Can we make Drupal to use or display data from external application ?
by Gaurav Khambhala 28 Apr '09

28 Apr '09

Hi, Here I will explain the case: We have a perl based application which has all the business logic and data into it. Can we make drupal to interact with it ? And get data chunks out of it, display it inside Drupal. i.e. we will require to see various reports generated by perl application on that data inside Drupal. What I can think of is, - we can include IFRAME inside drupal pages or blocks. - Make some web services so that Drupal can access it as a web service client. But it seems very difficult to do. Any other idea other than above so that we can use external application's(in our case it's perl) data into Drupal. My apologies, if I have not explained the issue enough. Awaiting suggestions. -- Cheers, Gaurav Khambhala i-hack-at-DeepRoot Linux Getting GNU/Linux to work for you. Faster. Better. Today. Every way. http://www.deeproot.in, +91 80 4089 0000

List Of Descriptions And Files
by Luke 28 Apr '09

28 Apr '09

Hello I need to know the best way or ways to achieve something like this. I know that the answer is probably views, but (1) I don't know how to use them yet; and (2) if there is a module I haven't found yet, I'd rather use that. I want users to select from a list of categories (taxonomy, I would imagine), and for each category receive a list resembling the below. Essentially, I am trying to create a library of title, author, short description, and direct links to the file or files which are related to that description. I figure that each item will have to be its own node, with one or more file attachments, but that is not at all a requirement, so if there is another way, I'm open.

Mailman integration.
by Ámon Tamás 27 Apr '09

27 Apr '09

Hello, I like to use similar to smplenews with some modification. If somebody subscribing to a mailing-list (s)he is adding to mailman database. Same if unsubscribe. Only from drupal admin environment can send newsletters (but maybe it is a mailman setting). Everybody can subscribe to html/plain text newsletter. The administrator can add and remove e-mail addresses to the list. The administrator can modify the default letters in the admin area. Where can I start?

by David Hautbois 25 Apr '09

25 Apr '09

Hi I enabled the private download mode. Now, all the downloaded files are named index.php or IoxjCBnN.deb.part. Is there a way to keep the original filename with this mode ? I use this mode because, I want to track the downloads (with download counter module). Thanks. David.

OG Access Control + Other Access?
by Brian Choc 25 Apr '09

25 Apr '09

Greetings, I've searched around, and while I found a lot of discussion circa 2006, more recent conversation seems sparse at best. Maybe this is resolved and is now awesomely convenient, maybe folks have just given up, maybe I've missed the obvious. Anyway, I'd like to establish broad access control using OG and then fine-tune content access within groups via Taxonomy Access or some other access module. Does OG Access control play nicely with other access control modules? If so, do access permissions AND or OR together? Thanks, Brian

Help greatly needed (and appreciated!) - they should be the same! - why aren't they the same?!
by spaceboy_psy 24 Apr '09

Hello there! I'm having an annoying problem with a News Feed. Long story short, I'm very new to Drupal, trying to help sort out this website that was created by someone else a few years ago, so I apologise if I don't give all the pertinent info straight away, I'll do my best but please ask if more details are needed! It's for Edinburgh's Peace & Justice Centre, so it's helping a good cause. I just don't know what to do in this situation... If you could have a look at this page: http://www.peaceandjustice.org.uk/ you'll see the Recent Features feed, on the right panel. And here: http://www.peaceandjustice.org.uk/news you'll see the Our News feed on the right panel. Previously, they were the exact same feed. I succeeded in creating a new feed for the News page which would only show News items, and editting the front page feed to only show Features and Analysis. BUT, although as far as I can tell I made the News feed to be exactly the same as the frontpage feed, except for the filter, as you will have noticed the headings for each item are different and you can't read the headings on the News page until you hold the mouse over them or Select All text. So I want the appearance of the news feed to be the same as the Recent Features feed on the front page. But after going through all the Administer menus several times the only thing I can find that might help is to edit the colours in the Garland Theme somehow, but I'm reluctant to do this incase it makes some big changes elsewhere - particularly worried I do something that's hard to turn back, like what I've done on the News feed! I'm really hoping there's a really obvious solution to this that someone will recognise immediately, that would be just fab. As I said, please ask for more info if it's necessary, need to get this fixed soon as possible so people can read the news headlines! ^_^ Many many thanks Simon -- View this message in context: http://www.nabble.com/Help-greatly-needed-%28and-appreciated%21%29---they-s… Sent from the Drupal - Support mailing list archive at Nabble.com.

Importing Drupal users from one site to another with passwords
by Sam Cohen 23 Apr '09

23 Apr '09

Hi all, I was wondering if anyone knows of a module that would allow you to import users from one Drupal site to another with the passwords. The user import module allows you to import passwords, but that doesn't help much given they are encrypted. I suppose I can always use the import module and then write a script to move the encrypted pwd from the old site to the new one, but wondering if there's something that exists that does that. Thanks, Sam

Custom error messages for access denied pages
by Brett Evanson 23 Apr '09

23 Apr '09

I want to set the title and error message to a custom message for a few specific pages on my site. I have the logontoboggan module installed and was thinking of modifying that, but my mods aren't taking like I thought they would. I can get the error message to change, but I can't get the call to drupal_set_title to actually affect the title. Does anyone have any ideas on a way to go about this other than hacking the logontoboggan module? Is there a hook I'm not thinking of that I could call to check if a user is logged in, and if they are on a specific url to set the title and everything? Should I just be doing this in the template.php file? Thanks in advance for any ideas. -- Brett Evanson brettev(a)gmail.com
