i tried posting on the forum but nobody has replied yet. so i am
repeating my question here.
how do i set up my drupal site to not require an email address? my
users are not very computer savvy and i don't want to have to require
them to have an email address. not on the registration page and not in
their account page either. please help.
i tried the logintobogan module but that does not seem to have such
an option.
How PHP savvy are you?

I know I was being vague. I was trying to ask the question in general
terms so that I would know how to handle all bugs, rather than the
specific one I'm dealing with now. Though I'd love to have help on the
specific bug I'm dealing with, I know that only a few people might have
knowledge about the module that has the bug. However, many people deal
with debugging scripts everyday, and that's why I was looking for some
strategies to best track down and fix bugs.
Well, you were too vague for me to even conclude this.  You stated that
you were "not a coder" and coders are the ones that "track down and fix
bugs".
...
But to be specific about the particular bug I'm dealing with, it's in
Yahoo Terms module.
I posted a bug report on it at http://drupal.org/node/166932. As I first
described the problem, Yahoo Terms were being applied to other content,
like a forum post, though the Yahoo Terms module was not associated with
that content. That was fixed with the patch supplied by douggreen at
http://drupal.org/node/171620.
You used the patch; you should have provided feedback to 171620.  Doug
Green cannot do any more than he has done until feedback is given.  If
feedback had been given perhaps the patch could have moved forward and
been applied.
...
Since then I have upgraded the site to Drupal 5.2 and all of the
modules. Now I'm seeing the same error on all feed nodes. The error
happens only when the terms are applied when the node is created. It
does not happen if the terms are re-applied to an existing node.
What were you using before 5.2?  I don't see a released module for
yahoo_terms; there are only development snapshots.  A development
snapshot is updated with every CVS update which may or may not work as
expected.  Development snapshots are for coders to apply the test then
recode cycle with.
...
It appears that an array is not presented where the function
array_merge() expects to see one in the argument.
Maybe Doug Green will jump at the chance to refresh the patch, maybe
not.  Maybe someone else will.  I'm not interested at the moment
because it isn't something I'm using or plan to use.

If you could share the code, I'd greatly appreciate it. I know nothing about
how to code for jQuery.
Thank you!

Have a block where every few seconds, a new story appears. But, having
little blocks you can click on as well to move around those stories.

I did find this site: http://www.renmenbi.com/
The East Meets West box is exactly what I want. It's absolutely perfect. I
did a search on drupal.org, and I believe they are using the ViewsCarousel
module. But, it has absolutely no documentation, and I can't figure out how
to get it to work.

The ViewsCarousel module doesn't have any releases from what I can see.
But there's a pointer to the JCarousel plugin at
http://drupal.org/project/jcarousel which has a bit of documentation on
how to use it in the readme text as well as a link to get more options.
