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

Mailhandler error message

I have managed to get a cron job and the manual 'retreive' command to fetch messages from my POP box but they are not being posted. I am getting the following error message:

Mailhandler: The e-mail address '@' may not create forum items.

That makes no sense to me. I am sending the messages from my registered email address. Why is it saying the email address '@' ? It is almost as if my email address is being truncated for some reason.

Any suggestions will be gratefully received.

Flexinode and Drupal 4.7

I need some advice on flexinode and drupal 4.7. I'm currently using flexinode with 4.6.x for custom content types. I'm using the following kinds of fields:

- Text
- Text Area
- Image

Given how I'm using flexinode, do you think I'll encounter problems migrating to drupal 4.7?

I've read that certain types of fields have encountered problems (e.g. Dropdown menus). I'm not using flexinode for drop down menus, because I'm already using taxonomy. Will there be an issue with the taxonomy menus?

Suppress regions from showing on specific pages

Hi,

Does anyone know how I should go about to suppress certain regions from showing on certain pages?

I am using my own derived version of the Bluemarine theme (which is still pretty unmodified). Now, I want to suppress the left and right sidebars from showing on various pages and in various sections of the site.

How to do that? I cannot figure this out.

Thanks,

Thomas

Create a node page

Hi,

Sorry for asking what is probably a very basic question, but after three days struggling with this, I have still not figured out how to do create a regular main section page corresponding to a given menu node.

In the main menu of my site, I have created several menu items to what I plan to be main sections of the site. Currently, when one of these links is pressed, a page is displayed with a message saying that the page does not exist. Instead, what I want to happen is that the user gets to a full-fledged and beautiful index type of page for the section filled with lots of PHP interactive content with an overview of related resources, links, news items, articles, forums, etc.

How would I go about to create such a page and its content in Drupal´s overall architecture?

For instance, suppose I have one menu item with the title "Mexico" and the node path "regions/mexico"; this arrangement should then bring the user to a Mexico section page. In what directory would I put the php file for the corresponding page and what would its file name need to be? Or if the page content is to be stored in database, where and how do I create that page content?

I have tried to use the Create content>Page but I cannot figure out how to get the created page published at the node in question, and anyway what I want to have is a robust main site section page, not just a mere user created page look.

Nice Menus - Internet Explorer

I can't get Nice Menus to work in Internet Explorer. I have tried all the hacks I can find including what is mentioned here http://drupal.org/node/43899. I even set up a vanilla 4.7 site and replicated the demo site ( http://cvs.logrus.com/jakeg/) going as far as to download the exact CSS and JS files used.

Any help getting this to work would be greatly appreciated.

Can Form API support a dynamic formid?

Hi there. Here's what I'd like to do:

I have a very simple form consisting of 1 select box and 1 submit button. I would like to have a list of these forms (i.e., multiple forms) on a single page where the list is dynamically generated from my database. It appears, however, that drupal_get_form() wants a fixed $form_id and there is no way to make it dynamic (e.g., by adding a special callback/pre-fix parameter).
