Drupal 7.x

Not sure the best place to look for this feature. Using og as classes in a school website eg year1, year2 etc. At the end of each year all pupils move up a year. Eg pupils who were in og year4 group move to year5 group etc . Is there a bulk update tool/rule that could mange this?

I'm in the process of moving a Drupal site from one provider to another. I've done this quite often with matching version installations.

The job had to be done quickly so I used the Fantastico option of Drupal 7 (without even realizing it was version 7). I loaded the database and most of the content was available.

Disclaimer: I'm learning drupal.

Is it bad form to use Drupal's UI to create custom content types for a production site instead of defining them in a module? I feel like if the database got corrupted then I loose everything whereas if I have my content types defined in a module then it would be easy to reimplement them for a new site. Thoughts...?

I have been obsessed with getting the page load time of my site to as low as I can. Since drupal+my design use like a gazillion pieces of JS, my site had become pretty heavy and was taking a LOT of time to load. Right now I have been able to decrease the overall page load time significantly and very impressed by the current performance.

Except for one hiccup. Facebook widgets (or as they like to call - social plugins) like the 'Like Box', Activity Feed and Recommendations.

Does any know how to make the date field limit it's granularity to year, month, day?

Here's the code for my field:

'eventday' => array(
	'field_name' => 'svevent_eventday',
	'type' => 'date',
	'label' => $t('Day of Event'),
),

Here the code for my instance:
