How to hide a CCK field (label and value) if value is empty
by Massimiliano Marini 20 Jul '09

20 Jul '09

Hi all, I've made a CCK content where some field are not "Required". What is the best way to hide during visualization (label and value) if value is empty? It's recommended to use a module, for example: http://drupal.org/project/contemplate or there is another better way? -- Massimiliano Marini - http://www.linuxtime.it/massimilianomarini/ "It's easier to invent the future than to predict it." -- Alan Kay

Hi all, I've created a new content with CCK, all the fields are displayed correctly, but I don't use the Body field (displayed by default) and I would like to hide it, is it possible or not?

How can I permanently expand the "File attachment" fieldset?
by maxigas 20 Jul '09

20 Jul '09

hi! There is a method for permamently expanding the "File attachment" fieldset. I need this specifically on the upload forms of my "Gallery" node types, so i tried to implement the hacks described there, but it doesn't seem to work: http://drupal.org/node/227339 Seems to be a nice improvement indeed. I applied it on a Drupal 6 site i am building, but doesn't seem to work. It is supposed to have effect at node creation time in that form as well, isn't it? Here's the code that doesn't work for me, it's in a module file which is enabled on the site, and there are no other custom modules altering forms: function lsesu_form_alter($form_id, &$form) { if($form_id == 'gallery_node_form') { $form['attachments']['#collapsed'] = false; // Tried with and without this but no effect: return drupal_render($form); } } maxigas

Using views Display data from multiple cck nodes with shared fields
by geniekids 20 Jul '09

20 Jul '09

I have many cck content types all having a common shared date field (called activity_date) What i want is a view that will display data from different nodes for the same date. This what i did in views FILTERS - i added node type and selected two such node types (both have shared field activity_date) in views FIELDS - i selected one field each from each of the nodes (session report from one and activity name from another) But when i view - grouped by date - while the date comes neatly once at the top (like a header) the fileds come repeated - it lists both the fields twice (see attached image) - each field blank in each instance. This would obviously look terrible if i had many fields from each node. what i want is - under the date - fields 1a, 1b etc from node type 1 and fields 2a, 2b etc from node type 2. any guidance appreciated http://www.nabble.com/file/p24568255/Clipboard01.jpg Clipboard01.jpg -- View this message in context: http://www.nabble.com/Using-views-Display-data-from-multiple-cck-nodes-with… Sent from the Drupal - Support mailing list archive at Nabble.com.

Displaying node form buttons at top and bottom
by Steve Edwards 20 Jul '09

20 Jul '09

On the node edit form for a CCK type, the client wants to have the Save/Preview/Delete buttons both at the top and bottom of the form. I created a template file and added an entry in hook_theme() to use it, and it works fine. I then added "print drupal_render_form('article-edit',$form['buttons']);" and then print drupal_render_form('article-edit',$form); , and then moves the button to the top and then renders the rest of the form. The question is, how do I get the buttons to display again at the bottom? If I put in another "print drupal_render_form('article-edit',$form['buttons']);", they aren't displayed. I really don't want to have to enter each element individually just to get the buttons at the bottom if I don't have to. Thanks. Steve

adding "description" help text to block configuration form
by Neil Coghlan 17 Jul '09

17 Jul '09

I've never tried to user hook_form_alter to change a form. I'd like to just add a line or two of help text to the block configuration form on the user account edit page. Is hook_form_alter even the best way to do this? could someone just give me a pointer as to where to begin with this? Do I need to make a separate module with just the hook_form_alter in it? Interestingly, D7 will now have a few lines of help text in the block config form, but I'm on D6. thanks Neil

4 different sites with 1 shared search
by Michel Morelli 17 Jul '09

17 Jul '09

Hi all. I need to create 4 different sites (nodes, taxonomies, users, theme) that have two things in common: domain base (mydomain.com) and the search. How can I do it ? I can use multi-installation and divide the sites via directory (ok for theme, node, taxonomy, but not for search) or I can use the organic groups (ok for node, taxonomy, search but not for theme?) I have thinked that the organic groups is the best solution, but can I theme it ? How ? Thanks. M. -- Michel 'ZioBudda' Morelli michel(a)ziobuddalabs.net Consulenza sistemistica in ambito OpenSource.

dynamic views field output based on arguments
by sebastian 17 Jul '09

17 Jul '09

Hello Drupalites, I have a taxonomy-view which correctly outputs my taxonomy list and I am using "rewrite output" to generate the correct path output for when a user clicks an item in the list. However, I do not see how I can make it so that if the view is passed an argument that matches one of the taxonomy terms, the specific taxonomy term can be changed so that I can then turn off it's A HREF and style it appropriately. I had tried using the module: taxonomy_menu but when I turn on "custom path" my menu just vanishes from the output, and I am not sure why it is doing this, nor can I find any quick solutions to this...; hence why I am just using the standard Views 2 solution. I am on Drupal 6.2 Does anyone have a solution to this? Do I need to write custom PHP code? If so, it will be for only one panel, which in turn is loading this one view. Thanks! Sebastian.
