Post installation

In a new Drupal installation (4.7.3) we've gone about creating a few forums, and are trying to post new posts to some of them. We use "Post New Forum Topic" when viewing the list of posts in a forum for doing this, incidentally. Every post we add appears in "Recent Posts" just fine, but while viewing index.php?q=forum shows the list of forums we've created, they all show 0 posts, 0 new, and viewing the individual forum we tried to post to shows no entries.

Any ideas what's going on?

Thanks!

Total noob to Drupal and Category. I have resisted using Drupal in the past because I cannot create heirarchies of content and control access to the individual sections. I was recently told I can do it if I use the Category module, so I am trying, please help.

I am trying to create a simple hierarchial with user based access control.

Basically I wanted to first layout the heirarchy

Watering Hole - Public
Watering Hole - Private

iBasically I want to display full nodes when doing a search. no highlighting of keywords, or anything. just list the full nodes as if it were a view. I looked at the code on how to show teasers in search results

Which is this:

function foundation_search_item($item, $type)
{
    if (module_hook($type, 'search_item'))
    {
        $output = module_invoke($type, 'search_item', $item);
    }
    else
    {
        $info = array();
        if ($item['type']) $info[] = $item['type'];
        if ($item['user']) $info[] = $item['user'];
        if ($item['date']) $info[] = format_date($item['date'], 'small');
        if (is_array($item['extra'])) $info = array_merge($info, $item['extra']);

        $output  = '<div class="search-result">';
        $output .= '<dt class="title">';
        $output .= '<a href="/'.check_url($item['link']).'">';
        $output .= check_plain($item['title']).'</a>';
        $output .= '</dt><dd>';
        $output .= '<p class="search-info">'.implode(' - ', $info).'</p>';
        $output .= '<p>'.$item['snippet'].'</p>';
        $output .= '</dd>';
        $output .= '</div>';
    }
    return $output;
}

I can almost see how this is laid out in my search results, but am not sure of where to go to get the full node to show up. I also don't know how this would affect the fact that I used templates for a number of content types.

My CiviCRM suddenly disappeared after I enabled the CiviNode module (but I'm not sure that this caused it - I was also playing around with user permissions but that was mostly to get CiviCRM to work at all). The module isn't listen on the admin/modules page, the CiviCRM menu item is gone as are all associated blocks. And going directly to the /civicrm link results in page not found. All the files are still on the server (as before).

I installed Drupal 4.7 on my website a few days ago and i've lost my password, however when I try to recieve a new password via the request new password function, i try to login using the one-time login link and i get an access denied error. Any clue what to do?

Hi all,

Just a question, I'm not sure what theme engine means... Is it different from themes , as in theme engines generate themes ?

Which is better to install...a theme engine or just single themes that we like? If theme engines generate themes from a specific preloaded database, I think that's cool.

I hope this doesnt come across as entirely dumb.. (sorry)

Thanks for any quick input.
