Installing Drupal

Can anyone help me get poormanscron working on 4.2? I have the CVS version running on drupal CVS on my local windows machine but not 4.2 on a hosted site. I have cron support under site configuration disabled (as on the windows machine) but enabling appears to make no difference. What is required for this module to work properly?

I have a question concerning the htmlarea module (cvs version). If i switch to text-mode and manually insert a theme-image, the src attribute gets re-written (/admin/node/edit/), breaking the image. I checked the source of htmlarea.module, but couldn't find anything relevant. I've also search the forums and mailinglists, to no avail. Is there anyway i can get around the rewriting part?

Thanks in advance!

Hi,

After evaluating several CMSs I finally settled upon Drupal for our Linux User Group site. (http://www.lugs.org.sg). The overall look/functionality is excellent, However, there are some small bugs. One of them is the following error message when "files" link is clicked:

An error occured while loading http://www.lugs.org.sg/?q=filestore:
Connection to host www.lugs.org.sg is broken

Hi,

I find it quite cumbersome to download one-module/one-theme at a time from the web browser. Is there a single tarball (say 4.2.0 + all the modules+ all themes that work on 4.2.0) ? If not it may be a good idea to produce one. What do you think?

BTW, to ease my own downloading, I have made a quick and dirty script for getting all 4.2.0 modules/themes & related readme's. Get the script or the all-in-one tarball at:

Please let me have your feedback!

Hi All,
New Drupal user here, just installed this afternoon and am loving it!

I'm curious as to changing the behaviour of how content is displayed on the homepage. I'm sure this is easy in PHP but I am new to both it and Drupal!

I'd like to list each type of content together, so the page would list the last, say 2 blogs, then stories, then user blogs, so on and so forth.

I assume this would be done in the theme I am using, but again I am not too clued in on the parameters I need to try here.

Thanks in advance!

Geoffrey

Help!

I have just configured Drupal 4.2.0 according to the documentation on a Red Hat 7.3 server with mysql. Every feature seems to work correctly except for editing user information. Regardless of what field (username, theme, password, etc.) I edit or change, after I click the Save button it goes back to exactly the way it was before.

I have seen other posts from people that have had this problem, but never a resolution. Any ideas?

thanks,

Dennis
