Post installation

I have drupal 4.7.3 and using the custom profile.

I have created a custom block that I want visible only on the user page. I have tried using user/* but it doesn't show. When I go to my user account the url looks like: http://cribfax.com/?q=user/1&time=1258035839

Is this messing it up or is it the user_profile.tpl file?

Thanks,

Kris

I'm using Drupal 4.7 and have been unable to get the docbook export module working. It seems as though the Tidy PHP plugin API has changed somewhat since the module was written, and the docbook module seems to not work with the new API. In particular, the tidy_setopt and tidy_getopt functions are not available -- the documentation says they're deprecated but offers no insight on replicating the functionality.

Hi,

I have this requirement to link different places in my site to one same external location.
e.g. pointing to an address like "www.othersite.com/abc?xx=yy"

My question is, can I make an alias of this address and have all my links pointing to that alias instead of hard coding the address on every one of my links?

Also can I pass parameters on alias?

Thank you for helping

anyone know what this means? and how I can sort it out?

thanks

I run a small non-profit in Vermont, Young Writers Project Inc., that is dedicated to helping kids write better. I am nearing the completion of a rebuild of the site in Drupal and want to create a forum that is visible to and useable by only a small group of students who judge all the submissions sent into the project. Obviously I don't want others using or viewing the judges' votes or comments. (I have a vBulletin forum for general student use. Since it's all set up and is working well I am going to keep that running for a while as a linked location; vBulletin seems to give me the protections I need to keep the forum safe for teenagers.)

How can I set up a Drupal forum for only the selected group of judges? I have searched and searched and can't find any place that allows me to make forum block visible only to a certain class of users. I understand that in access control I can limit who can use the forum, but I need the added ability of controling the visibility of the forum. One idea I had was to just make the menu item visible only to judges but accomplishing that has also stumped me.

Thanks in advance. I am a relative newbie who is slowly getting the hang of this software and am very appreciative to all those who've been helping me along.

I realize this is prob not the forum to ask this, but hoping somebody can point me in the right direction.

I've installed Drupal 4.7 on my local Linux Fedora server. All is well, but I never set up an email server. I've installed qmail, and it appears to be running. I have ZoneEdit handling my dynamic DNS and have created an MX record of mail.reswebdev.com. Whenever I try and use mail.reswebdev.com as an SMTP server I get a complaint that I can access it - permission denied.
