tracking module suggestions
by Ivan Sergio Borgonovo 04 Jan '10

04 Jan '10

Hi, I'd like to track access to pages with certain parameters in the urls. I want to track the whole history of these pages and associate them with the session (cause). Then when a special event occur (effect) I want to associate it with the session and the history. I want to correlate causes and effects even before login / registration when sid is regenerated. I was wondering if there are similar modules before reinventing the wheel or at least any module that could be an inspiration for writing my own. Right now I'm not looking for advices about implementation of such a beast[1] (even if they will be welcome) but mainly I'd appreciate if someone could point me to an already existent module that already does this or something very similar. [1] a cookie could simply solve the sid regeneration problem. -- Ivan Sergio Borgonovo http://www.webthatworks.it

page-VIEWNAME.tpl.php ?
by Idan Arbel 04 Jan '10

04 Jan '10

Hello, I'm trying to have a different template for each view, I tired this: page-VIEWNAME.tpl.php but it doesn't seem to work. I've searched everywhere and I can't find a solution. I'd like to change the base page layout for the view and not the actual view so the themes in the views aren't what I'm looking for. I'm using views 2 drpual 6. Thanks Idan

Node Access
by skessler＠denverdataman.com 04 Jan '10

04 Jan '10

I have looked at several access control modules and I do not see one that will do what I am looking for. Also on this site I am already using OG and Node Access User Reference so it would be great if any solution works with these two modules as well. I am working on a class portal and I want students to be able to have create and view permissions for assignments they turn in however I do not want other students to be able to see the assignments. I have thought about using Node Access User Reference and having them assign it to the teacher but if there is more than one instructor this gets messy. It would be best if this could be done for the content type by role. So when assignment is turned in it can be viewed by admins and the creator of the file. I hope I am not over thinking this. Thanks, Steve

how cache works: on the fly content creation (not node) and caching
by Ivan Sergio Borgonovo 04 Jan '10

04 Jan '10

Hi, I've a lot of content that get created automatically on-the-fly from a DB. Mapping this content to nodes is not practical (custom search, just a minority of the content get actually displayed etc...). I need a means to check if the cache is still valid at *request* time. I can't know when the cache *will* expire at request time but I know if it is already expired. Considering that the pk for page cache is the url and that a minority of the pages will actually be cached periodically invalidating all the urls checking if the underlying DB record is younger is highly inefficient. Before just building my cache tables and build up my own cache system on top of cache API, is there an alternative approach? -- Ivan Sergio Borgonovo http://www.webthatworks.it

Cron problems
by Daniel Carrera 04 Jan '10

04 Jan '10

Hello, When I try to run cron (admin/reports/status/run-cron) I get an access denied error, even if I'm logged in as admin. If I ssh to the site and run "php cron.php" I get an HTML page output followed by the error: PHP Fatal error: Call to undefined function sendError() in <drupal-path>/includes/common.inc(1685) : eval()'d code on line 7 The HTML output is basically the same "access denied" error page. I don't know if the PHP Fatal error is related to the access denied error (though it looks pretty bad...). Help? Any ideas?

Import data into existing nodes
by Dani Matielo 03 Jan '10

03 Jan '10

Hello all, I was wondering if anybody knows a way (a module or an already existing script) to import data into new fields for existing nodes. In other words, I have already several nodes, and what I wanted to do is to create a new field on them and import data from a cvs to them.

Menu tabs question
by Domenic Santangelo 02 Jan '10

02 Jan '10

Ok, possibly silly question. D6. I'm using content_profile.module for my user profiles. Using pathauto, I've aliased profiles, /user/$username to /member/$username. On the profile pages, I obviously have "profile" and "edit" tabs at the top. I'd like to add some views (friends list, etc) to the profile, putting additional tabs up there alongside the ones that exist. I've tried: 1) Make the path of the view /user/%/friends. The view works just fine, and the tab appears, but that url doesn't keep the same structure that I want on all "/user" pages -- starting with "/member" 2) Make the path of the view /member/%/friends. The view works, but the tab doesn't appear on the profile page's menu, since we're (technically) at /user/x. Leaving the path as /member/%/friends and manually inserting the menu item in template.php would work, but then when you're on the view (when you're at /member/%/friends), the other tabs in the menu wouldn't appear. tl;dr version: Need to add more tabs to a pathauto'd page while keeping the aliased path structure, but the menu system seems to look at the real path, not the aliased path. Any thoughts? Thanks in advance, -D
