changing host: dealing with mails
by Augustin (Beginner) 12 Mar '08

12 Mar '08

Hello, One of my web sites is changing host. I have prepared the Drupal files, and used /etc/hosts to test the Drupal site at its new location. Now, I only need to shut down the site, make a last sql dump, import it and then, lastly, change the DNS. But it only now occurred to me that migrating a web server is only half of changing hosts. What about mails? What is a good procedure to migrate all the mails on the server, and also to make sure that no mail is lost during the DNS change (during the propagation of the new DNS)? I have not found a page on the web about a best practice about changing hosts, what data to migrate, what not, and how to be prepared to avoid troubles. Any hints? Thanks. Augustin. --

Override function
by Marolijo - Pol maresma 12 Mar '08

12 Mar '08

Hello, I use views export to generate a CSV. It uses this function to export fields: $value = views_theme_field('views_handle_field', $field['queryname'], $fields, $field, $node, $view); I need to override this function for imagefield type, to output the filepath only. Where should I put it? Thank's! Pol Maresma / pol(a)polnetwork.com PolNetwork.com / Serveis d'Internet msn: marolijo

Chipin for Replacement of Tripod
by Jamie Meredith 11 Mar '08

11 Mar '08

As some may know, during Drupalcon my tripod went "missing". Several people suggested I create a Chipin to get it replaced. Here it is: http://tmgstudio.chipin.com/ Thanks to everyone who came out to Drupalcon. It was a life changing experience for me. (This request was vetted by several core members of the Drupal Community - If you need verification of validity please let me know) -- Jamie Meredith TMG Studio 931-980-7286 (C) 615-464-2301 (O) 615-563-9199 (HO) jlmeredith(a)gmail.com - Google Talk jamieattmgstudio - AIM

'Sticky at top' not working for me
by Jody Cleveland 11 Mar '08

11 Mar '08

Hello, I've got a site running on Drupal 5.7 that sticky just doesn't work with. I've got 5 other sites using the same Drupal installation and none of them have this problem. I'm using a custom theme on that one, and I can't help but think it has something to do with the template. But, I have absolutely no idea where to even start on this one. Any ideas why Stick at top wouldn't work? (it does this for all content types) - jody

current wiki tools in drupal
by Ari Davidow 11 Mar '08

11 Mar '08

We're beginning to describe a Drupal project that we feel is "wiki-ish" and I am thoroughly confused as to what would be needed to implement a "wiki" using drupal. It looks like wikitools provides some filters to translate between wiki markup and regular html, but for our purposes, that is the piece we care about least. (We intend to use tinyMCE or equivalent for markup--the users of this project will not be any happier with wiki markup than with html.) So, what makes a page a wiki? We are thinking of a few primary elements: 1. The ability of any registered user to edit the page in a browser. (Note: Any registered Drupal user with appropriate permissions can do this with any Drupal page, as well.) 2. The ability to view the page's history and to roll back changes easily. (This may also be built into Drupal?) 3. The ability to create a new, blank page by creating a link to it. Are we really just talking about a standard Drupal book? When other people say 'wiki,' to what more are they referring (or is the "what more" wiki markup language?) ari

Teaser begin tag?
by Kaj Kandler 11 Mar '08

11 Mar '08

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hi there, is there a way to tag  the begin and end of the teaser? I publish some press releases, where the form is that you start with a media contact, and date, which is not very suitable for a teaser. So I'd like to tag the teaser start and end somewhere in the first paragraph. Is there such a way or do I have to resort to the nodeteaser module, which I only need for this group of pages?

Re: [support] current wiki tools in drupal - talk vs comments
by Ari Davidow 10 Mar '08

10 Mar '08

> Regarding "Talk" -- from a UI perspective I think it is one of the worst > things about mediawiki. I think that Drupal's stock comments implementation > on the same page as the node is much better than having a talk page on a > separate page. We may have to disagree here. I think of the "talk" page as a place for meta-discussion--discussion about an article, say, if we were to use the MediaWiki example. I would want "comments", were they implemented for a page (MediaWiki doesn't do this, presumably on the assumption that non-meta comments belong as edits in the article) to refer to the =subject= of the article. So, if I write a page on klezmer, and you make some edits with which I disagree, the "talk" page is a good place to hash out administrativia, but if you and I have different views on klezmer, the "comments" section would be a good place for the two of us to discuss (along with anyone else who joined in). Does this make any sense?
