Drupal 7.x

The ideal is simple - use an external image host (such as Flickr or Facebook) to outsource my image galleries to both decrease the page load time + to reduce my own server load. I found a few modules that can connect to an image hosts API but I need something that is easy to use (non techies operating the site) and can be easily integrated into Drupal 7.

Was thinking of using Facebook as an image host (among other things) and some nice module that would allow me to show galleries on my site the way I have them organized on Facebook. Is it doable?

drupal 7
I try in node.tpl.php :

<?php print render($content['field_surname']); ?>

but it doesn't work.
How should be correctly ?

UPDATE

I've made some progress with this, so thought I would report my findings here in case it helps anyone else.

To summarise, I want to publish a Production schedule, grouped by days for distribution to clients and suppliers. The schedule could span 2 days or 3 weeks and needs time slots in 5 minute increments.

It's a bit clunky, but at the moment I have a views table displaying results pulled from the database. Relationships pull in from a separate content type the related Project title etc (the site needs to have multiple schedules for different projects). I then have exposed filters so that the user can exclude / include various results. Lovely!

One issue I had was storing the time field. As i need to group results by date (so that all entries for a given day group together - then are ordered by time asc) I found I needed separate time and date fields. Storing date and time in one field, meant that results were group by date and time (so all 8am entries on a given day were together, then all 10am entries etc). Not the desired result. Drupal 7 doesn't have a time only field (that i can find) so I had to drop back to Drupal 6. Shame. Two separate date type fields didn't work as date field needs a year (so i could have year, hour & minute).

I then used editview module to make it easier to edit the view. No edit view release for D7 yet though.

Hi Guys,

I am new to drupal and have now got to the stage where I learn about theming. I am modifying the Bluemarine theme on drupal 7 using xampp. Please tell me if the method I have used is good.

I have created a bar for the navlist by adding the images I want to appear on the tab bar to the theme folder and by modifying the page.tpl file section: div id="menu"

as such: http://pastebin.com/nWNwRVtF

And added to the end of the style.css file:

I have tried this multiple times but it doesn't seem to work. What are the steps to moving the site. Should I just copy the entire site folder and move it? Should I intall Drupal 7 and then copy over just some of the files? Which files? Should I reinstall the modules? Do I overwrite the database? What about the htaccess file and robots.txt? The error (if I remember correctly) was something about the database and lock.inc.

Thanks in advance.

Hi there

I'm trying to add page template suggestions to Drupal 7 so I can do things like have page__type--blog.tpl.php to modify the page layout of all blog posts. Here's what I have so far in template.php:
