Drupal is up and running but how do I ...?

charset problem, my ISP couldnt handle

Our site is at www.poetikhars.com and My ISP moved server from one place to another. And I guess they changed the Mysql 4.0 to 4.1.

And everything gone trashy. It has been two weeks and they couldnt find any solution about the trashed charset. (please check site to understand what i mean)

Any ideas? Site is turkish, but using UTF-8. But after update it turned to latin.

My other sites which using wordpress in the same SQL db, working fine.

Any help?

Some questions concerning Taxonomy/node linking and interaction

I've been playing around with Drupals taxonomy features, and I'm pretty impressed with what they can. At the moment I'm stuck, though.

Here is a sample page from my site in development that illustrates how I'm using Taxonomies.

  • I have a category with a single term set up for each of my comics
  • Each comic also has another category called "storyline" that uses a free-form text field for its terms -- this allows me to group comics together into story arcs when appropriate
  • Each comic also has a category called "characters" which lists the major characters that appear in each comic -- this allows someone to click on a character name and view every comic that character appears in

This is something that I didn't even try to do in WordPress -- it would have been too difficult and time consuming. It's a relatively easy process with Drupal. It takes a little planning, but the work is just data entry.

Hooks for Beginers

Hi

Is there any links to support on how to create hooks and a brief description of what hooks are and why they are used??

The reason i ask this as, having played around with drupal for several weeks now, i now have a site that looks good and and has all the functionality i require. However, still being relatively new to it all, I don't understand where or how i implement a hook.

Contemplate teaser in a block?

Ok lets say I have a CCK content type called bikeclub_event and I've used contemplate to get this teaser format

Database Schema out of date on fresh install?

I just installed (or rather "re-installed") userpoints. The database tables didn't exist even though it was enabled (I only co-maintain this site, so I don't quite know why), so I deleted the userpoints entry from the system table, then reloaded /admin/build/modules and enabled the module again.

The database schema was created this time, and it worked as it should.

However, I then got a "database schema out of date" message, and saw that the module I had just installed needed to update its table.
