Post installation

Problem:
Need to disable teasers for specific posts (less than 10% of the time).

Solution:
After some reading on the forums here and playing with drupal found a simple solution. Since I don't use PHP Input content (yet!) I just switch them to 'Full HTML' and wrap everything in <p></p> tags.

Anyone see any problems with this. Call it my aversion to programming but I'm always looking for the easy solution.

ide liek to find out how i could make my nodes display on the front page from oldest first to newest at the bottom

Hello all I downloaded a new theme and installed it, and I am working with this type of manger for the first time... I know very little about this stuff...

I would like to know how to get rid of DRUPAL up and the top left corner of my site.. I see the source code but where is the file located that has that in it... I searched the forums, but I imagen this is a NOOB question but hey ...

Okay, in my user profiles I'm trying to link all story content created by a user by pasting the following in my user_profile.tpl.php file:

print l ('read story entries for ' .$user->name, 'true_stories/'. $user->user);

The output works correctly until $user->user, which prints something like /john+smith

whenever a user name has a space. How do I make the extra space an underscore "_" instead of of a plus"+"???

I am trying to restrict access to my photos with the simple_access and acidfree modules. This seems to work fine, but when I use the mass import feature, I do not have an option to set the access group (group of users that I would like to give access to the photos). On the tab for uploading single images, such an option is available and works fine. I also tried setting the access group for the album I am importing into, but the mass import seems to ignore the album setting and so all the pictures are still uploaded with no access groups assigned meaning they are public by default.

I am having users inputting location information into a cck page using the location module. I am using views as my search and would like to add a proximity search to this. The problem I am having is that it doesn't matter what zip code I put in, it still returns all created nodes, nowhere near the submitted zip code...

Any ideas?
