Secondary registration
by Roger 13 Aug '12

13 Aug '12

Hi I hope someone can help. On one of our sites, the viewer can create an account and be redirected to the event registration page. However we need to differentiate between members and the public and I can find no way to provide a validation procedure that allows members who have created their account to enter a validation code only known by members so they can be redirected elsewhere. Is there a module that can handle something like this scenario, if not how could I do this secondary login? thanks in advance Roger

Hi Roger, Here is the dries post about drupal 8 road map http://buytaert.net/drupal-8-feature-freeze-december-1st-2012 . And Here are basic features discussion :- http://pixotech.com/blog/drupal-8-roadmap http://buytaert.net/8-steps-for-drupal-8 . Fantastic Thank you for that info. I am still uncertain whether there are significant changes to Drupal 8 over Drupal 7 other than more attention on cloud technology in which we have no interest. Moving from Drupal 6 to 7 required us to build a completely new site and I would not like to do that for Drupal 8 because we have to rework a number of generic modules which while excellent for their purpose do not quite fit our requirements. Regards Roger

Re: [support] New Account creation

Verifying email address for new account. Take a look at the Email Verify module. ? Nancy Seems the above is for Drupal 6. The other problem, Drupal 7 sends response emails to some but not all new accounts. I manually copy'd and pasted the email addr to an email as a test, that D7 faulted on, recipient received my manual email but not when sent from Drupal 7 new account creation. Roger

cron overwriting changes

I have inherited a drupal site and decided to put a poll on the front page. I moved it in the blocks and it appeared as expected but when the cron runs it disappears. Why would this be? Katie

Yeah, I was reaching with the last one, but it turns out it was a PHP setting, which tripped me up on both servers I tried, so probably reasonably common. max_input_vars was set to 1000 which meant that on a big menu with 400+ check buttons for "disable" this link and 400+ checkboxes for weight and all the other inputs on a page, that was being hit; oddly, it caused it to just silently return to the menu page rather than display an error. It was only on a second server where I had access to the logs I found the error. Setting it to 5000 fixed the issue. Pretty much an entire day that cost me. Gah.

No, it's D7, and the javascript thing doesn't make a difference. Changing the weights manually (either by disabling js or using "show row weights") doesn't help. It seems to be something to do with this menu; it's reasonably big (378 items), but nothing outside -50 and +50 as weights. I can adjust other menus from the menu list page; I can adjust individual weights of items on this menu from node pages. I just can't adjust the weights of this specific menu from the menu list page. Odd. >Let me guess: Drupal 6 and if you turn off Javascript in your browser you can adjust the weights just fine? >Nancy >________________________________ > From: DTH > Does anybody have an idea why I can;t adjust adjust the weight of >nodes in my menu. > >I can locally and I am pretty sure the database and code is the same >both locally and remote site (it's under source control, I've repushed >everything to be sure, I've downloaded and restored the database) > >It happened after installing the weight module, but I can't see why >that would do anything, and I've tried uninstalling that and nothing >changes. > >Symptoms are: I go to the admin/structure/menu/manage/main-menu, >change the links there (either by drag and drop or manually), save it, >and nothing sticks. > >It does stick if I edit individual links. > >In menu.admin.inc, I've stuck an exit statement at the top of >menu_overview_form_submit and it doesn't seem to reach there. >

Can't adjust node weight from menu list page
by DTH 10 Aug '12

10 Aug '12

Does anybody have an idea why I can;t adjust adjust the weight of nodes in my menu. I can locally and I am pretty sure the database and code is the same both locally and remote site (it's under source control, I've repushed everything to be sure, I've downloaded and restored the database) It happened after installing the weight module, but I can't see why that would do anything, and I've tried uninstalling that and nothing changes. Symptoms are: I go to the admin/structure/menu/manage/main-menu, change the links there (either by drag and drop or manually), save it, and nothing sticks. It does stick if I edit individual links. In menu.admin.inc, I've stuck an exit statement at the top of menu_overview_form_submit and it doesn't seem to reach there.

by Alok Singh Mahor 09 Aug '12

09 Aug '12

Hi all, by default user's profile in drupal show very little information about users. I can extend that by adding more fields to profiles. but I want user's profile in such a way that it would be showing all his/her information and some more information like users last 10 posted content, top 10 rated content and most commented content etc. how can I extend this type of profile view in drupal? please suggest me, thanks in advance :):) -- Alok Singh Mahor http://alokmahor.co.cc Join the next generation of computing, Open Source and Linux/GNU!!
