Turn Off Blog Teaser on Front Page

I am trying to make my blog display the full article on the front page. Currently it only displays a teaser and new members are not seeing the full articles. I have tried to change the teaser length to 2000 words but this does not work. Any help will be greatly appreciated.

Thank you in advance.

profile.module - can't update field

I'm not sure this happen to others before. I've enabled the profile.module and created a couple of new custom fields (e.g. location, occupation, gender & ...). Once all the fields are created, then i tried to update my profile on my account -> edit. I've tried a couple of times but it won't update. Any advice?

And here are some of the information of the system:

Drupal 4.7.5
IIS 6.0
MySQL 5.0
Clean URL enabled using ISAPI_Rewrite
A lot of modules installed.

how to turn on/off comments

I would like to turn comments on for some content types and off for others. I thought that this option was controlled through admin>>settings>>contentypes, but it seems to be having no effect. Here's what I mean.

I have comments turned off for my 'Directory' content type (CCK) but when I go to my directory page I see 'add new commnet' under each teaser... ?!

On the other hand I have comments turned on for my 'DJ' content type (CCK), but when I look at the node teasers, or full nodes I don't see 'add new coment' anywhere.. ?!

Publishing entries in the future

Hi,

At Free Software Magazine we use Drupal in a bit of an odd way. We assign the articles (therefore creating their nodes) and then get the authors to hand them in.
When we release them, we set the "creation date" as the publication date. We made quite a few patches so that articles dated in the future are basically invisible in the home page, RSS feed, searches, etc.

This is ugly. Too ugly.

I am nearly finished developing a Drupal 5.X version of my node_article module, and I am determined to use it without applying ANY patches to Drupal.

Remove 'User' and 'date' from CCK content type

I have several differnet content types built with CCK, such as: articles, events, forums, photos, directory, etc. Whenever a user posts a node, their name and date posted appear under the title of the node. This seems pretty standard and is fine for all content types except Directory. Directory is a list of businesses in my city, and the poster (admin) and date are not important.

How do I remove 'user' and 'post date' from displaying in a teaser list of directory nodes? I've edited the teaser template using contemplate, but can't figure out how to remove these two things.

Views: Argument + gmap = list of node titles

I tried to make a view of nodes using gmap, but when I try to pass an argument into the url of the view, the gmap view turns into a list view.

For example, when I use $arg/map as the url in the view, and browse to www.mysite.com/badrobots/map, I see a list of all the bad robots.

But when I use badrobots/map, and browse to www.mysite.com/badrobots/map, I see a map of all the bad robots.
