Polls module
by Daniel Carrera 25 Jan '10

25 Jan '10

Hello, I just started a poll on my website. After I voted I see that I have no option to change the vote. What if one of my users says that they want to change their vote. Is there a way to remove their vote from the poll so they can vote again? Daniel.

Forum module?
by Daniel Carrera 25 Jan '10

25 Jan '10

Hello, Can anyone recommend a *good* forum module, that works well, actually *looks* like a standard web forum, and doesn't have external dependencies? I have one website that uses the standard Drupal forum module. It sort of works, but very poorly. It's really just taking the "comments" feature and pretending that it's a forum, and it doesn't work very well. It doesn't look like a forum at all. I have another website that uses Simple Machines Forum. These modules do look great, but SMF is a separate dependency and the integration with Drupal is imperfect. You often get a lot of the SMF admin controls poping out. Some times you have to login again to SMF, and so on. I have to hide the smf URL to avoid the risk of someone creating an account at SMF directly without a corresponding Drupal account. So this solution is not great either. Is anyone aware of a better alternative? Something that really works inside Drupal but actually looks like a standard web forum? Thanks for the help. Cheers, Daniel.

Help with "User Titles" module.
by Daniel Carrera 25 Jan '10

25 Jan '10

Hello, I have installed the User Titles module to complement the Advance Forum module. I have setup five user titles and I uploaded images. When I go to the forum, I see the title but not the image: http://monda-lango.org/node/141 See? No image. It's supposed to be showing this image: http://monda-lango.org/files/user-titles-images/icon-2-stars.png If you inspect the HTML, you'll see that Drupal is not even trying to show the image. There is no image tag at all. Any idea how I can get Drupal to display the image? Thanks, Daniel.

I have the Image, Image_Attach and img_assit modules for my site. The basic use for these is to enable users to upload images to the server and put them in their blog entires. The images get published to RSS and ultimately end up on Twitter and Facebook. So how to disable the publishing of Image Nodes in RSS ? -- Nilesh Govindarajan Site & Server Adminstrator www.itech7.com

Add Location to a node programmatically
by Scott 24 Jan '10

24 Jan '10

I have a module meant to create a node at the time a user record is set to active status. The user record contains location data. I wish to use this same location data in the new node but have so far not discovered how to do so programmatically. My module code: <?php /** * DRUPAL 6 * Override the hook_user * */ function newbusinessnode_user($op, &$edit, &$account, $category = NULL) { if ($op == 'after_update') { $bus_uid = $account->uid; $bus_name = $account->name; // the location is the point of this new node $sql = 'SELECT location.lid AS lid, location.name AS location_name FROM {location} location LEFT JOIN {location_instance} location_instance ON location.lid = location_instance.lid LEFT JOIN {users} users ON location_instance.uid = users.uid WHERE users.uid = '.$bus_uid; $result = db_query($sql); if ($loc = db_fetch_object($result)) { $loc_lid = $loc->lid; $loc_name = $loc->location_name; } // Create a new node $form_state = array(); module_load_include('inc', 'node', 'node.pages'); $node = array('type' => 'business_submitted'); $form_state['values']['title'] = $loc_name; $form_state['values']['body'] = 'This is the body text!'; $form_state['values']['name'] = $bus_name; $form_state['values']['location']['lid'] = $loc_lid; $form_state['values']['op'] = t('Save'); drupal_execute('business_submitted_node_form', $form_state, (object)$node); } } ?> How do I include the lid with the node? This module always returns an "Location field is required" error message.

This clause enables modules to display // the true author of the content. if (!empty($object->homepage)) { $output = l($object->name, $object->homepage, array('attributes' => array('rel' => 'nofollow'))); } else { $output = check_plain($object->name); } $output .= ' ('. t('not verified') .')'; } else { $output = check_plain(variable_get('anonymous', t('Anonymous'))); } $output .= ' ('. $object->uid .')'; return $output; } And also i tried something like function phptemplate_username($object) { // block of code changes }

Create node of a content type at time of authorizing new user
by Scott 22 Jan '10

22 Jan '10

Just what the subject line says. I would like to automatically create a node of a specific content type based on the data in a new user record at the time the new user is marked as authorized. New users are requested to add location data when they sign up. I would like to include this data in a new node. This new node will potentially contain information not found nor needed in the user profile. Is there an existing module that handles this?
