Critique of request for help, please?
by Steven Scotten 21 Sep '09

21 Sep '09

I've read several FAQ-type documents that detail the best way to ask for help on usenet, mailing lists, and the like. Yet I still seem to do a poor job of describing issues I encounter. So I'm going to link a request for help I made and ask for specifically what I've missed, so that in the future perhaps I can make my questions more friendly to those that might be able to answer them. http://drupal.org/node/387900 My guess is that there are four possible reasons that I haven't received a response. They are (in decreasing order of likelihood): 1) I have provided incomplete information. 2) The question's answer is so obvious that no one bothers to answer it 3) The question is difficult enough that no one can answer it 4) No one ever looks at the Location Views issue queue There's really nothing I can do about possibilities #3 and #4. If #2 is correct then perhaps a new career path is in order. So I'm hoping that I am woefully inept at asking for help. I have included a clear example of the problem, a link to a description of a similar problem (and the patch I applied), descriptions of the ways I've tried to work around the problem, and why those methods failed. Please tell me: what can I do differently to get a better chance of a response? Thank you, Steve

filtering views by user
by brendan, fresh-off.com 20 Sep '09

20 Sep '09

Hi all, I'm learning views and have created a page display with an exposed filter that allows users to choose between two types of content: user blogs or user profiles. The page display path is set to /user/% so that it displays on each users page. I'd like to know how to filter the views so that the blog shown is specific to the user who's page one is currently on. e.g. the exposed filter on super_user's page only selects from super_user's blogs or profile, while the exposed filter on user2's page only select from user2s' blogs or profile. While searching around drupal.org, I found some mention of using CCK fields in my content types to reference a user, but I'm not sure how it would all come together, or if its even relevant? Any ideas? ---- brendan, fresh-off.com Creative Direction & Consultation: Web | Print | Brand http://fresh-off.com hello(a)fresh-off.com 206.328.1067

FAPI: Elements
by Peter Childs 19 Sep '09

19 Sep '09

I'm need a Form Element that I can slot into several forms in this case for selecting location details but the theory runs for anything. Ideally I want to AHAH enable it so that I can check and update it as they fill the form in pro to submission. So Far I've worked out. Build the element in a #process callback (where previous values are in #default_value) Check it in a #element_validate callback (where previous values are in $element (the first parameter) but if you need to update or add anything change the second parameter that is passed by ref. The only thing I've really got on using AHAH is to get the whole form to build and work correctly without it then add it afterwards. But I can see how I get just the element to use AHAH and then be able to just drop it into any form later. I've looked at most of the documentation and it seams a bit complex. I'm using Drupal 6 Any help or guidance would be much appreciated. Peter

File linking question
by LESLIE FRIESEN 18 Sep '09

18 Sep '09

Good morning, everyone, Is there a way to force Drupal to link to a document on our network file system, without actually uploading it into the Drupal database? We have hundreds of documents that we'd like to link to (this is for our employee intranet site, not an external site) rather than having to upload each one. Thanks in advance, Leslie Leslie Friesen Polk County Information Systems Friesen.Leslie(a)co.polk.or.us 503-623-0713

by Chris Pall 17 Sep '09

I've got about a dozen or so content types each with 5-10 fields. Picking out which fields I want to use in a particular display is pretty tricky and annoying. Is there anything which can filter them for me? -- cgp

Problem for alter a cck's select list
by Michel Morelli 17 Sep '09

17 Sep '09

Hi all. I have a cck field of type "select list". The "allowed values" are inserted/take via a function, called inside the "php code" field. It works: in the node/add/mycontent form I can see all "options" of the select list. Now, I have a module that need to rebuild the values of that select list, but without success. I have created the hook_form_alter() function, I have altered the form and insert my #options values for that field, but when I see the page I found the old #options values. I have used devel modules and via kpr($form) I have see that when my alter form function is called the #options value is not present. I have changed the 'weight' in system table and my hook_form_alter is called after cck alter form (I have see it via dmp()). Any help ?
