More than one add to cart buttons on a product page
by Mukesh Agarwal 17 Jul '13

17 Jul '13

Hi, Is there a way I can create multiple add to cart buttons on my product page, one for each attribute? With an attribute you have options like select, radio, checkboxes, etc, my question is what would it take to have add to cart buttons for each attribute. I would be more than happy to work on a patch for the same but I did not want to hack the core ubercart module. There are a lot of use cases for this as it is sometimes important to highlight all your attributes in a unique way. Any suggestions help will be appreciated. Cheers, Mukesh

Drupal appache solr tika fileattachment indexing
by Kamal Palei 03 Jan '13

03 Jan '13

Hi All I am trying to integrate apache solr (3.6.x), tika with Drupal 6.26. I found normal site contents (such as nodes, page types, panel types) are getting indexed. I can go to apache solr home page and serach some phrases and can see the results. Even file attachment also getting indexed but only from defined node types. For example, if I attach a file while creating content from Stoy or Page or Panel type, that file is getting indexed. *This ENSURES the integration of drupal 6.26/SOLR-3.6/TIKA is working fine.* BUT, I have a custom module and it provides a custom form to users to register their details. and attach their resumes as well. When they submit the form, I call Drupal file_save_xx api to save the file in a custom path. In this case files are not getting indexed. Has anybody tried this thing previously. I searched quite a lot but could not get any proper documentation in this regard. Any suggestions/pointers highly appreciated. Thanks Kamal NECS, Bangalore

Which one is better apacheslor_file or apachesolr_attachments
by Kamal Palei 15 Dec '12

15 Dec '12

Dear All I am bit confused which module I should chhose apacheslor_file or apachesolr_attachments. My requirement is as below. 1. I have a custom form 2. Users can fill their data and upload their document, say their resume 3. Want the somebody search for users having particular skill set, searching should be done in their uploaded document (say resume). As I understand, apachesolr_attachments is useful when one file is attached to a node. In my case, I will not have a corresponding node . So it looks to me the appropriate module may be apacheslor_file. I tried using both modules (one at a time), and found apachesolr_attachments is working really good (with tika as well), however with apacheslor_file, got some errors while trying re-indexing. So my questions are 1. Which module will be more appropriate for above requirement 2. In case of apacheslor_file, how do you verify if a file is really indexed or not. Any pointers are highly appreciated. Thanks kamal necs, blr

undefined function field_attach_load() when installing D7.12
by Prothero William 30 Nov '12

30 Nov '12

Folks: This is very frustrating. I am trying to install a virgin version of Drupal 7.12. I am getting an error message: Fatal error: Call to undefined function field_attach_load() in /home/sbjazz/public_html/includes/entity.inc on line 320 The line in question is: (in the entity.inc file) field_attach_load($this->entityType, $queried_entities) Apparently, the field_attach_load function doesn't exist. How should I proceed? Is the installer broken? I did check that the functio is in: modules/field/field.attach.inc It is present. Thanks, Bill Prothero William waprothero(a)gmail.com

Backup Approaches - Which Do You Use and Why?
by Kenneth Jacker 03 Nov '12

03 Nov '12

Though I am sure that there are more, I can think of at least four ways to backup a Drupal site: * Drush's 'archive-dump' (ard) command (Backup your code, files, and database into a single file.) * The 'Backup and Migrate' (B&M) module (simplifies the task of backing up and restoring your Drupal database) * Use a "version control system" (VCS) * Use 'rsync' B&M allows automatic scheduling of backups ... definitely an advantage. 'ard', on the other hand requires manual, 'cron' or scripted invocation. *I* seem to favor 'ard' since it backs up *code and files* along with databases. B&M, apparently, only backs up databases. Another approach might be using a VCS (e.g., 'git', 'subversion', _et al_) ... or keep synchronized copies with 'rsync'. (These two, however, seem more suited for maintaining "development" and "production" versions of a site than for backing up.) How do *you* periodically backup your site(s)? Thanks for your comments! -Kenneth -- Prof Kenneth H Jacker khj(a)cs.appstate.edu Computer Science Dept www.cs.appstate.edu/~khj Appalachian State Univ Boone, NC 28608 USA

Spammers

I have several drupal sites and I constantly get barraged with requests for accounts. I have Image CAPTCHA setup on all these sites and still I'm still getting 20 requests a day, mostly from China. Anyone able to share what these people/automatons are trying to do? How are they getting through CAPTCHA? How can I stop them? I am running a pretty old version of Drupal on a couple of sites, but even with almost current versions they flood in. Thanks for any help you can offer. --- Wayne Johnson, | There are two kinds of people: Those 3943 Penn Ave. N. | who say to God, "Thy will be done," Minneapolis, MN 55412-1908 | and those to whom God says, "All right, (612) 522-7003 | then, have it your way." --C.S.

[hostel] Booking module
by Thomas Bétrancourt 31 Oct '12

31 Oct '12

Hi! I'm writing a drupal 7 module for an hostel. I've to manage some entities : - room categories - rooms (one room is attached to a category) - prices (a price is attached to a category ; several prices could be attached to one category with different time periods) - services (service room, ironing, breakfast...) : one or several services could be attached to a category Each of these entites must be translated in four languages : en / fr / de / es. If I a create one "Content type" for each of these entities, i'll be able to manage my entities instances. For example, i've a Content type "room_category", then i'll create "Category 1", "Category 2"... Now, if i add a translation, i'll be get four nodes because drupal create one node per language. If in my module i want to manage the price for a room category, i've to create a price for the category in english, in french... Is there a way to translate each node without create a node per language ? Thank you for your replies. -- *Thomas Bétrancourt* Tél. : 06.34.04.75.36 Fax : 09.72.26.10.48

I think we may find that it's actual live people doing this and getting paid for it. Blocking their their ip address is almost useless as blocking their email addresses which are almost always phony. The only way I can see is for captcha to be quite different. Our sites could have a random series of say 10 or 20 images so that for every request a different image is displayed. To request membership or to log in, a real person would have to answer questions about the displayed image. Roger
