Can't Log In

My site is showing in offline mode (I don't remember putting it in offline mode but there it is) and when do the "mysite.com/user" gag, it takes me to the log in page—only there's no way to actually log in. No input boxes.

Now wut?

User area items

I need to have users upload items for trade that will then show up only in their user account. I will also need to assign points value for each item. The user need to see his items and assigned points, and nobody else. Should I make a new content type and how would each show up only in the specific users account? This is a bit of an odd duck I know...
Thanks Rog

sidebar-first sidebar-second

how can i configure drupal to not display sidebar-first and sidebar-second to display on the front page but allow it to be display on any other page?

Website Scope, Dynamic Content, Databases, and Paywalls.

I want to make a website with (free) content(such as industry news, updated weekly at most) as well as (both paid and free) MySQL query output (product information).

I believe that Drupal would be great for the static/dynamic content part of the site.
I'm worried about displaying information to users.

I plan on having a database that is partially available for free. A user would be able to select check boxes to search for "Vehicles with 2-4 wheels which cost between 10,000-30,000 in Boston," and get the information they need, save the persons' contact information for most results.

I would also like to have a database which is behind a pay-per-query wall which can search a different database which is similar to the free one, except in that the information is complete and can find the sellers' contact information.

Both of the results should be shown in a table and the paid query should be done in a transaction kind of way.

Would the Drupal User Login features allow me to go as far as record how much they have in an account (if any) , or would this require many modules?

I'm familiar with MySQL output using PHP in Dreamweaver, and I'm curious as to how I could do this in Drupal.
I believe that the 2 functions of my site (static content and database search) are unrelated from a web-design point of view, but I want them to both exist on the same site.

Can I set up a shopping cart for rentals that manages payment/inventory?

Looking to build a site for a boat rental company. They only have a few boats and they want to be able to manage payments and inventory thru their website.

For example: They have 3 boats. Two of the boats are rented on Saturday so they only want to show one is available. Is there a mod for this? Ubercart?

Thank you

Creating a User Agreement for Drupal 7

I really like the idea of having a User Agreement form. I see that there is a User Agreement for Drupal 6 http://drupal.org/project/agreement And there is work in progress for a Drupal 7 port http://drupal.org/node/1060836 .
I'm looking forward to looking at this module once there is a Drupal 7 release.

In the meantime, there is a makeshift way to have a user agreement that the users have to agree to when signing up. It will be on the Registration page, but I can live with that for now. Here is how to do it. (I would suggest that you test if first on your test site, as I usually do.)

Although you can do a very similar thing without using the Profile2 module, these instructions are for the Profile2 module, http://drupal.org/project/profile2 assuming that you have it and the Entity module http://drupal.org/project/entity installed first. Then go to:
Administration » Structure » Profile types
Create and save a New Profile type called "Agreement" or "User Agreement"

Add new field: Field type: List(text), Widget: Check boxes/radio buttons
At the bottom of the page Press "Save".

On the next page, under the "Allowed Values list" enter these two sentences:
I don't agree to the below agreement
I agree to the below agreement
click on "Save Field settings"

On the Main Profile Settings page:
Click on "[x] Required field"
