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

drupal file naming scheme

Hi,
I have a hosting company that only uses php5 on files ending in .php5, otherwise it uses the default php4. My problem is I need curl and dom support but the domxml extension isn't available for php4. I don't know the code very well, but I'm pretty certain drupal uses a file naming scheme that relies on extensions like *.tpl.php or *.module etc, which would break if I simply changed extensions to *.php5 without altering the source.
Can anyone suggest a search and replace operation I could run on the source code to make the necessary changes?
Thanks,
malder.

CivicSpace mail issues (registration email not sent)

I have found similar posts on Drupal 4.7 mail problems, but I am afraid I am running around in circles!! Here is what I have:

CivicSpace 0.8.5
Apache2triad
Yahoo mail
Yahoo web hosting

I have successfully installed CivicSpace and everything is working just as I want... but the MAIL!! I am obviously doing something wrong so I hope someone can help. I will try and explain what I have done so far:

I tried registering as a test
Registration goes through (I can see the new user in my admin panel).
Test User receives message that "login info will be sent to the address"
Test user never receives login info
Test user requests new password
Recieves message "unable to send mail, contact admin"

I setup a yahoo pop account for outbound mail and changed the php.ini file with the pop settings. ( I think I may have screwed this up!!)

I do have a backup file of the original php.ini file if I need to replace the new one.

PLEASE....ANYONE......I NEED HELP! :)

Is there a step by step guide that will tell me how to get this running so I can have actual registered users?

BTW- I tried PHPMAILER... I must be stupid, because I uploaded it into my INCLUDES file?? I also tried uploading it to my MODULES file thinking it would show there?? NOPE!

I also tried LOGINTOBOGGAN...again... I am a stupidhead!! I HATE TAR files!! I downloaded it using winzip and tried extracting it, but it dosen't show the files like a regular zip file?? I know..I must be frustrating the hell out of whoever is reading this.... please be patient with me!!!!!

Many failed login attempts

I have now upgraded my drupal sites to 4.7 and everything works fine, but in my log it apperas several faild login messages from time to time. This are five to ten attemts from different users and they usualy coma at the same time. can this be some form of hacking?

Thanks.

Turning off TinyMCE for the excerpt module

Hiya everyone,

Happy Monday and all that, I have a problem that is definetly worthy of a Monday.
I want to be able to use TinyMCE on by default in my body area, but not for the teaser using the Excerpt module. The objective after all is said and done is to make it so when someone adds a teaser they don't even think about adding images to it. (or just not able to at all) The problem is that excerpt relies on the settings of the body area in an edit section. Anyone have any ideas?

Thanks a million,
Jonny Stopchick

Customising Teaser Title

I've created a custom content type for URLs and want to have the title when listing nodes (such as with taxonomy or on the front page) to link to the site rather than to the node itself. Is this possible through the theming mechanism and how can it be done?

Organize content into projects similar to how content are organized into groups?

I would like multiple groups to be able to work on the same project "fu." Project "fu" would contain book content, presentation content, data, tasks, a worklog, and other node content.

Any thoughts? Can I do this using CCK or the project or another module?
