Article posting: rich text, image upload, placement, From user perspective, how can I make it more like wordpress?

Modules installation works not properly when it's done over D7 UI

Hi there,
I experienced now with different modules (panels, zen_theme, zenophile) that if I install them by choosing "Admin, Modules, Install New Module" they are installed and then I activate them but for somehow reason they do not work properly. So I get 403 Forbidden errors. Especially with Images.

How to specify folder paths in Drupal links?

I am working with Drupal 7.9 The root folder of the Drupal site is "myonline"

Big problem: site blank after update mistake

Hi
I have a site (D7.8) which had several modules that needed updating. I planned to first update the over about 15 -20 modules in steps, before moving on to updating to D7.9
This went on well for a while. After every few modules, I would run DB update.
During the update of the last few, I decided to start uploading the D7.9 files in the background, which ended around the same time (which I should not have done) & so I decided to run the DB update script.
The site could not load after that.

hook_form_alter()

Hi,
The documentation says when overriding this function it should be placed in a .module file, but where does

module in the UI?

Any pointers?

Thanks.
