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

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.

How do I create a time field that is just the formatting?

I'm working on converting a hard-coded site to Drupal. I have pages that include hours that businesses are open (each business has a page with their information). I'm trying to create fields for when business open and close (e.g. Monday, open at 9:00 am and close at 6:00 pm, Tuesday...).

So what I'm really looking for is a way to be sure that everyone is inputting their times in the same format (12 hr with am/pm or 24 hour), or at least that the data is stored in a constistent way to access it from multiple locations.

How do I change | to ::

Hello,

I would like to change the category separator for page titles from | to ::

eg: this current page is Submit forum topic | drupal.org

I would like to change all pages to use :: so it will be Submit forum topic :: drupal.org

What file do I need to modify to achieve this?
