in my drupal 6 site, browse to http://www.mysite.com/admin/settings/performance, but the block cache is default disabled and greyed out, can't be enabled. see blow. anyone can help?

Block cache Enabling the block cache can offer a performance increase for all users by preventing blocks from being reconstructed on each page load. If the page cache is also enabled, performance increases from enabling the block cache will mainly benefit authenticated users. Block cache: Disabled Enabled (recommended) Note that block caching is inactive when modules defining content access restrictions are enabled.

I have a problem I can't solve:

When I go to my client's website at bartosandrini.com the *Home* tab is not highlighted, in fact a completely different tab, *Criminal/Traffic*, is highlighted. This problem showed up after one of my client's blog editors selected Promoted to front page in the *Publishing options* section.

[image: original.png]

These are my settings across the site

In *Site Configuration* *>* *Site Information*(or /admin/settings/site-information)

Default front page: *http://bartosandrini.com/ The home page displays content from this relative URL. If unsure, specify "node".

In the footer section on the same page and I am using <a href="/"><u>Home</u></a>

In *Site Building* *>* *Menus* *>* *Primary Links* (or /admin/build/menu/item/1964/edit)

Menu settings Path: * The path this menu item links to. This can be an internal Drupal path such as *node/add* or an external URL such as *http://drupal.org*. Enter * <front>* to link to the front page. Menu link title: * The link text corresponding to this item that should appear in the menu.

In *Site Building* *>* *Blocks* after selecting configure for the rotor in the content top block (or /admin/build/block/configure/views/rotor-block_1)

Page specific visibility settingshttp://bartosandrini.com/admin/build/block/configure/views/rotor-block_1# Show block on specific pages: Show on every page except the listed pages. Show on only the listed pages. Show if the following PHP code returns TRUE (PHP-mode, experts only). Pages: Enter one page per line as Drupal paths. The '*' character is a wildcard. Example paths are *blog* for the blog page and *blog/** for every personal blog. *<front>* is the front page. If the PHP-mode is chosen, enter PHP code between *<?php ?>*. Note that executing incorrect PHP-code can break your Drupal site.

This problem first occurred in January and below is a copy of the advice I received. Initially, this worked for me. This advice does not work and I really don't know what to do or how to troubleshoot this.

The URL path settings should be front and not home.

Check admin/build/path/list that the alias exists, if not create it

alias exists in one part of the listhttp://drupal.org/node/678758#comment-2453242 Posted by fndtn357 http://drupal.org/user/255723 on *January 8, 2010 at 9:02pm*

in a filtered list *nodes*, I see node/33 = node/33 and if I try to change that it says that home is already being used. Without a filter, home = node/33. Is this something I should change in the database so that forward or reverse it says home = node/33 and node/33 = home? Or should I delete the extra node/33 listing?

*home* is an Alias and *node/33* is in System.

delete that and start again, on the site info page make front page: node

Then make you menu path <front> call it anything you want ie Home

wow! Thanks a lot. http://drupal.org/node/678758#comment-2453380 Posted by fndtn357 http://drupal.org/user/255723 on *January 8, 2010 at 9:44pm*

That worked. Should I leave everything as is now? And moreover how did I get it so confused? Did I not read correctly somewhere down the line? I reset this (I don't remember how now) a few times and every time I ran a major update it changed itself. Do you think this might happen again?
