Duplicate Title Tags & Descriptions due to pagination
by Jessica Hannan - Halo Digital Design 05 Oct '12

05 Oct '12

We very suddenly and drastically saw our duplicate title and description tags jump in Webmaster tools. They went from 200 to 3,000 overnight! When I click on the pages it claims to be duplicated, I see "URL?page=" for all of them. I found this post http://drupal.org/node/758230#comment-6560568 on Drupal.org, but I want to make sure I am following best practices to fix this problem. Any input is appreciated!! Thanks!

Drupal 7 form file element issue
by Austin Einter 05 Oct '12

05 Oct '12

Hi Experts I have a simple D7 form and have a file element as below. $form['q_name']['q_file1'] = array( '#type' => 'file', '#title' => "Upload document", '#size' => 60, ); Its a 2-step form. User fills data in page1, previews it (page 2) and submits. If I do submit from page 1, it works fine. If I do submit from page 2, looks $_FILES array values are not there. 'name' , 'tmp_name', 'error' indexes are missing from $_FILES array. I am sure others might have faced this issue earlier. Can somebody kindly give me a pointer how to fix this issue or whats the work around here. Thanks Austin

Cron and clearing caches to update field data..
by Wipe_Out 03 Oct '12

03 Oct '12

Hi, Can someone explain what running the drupal cron job does and at what intervals?? Here is the situation.. We are updating a particular field directly in the database from another source.. This is working fine but the issue is that the updated information doesn't show on the site straight away.. I have cron running every hour and have the cache lifetimes on the performance page set to 10 min but even after waiting an hour and a cron run the page still isn't always updated with the new value of the field.. Sometimes it is and sometimes it isn't.. The only way I have found to "force" an update is to clear all the caches but this seems like a massive overkill.. If I can find out when it will update on its own I can set the user expectations so they know they have to wait that long for the data to be updated.. Thanks for any information..

add multiple articles at once in D7?
by Dave Stevens 03 Oct '12

03 Oct '12

I have a site I'm putting up where the client has about 500 articles that need posting. They are all short ascii text files with a simple pattern. It would save an awful lot of work if I could add them faster than cut and paste one at a time. I've been looking at the feeds module but can't tell if it would do this. Anyone have ideas or experience with a situation like this? Dave -- If all the advertising in the world were to shut down tomorrow, would people still go on buying more soap, eating more apples, giving their children more vitamins, roughage, milk, olive oil, scooters and laxatives, learning more languages by iPod, hearing more virtuosos by radio, re-decorating their houses, refreshing themselves with more non-alcoholic thirst-quenchers, cooking more new, appetizing dishes, affording themselves that little extra touch which means so much? Or would the whole desperate whirligig slow down, and the exhausted public relapse upon plain grub and elbow-grease? --- Dorothy L Sayers, in Murder Must Advertise

Domain Access alternatives..
by Wipe_Out 02 Oct '12

02 Oct '12

Hi, I have a single web application that we have built on Drupal that makes extensive use of the content_access module for managing access to the various bits of information stored on the site for different roles and individual users.. The company has two "identities" that have different branding and currently run two sites.. The objective is to have a single "site" for both domains.. On a simple site the Domain Access module is perfect for this but its design and the design of Drupal's node access system means it doesn't play well with content_access.. So I am looking for an alternative setup.. So far I have found ThemeKey that looks like it will switch the theme nicely for the domain being accessed.. Things I am having a hard time working out.. 1) For each "domain" I need a different "home" page.. Any suggestions how to have <front> show a different page depending on the domain? 2) The meta tags need to be different depending on the domain being accessed.. 3) Separate "contact us" form for each domain.. I have just started looking at the "context" module and the "context_condition_theme" module but these don't seem to be solving the problems for me.. I was going to use context to manage block placement for each "site" but it doesn't seem like its able to do this for this type of arrangement where more than one theme is being used.. The core blocks module for all its short comings seems to be able to do this more easily.. My other alternative would be to keep the separate site for "marketing" and somehow redirect the login block (or just create a login link) that redirects into the primary site and then just tweak the branding to make the user feel comfortable even though slogans, meta tags, titles and urls won't be right for that "domain".. Thanks..

Alter node (title) field?
by toon severijns 02 Oct '12

02 Oct '12

Hello All, This must be a simple thing to do but i can't seem to get my head around it: - I have got a content type 'publication' - A publication can have two possible physical formats: "normal", "electronic" - When a publication has physical format "electronic" i'd like to alter my title field in al my view modes (i use display suite) like this "Some Title (electronic)" I've been trying theme_preprocess_node function but to no avail. I've also tried hook_node_view, but there i have my title field already as markup in an array so i can't just alter the title itsself. I'm very much stuck on a simple thing here i guess. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks beforehand! Best, Toon
