Is it necessary to update d6 modules and core prior to upgrading to d7?

Hi all,

I had a long break from Drupal and web development and I'm now trying to get back into it as I have finally decided to upgrade my website.

I have done some initial research and I am a little bit unclear about the following (any quick heads up would be greatly appreciated!)

Views exposed filter + Decimal field and dropdown

Hi All,

Hopefully someone would be able to help me here. I've searched all that I could but can't find an answer.

expert in $query->add_orderby ( hook_views_query_alter) how add ORDER BY (field1>field2) DESC

function kook_views_query_alter(&$view, &$query) {
$query->add_orderby('node', 'field1', 'DESC');
}

so is possible to change one sql view from this
SELECT node.nid AS nid, ...
FROM node node ....
ORDER BY node_sticky DESC

to this
SELECT node.nid AS nid, ...
FROM node node ....
ORDER BY node_sticky DESC, node_field1 DESC

but how can have this:
SELECT node.nid AS nid, ...
FROM node node ....
ORDER BY node_sticky DESC, (field1>field2) DESC

Block linked to missing external MySQL DB causing site not to load

My site has a block on every page that has code drawing data from a MySQL database on another server. The server running that DB failed. I shamefully have no backup of this DB. Working on recovering it from failed server.

In the meantime, My site does not load. I get "Could not connect to MySQL Database" when trying to load the page. That block is on every page, I think. Is there a way to get past this so that I can disable the block containing the code that points to the missing DB? Is there a file I can edit to do this?

Views filters getting dropped and needing cache clush

I have a view of civicrm contacts which is filtered based on a custom yes/no value. Randomly, yet frequently, this filter does not happen when the info is displayed, resulting in a publicly viewable list of every contact in civicrm. Specifically it is this page http://www.fairtrademusicpdx.org/endorsements. This obviously is not good. It is easily fixed by flushing all caches, but requires someone with admin rights to catch it.
