, while i stupidly had test forum data on there. I have managed to delete all the test forum data, but im left with 1700 users who need to be readded from the most recent cut of the phpbb database. Anyways, longer story shorter - does anyone know the SQL i can use to delete all authetnicated users, all their post settings (e.g. user_titles_posts) and related tables etc? I assume there is a drupal function that i can loop through somewhere, but im running out of time and wondered if anyone had done this before, and if they could point me in the right direction! cheers! -- -- -- Steve Power Principal Consultant Mobile: +44 (0) 7747 027 243 Initsix Technology and Media -- "So Linux is bulletproof?

View with add at bottom
by John Thomas 12 Mar '09

12 Mar '09

I have a view on a node type "A" that displays node type "B" that reference the specific type A node. For example, visiting a Node A node might show 3 or 4 B type nodes in a list/view. What is the best way to add blanks to the end of my view where the user could type in information that would create a type B node with the nodereference to that node A. Thank you in advance! -- Sincerely, John Thomas

Hi ever-helpful support people, I've been struggling with getting the resource conflict module operational on a Drupal 5.x install; could someone walk me through those steps, because I'm at the point of exhausting my knowledge on the subject...
