Installing Drupal

How I can make in main page - ARCHIVE TODAY
Using module archive

example http://mysite.com/archive/today
and on this page will open today posts

OR

how I can publish posts in main page by date
(i using node&taxonomy in main page -- posts sort not by date -- it`s my trable)

which file would I change? I want to make entries on the homepage appear with more structurally sound HTML (Heading tags for titles) etc.

also is it possible to have a slightly different stylesheet apply to a section so for instance the forums has a different color scheme from the blogs?

TIA

What all do I need to have if I wanted to make a users only page?

I think I need to do some includes.. or.. something, but as to what I have no clue. All I've figured out is

if ($user->uid) {
?
OMG THX 4 RGSTRN!!1one
?php
} else {
?
html
RGSTR PLZKTHXU
/html
?php

(took out < and >)

but..

the problem is I don't know what I need to put before it so that it includes some of the drupal code to actually tell if it is a logged in user or not. any suggestions?

Im having trouble figuring out how to make the blocks go where I want them! Lets say this:

I have a page called "Games".

In that page I want 3 different blocks to show up in the CENTER (as the content of that page) each of which will contain screenshots and descriptions for each of the 3 games... How do I do this? theres only a "left" and a "right" option in placing blocks!?

Any help would be appreciated!

Thanks,

Christopher

Hi,

I just startet using Drupal 4.2.0. Being uable to find a german translation i want to translate at least a minimum of the text used in the frontend.

But i afraid I encountered a strange problem in the very beginning of this process: in my localestable i found many entries having a location-column looking like "/blog/?q=node&PHPSESSID=6cfb31ef00910...". So my nice handcrafted translations won't be found by any user not having the PHPSESSIONID stored in the localestable (virtually and of course hopefully nearly all users. :-) ).

I have confirmed stories are set to read / write and user permissions (tried using user 1 and a user belonging to an admin group with administer permissions), but clicking on Administer at the bottom of a story or in Content Management clicking Edit Node, results in nothing, the browsers acts as it is opening a new page, but you do not actually go anywhere but where you allready were.
