Drupal as a simple document management system
by Mohan Radhakrishnan 21 Aug '11

21 Aug '11

Hi, I am trying to evaluate some document management solutions based on these requirements. The problem is that many of these tools are full-fledged ECM solutions. I think Drupal is one of them. Is there a way to use Drupal as a simple document management system based on these requirements ? I will try Drupal if that is what is recommended but any opinions or comments will also help. Thanks, Mohan Requirements : We have a systems that receives and generates files and reports with financial data. These files could reside in the disk or they could be generated by the system. In the case of files in the disk we need to specify archival policies that the tool will use to move the files to its repository. We want to archive the reports generated on-the-fly by the system by invoking the webservice API of the tool. We want to associate custom and standard annotations and metadata with these documents using the tools’ thick or think client or the WebService API. We also want to retrive and search these documents using the thick or think client or the WebService API. Document history is also required. We want to view these documents in the browser. Some of these documents could be encrypted on the disk and they have to be decrypted before viewing. Volume labels should be associated with these document repositories so that the clients or the API know how to retrieve them and also support multi-tenancy.

views page and block question
by Jim Ruby 20 Aug '11

20 Aug '11

Hi, I created a view with a block I want to have a title as a link and summary displayed the link will link to the page that I created with the view so it will display the way I want it, but I only want it to display the content for that node and not the entire page of content type. So in my block I modified the path to the page path of the view, but is there a paramitor I need to add so it just shows the current linked node? Gosh I hope that makes sence. Thanks for any help.

multiple taxomony vocabularies and content types
by Dick Hoogendijk 19 Aug '11

19 Aug '11

I'm new to Drupal. I worked years with TYPO3 (nog an easy CMS) but am a little overwhelmed using the menu interface as administrator. I want to use multiple vocabularies linked to i.e. the article content type. However, all I see is the Tags vocabulary to choose from or add words to. Do I understand it correctly that for *every* vocabulary I have to add a new field in the "manage fields" tab in the content type I want to use this vocabulaty in?

strange problem any suggestions
by Jim Ruby 19 Aug '11

19 Aug '11

Hi, I have several drupal sites and they all work just fine I use views to create a download link under drupal 7 and the link is correct, but my browser goes to a blank page. The link looks fine, and I can't figure this out, writing to support they say it works fine for them. Why would just one site just act up like this. I'm about ready go give up on drupal 7 and go back to drupal 6. I've cleared cach in ie 8 and firefox v5, cleared the cach in drupal under performance and still nothing. Would anyone have any ideas how I can track this down? I'm not seeing nothing in the error logs either.

question about content type and search results under drupal 7
by Jim Ruby 19 Aug '11

19 Aug '11

Hi, I have created a content type that I do not want to display author and date. So I unchecked the box. And it works, now when I do a search in the search results I see the author and date, how can I have the search results not display this information on the results page? Thanks.

Updating Themes and modules in Drupal 7x
by Roger 19 Aug '11

19 Aug '11

When I try Drupal 7 to update a theme of module it wants the username and password of my FTP. Why? Lately if I use drush up for modules Drupal 7 breaks and has to be reinstalled. How do I tell it the FTP of my home pc when I am using home pc? What FTP details does it need to update themes and modules on a remote server? Mine or the secure ones for the server of some login detail for Drupal.org I see no reason to use username and passwords when it clearly states that it is a breach of security? Anyway, is the any way to securely use the update process in Drupal 7? I haven't found a tutorial that discusses this in detail and gives precise methods to use the update tool. Can someone help please thanks Roger

theme question
by tony maciejowski 19 Aug '11

19 Aug '11

Dear All, I am using a subtheme of genesis. I want all pages to have padding in the content area EXCEPT the view I constructed. So 1 page from ten should have no padding in the content area. How to do? Tony PS I know it must be very, embarrassingly simple but then how does one learn except to ask the so-called 'stupid questions'. -- *tony maciejowski** | analyst/programmer | websites | tony(a)tony-mac.com<t_maciejowski(a)hotmail.com> * *Twitter: anntosh* | *Cell: 323.899.6206* | *Linked-In:* *Anthony Maciejowski*

New Question with Multisite
by EPA WC 16 Aug '11

16 Aug '11

Thanks all for your help. I was able to get site1.dev and site2.dev going locally with my single drupal installation. But I have a new question. Let's say I want to share my new site1.dev and site2.dev in progress with someone on the Internet, how can this person get access to them with my server's ip address? Is this possible? If not, how can I do it? Again, I don't have actual domain names set up yet. Thanks in advance!
