Hi - am using Drupal 4.3 and the profile module with support from avatars. I should mention that I copied over the avatar directory (/misc/avatars) from the 4.2 installation. All the users still have their avatars.

Only problem now is that no one can upload any new or changed avatars. It's enabled. /misc/avatars is drwxrwxrwx. There's no error message. The avatars are simply not being uploaded or updated.

Don't tell me that I'll need to erase all avatars (or even worse, the entire profile.mysql table)? How do I diagnose this problem?

I recently upgraded to 4.3.0 and it was not without issue. Now the content is displayed correctly and the Archives work, but both the Search and Log-In are broken! When I click on "Log in", the q=user page is simply reloaded. This happens will all accounts, whether the username or password is correct or not. I've tried from multiple browsers on multiple machines .

Using the "Administrator Approval" account creation model, the prospective member is getting a message saying that their request has been submitted for approval, but not another saying they are free to log on, once the approval goes through. Are they supposed to, or is that email only for people approved without review?

First, I would like to limit the number of lines that are shown when stories get listed -- currently about 15 lines of the story are shown -- I would like to cut this down to about 6 lines.

Second, since I would like to read like a paperback or magazine - I would like to limit the number of lines that are shown when the "read more" is clicked to about 55 to 60, and then show a page 2,3,4...next type of link.

I understand that this will probably take some coding to achieve, but a point in the right direction would be helpful.

What file(s) should I be looking at?

I've searched for info on this and haven't found any...

I've set up a test site for v4.3 and am running v4.2 on my main site. They are two individual sites with individual domains and databases. The only thing they share is the server itself.

When I installed the new version and created the first account, all went well. But since then, new accounts cannot be setup by the user; I need to manually create accounts in the admin section.
