Weight order in custom types

I have created a new content type that consists of mostly text area fields. I have about 15 fields that I would like to use, and have associated a weight against them. In both flexinote and CCK, the weight does not entirely function the way I would expect. If I use between -4 and 3, then the topics stay in the right order. However, if I use -6 as a weight for one of my fields, then the TITLE field (which I don't set!) appears BELOW my (-6) custom field.

Comment Spam Protection for 4.6

I'm reviving an old site that is in 4.6. Don't have time to upgrade in short term.

Anybody know of comment spam protection for 4.6

Seems the Captcha module requires 4.7

Thanks,

Content Creation

Hello all,

new to Drupal but very familiar with CMS capabilities. Recently got everything instaleld, using taxonomy_menu for navigation running 4.7.4. What I am uncertain of at the moment is how (after creating specific content types) is content written once and shared across multiple sections of a site? Reusing content? I have searched but no clear explanations. If someone can post me to a handbook section or other helpful tips I would appreciate it.

Thanks

How can I capture PHP Errors and display in the logs?

I have some php code that sometimes errors out. The messages in the logs are very generic and don't help me troubleshoot the problems. I would like to put a more readable and useful error message in the logs. Are there any examples, code snippets, or articles of how I can capture an error condition in the php script and substitute my own message in the logs or pass some variables to the logs?

Thank you,

News aggregator questions

I have some questions.

1. Is there a way of making links to items gathered by the News Aggregator load in a separate window? I want to avoid leaving the website to be taken to the news source. If so, where could one change settings?

2. I have news items under different categories, from different sources.
Is it possible to create several pages, each with a different News category, instead of them being on the one "News aggregator" page? If so, how exactly could that be done.

Thanks

Get rid of showing the title

I am wondering if anyone can tell me how to eliminate the title from a page. I want the front page the content that I put into it, but I do not want the title to display. I have looked into the theme I am using (friendselectric) and I see where it prints, but I don't know how to elimiate the title.

The line that prints it in the theme is....

print phptemplate_wrap_content($content)

Can anyone shed any light on how to go about this?

Thanks ....
