Re: [support] Malware issues- is there any permanent solution

Did you change your ftp credentials after removing the script? Next you need to find the script that's vulnerable. That can be located at your site but if you're on share server it could be on any other site. You need to contact the provider to make sure everything is right.

It takes 2-3 days. This is happening again and again, and i have to repeat same process each time. Is there any permanent solution for this issue? I am giving the code that gets into the files.

Facebook and OpenSocial
by Henry Chew 20 Apr '10

20 Apr '10

Hi drupalists, I have been trying to fetch profile information from other social sites like facebook, google, myspace etc into drupal accounts/profile and come across several modules as below. The main objective is to import profile information from Facebook, but if there’re other alternatives that supports a bunch of social sites (including Facebook) like OpenSocial, I am open to it too. BTW does openSocial supports facebook at all? - OpenSocial Shindig-Integrator - Giyya Socialize (Paid solution?) - Facebook connect - Google Connect Any recommendations? Thank you so much.

Those that are true "caches" have an expiration field that control the rebuild of the cached data. If you mean the menu, well, it really isn't a cache even though it's rebuild is triggered by the "Clear cached data" button. The menu router data doesn't change unless you add a new module. The custom menu is handled slightly differently than the menus coming from modules but still the menu router doesn't change once you've set the menu. Why do you ask? Are you developing code and not seeing the caches change or is there some production issue you need resolved? -- Earnie -- http://progw.com -- http://www.for-my-kids.com -- [ Drupal support list | http://lists.drupal.org/ ]

I have Apache 2.2.9 webserver already installed but the two closes choices for webserver within the PHP setup are Apache 2.2.x Module and Apache CGI.

I am going to install Drupal but before I can I need to install PHP and when I am installing it asks to select the web server that I wish to connect PHP to. I have Apache 2.2.9 webserver already installed but the two closes choices for webserver within the PHP setup are Apache 2.2.x Module and Apache CGI. Which one should I select? Thanks, John -- John J. Mitchell

Creating Content Node Programmatically and Returning to Tab After Node is Saved, Wherever it was Called From
by Moses Elias (2) 19 Apr '10

19 Apr '10

I've created a new content type. The content type includes CCK fields. Now I want to call it by creating a node and saving it from a tab on certain pages. I want to do this from within a module. The module uses a MENU_LOCAL_TASK as well as a page_callback that's attached to a function to be called from specific locations on the site. When I click the tab I want to the content type to render, then add my information to the node and save it, but after saving to return to my original location. I tried using drupal_goto in the callback. That works fine and it takes me to my node, but it doesn't return me to my original location after the node data is saved. So if I can't return to my original tab, that option is not unsuitable. The other alternative is to use the following sequence of function calls in the page callback function in the following order: drupal_retrieve_form(); drupal_prepare_form(); and lastly drupal_render_form(); At this stage the node form is partially rendering but not all the fields are being displayed. I'm not even certain this is the correct way to programmatically add a node. Can anybody advise about best practices for programmatically adding a node through a drupal module? (I've even increased the module weight by defining it in the install file.) Thanks!

Configuring fckeditor to strip off ms word tags and html tags
by Mutuku Ndeti 19 Apr '10

19 Apr '10

Hellos, I am using drupal 6 and fckeditor for textarea. When users submit applications, they paste directly from word. This pastes with tag like "<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8"> <meta name="ProgId" content="Word.Document"> <meta name="Generator" content="Microsoft Word 11"> <meta name="Originator" content="Microsoft Word 11"> <link rel="File-List" href="file:///C:\DOCUME~1\ENSP4_3\LOCALS~1\Temp\msohtml1\04\clip_filelist.xml" /><o:smarttagtype namespaceuri="urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:smarttags" name="PersonName" downloadurl="http://www.microsoft.com"></o:smarttagtype><!--[if gte mso 9]><xml> <w:WordDocument> <w:View>Normal</w:View> <w:Zoom>0</w:Zoom>" I want to configure fck editor to allow direct pasting from word without using "paste from word" window I have also enabled "full html" for all input formats, but everytime I write somethin on the fckeditor, I get <p> and <br> tags at the end It is a multiligual site.

gmap not visible within a specific theme
by Tracey Hummel 18 Apr '10

18 Apr '10

I have gmaps showing up fine with a theme like garland. When I switch to the Coolwater theme, the map image is not displayed. Any ideas why? Is this something within the css? Coolwater theme has not themeable functions or anything that might be over writing.

Re: [support] Hacked Drupal
by David 17 Apr '10

17 Apr '10

Thanks for this: I've signed up for Sucuri and a few other services to try and get a quick alert if this happens again. Luckily, it seems that as I was running Boost, people only saw the cached static html files and at no point hit the defaced index.php - which explains why it took a while notice. I'm pretty sure now it was an FTP attack and nothing Drupal related: I'm running Kaspersky which didn't pick up anything, but MalwareByte's AntiMalware picked up memman.vxd which looks like a Trojan.

Conditional webform elements?
by Luke 16 Apr '10

16 Apr '10

Is there any way in the webform module, to cause elements, or perhaps all those belonging to a fieldset, to be hidden if a certain value is set in a previous element? Basically, a section such as: Are you filling this out on behalf of someone else? yes/no checkbox Pagebreak element You indicated that you are filling this out on behalf of someone else. Please answer these 10 questions. pagebreak element The part after the first pagebreak, and including the second pagebreak, would not even show up if the user checked "no" on the checkbox. Luke
