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

I am getting this error along with others when trying to submit a reply in forums. I have tried removing new mods, but nothing is working.

Can any help?

Thanks,

Disabling main frontpage content

I've successfully installed 4.7.3 and a number of modules already, including Views, and have a challenge:

I'd like the frontpage of my site to ONLY display various View blocks in the sidebars and content area. I have no interest in displaying the main default frontpage of newest content posts. (I'm more interested in simply having my Banner Group 1 block at the top of the screen and my various custom View blocks beneath it.)

Search Calendar based on two content types

I have setup a node to allow printing of calendars (as suggested in http://drupal.org/node/81361). Within my calendar I have 4 types of event node. These are:

  • Course Event
  • Stage 1 Event
  • Stage 2 Event
  • Stage 3 Event

The main part of my node is:

mulit-site configuration: sharing database or not

I've got a drupal 4.7, let's call it www.mysite.com site up and running and now want to add a sub domain sub.mysite.com

Done some reading from here http://drupal.org/node/43816 and it seems straight forward to set up multiple (sub) domains running on the same installed code-base.

From what I can undestand, there is two basic options.

(1) sub.mysite.com share all data base tables with the original www.mysite.com making it an alias site. This option still makes it possible to have custom themes and modules for the two domains.

(2) sub.mysite.com uses it's own set of data base tables (eiter a separate database or same database but different table prefix). This option makes the content of sub.mysite.com complete separated from www.mysite.com

Now to my question: If all I want is for sub.mysite.com to have a different set of blocks enabled, do I have to go for option (2)?

Ahh, there might be a third option.

(3) I found out that each block has a "Page specific visibility settings" option. Maybe the simplest is to add PHP code returning TRUE or FALSE depending on whether or not the node "belongs" to the www.mysite.com or sub.mysite.com domain.

The disadvantage to the above method is that a node can be referenced by two URLs, e.g., http://www.mysite.com/?q=node/33 and http://sub.mysite.com/?q=node/33 refer to the same node. I personaly don't like ambiguity soo this makes me thinking option (2) is a better choise.

Category module on edit causes a huge amount of node_load queries

As the topic says, when I edit or add while the category module is on, I get a huge amount of node_load functions activated. This slows the system down too much. Is there anyway to bypass this so as to speed up editing and adding. Im using drupal 4.7.

Best method to add a 'Phone' field to the contact form?

My client needs a 'Phone' field on the site-wide contact form. Is there a simple way — using the forms API or something — to do this? Or do I have to reinvent the wheel with an additional module?
