Hi there. Running Copyright 5.x-1.0 on Drupal 5. Copyright is installed and configured. Copyright block is displaying as expected in the footer.

So... ...where do you assign a license to a node? No new widgets or fieldsets have appeared in my node submission forms for any content type. I just assumed this is where license assignment took place. Am I wrong?

Attached is an image of my node submission form.

Help?

You need to do enable the copyright selection for each content type you want users to be able to assign copyrights (Administer >> Content Managment >> Content types). By default, the copyright selection is disabled for each type.

Have you done that for the "Journal entry" content type?

Title: You assign copyright to nodes where, again? » Luser

Yep, that would've been the most obvious place to look.

Thanks. ^^;;

Incidentally, I'm working on my first-ever Drupal patch, and it's for your module. I'm trying to hack it so each user can select their own default license.

I'll leave it to you to figure out how scared you should be that the guy who couldn't figure out how to enable your module is trying to modify your module. I promise that the patch, if it comes, will be supported by many disclaimers of competence. <.<;;

Title: Luser » Luser can't enable module properly
Status: Active » Closed (fixed)

Changing title to something more descriptive. (Luser also can't read the notice beneath the Title field on the comment submission form.)

According to WikiPedia:

... a luser ... is a painfully annoying, stupid, or irritating computer user. It is a portmanteau of "loser" and "user" and is usually pronounced as "loser". The word luser is often synonymous with lamer. In hackish, the word luser takes on a broader meaning, referring to any normal user (in other words not a guru), especially one who is also a loser. ... This term is very popular with technical support staff who have to deal with lusers as part of their job.

Except for the last part (that is inherent to my job), I would say that you are not a luser if you can provide me a patch that enables something other lusers can't do for themselves.

So I'd say, go for it... Glory is something you can only earn doing.
