Post installation

I have Drupal 4.7 running on Fedora 4, but I'm running into a problem with rewriting URLs. Because Apache performance can be affected by .htaccess directives, I put all the .htaccess sample information in the httpd.conf file (actually a vhost).

But it only works properly when I comment out the "RewriteRule" line below. If not commented out, I get the full Drupal frame, header and left and right sides, but no stories - instead it says "Page not found". (As mentioned elsewhere in the forums, the / before index.php is necessary so Apache doesn't return an error.)

I am trying to figure out how I can place one block only after every first forum topic.

Using my current theme (Marvin_2k) there is the text "login or register to post comments" located in that position when I am not logged in - is there some way I could add the block in with that text, but have it show up for everyone?

Any other ideas?

So I'm having the strangest problem. Everything worked well until I did a virgin install of Drupal.

When I install Drupal, everything works well. I go to the main page (localhost), set up my first account, sign in, change my password. Everything works great. But when I try to submit a new piece of content, I get a blank page!

I've upped my memory limit in php.ini to 24, but I'm still have issues. further, after the submission takes me to the main page, I can't go to the main page anymore.

Any idea how to fix this? I'm lost.

Hi,
is there an access control setting to allow registered visitors to edit any content..... (permissions are set so that anything edited goes into moderation) ?

Thanks,

Hi,

I'm new to Drupal so i'm just getting used the different parts. I'm installing the Bookmarks module but I don't understand this part:

If you need
to have a 'bookmark this page' link somewhere in your theme, use the
user/$user->uid/bookmarks/add/quick URL target for the link (where
$user->uid is the user identifier).

Could anyone point out what i need to add to a href tag to make this link work?

Thanks for any help,
Justin.

Does anybody know how to change the URL http://mysite.com/user/<username> to http://mysite.com/<username> ? I tried to create a new URL alias manually as well as using the "pathauto" module. But I did not succeed. Or is it just a Apache webserver setting?

Thank you for taking your time!
