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

Help with image teasers, please

I've searched high and low to solve this problem but maybe someone can point me in the right direction...please.

I'm working on a news site. I have a main page that being created with the views and panels modules, and I'm using taxonomy and custom node types (from copying story module) to create sections like nation, local, opinion, etc.

On the main page at the top I have a lead article. I'm using the excerpt module to create the teaser with the image. And image assist to put one image in the teaser and one in the body, separately - which is fine by me. Currently, I'm using the same size (large) picture in the teaser as in the body. I'm doing this of course to get that lead story look that news sites have.

The problem is, when the section (that is, taxonomy term) is viewed which contains this article, the teaser of course has a large image. And it doesn't look good. I'd like for the images in the sections to be thumbnailsl. Is there any way - maybe a php snippet or something - where I can have the teaser for a certain page with a certain term show the same size image as the one in the body and in the sections only it shows the thumbnail image? (I say certain page and certain term because on the same page for the 2nd headline I'm using the regular thumbnail image and I would want to change this, just for the lead article.)

Reservation form, that sends email, with calendar showing occupied and free days

Hello

I need some help!!!! :)

I am building a site for a client that rents a weekend house (drupal 4.7, or 5.1).

I need to create a reservation form, that sends email, with calendar showing occupied and free days. The house will be rented as one, not as rooms separatly.

The form should include: name, email, phone, arrival date, leaving date, send copy to email, and a text area for questions/comments.

Can you give me some advice, I need it ASAP, so if you have any experiences with it, I will be glad to learn from you.

Thank you

Placement of error messages or new error description page

Hi all,

At the moment, when an error occurs (eg. a login error, or an error in preg_macht()) it is placed at the top of the page, inline with the content.

Where can I find this placement? I did some searching (with grep) through the *.js files, and the page.tpl.php files with keywords like "error, Error, login, warning, user". But nothing turned up that made any sense to me for the placement location of the error message.

I would like to have two options:

Administration theme is not working on block page.

Hi all,

I am busy creating a new theme for Drupal 5.1 but that theme does is not designed for all administration pages. Fortunate, in 5.1 you can define a administration theme. The problem is that when opening the blocks page the administration theme you have set is exchanged for the theme I am working on.

My idea is that this is standard because in your blocks page you can see where everything is positioned which should make it more easily to design the whole package.

How to get a "flat" forum?

Hi,

I'm trying to get a forum which resembles a regular forum, i.e. a flat-style forum with appropriate layout etc. I have downloaded and installed the flatforum-module, but that doesn't make the forum flat (still "threaded" and it still just looks like it is a topic and then comments (which it is, I realize, since that is the Drupal way of making it)).

How to remove pages from recent posts

I've created my site hierarchy for a forum site with the recent posts node promoted to the front page. The annoying thing is that I can't quite figure out how to get the static pages that I've created out of the recent posts.

Does anyone know what I should be doing?
