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

[Beginner] make a page

Dear,

I have just installed the Drupal to make a simple lab pape.
After configurating the drupal, I can't link to our lab pages to the menu.
(Please visit http://www.kriss.re.kr/~lsjun/drupal/ )

I want to link my HTML files in my PC to the web menu, but I can't find a proper web folder.
How to link the page?

(I am not web programmer.)

Thank you in advance.

Integrating the MySite module into a tabbed menu (created in Views)

I'm currently trying to integrate agentrickard's awesome new MySite module into a self-contained user section such as this.

12h clock

I want to change the Drupal internal time clock from 24h to 12h, I checked in "admin/settings/date settings" but no dice. Anyone know where that infomation is set?

migrating content from development to production server

I'm relatively new to using Drupal in a production environment and I'm looking for tips on the "best practices" for how to publish new content on a production server (new pages or sets of pages).

When I first started using Drupal, I thought that I'd be able to do all of this on the production server, but this makes me nervous and there are some things that seem to make this impossible:

  • When you add a new piece of content the menu item pointing to that content seems to be unaware of the published status of the content it is pointing to (I use the Category module, so menu items are automatically created) This means that users will see a menu item, but when they follow the link they will be taken to a permission denied page because the content is not yet published. Menu items referring to unpublished content should not be visible to users who don't have access to view the unpublished content. [perhaps this should be a patch for the menu system]

Anyway, I am using three servers, which is what I'm traditionally used to:

  • development server - this is where I build the pages, make neccesary adjustments to my theme and such, build blocks, assign taxonomy, etc.
  • staging server - used for testing the migration. production server gets backed up here, and I test my migration scripts, which consists of sql commands and moving neccesary files and theme changes.

How to display the current user

I'd like to display the current Drupal user in a block on the site. Any ideas on how to do this?

Validation error on Blocks admin page

I've got pretty clean install and when ever I try to enable a block I get the following error:

Validation error, please try again. If this error persists, please contact the site administrator.

This happens with all blocks and on all themes I've tried.

Suggestions?
