Can anybody link to a guide to quickly set up a localhost only FTP server for use with Drupal 7 module installation?

I'm running Ubuntu 10.04. I have no desire to constantly run an FTP server, nor do I want it to listen to anything except localhost requests. Is there a quick a dirty program out there to achieve this?

Alternatively, if I do need to go the lengthy route, is there a recommended procedure/software to use?

I remember long ago I messed with VSFTPD and ended up feeling a bit beaten up and ran away, hence my fear of playing with such a command line based FTP server.

Thanks!

WTF is calling yui.yahooapis.com?

While testing my site speed, I keep seeing these calls to yahoo.
I can't figure out what module is calling this, or how to stop this.

for example:
http://yui.yahooapis.com/2.8.0r4/build/container/assets/skins/sam/contai...

I don't have any yahoo related modules that I can find. Any ideas what could be doing this, is there a default module for drupal that uses this?

Drush keeps telling that site updates are pending but displays a blank list

My newly upgraded to Drupal 7.0 website seemed to be in pretty good condition, with the site functional and Drush showing all core and contrib tables up-to-date.

But then the following problem began occurring: When I run update now, I am given a **completely empty** list of updates -- see transcript below -- and no matter how many times I consent to the update, I still get the request that it's needed again:

o4345076821.ftp:/data/disk/o4345076821/distro/003/drupal-7.0/sites/d7stage.somatics.org$ drush dbup
The following updates are pending:

Do you wish to run all pending updates? (y/n): y
Finished performing updates.                                                                                                                                            [ok]
o4345076821.ftp:/data/disk/o4345076821/distro/003/drupal-7.0/sites/d7stage.somatics.org$ drush dbup
The following updates are pending:

Do you wish to run all pending updates? (y/n): y

And that goes on and on indefinitely.

newbie need help with gallery and images

Hi, I defined a content type that is an image, and users are allowed to upload this type of content. I would like the images to go directly into a gallery. I was able to define the gallery content type, but I am not sure how to automatically have user uploaded images go into the gallery?

TIA!

Splitting exposed filters widgets

Hi folks!
As you know - all exposed forms for one View appear in one placement, and can be displayed only in single block. We can make some customization of exposed filters widgets using views-exposed-form.tpl.php template. But we can't to output one exposed filter form in sidebar, and another - in top of content (as default).
So the question is - How to output different exposed filter forms in different regions (or in any place)?
What is clear, Drupal way for it?
Thanks

How do I display the latest comment page?

Hi all,

I have been searching for a while but I was unable to find the solution. I really need your help.

How do I display the last comment page when I click on a forum topic? Since I have too many replies in a topic, it was very inconvenience to scroll the page down to bottom, then click on the last page to view the latest comments.

Thanks for your help.
Kelly
