Drupal 6.x

Hi,

The site I'm building needs to support creation of accounts with multiple users and an account administrator. Features I'd like to implement:

Hi there!

I'm in the process of moving my website to drupal (6). Currently I'm using a homebrewn CMS but I think drupal is the way to go. There are some things I can't get to work though and searching and irc'ing has brought me no further. So here's whats bugging me:

1. OpenID is nice. Very nice. So nice I want to make it the default and only login mechanism on my site. Right now when a user goes to user/login he has to follow yet another link for OpenID login. I don't like this. Is there no way to disable the default login mechanism alltogether? I think this should be a theme thing but I can't find any documentation here. Any hints?

2. I don't like the default way comments are handled in drupal. I'd like the current fields and everything stay just the way it is. But additionally there should be an OpenID field for those, who are not yet logged in. The data from OpenID should then be populated on my website. To sum it up:
required input: OpenID, comment text
optional input: comment title
output: comment, number, openID (linked)
-> optional output (if supplied by openID resource): website, email

Do I have to implement all that on my own? Or are there modules I haven't found out there which can help me with that?

I don't understand why the gallery module goes through so much work to set the page title and breadcrumb when all it needs to do is call menu_set_location(). I upgraded to a more recent release of the Gallery Module thinking that it would actually integrate with the menu system only to find that it only adds its OWN menu, it still doesn't integrate correctly (well, at least I don't think it operates the way I would expect...)

The gallery modules seem to think that a callback function and menu item is required to register within Drupal's menu system, but I don't think that is true. If Gallery would only take all of the work that it does to figure out the tree to (incorrectly) set the breadcrumb, and instead use menu_set_location, it would get the correct page title, the correct breadcrumb(and actually, I think it's currently doing this incorrectly too, see below), and way more: any menus that the user had set up to correspond to an album or item name would automatically become active, and any blocks that depended upon a certain link becoming active would show automatically. I'm pretty darn sure that this automatic behavior, this true menu integration, is what the menu_set_location function is for, and yet the gallery module doesn't use it. Why not?

Hi,

I am looking for a module that will allow someone to register and setup their profile for models/actors. I'd like to have a consistent look to the pages have the users enter their info pictures, video, audio etc...

Thanks for any help!

Hi all

I am trying to update the phpbb2drupal module to use the batch api for drupal 6, but well, not succeeding.

I have issue open at http://drupal.org/node/218966 where I am tracking this, but would love extra eyes as I am stumped. There is a patch in that queue to change the user import function (phpbb2drupal_import_users) to the batch API, but I cannot get it to work.

Just to simplify that patch, what I have done is something like changing this original code:

...
$user_ids = db_query('SELECT user_id FROM %susers WHERE user_id > 2 ORDER BY user_id', $pre);
while ($result = db_fetch_object($user_ids)) {
//Do the import stuff here - this is done once per User-id
}
<code>

to:

<code>
if (!isset($context['sandbox']['progress'])) {
  $context['sandbox']['progress'] = 0;
  $context['sandbox']['user_row'] = 0;
  db_set_active('phpbb');
  $user_count = db_result(db_query('SELECT COUNT(user_id) FROM %susers WHERE user_id > 2 ORDER BY user_id', $pre));
  db_set_active('default');
  $context['sandbox']['max'] = $usercount;
}

...

$limit = 5;
$user_ids = db_query_range('SELECT user_id FROM %susers WHERE user_id > 2 ORDER BY user_id', $pre, $context['sandbox']['user_row'], $limit);

while ($result = db_fetch_object($user_ids)) {
//Do import stuff here

$context['sandbox']['progress']++;
$context['sandbox']['user_row']++;

}

A while back, I looked at creating a site with Drupal (was either late 4.x or 5beta), and kept hitting roadblocks where it came to project management and the various modules available then.
