Stuck & need advice Drupal 7: need to upload csv data without Feeds

Hi,

Relative newbie here...

Here is the workflow I'm going for:

user (not a drupal admin or even a content developer per se) is offered an upload ability for CSV file (more than that but keeping the xample simple for now). Each row is destined to become drupal content.

Ideally, I'd like to offer the user the ability to review the rows (via a grid with options to remove or edit things), and then insert the rows as drupal nodes, owned by the user (as author, as UID) to ensure others cannot see these records

At minimum right now, however, I would just like to upload the file and present the data in a page (as just rows) to prove it can work. I'm stuck how to do this (do I put the presentation code in the submit handler, do I redirect to a new php page and if so how do I retain the filename information about what is uploaded?). I have demonstrated that I can upload a file. Just have no idea how to process and display it after submitting it...

In general, I wanted to use Feeds, but Feeds CSV is limited to assigning all imported data as either anonymous or a specific user (unless I can stuff $uid in the mapping settings?), so I'm assuming that won't work for me (and most documentation I can find suggests this is more of an admin tool?)

Where can I read detailed patch notes?

Hi guys,

I just read that Drupal 7.2 came out recently. I'd like to find a complete list of changes that have been made in this release, but the CHANGELOG.txt that comes with the files sounds a bit generic (e.g. "Numerous critical performance improvements" etc.) and the page about version 7.2 - http://drupal.org/node/1168946 - lists all the changes committed since version 7.0.

Is there a place where I can read *in detail* about changes that have been made *exclusively* in Drupal 7.2 (like with any other software)?

Nice to have modules for blogs

Popular content : Todays , All time , Last viewed block

Hi,

This is my first question to the Drupal community:).

I noticed, Drupal-7(core) has block to display the "Popular content : Todays , All time , Last viewed". It works fine , but the issue is, I want to filter (exclude)certain nodes in it. For example, I don't want to display "About us" page.

Is there any way to do it by tweaking the code. I don't want to create a new view page for this.

Here is the website url http://etopmost.com

thanks

Menu items with url queries not working in Drupal 7

Upgraded to Drupal 7.2 from 6.22 and seem to have most things working now EXCEPT my menu items that had url queries in them now no longer work - the query is stripped out of the menu - also if I try and list/edit my menu I get
Fatal error: Unsupported operand types in E:\domains\p\philsnelson.co.uk\user\htdocs\includes\common.inc on line 2174

An example of a url used in 6.22 would have been

New region/block for search only shows for logged in user

I'm using Zen and D7, and no matter where I place

    <?php if ($page['search_area']): ?>
      <?php print render($page['search_area']); ?>
    <?php endif; ?>

and no matter how I set the block to display for various users, it will not show for anonymous users. It will show up if I'm logged in as admin. What am I missing?
