I need help with displaying a form of ranking for organic groups on Drupal 7 website.

I have a gamer website that allows people to create their own group/clan. The groups will have game matches against each other, and the match scores will be posted on the website. This is where I am running into problems. This is what I have so far. It is a group content type that has all the fields that display like this.

Group1 vs. Group2

Total score Total score
7500-------------2500
Winner!

The main function I need is to have a way to display the top ranking groups by if they won the match or not. so if group one wins 10 matches and group 2 wins 5 matches and group 3 wins 2 matches display like so.(for example on the front page, or "top scorers" page.

Group 1 1st Place
10 wins

Group 2 1nd Place
5 wins

Group 3 3rd Place
2 wins

That is the most basic functionality that I would require so the site members can see which group is doing the best by 1st place 2nd place 3rd place ect.

If at all possible I would love to have this functionality as well.

Group 1 enters their information and group 2 has the ability to enter their information, instead of the way it is now with only one group having to enter all the information.

Install new theme from admin-interface - not working

Hi all!

I'm new to Drupal. Just installed Drupal7.7. Now I would like to try a new theme. I try to install this from Home>>Administration>>Appearance by clicking "Install new theme". Then I get this message:

Your server does not support installing modules and themes from this interface. Instead, install modules and themes by uploading them directly to the server, as described in the handbook.

What's wrong with my server? Or how can I make this work?
My webserver is: lighttpd/1.4.28

Thanks!

Views Module : How to Add Header Just to the Attachment (not the page)

Hi,

I have cloned the "Glossary" view that comes with Views installation. I am trying to add a small text as Header to the Attachment, but it also appears on the Page section as well. How to keep it just for the Attachment and remove from Page?

Appreciated...

SOLVED: impossible to have multilingual pages with English as alternative language

UPDATE: I realize I had a in my configuration: Despite having set the priority on "User profile" with "English" as default language, and having set the Languages Detaction priority to "User", I had missed enabling this option with the checkbox... It works now with es_MX as predefined language and EN as secondary.

Original post:
I have a bilingual site that should default to Spanish. The site however should be accessible for those preferring English. I first discovered that changing the language to Default to Spanish prevents English even though user setting is set to English and User setting for setting the language have been given maximum priority. This in itself is a bug, however, I did try to get around this problem by creating a custom language en_US and a vi macro to clone the content of ever msgid and msgid_plural into msgstr arrays. Import was 100% successful, however the system seem to "optimize" the import when the msgstr is equal to msgid (or maybe equal to what is the root language in this case "en"?).

One of the two got to work - I would recommend using root languages and sub languages so if for example en_US is selected despite es_MX being default, and only override the default if an en_US translation exist.

Shared Signon between Drupal and other applications

I have multiple Drupal sites running but also have/will have some sites which will not be based on Drupal. In general, they are specific applications that will add a new feature to a Drupal site. One such application is actually written in Python/Django. What I want to do is be able to share a signon.

I have looked at Bakery and while it is Drupal-specific, it seems something could be written to use its capabilities but the requirement for being on the same domain is another issue. I have also looked at "external to everything" possible solutions including CAS but none seem like a great fit. Unfortunately, here solutions tend to be "just for Drupal", on Django sites they are "just for Django" and so on.

Looking at all the Drupal alternatives, OpenID SSO seems to come the close to being a good, generic approach. While the server and relay modules are Drupal-specific, it would seem relatively easy to implement a relay module for other types of sites. My questions pretty much boil down to:

  1. Does OpenID SSO make the most sense or is there a better place to start?
  2. Is there anyone else looking for this capability such that we could work together on something generic?
