Problem while disabling the Drupal core module - 'comment'
by Rajat Arora 30 May '13

30 May '13

Hello Everyone, I have problem while disabling Drupal core module 'comment' for my web portal (Drupal 6). When I disable this module, the menu items (admin/content) gets removed from drupal backend. The 'admin/content' path of website becomes un-accessible. I have administrator rights and I tried to manipuate permissions (rebuild permissions etc). Any one has some idea if I am doing something wrong in this case? Best Regards, Rajat Arora

Looking for the best way to display content
by Steve Kessler 29 May '13

29 May '13

I am working on a project that hundreds of files attached to nodes with a field field. Each of the nodes also has term references to a type, category and sub-category. I also have field collections that can hold additional categories and sub-categories. The goal would be to get all of the files related to any category | sub-category combo. When I try and do this by using a relationship with the field collection and then filtering on the field collection fields for category and sub-category it does not work. I am looking into why this is but I also need to consider other ways of displaying this information. An example of this would be nodes with A|A, A|B&A|A, A|B, A|A, C|A the query would return the results of A|A, A|B&A|A, A|A I may be over thinking this but appreciate any help I can get. Thanks, Steve -- Steve Kessler Owner and Lead Consultant Denver DataMan, LLC 303-587-4428

Mass E-Mail in Drupal 7
by Kamal Palei 29 May '13

29 May '13

Dear All I have some doubt regarding mass email in Drupal. Lets say I want to send mass email to 5000 users at a time from a custom module. In custom module, I have to make use of drupal_mail() to send email. Now do I need to loop through 5000 times and send the mail, or is there any way I can send mail to 5000 users. Can I put 5000 email ids in CC or BCC . If so, with drupal_mail, how can I put the mail ids in CC or BCC list. Is there any limit how many email ids I can put in CC / BCC. Note: Once I tried to sending 3500 mails, in a for loop. Each email id I did put in to field. Looks some of the users did not get email. I am wondering what is wrong and why some users did not get mail. Thanks kamal

Re: [support] Captcha and spam issues

One method I've used is to only give trusted users the privilege of posting. I allow for the user to register and accept that registration based on the first logon mail link. Then if they want to post, comment or wiki, I have another role set to assign to them based on asking me. It keeps the SPAM off the site. The other method is to use a service such as Mollom. See http://drupal.org/project/mollom for more.

Custom print template help..
by Wipe_Out 28 May '13

28 May '13

Hi, I have a content type that creates a basic invoice.. I now need to create a formatted printable invoice using the data shown on the invoice.. I have installed the print module which created the "printable version" link.. I now need to customise the layout.. This is a non-programmer talking so please be gentle and verbose.. :) I created a "print--node--invoice.tpl.php" in my theme directory and copied the tpl.php file from the print module directory to get me started.. So far so good.. Now where I have got stuck is putting in the individual fields where I want them.. There is a $content variable used in the example but that just shows everything.. How do I tell the template where I want individual fields? So for example say I want to output the field_inv_num value? Thanks..

Drupal 7 + AJAX + Java Script issue
by Kamal Palei 27 May '13

27 May '13

Dear All I have used previously Drupal 7 form with AJAX. But first time using along with java script. I am facing a typical issue as explained below. Kindly check if you can help out or give some pointer to fix it. I have a page, where I am presenting 100 users data to a logged in user. We need to send mass email for certain users. So I have provided one checkbox per user. Logged in user selects few checkboxes and tries to send mass email. I have buttons "show email form" and "hide email form". Using AJAX I am able to show the email form (having subject and body fields, and "send email" button etc) and hide the email form (just by clicking "show email form" and "hide email form" buttons). Till this point it works nicely. While I am trying to send email, I enter subject, mail content and press "send email" button which is present in AJAX area div. To my surprise when I click "send email" button corresponding submit handler is not invoked, hence not able to send email. I have a java script, that just does Select / Unselect all for all checkboxs. Can somebody point out is it a known issue and how do we overcome it. Thanks kamal
