Drupal 7.x

The description of the articles content type says it can be used for time-sensitive content like blogs etc. But there is no information about how this can be done. Is it necessary to create a view and add fields to the content type or am I missing something?

Hi,

I'm fairly new to Drupal, so first of all I'm very happy to have found you.

I just set-up the Drupal installation, everything went well. I started installing some modules amongst which i18n(great stuff).

However while reading about SEO, I've seen that it is recommended to go for URL structures, for multlingual websites such as domain.com/en/....
domain.com/en/....

However in the Detection and Selection of the Languages, for the URL, I can only choose amongst two options:
Path prefix
Domain

Hi,

I have looked at several video tutorials and written text about views and can't seem to figure this out.

I am trying to use views to create a template for my web pages called 'projects' so that when I add content it is formatted in a particular way. The problem I'm having is with the 'path' field. When I enter a value like 'projects' into the path field it creates a page http://mywebsite/projects and places all of my content articles on that page. I would like to know how to get around this.

I'll be as brief as possible, because I'm sure there is an answer that is both simple and obvious, but elusive to me:

How can I replace the default Image field widget with one that understands that I might want to use a server-based image?

Scenario:
I create a content type that uses and image field type. I want to use a widget that let's me browse server-stored images OR upload an image on my local machine. Alas, only the latter seems possible, not the former.

A quick review / speed test of my EukHost dedicated server and my Linode.

I set up a page with one image on a simple Drupal 7 core site to compare my new Linode and my old EukHost dedicated server.

Linode: Debian 1.5GB RAM 64 bit Centos, with Virtualmin, quickly tweaked mysql 5.5 & php 5.3 & APC
Dedicated: E5200 2GB RAM, 64 bit Debian, with cPanel, tuned mysql 5.5 & php 5.3 & APC

On apache bench tests the Linode was about 5% behind in speed and failed requests, but when running 10000 requests with 30 concurrent Linode was marginally ahead.

With warm cache on single page load page generation times shown by Devel module:
Linode: Executed 48 queries in 6.84 ms.
Dedicated: Executed 47 queries in 19.94 ms (often more)

Eukhost give phone support, engineers vary in quality a lot, you can get a good one if you insist. Linode: no phone support, quality & attitude get the thumbs up so far. In theory the Eukhost is a managed server though at the cheap end of managed; network and network maintenance OK, price includes detailed monitoring and backup (which I have not needed to try). I have no real complaints about EukHost, for a server with a certain degree of management their prices are great, but the Linode is better value for those doing their own management. EukHost have one big plus: they say their backup is off-site, Linode's is on-site.

Hi there,

I was just wondering what the general procedure is to style the tabs in the primary menu links. Where is the CSS that takes care of that? How can I change it? At the moment I have a Zen subtheme installed and I would like to completely restyle the tabs.

Any ideas?

Thanks,
