General discussion

I am working on a project, and would like to add a page node without going through drupal, thus editing the mysql tables directly. I know that I will need to modify the sequence and node tables. Is there anything else that needs to be modified to add a simple page?

hi:

i am currently using free tagging in one vocabulary and then display the terms as a tag cloud using tagadelic. i would like to have a tagcloud in the user profile showing only their tags that link only their associated nodes per user.

any ideas how to do this¨?

also, are there any snippets to show tag clouds in different ways like most viewed tags today and so on instead of tags with most nodes.

thanks.

i am trying to enable anonymous comments on my drupal site (which is set up as a blog).

i have enabled 'post comments without approval' for the anonymous user in the access control section, but they are still being asked to 'login or register to post comments'.

i thought that perhaps this was because my default input format is 'rich text' (i.e. no filters) - but i still have the same problem if i switch to Filtered HTML.

can anyone tell me what might be blocking anonymous commenting?
i am using drupal 4.7.2.

I want to set up a Dating Community with Drupal - does anybody know some dating sites, which are built with Drupal or a other CMS?

Any resources???

Thanks

This a my use case of Drupal:

I want to write a post in my blog with an image

So:
I write a post with the tinymce WYSIWYG editor
I use image_assist to upload an image, I put an image title and description, then I select the uploaded image and I got in the post the thumbnail that links to the image node.

This is very easy to do, but I'd like to show in the post the metadata I wrote for the image in the thumbnail, something similar to what a newspaper does(http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/europe/5193116.stm) and I don't what to rewrite the description on the Image again.

What do you think is the best way to do it?

- a filter?
like [image:234] and then I replace this tag in the post with the correct template(*)

- a filter with regexp on a pseudo-html image tag?
that replace <a href="234_big.jpg"><img id="special" src="234.jpg" /></a> with my template(*)
This filter would leave intact the logic even if you migrate to other CMSes that doesn't support this translation but you have to convert image name in id.. or load the title from the EXIF/JPTC info embedded in the image

- any other ideas?

I wouldn't like to broke the compatibility with the wysiwyg editor and I'd like to do this changes on runtime, so I could redit the content in future.

This "HTML extension" tecniques could be also used for the syntax highlight of the code like:

<code lang="ruby">
  puts 'ciao'
< /code>

in

<code lang="ruby">
  <span style="color:red;"puts</span> <span style="color:green;"'ciao'</span>
< /code>

(*)template

Description taken with a query from image id 234 or JPTC

I'm a newbie to Drupal and I don't quite understand how CVS works. Can someone explain its purpose and process? Thanks!
