Speaking to companies who host Drupal websites, what sort of systems do you use for automatic updates of contributed modules and/or Drupal core? Other than the obvious steps of testing updates in a non-production environment and scripting the actual file updates, what best practices are there the perspective of a company hosting multiple (20+) Drupal websites for clients?

Thanks,

Hi, i am new to drupal and I am install drupal 7 for my final year project and ive got problem with settings file but i have already created settings.php but still wont work. i need help!

Settings file The settings file does not exist.
The Drupal installer requires that you create a settings file as part of the installation process. Copy the ./sites/default/default.settings.php file to ./sites/default/settings.php. More details about installing Drupal are available in INSTALL.txt.

I was wondering if there was a way to add a break between the shouts if I were to put the shoutbox in the header of my website. My users prefer it so I thought I'd ask.

Example:

w/o break:

username:shout username:shout

w/ break:

username: shout
username: shoutbox

Of course I'll limit the number of shouts shown

I am a web developer/designer and have been looking for a good framework that I can use for my projects, but one that will also integrate seamlessly into a CMS that is hopefully easy to use for my clients. So naturally, Drupal was the first brought to my attention. I have installed and messed around with it, and while I haven't gotten my head wrapped around it yet, I like what I see.

I've read a bit about there being a fair amount of differences between 6 and 7. Would it still be worthwhile for me to start learning on 6 (which I have a book about, "Pro Drupal Development") or should I wait until 7 is out? I'd really hate to learn something and then have to completely undo my way of thinking to suit the latest version. I don't want to get stuck in a position with a large project and a framework I don't understand (I've been there, it equals angry clients and hair loss. I like my hair and want to keep what's left of it).

I'm really scratching my head with this

In D6 there was the db_result() but not in D7

I found the way to do the same thing but not quite. here's my statement

$menu_title = db_query("SELECT link_title FROM {menu_links} WHERE router_path = 'quotes'")->fetchField();

Then added this to debug
