Formatting embedded images with media module and wysiwyg
by andy baxter 11 Feb '11

11 Feb '11

Hi, I've made a start on a drupal 7 website. I want to use the media module for handling all images on the site, but the integration with the wysiwyg module isn't as good as I had hoped. I can add images to a wysiwyg text box using the media browser, but the formatting options are very limited. E.g. there's no option to align images left right or centre, set the borders, or to freely change the image display size. There is a list of preset sizes, but this doesn't give much flexibility when laying out a page in the editor. The normal add/edit image button doesn't seem to work with media module images. I'm wondering if I've missed a module or config option I need, or if this is something that's being worked on? If it is, can anyone give me a rough idea of when it might be ready? I'm not in a desperate hurry, but I'm hoping to bring the site live some time over the next couple of months. Thanks, andy baxter.

Drupal 7 fails to install on PostgreSQL

Hi, I've tried to install Drupal 7 on 2 separate systems using a PostgreSQL 9.0 database backend, and both times it has failed at the same point. The error message in the PostgreSQL logs both times is: ERROR: null value in column "rid" violates not-null constraint STATEMENT: INSERT INTO role_permission (rid, permission, module) VALUES (NULL, 'administer blocks', 'block') I followed the instructions in INSTALL.pgsql.txt, and everything else installs up to this point. The actual error message returned on the installation page is: An AJAX HTTP error occurred. HTTP Result Code: 200 Debugging information follows.

Software license generation
by prothero 10 Feb '11

10 Feb '11

Hi. I'm building a store (Drupal 6.20, ubercart.) and want to sell software licenses for students playing an online educational game. The current system (all in shockwave) uses md5 encoding with the salt including a course name and the registrant's email. So, each user or course that is registered gets a unique license. I have considered two possible approaches: 1) Drupal itself generates the license, based on the user's email and the course title they enter. or: 2) I send them to my other app to generate an ID code and they enter it when they purchase a license. With approach 1, the advantage is better Drupal integration and a more streamlined user experience. There would have to be either a separate page where the user enters a course title and instructor email, or integration with ubercart in some way. With approach 2, Ubercart still has to provide an entry field for the ID code and store it on the database, so my app can retrieve it and verify that the purchase has been made. I would verify the license from code within my game. I am expert with the game code (Shockwave), but not with Drupal and PHP. So, option 2 might be easier to implement as long as I can add the field to ubercart. Then, as I become more familiar with Drupal coding, I can integrate it better. Does anybody have any suggestions of modules that might help. The "Ubercart license keys" module seems to rely on pre-existing keys not ones generated from user input. Thanks for any suggestions, Bill William A. Prothero http://earthednet.org/

can't upload image in D7
by Dave Stevens 10 Feb '11

10 Feb '11

Hi, I am new to Drupal and want to set up a site using Drupal 7. I have a test server in my office as a sandbox and I'll use it to build a small site similar to the public one that will ensue. I tried uploading an image to my first page and can't. The image is a small .jpg; it shows up fine in nautilus and seems as if it should work, but every time I get a pink error rectangle telling me the file could not be uploaded. There is already text content on the page that I provided, so it doesn't seem as if it ought to be a permission issue, but after trying several images I get the same result every time. The error message is not very informative, just saying that the image didn't upload. I don't know where to look for more information, references welcome. Using the Zen theme.

Ubercart: how to use different shipping methods for different classes *all in one order*?
by Andy Fowlston 10 Feb '11

10 Feb '11

Hi all, I'm using Ubercart and I have three types of products, each with their own flat rate shipping quote rules: 1. base price of 5, product rate of 0 2. base price of 0, product rate of 0 3. base price of 0, product rate of 1 The difficulty is that if one order has products from different types, then the shipping is cumulative. For example, if I order two products from each category, the total would be 7. I can set up the individual shipping methods fine, I just don't know how to tell Ubercart to add the results together to form the shipping total. I imagine I could inelegantly hack something together that would work. Perhaps it'd work if I made two shipping methods, one with a base price of 0, the other with 5. Then I give each product its appropriate product rate on the product edit form (the same for both shipping methods) and use conditional actions to make sure the appropriate shipping method is used. But seems a bit naff imho. Seeing as Ubercart has such a nice way of representing each of these shipping methods individually, it'd be great to just tell it to sum them up. If that's possible :) Any ideas? Thanks in advance, Andy . . . . . . .

Checked "select different theme" under the system module permissions for the particular role, but users with that role are not able to change the theme. Access administration pages is also set. What am I missing? Regards, Leonard. -- mount -t life -o ro /dev/dna /genetic/research

Organic Groups
by Hasti Ziaimatin 09 Feb '11

09 Feb '11

Hi All, I'm new to Drupal and have recently installed Drupal 7 release version and the Organic Groups (OG) module. However, I can't seem to be able to configure permissions and roles to facilitate our access control specifications. I appreciate your help in providing me with a guideline to enable me to satisfy the following access control specifications: Access control should be implemented for a knowledgebase system that facilitates collaborative knowledge management and research in a particular medical domain. 1. Groups need to be created; these groups represent entities with knowledge and expertise in the particular medical domain 2. Every group has an "owner" that can add members to the group 3. The group owner loads/adds patient cases into the knowledgebase as content for the corresponding group 4. Only members of the group can view these contents 5. Contents loaded/added to a group cannot be viewed by members of other groups 6. Members can only add content to the group/s of which they are a member 7. Specific content in a group may need to be visible only to some members of the group 8. Roles assigned to members of a group should be restricted to only that group unless the group owner specifically assigns that role to the user in another group. 9. We would also like to look into enabling members of a group to have access to a subset of contents from another group. Your help is much appreciated. I also looked at using OG User Roles (OGUR) ; however, this module isn't available for Drupal 7. Kind Regards, Sara

Creating Nodes without Node Admin?
by Luke 09 Feb '11

09 Feb '11

I have a D6 site where a certain role should be able to create content profile nodes. I am using Content Permissions, and Taxonomy Access Control Lite. Tac_lite should not be in the way, as the only vocabulary in use on one of my two content profile types, is not one effected by tac_lite. I want users of the "staff" role to be able to create nodes of two content types which are flagged as content profile types. However, just selecting create and edit permissions for that role on those types, does nothing when I view a user. However, enabling Administer Nodes permission for that role, causes the create links for those content types to appear on each user page as viewed by that role. My question is: is granting administer nodes the only way to make this happen? I would really rather this role not be able to change published status, revision options, and so on. I found all kinds of similar problems on google, but many were from 2009 and earlier, and many also went unanswered, although some had twisty solutions that are hopefully not necessary any more. Any solutions for this? Regards, Luke
