Drupal 7.x

Is there a decent tutorial on converting themes from 6 to 7 yet? Google's not turning up anything substantive for me.

There's the Converting 6.x themes to 7.x page, of course. I bet you could learn what you need to know from it, provided you have enough time to read and comprehend 22 pages of densely written text arranged in an apparently haphazard order bearing no relationship to the sequence of steps involved in actually converting a theme. It's not really a guide; more of a changelog.

Hello,

I am trying to install Drupal 7 locally, and it faiuls when I try to provide MySQL data:

- the ditribution is unpacked, sites/default is made writable by Web server, sites/default/files is created and made writable by Web server
- the http://example.com is loaded and installation starts

On step 3, when I copy sites/default/default.settings.php to sites/default/settings.php (Drupal doesn't do that, even though the directory is Web server writable), I am only offered SQLite engine choice.

When I manually add MySQL data, the installation fails with PHP fatal error. The trace is in the end of posting.

So, in short, is it really possible to install Drupal 7 on MySQL database? How it is done?

Hi Guys,

The books module seems perfect for what I want to do; each 'book' will represent a users' fish tank for updates on that tank. I have a few questions though and am hoping to be pointed in the right direction.

Can I rename 'book' ? If you add content, it says 'Book: Your page will be part of the selected book'
Can I add properties to a book? In my example. a 'book' (which represents a fish tank) would have lights, litreage, type etc. This also applies to the book pages, could they have properites (like water parameters: pH, Ammonia etc)

Hi,

I would like to replace the title of my blocks with images, now what i have done is
