Displaying user's name in profile
by Jacob Roufa 16 Aug '10

16 Aug '10

I've been trying to display the user's name in their profile with no luck... global $user; ($user->name); displays the currently logged in user... Everything I've read says either to use that or profile_load_profile($user); print $user->name; but neither are working and I can't figure out how to use the $account variable either. This is with Drupal 5. Any suggestions? Jake Roufa 208.557.9390 http://jacobroufa.com

Panels node/add not working properly
by Jacob Roufa 15 Aug '10

15 Aug '10

Hey All, I altered my node/add form per Addison's awesome page here : http://www.lullabot.com/articles/modifying-forms-drupal-5-and-6 and for the node/add/content-type page it works great. So I set that up into a panel using the "Node add form" as a context and then adding the general form into the content area I want it. But when I view the panel, all of my form alterations disappear and I'm stuck with the plain original and much-too-complex node form. Any idea as to why those alterations aren't sticking?

I want to display some characters based on roles or something else that could categorize users. Like: !admin #moderator %contributor +donator !Fidelix #Fidelix %Fidelix +Fidelix Got it? I don't want to change usernames directly, i just want to change the output when they're displayed. Thank you.

Re: [support] How do I disable the site RSS Feed?
by Beatrix Willius 15 Aug '10

15 Aug '10

I hate answering my own questions: In admin/build/views/edit/frontpage override the node type to "Blog entry" and remove "Promoted to Front Page" in the filters section of the Feed page. With this the default feed now has the same entries as the blog feed.

How do I disable the site RSS Feed?
by Beatrix Willius 15 Aug '10

15 Aug '10

Hi, I don't want my front page, which has relatively static content, to generate an RSS feed. I can disable the icon with the module RSS permissions. However, the html still has rss.xml in the header and Safari shows this with an icon. An alternative solution would be to point the site feed to the blog feed. But Drupal only allows to override this.

Google CSE Results
by Jacob Roufa 15 Aug '10

15 Aug '10

I've installed Google CSE on a site and it's returning waaaay too many results. It's finding pages that don't exist anymore, test pages and others. How do I stop Google CSE from searching its cached (and now nonexistent) pages? I can't find anything on this topic anywhere so help would be much appreciated. Many Thanks!!

Drush and .htaccess
by Bob Morse 13 Aug '10

13 Aug '10

Drush is so slick. Learning the basics is easy and well worth it if you manage multiple sites (and you have shell access, of course). But does anyone know how to prevent it from overwriting .htaccess? We always configure the url rewrite rules and have to go in to each updated site's file and re-edit it whenever there's a core update like what just happened. Not a huge problem, but it sort of spoils the fun of drush.

Views Sorting Trouble
by Ryan LeTulle 11 Aug '10

11 Aug '10

I have a content type called Academic Program with a node reference field to another content type called Academic Division. I am working on a view to display the info as such: Academic Division 1 Academic Program 1 Academic Program 2 Academic Division 2 Academic Program 3 Academic Program 4 Everything is cool except I am having trouble sorting the Academic Division grouping. It sorts the programs fine beneath the divisions. I am using an HTML list style with Academic Division set as the grouping. Academic Program is the node title. If I use it as the sort the order changes but it is not correct. Academic Division is not available in the sort list. Can this be done from the admin interface? </ryan>

Problems with themes, regions, and blocks. Newbie's so confused!!
by Stanley Ozoemena 11 Aug '10

11 Aug '10

I have a very big problem with the layout of my site. I don't know how to get the theme ACQUIA SLATE to work properly; and there really isn't much documentation on there on the web to help a newbie-to-drupal like me. I'm currently working on the site thedesignmeistergroup.com; and I'm tearing my hair out! :0( I don't know how to put pictures into blocks so that I can, in turn, put these blocks into various regions of my website's theme. I am very sad. I really wish Drupal was as easy as PHP-Nuke. I made the switch stubbornly and blindly; and have been crying every since!
