This forum is for less technical discussions about the Drupal project, not for support questions.

here: can't use search

the new support tab is disabling the "search" feature.

but, I bet you already knew that :-)

Anyone interested in VTiger integration?

I've done a little work on VTiger recently (long time drupal fan BTW) and I can't help but think that drupal would be a sweet cms add-on. So far I have put some hacks together in the users and address module that will create a "Lead" in vtiger whenever a new user signs on. I'd like to go deeper into the ecommerce and product management part of integration though. Right now drupal just acts as a simple SOAP client to vtiger but further integration would change this.

So.. is anyone else intersted in this? Would module maintainers take these kinds of changes to modules?

simplenews to pull content from website?

Does ayone know whether simplenews has notify features in it or something that pulls content from the site like latest stories, blogs, forum, comments to create newsletter content. Or does one have to create newsletter content from scratch? Or is there another module that does that what I just describe? Or does notify module allow annoymous users to sign up?

Thanks.

Tracker module. Is it the focal point of a Drupal site?

I've just seen the recent Drupal.org survey, and the question "We should improve the "recent posts" page so posts can be filtered by type, category, etc:". This is something I've wanted since I first used Drupal a long time ago, but have never really got around to doing.

/tracker is the most frequently accessed page on our busiest community site, and probably on many others. On most visits to Drupal.org the only two pages I hit are /tracker and /cvs. The information on the tracker page doesn't really provide any context to the node titles it lists except for the type, so I find the experience to be quite detached and random. For example, if I visit /tracker now I see a topic called "Good start. Here's how I polished mine", and I can see that it's an issue. I have no idea what project this issue is linked to, or even what the issue is actually about. Until I view the page, it's just a random lump of content in a list. I don't know where it fits into the overall site structure.

Considering how central the tracker is to a busy Drupal site, I think it deserves some serious attention. If I want to know what's been happening since my last visit, I have to read every random issue in the list to see if it's related to a module that we use or a bug we've encountered, and the notion of sorting forum topics into categories loses all meaning when they're just presented to the use in a large list with "forum topic" as their only anchor.

Can I rename drupal.css?

Can I rename drupal.css with general.css?

Problem with parametric settings.php and multiple DB access !!!

I have a problem with settings.php file. I want all user with an account can access to mysql db with their some one username and password and not with a common account with all privileges on drupal DB as specified by default in settings.php.
I made a different database and I set only "SELECT" privileges on this. Now, my problem is this:

In settings.php I set:

global $user;
$db_url['default'] = 'mysql://xxx:xxx@localhost/drupal';
$db_url['mydb'] = "mysql://$user->name:$user->pass@localhost/mydb";
