General discussion

1. Is there a way to search only modules? I am having a very hard time finding specific modules.
2. How do I turn my "notifications on" for my posts, so that I will recieve and email when I recieve a reply?

Hi all, I'm building a site using drupal and I need to have it available in different languages.

What I've gathered so far is that I should be using the localization module and the .po standard.

Another option would be still to use the localization module but to use google translations instead.

Can anyone tell me what would probably be easier and more reliable? advantages and disadvantages? suggestions?

How about the I18N module? Would that help me anyhow?

thanks a lot..

Just had to comment on two new modules that are rock'n. The IM module(recently by killes&jbellsey) and the Gmap Modules(webgeer&yecarrillo), really turn it up a notch. On top of all the great features, functions and augmentations of the Drupal CMS, these just add that extra polish.

Great work.

<?php

$taxo_id = array();
// Add one line for each taxonomy term id you want to limit the thumbnails to
// As an example, the following two lines would select images associated with taxonomy terms 36 OR 37

I downloaded the Channel Nine theme but can't see how to add content to the right columns. They don't show up in the blocks. There was no documentation with the theme.

This looks like the relevant part of page.tpl.php, but I don't know what it means:

<?php if ($right1) { ?>
    <div id="right1">
      <?php print $right1 ?>
    </div>
  <?php } ?>

  <?php if ($right2) { ?>
    <div id="right2">
      <?php print $right2 ?>
    </div>
  <?php } ?>
