General discussion

Can I just say that inserting video as nodes into Drupal is brutal?? really, inserting data is really, really complex. That said I'm happy to announce that I have worked out a simple system to insert video as nodes into Drupal's database. Point click, point click.. the node is created and live! The way I have it configured, each node can be commented on and voted on.. sweet huh?

I posted a "inserting data into Drupal" thread before that was pretty rough. I have a more polished version if anyone is interested. It could be used an modified for your own needs.

In this discussion (it's down at the time of posting), the author states that what draws back Drupal is initial impression. To be honest though, who are interested about "plumbing" something? This is what Drupal states - "Drupal - Community Plumbing". Compare with "Joomla! 1.0 - Experience the Freedom!" Also compare Drupal's homepage with Joomla's. Which gave the better impression?

Newbie question. How do I access Drupal variables in a block? I try to write some PHP codes in a block but all Drupal variables return null. (such as $primary_links, $site_name). I thought they are accessible... Thx!

Hi guys, does anyone know if there is a way to intergrate a system like sms reverse/premium to a drupal site? Are you aware of any Drupal site that currently uses sush a system for access to a restricted area. Help will be much much appreciated.

Thanks

I've tried phptemplate_
form
form_element
fieldset
textarea
textfield

in template.tpl.php

All I'm rying to do is theme the forms on the user profile edit page, the page where you type in your name, password, email etc. I assume that I should use
print form_render($form);
in the user_edit.tpl.php (the file I'm calling from template.php).
Can somone tell me how I do this, what function I should be using and the syntax.
Thanks
