Search results not showing up.

Hello, On nearly all my 4.7 sites, I am having problems with search. The issues are random, but occur on all my sites. After a certain amount of time, results stop being indexed. My search index tells me that all is indexed, though I know, it is not :) When I search for obvious words in newer posts, I get either no results, or too few. Rebuilding the index works. Untill after a random time, then it stops indexing. Indexing stops on one site a time. This has been going on for months. Cron runs just fine, so it seems, and I /am/ running multisite sites, with cron runs on all the sites every 16 minutes, so it could be a memory/CPU issue, though I doubt it, since my watchdog tells me cron ran just fine, and my server is far from choked. Has anyone experienced this too? Has anyone seen any docs on Drupal.org about this specific issue? Does anyone know where to start debugging this weirdness? Bèr

How to have 'featured events'?
by Jody Cleveland 20 Oct '06

20 Oct '06

Hello, I've got a website I'm developing for a library. On the front page will be displayed new events, updated and added pages, etc. What I'd like to do is have a small area on the page that shows a few featured events. Kind of like this site: http://www.aadl.org My question is, where do I start? How do I classify an event as being 'featured', and how do I get a block to only display those items? Thanks in advance for any help you can provide. - jody

lora, thank you. but don't you think that the views module isn't easy at all? I tried it but couldn't do anything with it. I saw it as being very difficult. is there some book that explains it more? I know it's powerful.

You can create a wide variety of blocks this way, including this one you describe. Hope this helps. Best, Laura On Oct 19, 2006, at 4:19 PM, Mohammed Al-shar' wrote: hello.

**********SPAM**********: accessibility of drupal sites
by Mohammed Al-shar' 19 Oct '06

19 Oct '06

dear listers, first, I am sorry to have posted this messages to both the themes and the support lists, but I just am not sure where this would fit more. I am concerned with the accessibility of drupal powered websites for the blind and visually impaired. I have searched the drupal website and read what I could find about this topic but it seems to me that this has received little attention so far. none of the posts I read was elaborate enough. here are some points to contemplate about: 1. for visually impaired users, I want them to be able to change the font size / color / contrast on the fly. one site that does this beautifully, but it's not drupal powered is our strategic partner's website at: www.yourdolphin.com 2. provide keyboard users the possibility of reaching some parts of the website using accesskeys. I know that this method isn't preferred from what I read about it, but may be the listers can share their views about this point. I am blind myself, and never need to use accesskeys as my screen reader has built in commands to reach to various elements on most websites. actually, most modern screen readers have this possibility. I am thinking that structuring the website's documents well will often be most handy. like using different heading sizes, and using bulleted and numbered lists. the project I am involved in currently is for the company I work for, which specializes in assistive technology for the blind and visually impaired. it's at: www.nattiq.info it still requires lots of work, specially that it's going to be multilingual and has a right to left language. still, I would highly appreciate it if some of you could give it a look and steer me in the right direction. any comments will be warmly welcomed. Regards, and thanks in anticipation. Mohammed al-shar'

glossary.module alphabar
by Cheryl Chase 19 Oct '06

19 Oct '06

I'm running glossary.module, with the following version: // $Id: glossary.module,v 1.88.2.2 2005/04/14 17:19:16 frodo Exp $ Drupal 4.6.1, 2005-06-01 It generates an alphabar that has digit links, but they are in a strange order; the "0" is between "g" and "h", and the other digits follow, rather than precede, the letters. Here's the bar that is generated: a | b | c | d | e | f | g | 0 | h | i | j | k | l | m | n | o | p | q | r | s | t | u | v | w | x | y | z | 1 | 2 | 3 | 4 | 5 | 6 | 7 | 8 | 9 Anyone know why this happens, or how to fix it? Thanks, Cheryl

how to get back to admin
by John Hannfield 19 Oct '06

19 Oct '06

I've installed drupal, replaced the front page, and removed the login box. I can log in as admin at example.com/user/admin But I never see the overall admin page, with the menu options down the side for the different parts I can admin. I need to specify them manually on the URL like example.com/admin/settings example.com/admin/modules etc How do I get back up one level, to see the overall admin list page? example.com/admin doesn't do it. Thanks -- John

Re: [support] accessibility of drupal sites

hi Greg, I do agree, bottom line is that people will make what they will make. at least we should try to keep drupal official themes and code adherent to accessibility issues.
