Entering data into taxonomy
by Roger 29 May '12

29 May '12

I have need to let 6 users add or update data in taxonomy fields which provide drop down menus for Town. Locality and Venue. I have an editor's page and menu for such purpose where those select users can view taxonomy data in views and select from the menu to add a new term to now of the above vocabularies. In Permissions: 'Administer Vocabularies and Terms' permits this but they can alter taxonomy fields and display. Switch off 'Administer Vocabularies and Terms' and the menu items disappear, they cannot add data. Is there any way to allow the users to add taxo data but not have the degree of admin access? I'm a bit stuck on how to do this, help would be appreciated. thanks Roger

Re: [support] "Front Page" module - IE vs Firefox / Safari /
by Daniel Germer 28 May '12

<HTML> <HEAD> <TITLE>Lane Memorial Library, Hampton, NH</TITLE> </head> Usually you must add a doctype definition for IE to not go into quirks mode of some kind, also, all html-tags in modern variants should be lowercase as far as I know, - at least for xhtml. If all that you want is just a custom front html page, there should be no need to make it so complicated, (in drupal 7) you can create a custom front page by choosing a custom node as the frontpage. On there you can disable all blocks and make everything else that you do not want invisible by just adding a line of css to your template: body.front div.region-page-top, body.front div.EVERYTHING_THAT_YOU_DO_NOT_WANT_TO_SEE {display: none;} Also if you have standard columns on the left and right, you might just change their color by creating a subtheme of your theme (look at this site: http://drupal.org/node/225125) and just changing the color for the front page columns: body.front div.YOUR-RIGHT_AND_LEFT_COLUMNS {background-color:#b3e0b8; border:2px solid #dce7d5;} You can also use a tool like webdeveloper toolbar for firefox or something alike to check for problems with your code. Since you seem to not so sure in dealing with CSS and HTML this might be a quick-n-dirty way to make the frontpage look clean (also have a look at: http://tips.webdesign10.com/drupal/how-make-a-custom-front-page-drupal-316.…) Be sure to not make it look like this: http://www.pombredens.com/ or this: http://www.bellads.info/

Howto I removed og, workbench, etc
by Roger 25 May '12

25 May '12

Drupal 7.14. I am happy to report that I believe I may have found a way to get rid of OG and workbench totally for learning purposes in prep for a fresh install. Both leave database tables and data and if reinstalled simply find the old unwanted data. Here's what I did... - First did a backup of the site in cPanel compress and the database in ssh mysqldump. - Checked then cleared Reports ->Recent Log Messages. - Switched off the modules and dependencies in Admin -> Modules. - Then, and this is very important but not mentioned anywhere that I could find, I ran UNINSTALL - the button, top right of the Modules view screen, select modules to remove, this advises that all data will be lost. I think it also cleans out the unwanted tables........But it does not uninstall/remove modules? - Check Recent Log Messages just in case. - Next I ran update.php, then Clear All Caches. - In cPanel I deleted the modules from sites/all/modules. - I ran drush cc #1 to flush caches which don't normally flush with the Drupal Clear Caches. - I then checked mysql -uadminuser -pmypassword, use mydatabase; show tables; to check that og and workbench no longer have tables or data. - Went back to the site as admin, refreshed and all is good, no sign of og or workbench. - Did a fresh drupal.tar.gz and mysqldump .sql of the cleaned database. All Good so far, I hope.... Some may say there is no need to go this extent including flushing caches over and again, but I have found it to be helpful after reading some of the comments and issues. I'm chuffed. Hope this helps someone. Roger

D7: hook_field_extra_fields() + field_attach_form()
by Georg Jaehnig 25 May '12

25 May '12

Hi, I exposed a field in hook_field_extra_fields(): $form_elements['item_description'] = array( 'label' => t('Item Description'), 'description' => t('Item Description (an extra form field)'), 'weight' => -5, ); $extra_fields['entity_example_basic']['first_example_bundle']['form'] = $form_elements; return $extra_fields; Now I thought, by calling field_attach_form('entity_example_basic', $entity, $form, $form_state); in a form callback, it will be attached to $form automatically. But it doesn't. Is there a way to change that? Or do I have to add the form field manually in any case? If I there's no way to attach it automatically - what is the sense in exposing the field in hook_field_extra_fields()? Cheers, -- Georg | http://serchilo.net - command the web

"Front Page" module - IE vs Firefox / Safari / Chrome
by Darrell Eifert 24 May '12

24 May '12

Hi Folks -- I'm hoping someone familiar with the 'Front Page' Drupal module can offer a suggestion. We are using Front Page to provide a custom formatted splash page for our library users. The problem is that code designed to display text inside a green column next to an iframe with Google Calendar centered between an left and right column of standard themed blocks is rendered differently on IE (all versions) than Firefox / Safari / Chrome. I'm using the following initial code: |<HTML> <HEAD> <TITLE>Lane Memorial Library, Hampton, NH</TITLE> </head> <STYLE type="text/css"> div#c1 { float:left; width:260px; height:800px; background-color:#b3e0b8; border:2px solid #dce7d5; color:black; padding:10px; } div#c2 { float:right; } | In Firefox / Safari / Chrome text following an initial <div id="c1"> is properly contained and displayed in a green box, and the Google Calendar is just to the right according to the div#c2 "float:right" column designation. In IE, the green background is missing, the text fills all available space, and the calendar winds up below the text. (I have followed the first column code with <div style="clear:both;">) This is an experimental site hosted on an in-house server, but I would be happy to supply an 'outside' link for anyone kind enough to help me find a solution. Thanks in advance ... Darrell Eifert Lane Memorial Library Hampton, NH Comments
