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

Sorting by the Japanese 'alphabet'

I posted this on the Drupal Japan thingy, and imagine has been very kind, but Japanese is not my native language so I thought I would post here too.

If you've ever studied Japanese, this is very simple, but I've heard some wild guesses so I will explain...

English has an alphabet. Each word is divided into letters. In the dictionary, you can look things up in ABC order.

Japanese has a syllabary. Each word is divided into syllables. In the dictionary, you look things up in a, ka, sa, ta order.

Variables won't print

I created a plan old page node and put the following code in it and it won't print the $q->february or the $q->january variables. Why aren't the variables interpolating?

<?php

$results = db_query("SELECT * FROM OMOSLS LIMIT 5");
while ($q = db_fetch_object($results)) {
print "when did alison get so stupid" . $q->february . "$q->january";
}
?>

How do I set different permissions between stories and pages?

Hey everyone,

I am setting up a site in which several people will be posting informational articles. They are letting these articles be read and used for free but would like people to register in order to read them. (I am setting these as "Stories" in Drupal.)

The issue is that there are other pages that should be always available whether registered or not (such as bios, contact us, and the home page and I am setting these as "Pages" in Drupal).

is it possible to erase all paths created by path auto???

We are getting some problems with pathauto and category module upgrade, I would like to test of it works without pathauto paths... Is it possible to erase only the aliases that were created by pathauto??

If not is the only solution deleting them one by one?? Maybe it would be faster directly in the db??

Thanks,
patchak

Blank Pages on create content

I've searched the threads and can find no solution. I have a fresh install of 4.7.2. I've uploaded the e-commerce module and see everything in place. On clicking a link from the "create content" page, the site returns a blank page (no source code). Sometimes this even happens on clicking create new page. Although clearing the browser cache seems to fix that for a while.

Audio Uploads - User vs. Admin

Does anyone know if there's a way to have two sorts of Audio modules running on one drupal installation? What I mean is i'd like to have one system where I upload audio files as the site owner(with no size limitations), but a seperate system where users get to upload remixes and are capped off at say 10 megs and their uploads go to a certain place on the site?
