how to use an argument to get a row to appear first in a View
by Idan Arbel 28 Mar '11

28 Mar '11

Hello, I have a views slideshow, and in some cases I'd like a certain node to appear first in the order, I don't really care about the rest of the nodes just to move a certain node to be first in the slideshow. I'm looking to achieve this using an argument, maybe sending in the nid, or even better a certain value for another field. This is the use case - I have a slideshow of a certain product, where each row/node is a different color. I have a page with a bunch of these slideshows for different nodes. I'm looking for a way to have list page, display all the slideshows where the "Green" color nodes appear first, this is for a D7 site with drupal commerce - you can see it here: http://www.premiumbaby.co.il/koziol/drupal-7.0/%D7%9E%D7%95%D7%A6%D7%A8%D7%9 9%D7%9D Any pointers would be much appreciated. Idan

Facebook

Hi all, I want to embed the status updates of a Facebook profile on a Drupal site. My understanding is that Facebook dish out a JSON representation of your data (http://graph.facebook.com/ACC_ID_/feed&limit=5) and I saw this guide on how to implement it but its not actually very detailed; http://thereisamoduleforthat.com/content/ingesting-facebook-stream-using-fe… Can anyone expand on this, or explain a better method because I can't get this to work (mostly because they haven't actually explained it very well for beginners like me!). Thanks, -- James. http://www.jamesbensley.co.cc/ There are 10 kinds of people in the world; Those who understand Vigesimal, and J others...?

how can I hide left&right column on forum-pages?
by Jarry 26 Mar '11

26 Mar '11

Hi, I'd like to hide left and right column on all my forum-pages and use the whole width for central column (displayin topics). How could I do that? I know there is a "page specific visibility settings" for each block, which I could use. But how can I filter all forum-related content out, and nothing more? I left "show on every page except the listed pages" setting activated, and in "page" I put: forum forum/* It works well, but only for all forum listing-pages. When I click on certain forum-topic, blocks are displayed again, because url is "/content/<topic>". And that is the problem: if I add "content/*" to the above mentioned settings, it will work, but for every content on my web-page. And I do not want it for every content, only for forum-content. But I do not know how to distinguish between forum-content, and generally any content...

Auto email node content
by Ayath ULLAH 26 Mar '11

26 Mar '11

Hi Guys, I've made some custom content types with two fields: "question and answer". I'd like all my site users to get an email with a question everyday. So I'd like the email operation to loop through the content type from the begining and send an email on every cron run. Are there any modules to help me do this? Another feature I'd like is the ability for users to submit their answers to the questions they get emailed. Are there any ways to automate this so I can compare the submitted answer to the stored answer for that question? Many thanks for your help. Kind regards, Ayath ULLAH Ayath Ullah | Free Webhosting http://ayathullah.co.cc

Hi, I am using drupal 7, and views 2. I created a content type one of whose field is a term reference. In of my views i would like to use this field as a exposed filter. But I am unable to switch it to a select list option. It always defaults to the textfield. Has someone tried to do something similar, is there a way around this? Thanks, Praveen

Views help
by Joel Willers 25 Mar '11

25 Mar '11

If I have a View and want a certain sort order, how would you guys approach it? My solution is to just break it apart in the tpl.php file, but I’m curious if there’s a better way. So let’s say we have days of the week (just an example, could be other items, but this seems universally available). I can’t sort alphabetically, I need it to be Sunday, Monday, Tuesday, etc. Thoughts? Joel

Joel, In the case where the data I want to sort on isn't sortable I create a new field that is. So if it's day of the week then I'll create a day_idx field eg. Sunday - 01, Monday - 02 etc.. hth, Marty At 10:18 AM 3/25/2011, you wrote: >Content-class: urn:content-classes:message >Content-Type: multipart/alternative; > boundary="----_=_NextPart_001_01CBEAF7.940E9931" > >If I have a View and want a certain sort order, >how would you guys approach it?Â My solution is >to just break it apart in the tpl.php file, but >Iâm curious if thereâs a better way. > >So letâs say we have days of the week (just an >example, could be other items, but this seems >universally available).Â I canât sort >alphabetically, I need it to be Sunday, Monday, Tuesday, etc. > >Thoughts? > >Joel -- http://www.face2interface.com/ https://addons.mozilla.org/af/firefox/addon/181910/

Agreement for every download
by Matthias Fechner 25 Mar '11

25 Mar '11

Dear Drupal list, I search for a module that ask the user to agree on a text every time they download a file (files are stored as private). I think about an own content type (downloads) for this kind of files where the file is stored in a cck field. Maybe already on a Drupal 7 site. Is such a module available that asks the user every time they download a file to agree on a text displayed? PS: I searched on the drupal site and found: http://drupal.org/project/agreement http://drupal.org/project/terms_of_use http://drupal.org/project/legal But these modules seems to be user related and not related to a content type/note where it asks every time to accept it.
