Post installation

Hi,

I've set up Drupal and everything works fine. Now I installed flash filter (unpacked it in the modules directory), activated the upload module and the flash_filter module.

- I can upload files.
- I set the input format to full HTML
- I inserted [flash:nameoffile.swf] and [flash:pathtofile\nameoffile.swf] just to be sure.

And no flash is being displayed. The documentation for the module is rather non existent :)

Can anyone tell me what I am doing wrong or point me in the right direction?

TIA
jt

Greetings.

While setting up our website, I've come across a dilemma I can't solve, and after giving it some thought I've decided to post it here in case some of you could help me.

One of the links in my Primary Menu is named "Members". Here lies the problem; the idea behind such link is that, once you click on it, you are supposed to get a list of all the registered Drupal users. When you click on one of the users, you will get the user's curriculum vitae, which was previously written by the user using a content type called "curriculum", which has yet to be implemented.

I don't see this as impossible in Drupal at all, but it's a hard task for someone like me, who isn't much experienced in Drupal yet.

The biggest problems I'm facing in order to do this are:

1. How would I get the list of all members? The approach I've thought of involves querying the "users" table at the database... but how could I get the real name of the user? When the user registers, he never supplies his real name, and I would need it in order to carry on this task. Is there any users module that could help me with this?

2. How can I make the user's real name point to the curriculum he introduced? The content will have a node number. My idea is to hardcode the href attribute and make it point to the node number of the user's curriculum. Is there a way to check what nodes the user has created?

I see that drupal doesn't know the difference between published date and creation date... when i create an article and don't publish it, so i can edit the article later and when it's finished i publish it, i see that drupal shows the creation date, not the published date. Is there a way to change it so the items on the frontpage show their published date and not creation date or isn't there a different field in the DB for that functionality? If so, is there a module that can help me out?

Hi,

How and where do I set up the maximum number of published items displayend in the central area? By default is 3, and I haven't found a way in order to change this. Thanks

I have 4.7.2 installed and the taxonomy_browser module. However, when I go to Administer >> settings >> taxonomy browser, it tells me that "You do not have the node_type_filter module installed. This means that the 'restrict search by content type' option will not be available on the category browser page."

I've searched the modules page but I can't find node_type_filter or anything that looks like this. Can you tell me what it is that I'm supposed to install?

thanks,

A sports team site where people report on matches

When creating a page they enter these categories: persons, teams and clubs (all free tagging)

When they write
"After 5 minutes Inter Explo got send off the field by referee Fire Fox for abusive language"
I want both "Inter Explo" and "Fire Fox" to automatically receive a link to the taxonomy term upon saving the page...

Anything out there working for doing that?

I tried word filter, but it doesn't work as "Fire Fox" is treaded as 2 words...
