Users Unable To Change Themes
by Rick Friedman 09 Jun '06

09 Jun '06

I am running Drupal 4.7.2 on my site (which I am just starting up). Right now, I have the offline notice displaying when anyone goes to the domain while I configure it. I have enabled several themes for testing: Pushbutton (default), Friendselectric and Sands. Under the admin account (user/1) if I select "My Account" from the menu, I can change my account's theme configuration and select between the three, enabled themes. However, if I logon as a normal user and then select "My Account" from the menu, there is no option the user's account page to change to theme configuration. Normal users cannot change the theme from the default. Anyone have any idea what could be wrong? Any help is greatly appreciated. Rick

Re: [support] Primary + Secondary links
by Kobus Myburgh 09 Jun '06

Marc, That URL seems to be malformed in Drupal context - where did you get that from? It seems as if you're trying to add some CSS class to the URL. Could this be something in your theme perhaps where your HTML is not properly formed? Did you edit any of the module files directly? Based on the URL you provided, you aren't using clean URLs, so to get to the menu setup, you need to go to http://www.mondo-erotico.com/?q=admin/menu Regards, Kobus >>> marc(a)mondo-erotico.com 6/8/2006 5:34:03 PM >>> Hi, Since making a few changes to my site, these links are now not functioning. Can somebody explain how these relate to the Menu links I set up in the Admin panel? example - edit primary Links: http://www.mondo-erotico.com/%3Fq%3Dadmin/themes/settings%22+class%3D% 22active Gives 'Page Not Found', so how can I fix these? Just one of many questions....

acidfree/filemanage module installation problem
by david 09 Jun '06

09 Jun '06

I've moved filemanager module and acidfree directory to drupal/modules, and both appear in my modules list. Problem 1: I did this to set up mysql (as suggested in docs): david@test:~/howto $ mysql -u acidfree -p acidfree < /var/www/drupal/modules/acidfree/acidfree.mysql Enter password: ERROR 1146 at line 47: Table 'acidfree.variable' doesn't exist I assume I'm supposed to edit that last line in the acidfree.mysql file, but not sure how. Problem 2: I activated filemanager (check next to the filemanager name in the modules list and save configs, then gave permissions to authenticated users). When I try to activate acidfree i get this message: The 'Filemanager' module must be enabled for Acidfree to work. Please download it from the drupal modules site and enable it below. Any suggestions what I'm doing wrong? Thanks, David.

I made the mistake of giving the customer complete admin rights and creating a role for myself. Now I don't have access to the access of roles. and he can't find it. Is there a way in the database to give my user acct access to the Access mod?

Aggregator not showing Catagorize boxes after upgrade to 3.7.2
by Wayne Johnson 08 Jun '06

08 Jun '06

Our admin just upgraded our Drupal to 3.7.2 and now I find that all the checkboxes in the Aggregator Catagorize tabs are gone. We tried http://drupal.org/node/47267 but that didn't seem to help. Don't seem to see anything else that might fit. Any suggestions.

free tagging limited number of terms?
by Anisa 08 Jun '06

08 Jun '06

A couple of users have asked about this in the forums, but I'm not seeing any answers. I have potentially big category called Anime Series, it is not possible for me to put in every one, new ones come out all the time, etc, etc, so free tagging is a great idea. I was cheating and using test posts to generate large numbers of taxonomy terms through free tagging when I found I couldn't enter in more terms than the actual length of the field. So, for example, I can't enter in 20 terms. Admittedly, at the time I was cheating, but in one of the planned features of the site, 20 Anime Series tagged for a node is entirely possible. I looked around the taxonomy module, and there appears to be a maxlength of 100 defined for a free tagging text field, but changing that just made the little circle thing go round and round when I went over the line. Beyond that, I don't know what to do and I don't want to mess with the taxonomy module code. Suggestions, ideas, thoughts? I think it's a bug, but...

Re: [support] Help with getting new site set up and running?
by Kobus Myburgh 08 Jun '06

Marc, I have a few pointers for you: 1. You need a nice theme. Look at the Drupal themes pages to see if there is one that better suits the need of your site than the standard ones. 2. Your primary links are missing some weights (to make the order correct). Otherwise I don't see a specific problem? Unless you figured it out since you sent this mail? Regards, Kobus >>> marc(a)mondo-erotico.com 6/7/2006 6:34 PM >>> Hi, This is my first post here, and I hope somebody can help. I'm based in South West London, UK I've recently upgraded to Drupal 4.7, although I hadn't actually even set my site up in the previous version i was running. I've also installed a few modules too. Basically, everything is a mess, and I'm really not sure where to begin. I've been trying to figure Drupal out for two months now, and I'm getting nowhere. Here's my original website which I want to replace with a Drupal site: http://www.vidmarc.demon.co.uk/mondo-erotico/index_home.html It's a large site with a Home Page (latest UK and US cult DVD news), and news pages for 4 movie directors, plus extensive filmographies and other information. Hhere's my Druapl attempt of site: http://www.mondo-erotico.com/ Not much there, as you can see. Can somebody suggest where to begin? I'm having trouble working out how to set everything up (i'm used to writing in HTML) so this is completely new for me. I'm also confused about getting graphic links onto the site and layout in general. I really didn't think it would be this confusing, sadly.

RE: [support] Why doesn't Drupal sees the "files" folder?

Can it be changed to be inside the "sites" subfolder: 'file_directory_path' => 'sites/www.example.com/files' this looks cleaner to me, since it would make per-site independent backups and, maybe, future migration of each site to a separate server easier. What do you think? Is it possible to set it as I propose? Is it a good idea? TIA, D. say, future

Also: must it be in the drupal installation root or in (for virtual hosting) drupalroot/sites/virtualdomain_1/files ?? D.
