I'm not sure.  I always thought it was part of the OG core.  It might be
part of the path module that provides a freindly url though.  Out of the
OG modules, I have OG, OG Access Control, OG Actions, OG Views,
Subgroups for OG enabled.

I just tried that, and it didn't fix the issue.  Thank you for the idea.

Under User Permissions, I can give anonymous users and authenticated
users 'administer organic groups' permissions, but I think it should
be automatic for site admins - there is no column for site admins.  Of
course I don't want to give all authenticated users this right, or
anonymous users.  As an extra step, I added a new role, and gave it
'administer organic groups' permissions, then gave my user that role,
and I still have the same issue.  Am I looking in the wrong place?

I have had this problem posted there for a long time with no response.

I could not find anyone else with this issue, which is why I posted it
as a new one, and why I posted it as a support request instead of a
bug because nobody else has duplicated it.  I didn't email any module
maintainers until the issue sat in their queue for a few months.  Then
I emailed Moshe, I think, and now it's been a few more months with
still no response.

Thank you for your help

I'm a newbie but yet an accomplished PHP developer. However, I need a Drupal
6 View walkthrough because I "don't get it". Let's say I have a list of
staff members with the fields:

- name
- title
- photo
- bio
- email

When viewed in a sidebar block on an About Us page, I only want the list to
show name, title, and photo. But when clicked, I want it to go to a node and
show all the fields.

I hear I can do this with 2 Drupal Views, but I'm confused as to how to
implement this.

Hi Vinq1,
Welcome to Drupal.

The O'Reilly book "Using Drupal" will get you through it one step at a time.
I highly recommend it (I have financial interest in that book :)

Note, in addition to Views, you also need to install the CCK module as well
as imagefield, and if you want more flexibility displaying the pics, the
imagecache module is brilliant.

Good luck,

Shai

Thanks. Yeah, I installed the following modules today:

- CCK
- filefield
- imagefield
- emfield
- link
- email

I then created a custom content type for Staff Member with those fields.

But now I'm trying to grasp how to make two views, and then how to throw one
view onto a page node (just one staff member), and another into a sidebar
block as a short list of staff members.

Once that's done, I need to know how to add pages to the Zen theme (which I
have customized in a subfolder of the Zen theme) to style just those staff
member entries.

Rahul,

I've done something similar quite a few times using Drupal.  The guts of my
code are:

> function scoreboard_menu() {

 $items = array();


> $items['scoreboard'] = array(

'title' => t('My Scoreboard'),

'description' => t('Scoreboard'),

'page callback' => 'scoreboard_main_page',

'access arguments' => array('access content'),

'type' => MENU_CALLBACK,

);


> return $items;

}



function scoreboard_main_page() {
>   $output = '';
> $table = array();
> $header = array(
> );
> $date = date('Y-m-d');
>
> db_set_active('customdb');
> $results = db_query('SELECT * FROM WHERE filter LIKE "%s%%" GROUP BY
> groupfield ORDER BY orderfield DESC', $date);
> db_set_active();




> while ($line = db_fetch_object($results)) {

Just make sure you have your database settings in your settings.php.  Seems
to work for me for simple tasks
