General discussion

Hi
I've used the moderation for all forum, so when a registered person post, they get this message above,or something similar advising that its being "created", but this is a bit unclear and could lead to the wrong message, as in I would prefer to change this to more accurately reflect what is actually happening, which is that its gone tot he administrator for approval.

So i'd prefer it say something like: thanks for your post, the admiistrator will review your post before publishing.

I have put a form for customers contact on my web site.
When submited it calls a perl module which sends a message to an gmail account.
It works very fine except when users write accents and c cedil characters (portuguese language).
In this case, received message displays garbage characters instead.
I think it is an encoding question.
How and where do I fix this?

Thans in advance for any reply.

I'm extremely new, and have just started inspecting Drupal. So go easy on me, if I'm asking a stupid question. Then again, some of the best questions are stupid ones . . .

Can you really make a top-rate site with Drupal? I was drawn to the program when I heard that The Onion uses it. But almost all of the other samples I see -- although functional enough -- are not nearly on the same level. Is this just a matter of graphic design and template design? Could you concievably run an impressive site like nytimes.com (or some other high-traffic portal) on Drupal?

I went to settings/maintainance and set it to site offline. Until now, I was always able to get the login screen by entering /user after the domain name.

Now, it doesn't work and I get a 505 error screen.

Is there a way somehow through the back end cpanel, I can turn the site to online again?

Thanks..gray97

hi:

i was just looking at this page
http://video.google.com/videoranking

and was wondering if it is possible to do a ranking like that with drupal and which modules would be user for that.

i have used the vote up down module but what about the comparison to yesterdays ranking etc?

thanks

I have installed drupal and configured it now i need to add registration forms to users to register so that i need to collect information from them.I am designing this site for my college symposium,so i need to have separate login stuff.I need to have form actions in my pages.I have php code to achieve this but could not link to the require pages as drupal considers every page as node.
I need to do stuff like <form action="somefile.php">.
I s this possible or else i should write some user modules.
