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

article title and user name on url

I tried to search this but failed, and i know its possible because i have seen it.

I want an article's url to read.... domain.com/.../this_is_the_title
so its more seo friendly...

and i also want the user profile to be domain.com/user/name instead of domain.com/user/4

or somehting like that... can anyone please tell me how to do that...

where is the read-more class defined?

I would like to make the read-more links bold, but I can't find where its defined. I don't want to make all links bold, just the read-more links.

What file contains the properties?

Running content through html filter

Hi,

I have a custom module that stores extra content in a separate table. When I display the page I want to run the content from the table through the html filter the same way as body content is, so line breaks work etc. Right now I'm just collecting the input through a form, and displaying it again through module_view. Can I run the content through the filter in that display part of the module?

Thanks!

Highlight new events in the Upcoming Events block

Hi,

I'm wondering how I might go about hacking the Event Modules "upcoming events" block to highlight new events. For example, if an event was added within the last 5 days, have a little "new" added to the Title in the list. This is similar to the way that in the "recent posts" on a Drupal site, you see a red 'new' next to those items that have been added.

Can anyone suggest the code for figuring out the date comparison? I think I can manage the rest, but I'm not sure how to calculate whether an event is less than 5 days old.

Thanks,
G

Node / Content Access Control by User/Group

Hi,

I've got a new install. I am setting up Roles, and trying to figure out how to organize content. One of our requirements is to be able to secure content by Role. I haven't seen an obvious way to pull up a node, edit it, and limit access to the node by Role or User. Can someone point me to the proper place to do this or suggest a method?

Thanks,

Jeff

Paragraphs/line breaks not recognised

I'm using andreas09 as the basis for my theme but have noticed that line spaces for a new paragraphs aren't being converted automatically, even when full html is set for the input format.

An example can be seen at http://technohippy.org.uk/waterfalls where the line starting with We've grouped should be a new paragraph and not just a new line.

I can't see anything int he CSS which might do this (in fact I don't even know if it's possible) so am a bit stumped.

Any suggestions folks?
