Create X nodes
by Steve Kessler 05 May '09

05 May '09

I am looking for a module that will create X number of nodes of a specific type where an admin user will stipulate the number of nodes, the type of node being created , a user other than the admin to own the node and pre-populate a title and CCK fields based on the admin users entries. For example you want to have 5 movie nodes called New Movie and populate all five with a specific code. The assigned user would then have the ability to edit and essentially create new movies without the create node privilege. Thank you for your help with this issue. Thanks, Steve

D6 schema api sharing a sequence/serial across several tables
by Ivan Sergio Borgonovo 04 May '09

Hi, Is it possible just using schema api abstraction to share a sequence across several tables? Will it be possible in D7? BTW is there a place to see what are the current feature of D7 DB abstraction layer? I'm going to skip porting to D6 some stuff directly to D7 and I'll have to start with some advance since the stuff is huge. thanks -- Ivan Sergio Borgonovo http://www.webthatworks.it

How to Fix a Messed Up Site
by Fred Jones 04 May '09

04 May '09

I am given now a D5 site with eCommerce and Ubercart both installed but deactivated. The original developer still has a dev version somewhere where Ubercart is activated and appears to be working. The owners now want me to provide them with ecommerce capability. I have read that eCommerce and Ubercart are not compatible. The site owners furthermore want to upgrade to D6 and also the latest version of CiviCRM (which anyway requires D6). But when I explained that it may be necessary to rebuild the site in D6 and then export/import the data (nodes and users) and that will take a day or two of work, they have asked if there is any other way to provide ecommerce functionality more simply. Aside from having paid once for this site to an incompetent developer, they happen to be on a very limited budget (they are an NPO). So, any other suggestions? I could just turn on Ubercart and hope it works I suppose. Heh heh. I'm not too thrilled about that however. Thanks.
