[Views] Add custom word in views generated taxonomy pages' titles

Hi,
currently the views module generates my taxonomies display. If taxonomy name is "California", it will display this word in the Title and on the page.

What I would like to do, is have a custom word, let's say "Technology" added in front of "California" (and the same for any other listing generated from that view).

How can I do this ? I tried to add stuff in the title field of the view but it didn't work.

Thanks,
Brakkar

Exclude a code from admin pages ?

Hi,
in page.tpl.php, I placed an advertising code, that I want excluded from all /admin/* pages.

Is there a way, from the url, to tell drupal to display this code only if it is not on /admin/* page ?

If yes, how ?

Thanks,
Brakkar

Login not functional on cloned drupal installation

I'm taking over support of a drupal site where the development instance of drupal was on a laptop the other engineer took with him. I'm trying to clone the prodution instance so I can have a development system.

I copied (rsync) the files from the production system to mine. RH8 to SUSE 9.3. I then dumped the mysql database and reloaded using the same user/pw that the original system used. After messing around with ReWrite for a bit, I was able to get the first page working via http://localhost/index.php.

No one knew the admin password so I went it and changed it via instructions found in this forum and attemped to log in. It brought me back to the same home page. Complete with login block. I attempted to log in with a bogus user/pw same thing. In fact most of the links that look like http://localhost/taxonomy/term/7 or http://localhost/node/10910 display exacly the same thing as the first page. It looks like the rewrite is failing silently since if I add the !q= to pages I seem to find some of them, however if I do a ?q=admin/settings, it asks me to login via the user login on the left colum. But that doesn't seem to work. When I do that I get referred to a login of http://localhost/user/login?destination=user%2Flogin and when I translate that to http://localhost/?q=user/login&destination=user%2Flogin, I just get a login page, ad nauseum.

My session table is full of uid=0 entries, session ="messages:a:0:{}"

Alternative for a Relationship module?

I'd like to build a Drupal site with:
- seminars
- teachers
- students

I guess that I could build "teachers" and "students" with a Profile module, and seminars with "CCK", "event" & some attachment modules, but how could I put a link between them so I could know the relationship, for example:

teacher #3 >>> seminar #25, seminar #27
seminar #25 >>> student #1, student #2, student#32
seminar #27 >>> student #2, student #3, student#34

How 2 display contents of page.tpl.php file as front page?

Hello Drupal Nation,

I am a bit fuzzy on placing html and/or code snippets on various pages.

As such, I have the following question:

Our theme, page.tpl.php file contains lay out of our site broken down by categories/vocabulary; image, banners, terms, node listings, etc....

1) How do we print/display the script of our (page.tpl.php file) to act as our home and front page?

2) Is the full page of code, including the header, body, footer of the page.tpl.php file, be used?

Thank u in advance for your time and interest!

Customizing the Way Comments Appear

I have searched and search and searched some more for a way to customize how comments appear below forum posts. Right now my comments appear pretty plain (i.e. http://about.kornika.com/blog/160300).

All the text runs together. What I would like to do is separate each individual comment into its own box--much like Drupal formats its comments.

I tried manipulating the comment.module to no avail.

Anyone with suggestions or a solution would be greatly appreciated!
