Pathauto URL Alias Need Help
by Sunil Kumar 31 Aug '08

31 Aug '08

Hi, I am using Drupal 6.4 with Clean URL enabled. My site is multilingal and set Malayalam (an Indian language) as primary language and English as option. I set automatic URL aliases. When I list the URL aliases, all coming OK with good readable URLs. But in the address bar of the browser, the URL is coming with % (percentage symbols) and not readable. Something wrong with my settings (because of Malayalam language) or I missed something? Can somebody help me please? Thanks and Regards, -S- http://chintha.com http://vayanasala.blogspot.com

simplenews - Bouncing emails, Background colour & other issues
by geniekids 30 Aug '08

30 Aug '08

Description I tried my first email newsletter with simplenews. 1. How does simple news handle bounced emails. I am mailing to 7000+ emails. Surely many emails will get bounced. But i did not get any email in the sender email box. Is there a way to check that and get the list of bouncing emails ids. (to clean up the list) 2. I have set Cron throttle to 100 and set Initial send time: 2seconds (default value)). Cron using poormanscron is set to run every 10 minutes. Ae these appropriate settings? 3. Also while composing i had not put any background colour and formatted the html email in TINYMCE. During delivery - only to yahoo email ids - it is adding a ugly background colour which is making it almost impossible to read the email. This is not happening in gmail or hotmail! What could be causing this? 4. Also fundamentally is simple news the "right choice" for emailing something to a large number like 7000+ emails. Should i be looking at some other module or any other mailing package - any recommendations - is mailman a better choice. Though i love the integration of simple news into the drupal website and ease of subscribing offered to the visitors. thanks in advance -- View this message in context: http://www.nabble.com/simplenews---Bouncing-emails%2C-Background-colour---o… Sent from the Drupal - Support mailing list archive at Nabble.com.

Module listing missing in teh web host provider site
by Naresh Vajawat 30 Aug '08

30 Aug '08

Hi, I had a ubercart and drupal based developing site on my localmachine. After I got a web hostiing account I moved my modules ( contributed ) to a similar location on the hosting server. but the modules would not get listed. The location where I placed the folder on my local machine was /drupal/sites/all/ i put the modules in the same folder on my host provider but my modules wouldn't show up in the admin list. This is one of my issues. Another issue which is quite related to this is I imported my DB from local to the server and the tables and everything were copied fine on the server. I checked the record count on each table in the DB and it was same in both the server and on the local machine. But when i change my setttings.php on the server to point to the imported DB it doesn't work. The similar procedure worked when i performed the action on a different local machine. What could be the issue ? Thanks in advance, Naresh

Module using drupal 6 form api
by Praveen Venkatachari 29 Aug '08

29 Aug '08

I'm trying to develop a module for a site using drupal 6 form api the site layout has a content block and a right sidebar. The right sidebar contains a search form (with multiple fields) and the content block contains the search results. Its evident what I'm trying to do. I have a search form on the right-sidebar & once the user submits it, the filtered results show up on the content block. The content is managed by a page-front.tpl.php. I need some advise on how I should go about coding the submit handler. 1. Can I manipulate the content block from the module itself ? 2. How can I retrieve the form entry values from page-front.tpl.php ? Is storing it in a database & retreving later the only option ? If so, how would I refer to the entry since anyone can use the search form (needn't be logged in) thanks

Magazine Images linking to file attachments
by Simon Goldie 29 Aug '08

29 Aug '08

I'm struggling with a problem and being new to Drupal (v5) don't fully understand where to begin. I've created a content type for a staff magazine that also uses the module Image to attach images to content. The content type also includes a file attachment option, for the PDF version of the magazine to be downloaded / viewed online. On the homepage I then created a block using the Views (view 1.0) module which displays the latest issues image but in the view options the "Image Attach: Display Image" only gives me the ability to "link to attached image" or "link to attaching node". What I want to do is have the image link to the attached file. Trouble is I'm at a loss on how to achieve this and trawling the forums has revealed lots of posts about links but almost none with any replies, so after reading through 20+ pages returned when I searched "views links" I guessed I best try and get some help here.

Hosting Suggestions
by Tom Holmes Jr. 26 Aug '08

26 Aug '08

I am using SiteGround.com Drupal Hosting right now, and though a lot of people don't like it, I haven't had any problems yet. I am going to be creating 4 domains that point to one instance of drupal (preferably 6.x). I've seen bad reviews of SiteGround, and Site5, and some positive reviews of: ANHosting, HostGator, MidPhase, BlueHost I was looking at ANHosting since I saw one bad review, and mostly good reviews. I don't need a full VPS dedicated server .... just the Drupal hosting preferably with a good support and good database servers. Thanks! Tom

Image module and node body field
by Pierre Rineau 26 Aug '08

26 Aug '08

Hi, I'm trying to disable 'body' field for Image nodes, but this happens: o I try to disable it throught content type edition, it alway come back after I saved it; o Then, I modified directly into database (table node_type) the content type 'image', disabling it's body field, but when I edit the node, the field stays here; o So, I looked at the module's code, I saw that its hook_node_info() does not provide any information about the 'body' field, so if I configure it to not come back, it should not be here ! o I also looked at _node_types_build()method, but can't see why it fails, and why my 'image' node type (that I get back with node_get_types()) has its 'has_body' attribute to TRUE, it should not be with the database configured ! Any ideas here ? May a module could override the node form don't you think ? Please, help :)
