Student Newspaper on Higher Ed Drupal Site
by Gary Broyhill 02 Apr '09

02 Apr '09

Our student newspaper is dropping their print edition and they've approached me about doing the paper online using Drupal. I think it's a great idea, and would like to ask if anyone has done this? If so, feel like sharing tips, experiences, handy modules, pitfalls, etc? Thanks! Gary Broyhill Webmaster Lenoir-Rhyne University www.lr.edu (828) 328-7379 broyhill(a)lr.edu

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
