Used to have multi sites but went to separate installations so that if/when one Drupal install gets hacked, and they've tried very hard on one of them, it never affects other sites. Speed and memory wise, I can't comment but find that because each is accessed very differently by end users there never seems to be bottlenecks.

Connecting to a non-system-wide drupal database
by Tim Johnson 09 Nov '12

09 Nov '12

I'm a total drupal noob, but a long-time CGI/Web/database programmer. When I installed drupal, the first things I wanted to do was to understand drupal in terms of the file structure and also to access the drupal MySQL database independent of drupal itself - I.E. - from either bash via mysql client or via an API. I use python.MySQLdb in this example. The installation of drupal by acquia and the bitnami stack on Mac OSX puts the data storage at a different location than the default mysql installation. So to use the MySQL client one has to use the -S option to pass the drupal socket file and the -P option to pass the port number. mysql -hlocalhost -uroot -p****** -P3307 -S/Applications/drupal-7.15-0/mysql/tmp/mysql.sock ## NOTE: /Applications/drupal-7.15-0/mysql/tmp/mysql.sock is the socket file and the drupal instance of the mysql client listens at port 3307. Two different API connections (using the mysql shared object approach) and the python MySQLdb API first, load the MySQLdb API source import MySQLdb ## 1)Using root as user conn = MySQLdb.connect(db='bitnami_drupal7',host='localhost',user='root', passwd='rootpassword',read_default_file="/Applications/drupal-7.15-0/mysql/my.cnf") ## 2)Using the bitnami user created in the installation and from the ## $databases array in sites/default/settings.php conn=MySQLdb.connect(db='bitnami_drupal7',host = 'localhost', user='bitnami',passwd='bitnamipassword', read_default_file="/Applications/drupal-7.15-0/mysql/my.cnf") Note that in both cases we pass the 'read_default_file' keyword with the value of the drupal mysql option file : /Applications/drupal-7.15-0/mysql/my.cnf But the `passwd' value will be different for the different users. :) And use user 'root' at yer own peril. Getting this together was some work for me and perhaps this as archived might save someone else some time. Any comments or corrections by the wise heads on this list are invited. cheers -- Tim tim at tee jay forty nine dot com or akwebsoft dot com http://www.akwebsoft.com

Hi to all. Please, take a look at http://www.europeanfootballschool.com/ On the right side on the home page, there are Testimonials. How can I remove "Submitted by / on..." part? Actually, I would like to remove the linked title too. I would like to have just a testimonial and the name as a part of the testimonial. View setting you can see on http://www.europeanfootballschool.com/sites/default/files/images/testimonia… Thanks, Afan

Theme migration and regions
by Shérab 09 Nov '12

09 Nov '12

Hi, I'm currently migrating a Drupal website from Chameleon to a Zen sub-theme. Under Chameleon there are two regions called left and right. Under Zen there are two called sidebar_first and sidebar_second. I'd like that all the blocks that go in left (resp. right) under Chameleon go in sidebar_first (resp. sidebar_second) under Zen. I'm wondering how to achieve this. I thought about renaming Zen's regions so that they match Chameleon's names but I don't dare to do it. Perhaps I can jsut modify the database directly even if it's not so beautiful ? Ideally I'd like the modification to be in the form of a sort of script because during the migration I'll probably want to reinject several times the prod database (using Chameleon) into the dev one (using Zen). And I'd like to having to avoid re-assigning regions to blocks each time. Many thanks for any advice ! Best wishes, Sherab.

Hi, Does anyone has experience with Drupal multi-site on shared hosting. How it is in terms of RAM consumption.Is it better than several standalone Drupal installations, or just opposite. Will it improve performance, I have reached RAM limit recently, got rid off some useless installs ,got better but still poorly. I am not talking about heavy traffic websites. Tom -- Joomla!

by Thomas Bétrancourt 09 Nov '12

Hi! I'm writting an installation profile for my website. I would like to enable 4 languages (en, fr, es and de). I've added .po files in translations directory of my profile, now, i would like enable french by default (hide the "Language selection" step in installation) and enable spanish and german. In a second time, i would like to enable browser selection / URI prefix selection for i18n in the installation process. Anyone has some tips about this subjet ?

Where are services resources files to be saved at?
by Tim Johnson 09 Nov '12

09 Nov '12

Hi : I'm completely new to drupal, but have been doing CGI and web development for 17 years, the last 12 on *nix workstations and servers. Using drupal 7.16 on OS X 10.7 I am viewing a tutorial on creating services at http://drupal.org/node/783460 It is very thorough, but strangely, the tutorial makes no reference to where the services resoure files are to be saved/stored at. Can anyone please tell me where to save those files? thanks -- Tim tim at tee jay forty nine dot com or akwebsoft dot com http://www.akwebsoft.com

hosting of Drupal 7 sites
by Pia Oliver 08 Nov '12

08 Nov '12

We are hosted on GoDaddy, the "web grid" -whatever that means. The sites seem slow to me and I wonder what experience others have with other hosting companies? How much support to expect and speed. thanks, Pia -- <http://www.Piasworld.com> "That's a great deal to make one word mean," Alice said in a thoughtful tone.

Hi, I keep my sites on dreamhost, running slowly. I think there is RAM issue, but amount of RAM per hosting account is top secret. I have few static sites, 4 Drupals and 5 Joomlas, all very small traffic. Last year they were fine, this year after few hardware problems, I was off line for 2-3 days ( all together) they moved to new hardware...and I am considering moving elsewhere. I use their shared hosting ( not recommended for drupal ), website is www.tkstudiodesign.com if you want to have a look how it works Tom On Thu, Nov 8, 2012 at 6:40 PM, Pia Oliver <pia(a)piasworld.com> wrote: > We are hosted on GoDaddy, the "web grid" -whatever that means.
