very dissappointed with part of drupal 7
by Jim Ruby 12 Aug '11

12 Aug '11

I am trying to create an action to send email when a page is created. The fields are accessible, but I can not access any of the tokens. It is not accessible with my screen reader window-eyes http://www.gwmicro.com version 7.5.1 using drupal 7 I see the following and none of it will appear as clickable links or anything. Would some one be willing to send me a list of all of the tokens I can use in the subject and body? I'll just manually ad them. I have troed it in ie 8 and firefox version 5. Click a token to insert it into the field you've last clicked. NAME TOKEN DESCRIPTION Array Tokens related to arrays of strings. Content types Tokens related to content types. Current date Tokens related to the current date and time. Current page Tokens related to the current page request. Current user Tokens related to the currently logged in user. Dates Tokens related to times and dates. Files Tokens related to uploaded files. Menu links Tokens related to menu links. Menus Tokens related to menus. Nodes Tokens related to individual content items, or "nodes". Random Tokens related to random data. Site information Tokens for site-wide settings and other global information. Taxonomy terms Tokens related to taxonomy terms. URL Tokens related to URLs. Users Tokens related to individual user accounts. Vocabularies Tokens related to taxonomy vocabularies.

views help overwriting a field
by Jim Ruby 12 Aug '11

12 Aug '11

Hi, I am using drupal 7 and views 7 I would like to make a view using the file field. I can get it to display the complete path to the file name Sites/default/files/filename.mp3 I have it displaying the file name as a link using a token that is shown in the view, but I would like it to say "download - filename.mp3" and maybe the file size As a link. No matter what I try I can not get the file name to be shown and the link snows up as Site.com/filename.org And not the complete path, do I need to put sites/default/files/ in manually? I hope not as I shuld be able to get the path to the file it is there I've seen it and when the link is the file name the path is correct. Thanks for any help.

Field Groups
by Ms. Nancy Wichmann 11 Aug '11

11 Aug '11

I need to include two fields as pairs. There is an "important date" and "reason" which must always match up. And if another date is needed, then another "reason" needs to be generated with it. Maybe I'm just seriously confused, but Field Groups doesn't seem to do this. How can I get these pairs to match up? And they need to stay matched in Views as well. Injustice anywhere is a threat to justice everywhere. -- Dr. Martin L. King, Jr.

Re: [support] Portfolio page suggestions in Drupal 7
by tony maciejowski 09 Aug '11

I must say it is incredibly frustrating to me that there is no decent documentation for a lot of things in Drupal. There is no where I can go to read step by step what I should do to set up a Gallery of images as Cesar described above or a slideshow, as I have tried to do: successfully it seems but I have no idea how I did it. http://www.tony-mac.com/drupal/waldo#overlay-context=portfolio_view <http://www.tony-mac.com/drupal/waldo#overlay-context=portfolio_view> All I did was define a new view and entered the title and suddenly I got a slide show of all content, with my attempted Gallery Formatter content types mixed in. I was such a big fan of the IBM manuals! So exact; so clear. On Sun, Aug 7, 2011 at 3:22 PM, Cesar Covarrubias <cesar(a)consultcdc.com>wrote: > I think there is an issue with your drupal install.

Re: [support] Why would an upgrade to the Plus_1 module mess up some (javascript?) pull-down menus?

Looking at it in Firebug, there's an error in line 9 of jquery.plus1.js: jQuery('.' + Drupal.settings.plus1.widget_class, context).each(function () { The error is given as "Drupal.settings.plus1 is undefined".

About upgrading to Drupal 7
by Tina Williams 09 Aug '11

09 Aug '11

I have set up our new site on Drupal 6 with CiviCRM for our membership. However, since we aren't live yet, and won't be for a month or so, I wonder if I should upgrade everything NOW to Drupal 7 so we have that all done? Any reasons NOT to do that? I believe CiviCRM works on Drupal 7 now, right? We also want to have a shopping cart, and it looks like using Drupal Commerce in ver 7 would be better than Ubercart in ver 6, right?? Or not?? Thanks, Tina

Why would an upgrade to the Plus_1 module mess up some (javascript?) pull-down menus?
by Chris G 09 Aug '11

09 Aug '11

I have been slowly working my way to finding which module update had caused this problem, finally found it today, updating the Plus_1 module from version 6.x-2.6 to version 6.x-2.7 breaks the pull down menus on this site. The working site is:- http://www.globaloptimists.org/ I have a copy, with Plus_1 updated to 6.x-2.7, at:- http://globaloptimists.isbd.net/ As you can see the menus at the top are permanently pulled down on the updated site. Can anyone suggest where I should be looking to see what is causing the problem? It's not urgent as I'm quite happy to leave Plus_1 at version 6.x-2.6 for the present. -- Chris Green
