Post installation

I’ve just installed drupal,

I looked at the admin logs and I see bunch of red error messages such as security warning, files fail to open, etc… I mean, what do I do? It dosn't give instructions on what I need to do to rectify it.

The only instruction that one of the error messages give is “Couldn't write .htaccess file. Please create a .htaccess file…”, what a lie! I looked and there was a .htaccess with the necessary code.

So are these red error messages won’t go away till I rectify them, or are they just there?

I’ve just installed drupal, so I’m new to it, does it have a back up system like how phpbb has it in its admin panel?

How can I back up?

Also what’s the best way to back up for maximum peace of mind incase of any loss.

Thanks

PS. How can I check via drupal admin which version I am using? I want to know so I am sure when I upgrade versions.

Hi--

I just installed a fresh Drupal 4.7.3 and noticed a bug: none of the collaseable content can expand (ie on the settings page, all of the content is collapsed and doesn't appear to be expandable).

This bug happened when I installed the friendselectric theme as well. All of the collapsed content is visible when viewing w/o stylesheets.

Has anyone else experienced this? Is there an easy solution?

Thanks,
Patrick

Hello,
since tonight I've noticed that all my content is not accessible anymore to me as the admin user or as a guest, despite the fact that I've changed nothing at all since the last time I've checked and everything was working fine (this morning)

Every content pages now show:

"
Access denied
You are not authorized to access this page.
"

And in listing as in front page and blog listing I get n/a instead of a content teaser, as in:

Yo!

Is there an elegant-ish way to move around which form elements appear in what order? I have a client who really wants users to be able to enter the path alias right under the node title for forums, blog posts, etc. I was hoping not to have to make a module and use node_form_alter() and all that. It seems like 9 times out of 10 someone has already thought of something.

Also, in the same vein, they want the path alias field expanded by default. Any ideas?

Thanks!

Hi,

I can't get the Aggregator_module to work. It's enabled. Adding categories is no problem, but when clicking on "Add feed" the right URL loads but the only thing actually happening on the page is that the infotext from the default list view disappears. There is no place or form where I actually can add a feed.

I tried to disable and re-enable the aggregator_module, as well as throwing it away and putting a new copy of it in the module directory and then ran the update.php script.
