Drupal is up and running but how do I ...?

content type display problem

Hey guys,

I've been using Flexinode to create new content types, but I cant figure out how to get the content to display in other areas of my front page. I've got everything I need for the main content area, but I would like to be able to manage other parts of my front page. I searched the forums, handbooks, etc..., and still feel lost. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

Contact form - Access denied

I have enabled in access control - "access contacts" permission for anonymous users.
I also created a new contact form in Administer > Contact Form.

Anyway, anonymous users can't access that particular form... I have enabled i18n module, so the path to that page is something like http://example.com/en/user/1/contact

cron job on multiple sites

i have several drupal sites running off off the same code base in windows using xampp. i realized that the default cron.php only updates the default site and none of the sub sites. how do i go about setting up a master cron job so that all drupal sites are included? or should i create multiple cron jobs? how should i approach this problem? i will have around 25 drupal sites and they will all need to run cron jobs.

Nodes promoted to front page not appearing on front page

I recently upgraded from 4.6 to 4.7. Everything was working fine for a while but now it seems that when I create new content, even if it is marked as "promoted to front page" it does not appear there.

Could this be a rogue module or something? Please advise.

Fields returning 'n/a' for no apparent reason.

I have an odd problem that has cropped up on my drupal site. The site is a journal site, and for most of my journal articles, I am using a module that I modified from of the book review module (I really just tailored the fields and removed some functionality). This module (jarticle) has worked find from drupal 4.5 through 4.7, though at 4.7, it needed some significant overhaul. However, for a few articles, in the fields where text should appear, instead the reader sees "n/a".

1. It appears to be browser specific. I have no problem on firefox/mac, nor firefox/pc, though a friend says she can't see it on firefox/pc. However, safari on my mac shows the problem.
2. There is no apparent pattern. I have over 200 articles on the site, but so far, I only see 3 with the problem (though I haven't looked at every article). One is node 3, which is practically one of the first articles posted, and has appeared without a problem for over a year. One is node 496, which is a much more recent article. However, it too appeared in both 4.5, 4.6 and 4.7.
3. I ran a repair on the database, no affect.
4. I looked at the raw data itself, also no apparent differences between articles which appear and those that don't.
5. I also tried to re-submit the article, though I did not attempt to recreated it from scratch. Nothing.

I am at a loss as to what to look for.... Any suggestions?

Views - access control

How can I create a view that is visible for administrators only?
All members of the other roles shouldn't be able to see that particular "view" from the Navigation menu.

I tried with "access control" but didn't find the solution.
