To rebuild or to integrate?

Hi Drupalers out there,

We have recently created a community based site using Drupal, it has multiple roles and content types and will be used across multiple countries, each needing its own admin system to manage content and users. Fun times!

We are now building an organic groups based multiple community site for the same client. However they would like the existing site to be one of the communities (groups if you like). And that's where we are wondering the best approach.

Different states for a node

Hi,

I need that Drupal changes the node's state if a date comes up

States workflow:

Future --> Open --> Closed

When a user creates content, he has three options (Open, Closed, Future) to specify the actual state of the content. If the state is "Open" then 2 datefields "appears" (FROM and TO) (using conditional fields).
If the state is "Future" then 1 datefield appears (to indicate when the content is gonna be open).

So I need that drupal checks all days the dates of the state to change to another state if it's necessary.

Drupal 5.20 running on server with PHP 5.3, menu.inc error and WSOD settings pages

I am using Drupal 5.20 and recently our server upgraded to PHP 5.3. I ran the PHP 5.3. compatibility patch, but I can still not solve two things:

1. warning: call_user_func_array() expects parameter 2 to be array, string given in .../includes/menu.inc on line 418.

2. I am not able to see the settings of certain modules, for example OG User Roles, Advanced front page... when I click on the settings page I get a blank page, WSOD. Did you come across similar problems?

Appreciate any hints!

6.15 to 6.16: URL Aliases disappear

Hi all,

After updating to core 6.16, I lose all of my existing URL aliases. They are set back to default paths. This happens even before running update.php. Does anyone have any ideas?
