Drupal 7.x

I have implemented the fivestar rating into the comments.
I have two user roles, A and B, and A is not allowed to use fivestar to rate. I used the Field Permissions module to hide the fivestar field for role A. However, when they submit their comments, the fivestars appear empty.How do I hide the empty fivestar field for role A and have it appear only for role B.

I am relatively new to Drupal and would appreciate any help. Thanks in advance.

Hi, I am a newbie with Drupal and have set up Drupal 7 on my local host (xampp) with the recipe module.
I've added some test recipes and when i go to view them I get the following warning:
Strict warning: Only variables should be passed by reference in theme_recipe_summary()
How can I get rid of this warning?
Thanks in advance,
PS

How to create teaser "first node displays teaser + thumbnail photo, then the following node displays only title" with view ?.
i`m using D7.4 and View 7.x-3.0-rc1.
it'd be great for this to be available to the panels module as either a themed view, or a block - and for the same style to be available to show the latest four blog entries, the latest news stories, the latest forum entries, etc.

I'd really appreciate any help or guidance.

cheers

I am trying to set up my blog posts so that the URLs have the title of the posts in them. When I make edits to the patterns under the Configure link in the PathAuto module, I am making sure to update the paths afterwards. So far I have been able to get a blog subcategory with username to work like so:

www.mywebsite.com/drupal/blogs/rocko

But if I click on an article I'll get the node number instead of something like the title:
www.mywebsite.com/drupal/blogs/rocko-20

I'd also like to start seeing blog pages get organized by terms in a Taxonomy I made for them. All the content has been assigned to at least one term.

I hoped somebody here could guide my on patterns, or indicate if it's something else entirely. Here are the patterns I have under Home>Administration>Configuration>Search and metadata>URL aliases:


Content Paths
Default path pattern (applies to all content types with blank patterns below)
content/[node:author]/[current-page:title]
Pattern for all Blog entry paths
blogs/[node:author]/[current-page:title]
Pattern for all Page paths
page/[node:author]/[current-page:title].html
Pattern for all Story paths
story/[node:author]/[current-page:title].html

Taxonomy term paths
Default path pattern (applies to all vocabularies with blank patterns below)
(blank)
Pattern for all Blog Tags paths

I'm currently developing a website that will allow employees to login and upload files to be shared throughout the company.

Is there some sort of file explorer module (similar to Mac or Windows) that shows folder hierarchy and files? Like when you are browsing folders and files using an FTP client. But the user can only view certain folders and files that they have permission to, and only some users can delete and add files.

Thanks!

I am a Drupal newbie who is trying to evaluate my best options to learn 2 things first: THEMING & MODULE DEVELOPMENT

(I know basics of Drupal and can build simple websites that do not require custom php coding, so trying to learn now)

I need to learn 2 things very well - THEMING & MODULE DEVT.

I have 2 questions for which I am looking for perspective from some experienced folks here:

1. Is there a big difference between Drupal 6 and 7 for Theming and Module Devt?
