Term/Definition Table Module . . .
by Jason Flatt 24 Apr '06

24 Apr '06

I've been searching the module list, but I'm not seeing it. Maybe it doesn't exist, but I thought there was a module to help with the creation of a term/definition table that also did cross-referencing of terms. Like what is done in this table: http://www.alphadictionary.com/articles/southernese.html Am I dreaming, or does such a module exist? -- Jason Flatt http://www.oadae.net/ Father of Six: http://www.flattfamily.com/ (Joseph, 13; Cramer, 11; Travis, 9; Angela; Harry, 5; and William, 12:04 am, 12-29-2005) Linux User: http://www.sourcemage.org/ Drupal Fanatic: http://drupal.org/

Gary, I think you read the Help Vampire article too? *chuckle*. This person's not a help vampire though, by the definition in the article :-) Kobus >>> listout(a)accidentaltechie.org 4/20/2006 4:31:00 PM >>> "Morbus Iff" wrote: >> I took my lead from this guy -- > > We are both fighting the same war: you're rude to newbs, I'm rude to newbs who > don't think they're newbs. Idea: Let's not. Or at least not each other. :) Seriously, no harm intended to the OP (front page person), and even more especially not to you. Really. I am a magnanimous, friendly, often-caustic-without-meaning-to-be and wide-open guy who likes to laugh (at myself, often and especially.) No harm (intended), no foul (I hope.)

Is it possible to create an "Add new content in this category" feature?
by Michael Angeles 24 Apr '06

24 Apr '06

Question regarding a functionality I've been wanting, but not sure if it's possible. When a user is viewing a taxonomy page for a single term (taxonomy/term/1) it would be nice to have a link that would allow the user to "Add new content in this category". The idea would be that: 1) user is viewing a category/taxonomy page 2) user clicks "Add new content to this category" link 3) the create page (or any node type, although this is probably an important issue) form appears and the category is automatically selected in approporiate taxonomy selection menu or drop down The interaction is sort of similar to what we have in the forums when we click the "Post new forum topic" link, but it would apply to other node types, e.g. pages or blogs. This is a very minor feature that go a long way towards making a better user experience in some instances. I know this might be problematic to implement because of the number situations that might exist, e.g. the issue of Drupal determining what content type create node form the link displays if the taxonomy term applies to multiple node types. Anyone doing this now? Thanks, Michael P.S. This question was also posted on http://drupal.org/node/59865

Re: [support] Database problem

Recently, I tried changing the username for my account. That had my site (my drupal site) unreachable, with an "unable to select database," error. Well, I realized that the problem was that my cpanel interface adds a prefix to the database, as in myoldaccountid_drpl1 > when changed to mynewaccountid_drpl1 will not work. Amazingly, even when I changed the config file, which is settings.php in the sites/default directory. I'm perplexed as to why that didn't work. I looked all through my site and could not find any other place where the actual name of the database was hard-coded. Question: Is there some other place where the actual database name will be found in the code? No. Which user name for which account, this is unclear. Pat

22 Apr '06

Hi, A general question on multi site hosting plan. I am planning to have a multi site drupal configuration for 4 websites. But when i choose hosting plans, should I go for single site hosting plans or multi-site hosting plans? If I take a single site hosting plan, do they allow drupal multi site configuration? regards, Paul

Some issues and their fixes with Drupal 4.6.6 and PostgreSQL
by Nimish Pachapurkar 20 Apr '06

20 Apr '06

Hello All, We ran into few issues when running Drupal 4.6.6 with PostgreSQL. The issue, in general, seems to be with some queries in some of the modules that attempted to insert a blank string ('') into an integer field. The modules affected are: user.module and node.module from Drupal Core, and flexinode module. I found that this issue has been discussed already at http://drupal.org/node/27870. I have a patch that fixes this issue reasonably. Please let me know how I should go about contributing it. Perhaps I could post the patch somewhere - either on this list or on one of the forums on drupal.org - and then one of the contributors can propagate it to the source code. Also, what is best place to post a patch for the fix in flexinode module? Thanks, Nimish

Hi, In the modules download, find the frontpage.module for your particular Drupal version. This will be able to do what you want. Regards, Kobus >>> lister(a)pikkle.com 4/20/2006 9:39 AM >>> hi all!

blog it anywhere
by spunc77 20 Apr '06

20 Apr '06

I have been tasked with build a site for a small t-shirt enterprise and I opted to use drupal, having had a good experience in the past. my host is running MySQL 4.2.2 and an slightly older version of php so that rules out drupl 4.6 ( I tried ). My most pressing issue is that I can't blog news items except from the sources feed block. It's use to be previous versions that I could blog any item from what use to be called the import page. Well the import (news) page has since disappeared and I don't want to enable a block for all my news feeds. Issue 2 I have been adding feeds containing images to to add some life to the site but the images never show up on the news page. Now what is that about? Is there a way to have images in the news item show up not as a text link but as it is intended as part of the news artile or feed ? So just so I state my questions clear . how can I blog items (of node type) from anywhere with the site (i.e) blog it botton for all contents types or at the very least news itmes , and two how do I get images to show as images on the news page ? I've tryed every thing from messing with imput fillters and the images modules but not luck . URGENT help needed All that said I look forward to test driving 4.7 and future releases. http://www.faroutteeshirts.com/drupal-4.5.8/?q=
