How to make a list of contacts ?

Hello,

On my drupal website I have on a page a static table filled with informations about some contacts : names, addresses... I would like to do the same in a better way...

Each contact shouldn't be a node ? Then, which kind of node that would be fine for that ? And how to display them in a table ?

Category Module - Create hierarchical structure directly when adding a node

Hi,
I like the category module, and it's default stuff works fine. I have no problems creating a main structure (and a corresponding menu).

But I have an issue in my special case:
My structure is dynamic, so users or moderators should be able to add (not delete) nodes (storys), which belong to newly created substructures of the main structure.
Lets say there is a structure like

Electronics
-TV
--Plasma
-DVD
--Player
--Recorder

Accessories
-this
-that

Top Level (Electronics, Accessories) are containers atm.
Under the lowest categories, one will be able to find several corresponding articles (story nodes) which will not be shown in the navigation menu.
So now, if someone want's to add an article for, let's say, LCD TVs, he should be able to do the following workflow:

1)create new story node
2)enter relevant info (title, body)
3)choose in which existent category this will go (Electronics-TV)
4)create a new subcategory (LCD), under which the node will be structured then.

So the new structure (and menu) would look like above, just with LCD added in the correct place:

Electronics
-TV
--Plasma
--LCD

..and the new article goes under "LCD", which will be shown in the main window of the site, when one clicks "LCD".

I DO NOT GET THIS, are there possibilities?? It does not work for me creating the whole structure before the articles have been written.

Using Vote up/down module and giving voting authority to anonymous

Hi;

I am using vote up/down module and works fine. The only problem that I have is the following:

I would like to give voting power to anonymous, in order to do that I went to "access control" and enable "use up_down vote" for anonymous which is under vote_up_down module. The problem is, it is not working, does anyone know what could be the problem?

Thanks,

digg like menu

Hi;

I am using vote up/down module and I have set it up in a way which every node which has more than certain number of points will be promoted to the front page.

I have another page which is called "All posts". For going to the "All posts" page the user needs to click on it in the menu on the left side.

Now I am trying to make it like the first page of digg.com website. As you can see in the website on the top, there are two links as following:

Popular stories
Upcoming stories
