Post installation

I need to get the name of an attached file to output in a block.

I know that this can be done using node_load but don't know how to go about it, could someone please provide some direction.

Thanks in advance.

i feel retarded because this must be somewhere obvious, but if you look at my site:
www.rocanvillegrads.com you can see that i have a introduction. i want the whole thing to show up on the front page, not have to click on the link to read it all.

please help, and sorry for being a noob.

Hi,

I really like the nice menus, but I was wondering if it also possible to expand (as with classical drupal menus) the active menu. I just think this gives a better overview of where you are.

An example, if you have a menu like
-a
-b
b.1
b.2
b.3
-c
c.1
c.2

Then the nice menu shows just a, b and c but if you hover over it it shows the submenu if there are any. I would like that if b.2 is the current page to show something like
-a
-b
b.1
b.2
b.3
-c

Hi all :)

Just wanted to know this: how can I manage to fire up the indexing of my site when someone adds new content, like comments or pages or posts to blogs or anything else, so that my search engine will always be immediately up-to-date, without waiting for cron?

And by the way, how do I configure cron (I'm running Ubuntu Dapper Drake), and control the time interval by which the indexing of my site takes place?

Thanx.

Hey guys,

I'm attempting to create some various node types for content addition such as Book Reviews and Links to other sites. I see some overlapping functionality between flexinode and CCK. Is there one that I should use over the other? Are they indeed as similar as I think, or am I not looking at them correctly?

Any explanation of the differences between to two modules would be fantastic.

Thanks!

I'm using pathauto and URL aliases for all nodes I can think of. To avoid any possible duplicate content penalty, would anyone see a problem with putting the following in my robots.txt file?

User-agent: *
Disallow: node?

Would this prevent searchbots from crawling any part of the site?
