2 content types feeding 2 separate columns on home page
by Jessica Hannan - Halo Digital Design 09 Jul '12

09 Jul '12

I know I can do this, I am just trying to wrap my mind around it. I am developing a theme / website for a media outlet. They need a column for recent articles and a column for recent videos on the home page. They need to be fed blog-style as they are published. What is the best way to go about this? Thank you SO much! You have all been so helpful! Jessica Hannan 815-545-5541 http://www.HaloDigitalDesign.com Join us on Facebook!! http://www.facebook.com/halodigitaldesign

Modules Disabled After Updates
by Kenneth Jacker 09 Jul '12

09 Jul '12

Drupal7 appears to *disable* modules after updating them. Is that behavior a "bug" or a "feature"? Either way, it sure is inconvenient ... -- Prof Kenneth H Jacker khj(a)cs.appstate.edu Computer Science Dept www.cs.appstate.edu/~khj Appalachian State Univ Boone, NC 28608 USA

Linking to other nodes in a node
by steven＠vermoere.net 09 Jul '12

09 Jul '12

Hello, I'm looking after a solution for the following problem with Drupal 7: I want to add to a node a link to other nodes. When I edit, I want to see a kind of dropdown where I can choose the other node (preferably only 1 kind of node type) and then you see a link with the title to the other node. Is this possible with some kind of CCK-field ? Thank you Steven

Using migrate to import files as nodes and folder hierarchy preservation
by Daniel Germer 09 Jul '12

09 Jul '12

Hi I have managed to retrieve some files from my former plone site I want to transform this site into drupal. All the items (nodes to be) have the following form: id: wichtig title: Haftungsausschluss description: Diese Seite ist nicht vollständig und erhebt keinen Anspruch auf Richtigkeit der Daten. Medizinisches Wissen kann nur durch geschulte Personen richtig angewendet werden. subject: relatedItems: location: language: de effectiveDate: 2008/01/17 13:05:00 GMT+1 expirationDate: None creation_date: 2008/01/17 13:00:54.255 GMT+1 modification_date: 2009/12/09 20:41:11.880 GMT+1 creators: danielig contributors: rights: allowDiscussion: False excludeFromNav: True presentation: False tableContents: False Content-Type: text/html <h2><strong>Wichtiger Hinweis für den Bereich Heilkunst</strong></h2> <p>Sie sollten Informationen aus dem Internet, auch auf dieser Seite, niemals als Quelle für gesundheitsbezogene Entscheidungen verwenden. <a title="Heilpflanze" href="http://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heilpflanze">Heilkräuter</a></p> <p>Auch wenn ständig an ihrer Verbesserung gearbeitet wird, können Beiträge falsch sein und möglicherweise sogar gesundheitsgefährdende Empfehlungen enthalten.</p> So basically I just want to reuse that information to migrate those items into nodes: id is going to my path-alias title is Title language is language ... All the files have proper html as the body text and the description should be what is called "teaser" or Summary in drupal. I have seen that the migrate module has the files.inc as a plugin which might be made for this case. However I have quite a lot of files and need to import the structure of the folder and also images that are also contained within these folders all in place. Ideally the pictures would also become nodes or otherwise available in drupal... Path alias should be preserved so that the old links will keep working. The folder with the files is basically providing the structure for the path alias: (see in the attached text file directory listing of the files... for example it should create a normal file under: heilkunst/psychologie/aerztliches-handeln If migrate is not the module to use which one should I use in my case? greetings, Daniel

Form with GET method - best practice?
by Georg Jaehnig 08 Jul '12

08 Jul '12

Hi, I am quite new to Drupal and I want to build a search form that uses the GET method and that puts only the search value into the GET variables, e.g. the form is on http://mysite.com/search and when the user enters "term" and clicks Submit, he arrives at http://mysite.com/search?q=term Is there a best practice for that? This solution seems to work, http://drupal.org/node/1391612#comment-5420728 however it still additionally puts the "form_id" value into the GET variables. Is there a way to omit that? -- Georg | http://serchilo.net - command the web
