hi Jad - >i'm trying to add some more links on each blog page >so under these links >Jad's blog | add new comment | 29 reads >( categories: Daily | Jordan | Life ) > >I want to add - Google for similar topics - Wikipedia Search > >but I couldn't figure out which file I have to edit to add those custom links >I have tried blog.module, page.module, node.module but nothing there >also I have checked the theme files, so please someone direct me I think the place you want to look is in the modules/blog.module file. The blog_link() function is what adds links to the bottom of blog entries (only). Here's a code snippet from Drupal 4.6.2's blog.module: - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - function blog_link($type, $node = 0, $main = 0) { $links = array(); if ($type == 'node' && $node->type == 'blog') { if (arg(0) != 'blog' && arg(1) != $node->uid) { $links[] = l(t("%username's blog", array('%username' => $node->name)), "blog/$node->uid", array('title' => t("Read %username's latest blog entries.", array('%username' => $node->name)))); $links[] = '<a href="http://www.google.com">Google me!</a>'; } } return $links; } - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - The links[] array hold all the links that will be displayed at the bottom of the blog. I added the second "$links[] = ..." statment above (with the google link) to show an example of how you might add links of your choice. Cheers, --Katin

[drupal-support] Tell-a-Friend vs Email-This-Page
by Gunther Herzog 12 Aug '05

12 Aug '05

Hello drupal-support, There seem to be two modules in CVS that are at cross-purposes, and I'm wondering if anyone has a preference of one over the other? 1) Which is more likely to be integrated with future modules. For instance, I'd like to use a feature like this in conjunction with the "invite" module. 2) There seems to be a glaring omission here... should there not be a maintained "do not email" list? These outbound emails should at least have a link that the recipient can follow so that any future notices are blocked. I would not want my domain name being added to spam filters. 3) As a simpler alternative, what if the tell-a-friend link on a page is a simple "mailto:" url with subject and message body filled in. That way each individual surfer is using their own ISP's SMTP server, the "FROM:" will be from the recipient's friend, and they have the option of modifying/personalizing the email before it goes out. The only caveat I can think of is.. besides Microsoft Outlook, how many email clients support the following type of link... mailto:somebody@fakeisp.nowhere?subject=This%20And%20That&Body=A%20Sample%20Message 4) What if this were made into some kind of incentive/contest? In addition to support for #2 above, have a way to record who sent a visitor to the site, by adding a tracking method to the URL (similar to affiliates). Then have an "effectiveness" contest... a score based on a ratio of how many invites / how many responses. -- Best regards, Gunther mailto:storysmith@softhome.net

[drupal-support] favicon.ico problem revisited
by Gunther Herzog 12 Aug '05

12 Aug '05

Hello drupal-support, Sorry if this is a repeat of something covered on-site, but I was unable to find a solution to the problem there with a search for "favicon"... The problem: I installed Drupal as my site root, using the default .htaccess and "friendly" paths (no ? query). Unfortunately, my favicon.ico file became inaccessible. Since a direct access to the the favicon.ico file resulted in "access denied", my thinking is that this may be the first thing that needs to be tackled. After all, if I cannot access the file directly, how will the browser be able to pull it in, even if it knows about it's existence? My first step: modify .htaccess as follows... # ====[start of sample code]==== RewriteEngine on # bypass rewrites on icon request RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} "favicon.ico" RewriteRule (.*) $1 [L] # ====[end of sample code]==== That patch seems to work. Partially. At least now I can access the icon directly, as in... http://InsertSiteNameHere/favicon.ico Unfortunately, the browsers I'm testing with STILL won't show the icon consistently. I've restarted, cleared caches, and set to check for page updates with each request. With the following results: Microsoft Internet Explorer: NO ICON Mozilla 1.7.x: NO ICON FireFox 1.0: HURRAH! MY ICON SHOWS! Mind you, the above browsers ALL show icons for other sites, just not mine :( I did some research and found that there is an additional directive that can be added to HTML to at least suggest to a browser that there is a favicon to be had...  <HEAD> <LINK REL="SHORTCUT ICON" HREF="/~your_directory/logo.ico"> </HEAD>  Since this needs to go in the HTML header, I'm wondering where it should go... is there source for header generation in Drupal core? Or should that mod go in a theme? Reference sources: http://chami.com/tips/internet/110599I.html http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.0/mod/mod_rewrite.html -- Best regards, Gunther mailto:storysmith@softhome.net

Have you looked at Organic Groups ? http://drupal.org/project/og I think this project is one that should best fit a Yahoo Groups like. However, you may need to devellop some missing features, so feel free to get in touch with them. I don't know the project so much as I don't currently use it, but feel free to ask more support there.

Good Morning Stan, Yahoo Groups functions are very good. And my wish is developing the same functionality by Drupal. I saw that Civic Space offers PHPList inside his applications, but I do no know if PHPList is also a discussion list software. Anyway I think that you must develop it by yourself. There is a Drupal module called "Ezmlm". Ezmlm is a very flexible OS discussion and newsletter software based on Qmail. What I know is that you use for all mailing list software specific server administration rights. Ezmlm seems to be more flexible and stronger than Mailman. Some month before I found out that Listsoft offers a free version of their mailing list software which is not open source but from a company with many experiences in this field. But I think that each mailing list software is not an easy approach for installation. With all the link applications, forums and download features of Drupal it seems to be very easy to develop semilar applications like Yahoo Groups (it might be possible that you can do it much more better).

In fact, anything with mailman integration is bound to be better than a product that tries to do all of that lifting by itself. I can't speak for phpbb, but I am happy with my mailman installation.
