Automating install
by robert mena 02 Dec '11

02 Dec '11

Hi, I am studying drupal (drush/make/features) in order to automate the tasks for installing a drupal site. Ideally I'd like to use like site_create.sh and it would download, install the modules, create the database and activate the modules I define. So far it seems that I can do almost everything with drush, drushmake and feature but I couldn't find info on actually creating the database and activating the modules. Anyone care to share experiences with that (urls, tips etc)?

how to set file alt and title attribute using the media.module
by Roman Zimmermann 02 Dec '11

02 Dec '11

Hi, I try to adapt the new media module for my new drupal7-site, but I didn't find anything to set the alt and title attributes for files in the popup of the media-widget. Neither in version 2.x nor in version 1.x. Is there another place where I can set those strings? I also thought about using two fields via the entity-API to store the data, but I think there has to be another way. How do you set title and alt attributes when you use the media module? regards, Roman

FUSION theme in D7
by Broyhill, Gary 02 Dec '11

02 Dec '11

I am just started to experiment with Drupal 7 theming, and I noticed that the Fusion theme is one of the most installed. I did a quick search and didn't find much discussion of it on this list, so I was just wondering if anyone has installed Fusion theme for D7, and how you like it? At first glance it seems like a Panels approach to page layout. I was disappointed to find the Fusion Handbook is all for the D6 version, so that's not good. Anyway, let me know your two cents worth on this. thanks http://drupal.org/project/fusion Gary Broyhill Lenoir-Rhyne University Box 7483, Hickory, NC 28603 828.328.7379 | @trenchdigger | lr.edu >

Slideshow Creator module
by Francis Keyes 02 Dec '11

02 Dec '11

Hi All, Where should I ask questions about modules? I'm just getting into Drupal and am confused about where to get help. I have a specific question about the Slideshow Creator (I have to click twice on prev/next to get the slide to advance) but I'm not sure if this is a Drupal question, Slideshow Creator question, jquery question, etc... Any help is greatly appreciated. Thanks

Views repeating dates
by Roger 02 Dec '11

02 Dec '11

Hi I'm using Drupal 7.9 with latest module updates I have a content type 'Repeating Events' which has repeating dates for the year. Try as I might I cannot get Views to show dates within a range of 10 days from now or today or similar. I have cleared caches with both drush and from <Configuration><Performance> Content-Dates has Short Date, Multiple values set to 1 No sort Criteria It seems that the dates criteria do not reset Views shows only the start date from the database I've run out of ideas on where to look. Has anyone run into this and found a fix please Cheers Roger

Twitter module
by Alexander Garcia Castro 02 Dec '11

02 Dec '11

I have installed the *Twitter module together with oath ( http://drupal.org/project/twitter and http://drupal.org/node/476824).* I also went to dev.twitter.com and registered the application, generating: consumer key and consumer secret -as requested by the Twitter set up. It never asked for a user name and passwd, just the consumer key and consumer secret. I placed the block and nothing happened, when I try the call back url I get : warning: Invalid argument supplied for foreach() in /home1/poapproj/public_html/internacionalizacion/cms/sites/all/modules/twitter/twitter.lib.php on line 266. what am I doing wrong? is this my mistake? a server config problem? or a problem in the module? thanks . -- Alexander Garcia Florida State University Guest Professor http://www.alexandergarcia.name/ http://www.usefilm.com/photographer/75943.html http://www.linkedin.com/in/alexgarciac

I'm using Drupal 7 fresh install with latest module updates, no additional themes. I started getting error messages from the server yesterday and Drupal is now painfully slow, 5-10 minutes to save a cck field or change a field in a view or alter a field in the database. The server is not overloaded 0.2%, Bigpond seems to be running ok traceroute shown nothing of any note to worry about. I'm using ubuntu and fedora 14 pc's Firefox and epiphany both slow. There are no suspicious <Reports><Recent Log Messages> No <Status> faults What should I be looking for and fixing? Just now I got this Javascript error message and would like to ask for some info on the "Internal Server Error" part of the message, got me tossed... Thankyou in advance for any help Roger An AJAX HTTP error occurred. HTTP Result Code: 500 Debugging information follows.

No content types?
by Nancy E Wichmann 01 Dec '11

01 Dec '11

I'm clicking on "Add content" in the automatically created User menu. An overlay comes up and says "You have not created any content types yet. Go to the content type creation page<http://localhost/vcepp/admin/structure/types/add> to add a new content type." I do have two content types. If I add "resource" to the end of that URL (node/add), it will go to the correct form and allow me to create the Resource. Why should I get this message rather than the list of content types? Nancy Sometimes the answer is easy and the question is complicated. -- Dr. Seuss

Hello, Does anyone know of a module that will allow for a <span> in the primary navigation so that two lines of text can be included for a link. Here's an example: http://www.planplusonline.com/pricing_overview (see the dropdown links for "Training" and "Support") Thanks, Lynn Stott
