Re: [support] Dynamic Menus That Work OK Without Javascript

I turned off javascript in my browser and the menus no longer work. In fact, the whole page loses a lot of theming when javascript is turned off. I believe those menus are completely dependent on javascript. Am I missing something? I don't know how you could achieve this without at least some javascript or flash.

They don't expand out anymore, but if you click on animals you get to the other links on a resulting page. If that's your goal then whether or not that "works" using the Nice Menus module is dependent on your configuration of your site. It's still possible using nice menus.

Customizing Organic Group Pages
by Mike Hartman 17 Jun '06

17 Jun '06

I'm using organic groups and it's working very well. However, I'd like to change some of the wording on a group's main page for the different sections, ie the "book page", "forum topic" section headings. and also in the OG block where the user has the option to "create book page" or "create forum topic". These do not seem to be in the language strings under Administrator/Localization, and I can't find them in the ca.po file in the OG module. Does anyone know where these settings are and how to change them? Thanks Mike

adding content from mysql command line?
by dondi_2006 16 Jun '06

16 Jun '06

Hello, what if one has a **lot** of html files (*), each of which should become a drupal node in an already built and categorized drupal site? Is there any way to load them in the website automatically, with some shell script which prepares the mysql query and then feeds it to the mysql client from the command line? This would be soo much faster than creating content from the browser, one node at a time :-( TIA, O. (*) assuming that the html has been previously cleaned up of bogus codes and tags by another script, of course

RE: [support] Menus
by Metzler, David 16 Jun '06

Yep this works. I've done similar things to make blocks appear on specific pages. You don't technically need path_auto to accomplish this. If you use the path module, you can manually set up each page with a path (e.g. news/todaysnews). What pathauto does for you is to automatically set the "path" alias names based on content type and/or taxonomy term plus the page title. You can always override a particular page by specifically setting its path, provided you have the path module enabled. Menu sections can easily be reorganized into different blocks by following the basic steps. 1. Make sure menu module is enabled and add a menu item. 2. Make sure you have administer menu priviledges. 3. Make a new menu block using "Add a Menu" under Administer->Menus 4. Move or add a menu item to your new menu by changing its "Parent Item" to the newly created menu. 5. Now go to Administer->Blocks to control the placement of your newly created menu block in the normal way, as well as which paths it might appear on.

theme search box button next to field
by Anisa 16 Jun '06

16 Jun '06

I am trying to document adding more features to the interlaced theme here: http://drupal.org/node/68507 By features, I mean like the search box, avatars, etc. My idea was a lot of times you fiddle and fiddle, but how do you know what to fiddle with? Anyway, even if it doesn't help anyone else, it helped me think things through. It was relatively easy to get a working search box in the header, but theming it has been a *lot* of trial and error. I have gotten it positioned correctly, but I can't understand why the search box button is underneath the field, instead of next to it as it is in the search box, as it is in other themes. Any suggestions? Anisa. -- ********************************* www.AnimeCards.Org 16,000 scans and counting! *********************************

If so how....? You can use a custom block with php if-then conditions or switches. Not sure if there is an easier way. If you don't know how to code, it is perhaps better to make separate blocks with the menu links in them and only set their visibility in block admin pages, otherwise you can make one block with different PHP conditions to display the links as they should be per page. Hope this helps. Regards, Kobus
