[drupal-support] Themes causing database corruption?
by NSK 06 Feb '05

06 Feb '05

I am using Drupal 4.5.2 with the default Bluemarine theme. The database is MySQL 3.23. The site is this: http://portal.wikinerds.org I tried many of the themes that can be found at drupal.org, including Sunflower, Goofy, Kubrick, Interlaced and many more. After I tested many themes I decided to return to my default Bluemarine theme. When I loaded the Bluemarine again, everything was messed up: - The sidebar was on the left instead of on the right. - My site logo and name was not showing up - My site footer was hidden - My primary links and secondary links weren't showing up - The article titles were not clickable as before - When I checked some articles, I was seeing some random characters instead of the article text. It is not a caching issue on my browser because I tested it with many different computers. What I did then was to download the original Drupal 4.5.2 again and set-up the site from the beginning using the same database. So, I replaced all code, without of course copying the non-default themes. I had again a default Drupal installation using the same database. The display was still incorrect, which makes me to believe that somehow the database got corrupt. Note: I use the Feedback and Excerpt modules. One of the themes I tried was Goofy, and another user has posted this bug report: http://drupal.org/node/15400 However I don't know whether it was Goofy which caused the problem, because I tested many other themes too. I have a database backup from Feb-1, but it doesn't contain the newest content such as the GNU/Hurd article. I also tried the other default themes of Drupal and they don't work, either. Any help is appreciated. I would never imagine that testing some themes would cause these terrible problems! I can login to my site and change settings, but the display is all messed up. It isn't what my site readers would want to see. -- NSK http://portal.wikinerds.org

[drupal-support] Changing the default English Translation (locale)
by Ross Kendall 29 Jan '05

29 Jan '05

Not actually working on multi-lingual sites (at this point), however... What I want is my 'en' 'translation' to be different from the default. I have on one site used the localization settings to add a new 'language' (which I called en-GB), however the sole purpose was to just change the default behavior. I didn't want to provide multiple 'translations'. It does work of course, just me being a fussy perfectionist. How are other people achieving the same thing? Cheers, Ross.

[drupal-support] the "remember me" option
by Abalieno 27 Jan '05

27 Jan '05

It seems gone in the last versions. I'd like to be able to set the site so that the session expires as the browser closes for the users choosing so and log them in automatically without an expiration date for those choosing so as well. This is possible or not in the current version? Why such important and intuitive feature has been removed? -HRose / Abalieno

[drupal-support] Listhandler.module + Mailman + Postfix question
by Steve Dondley 27 Jan '05

27 Jan '05

I've successfully installed mailman, mailhander.module, and the listhandler.module on my Debian Woody box running Postfix. Everything works, except that mailman intercepts all the incoming mail to the list and so the mail never gets to the mbox file. Therefore, the mailhandler.module never gets a chance to post the incoming mail to the forum. How do I configure mailhandler and/or postfix to send the e-mail to the mailbox I have listed in the mailhandler settings page? Thanks.

[drupal-support] .htaccess and drupal
by probsd org 26 Jan '05

26 Jan '05

Hey Group, I'm using apache 2.0.52, PHP 4.3.10_2,1 ( freebsd ), and drupal 4.5.1 drupal is installed to a virtual host directory ( /usr/local/ncgun ) and configured as such in httpd.conf In httpd.conf I have the directory set up as such: <Directory "/usr/local/ncgun2/"> Options All AllowOverride Options Order allow,deny Allow from all </Directory> With NO .htaccess file, everything works, but looking at the file, I see thats a security issue. If I comment OUT the following in .htaccess, the install will work: <Files ~ "(\.(conf|inc|module|pl|sh|sql|theme|engine|xtmpl)|Entries|Repositories|Root|scripts|updat es)$"> order deny,allow deny from all </Files> Options -Indexes Options +FollowSymLinks ErrorDocument 404 /index.php DirectoryIndex index.php <IfModule mod_rewrite.c> RewriteEngine on RewriteBase /usr/local/ncgun2 </IfModule> Thus, a working .htaccess file for me looks as such: <IfModule sapi_apache2.c> php_value register_globals 0 php_value track_vars 1 php_value short_open_tag 1 php_value magic_quotes_gpc 0 php_value magic_quotes_runtime 0 php_value magic_quotes_sybase 0 php_value arg_separator.output "&" php_value session.cache_expire 200000 php_value session.gc_maxlifetime 200000 php_value session.cookie_lifetime 2000000 php_value session.auto_start 0 php_value session.save_handler user php_value session.cache_limiter none php_value allow_call_time_pass_reference On </IfModule> Any idea what I have configured incorrectly that is preventing me from using the other variables in .htaccess?

[drupal-support] Missing argument 1 for comment_reply(), comment.module line 382.
by Wilbert Berendsen 25 Jan '05

25 Jan '05

Hi, I see this error sometimes in the logs. Anonymous users generate this error when going to /comment/reply (without a node number). Is this a problem (e.g. normal users somewhere following a erroneous link) or is this malicious scripts trying to 'hack' drupal? Googling for this error message gave me some drupal sites that all expose this problem :-) tnx, Wilbert -- Wilbert Berendsen (www.xs4all.nl/~wbsoft, www.kde.nl, www.kerklied.net) * Take back the web: www.mozilla-europe.org/nl/ * Free as in speech and beer: http://opencd.dischosting.nl/

[drupal-support] include external pages ... iframe
by Todd Howard 23 Jan '05

23 Jan '05

I would like to include external pages on my site. As a reference, Mambo CMS offers this feature, I believe they call it wrappers, I think it uses iframe. Specifically what I'm trying to do ... this is a youth soccer site, an outside source will provide team schedules and results, I would like to integrate those external pages. Any ideas on the correct way to do this with Drupal. Thanks for the help !!! Todd

[drupal-support] View child categories on category's main page?
by Wilbert Berendsen 22 Jan '05

22 Jan '05

Hi all, I am a new user of Drupal and set it up on our church site: www.lambertikerk.nl (Zelhem, The Netherlands). I really like it, but I've got one question so far: - Is it possible to view child categories on the page of a category? E.g. when I have a taxonomy like: Foo (4) ----foobar (2) ----fooquux (2) and there are no postings in Foo itself, but in foobar and fooquux, the page "Foo" just says "There are no items in this category.". I like it to say "There are on items in this category but we have 2 subcategories: foobar and fooquux," and display a short summary of both. Also when there are postings inside "Foo", it would be nice if there was a way to have some block saying "See also" and show the child categories. thanks, Wilbert -- Wilbert Berendsen (www.xs4all.nl/~wbsoft, www.kde.nl, www.kerklied.net) * Take back the web: www.mozilla-europe.org/nl/ * Free as in speech and beer: http://opencd.dischosting.nl/

[drupal-support] tracker.module kaput
by Abalieno 21 Jan '05

21 Jan '05

The tracker module died on my installation. This after I upgraded from 4.5.0 to 4.5.2 I ran the upgrade script and this corrected the count of the comments in the nodes properly. But when I started to add more nodes after the upgrade I noticed that the tracker simply doesn't update. It's stuck. To correct this I had to copy the tracker.module file I have in my previous installation. Now it is updating properly but I'm basically using a 4.5.2 installation with the tracker.module of the 4.5.0 So the fun is that with the new tracker.module of the 4.5.2 the comments count finally updates properly but only it. If I create a node and this node doesn't receive comments, it doesn't appear in the tracker, as if it was never posted. It does appear only in the case someone writes a comment to it. While the 4.5.0 version doesn't update the comment count but at least shows in the tracker when a new node is created... -HRose / Abalieno
