Views Import Not showing / Missing php imput filter [#2731543]

I noticed 2 things after installing commons and using it for a while
1. The views import link does not show no mater what i changed Apparently i got to know that it can be related to the php imput filter not being turned on

2.And upon looking into the core module of drupal commons the php input filter is not also there

I will like to know if this was deliberate and what fix is there to bring back the views import link

Thanks

First you need to disable paranoia module.
This cant be done on the UI, as it does not show up.

Use drush dis paranoia and after that you can enable the php-filter. After paranoia is disabled the module will show up in the UI.

I dont have any module called Paranoia in my list of modules. So i guess that is not why views import is not showing

Believe me ... you have!

This module does not show up in your list of modules.
After beeinmg enabled you can only disable it using drush or direct in system table of database.

Thanks

This sounds really strange. I am considering Drupal Commons for a long term project, is this a good idea? Looking at how it deviates far from the normal workflow of drupal and too many unnecessary customization.

Please advice.

Hi,

if you can run your long term project with Drupal 7 - it's a good choice. I'm working with Commons since 5 1/2 year for building communities - so I love it, with all the pro's and con's.

If you want to use Drupal 8, keep an eye on this one: https://www.drupal.org/project/social
