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

Anonymous cannot see more than the front page

I run 4.7 with tac-lite. Anybody that is logged in can view all the stories on the front page with next, previous, first and last, but the anonymous users can only see the first page with 10 stories. There are lot more than 10 stories that the anonymous users should be able to see. The stories are available but through the menu.

There are more than 10 stories, and at the bottom of the page it shows Page 1, 2, 3, next and last. When the anonymous users click on next or last, they get:

Welcome to your new Drupal-powered website. This message will guide you through your first steps with Drupal, and will disappear once you have posted your first piece of content.

The first thing you will need to do is create the first account. This account will have full administration rights and will allow you to configure your website. Once logged in, you can visit the administration section and set up your site's configuration.

Drupal comes with various modules, each of which contains a specific piece of functionality. You should visit the module list and enable those modules which suit your website's needs.

Themes handle the presentation of your website. You can use one of the existing themes, modify them or create your own from scratch.

We suggest you look around the administration section and explore the various options Drupal offers you. For more information, you can refer to the Drupal handbooks online.

Syndication module : undefined function..

Drupal 4.7

Hi !

I installed the synd. module and activated its block.

This is the message I get when I click on its link :

Fatal error: Call to undefined function: form_textfield() in d:\apache2\easyphp1-8\www\drupal-4.7.0\modules\syndication\syndication.module on line 85

Thanks for the help,

Requesting help with Organic Groups home page

I have been commissioned to build a website for a local organization. They have sub-chapters with chapter leaders/administrators, so Drupal (with the Organic Groups module) has fit the bill quite nicely...except for this last issue I can't seem to resolve.

I should point out that I am pretty good with HTML and graphic design, but PHP & SQL are new to me. I am learning them now, but my current skill level is not nearly strong enough to attempt customization of the code. That is why I am asking for your help.

What I am trying to obtain is a customized "home page" for each organic group, much in the way that the "Front-Page" module allows for a customized main page of the site. My goal would be to have the following:

When the user clicks on a group (eg: Mr. Smith's Group) in the "My Groups" block, the group home page (in the main content area) is overridden with an HTML page of my own design. On that page would be links to the different content types avaliable for Mr. Smith's Group -- for example; "Read Mr. Smith's Blog Entries", "View Mr. Smith's Calendar", "Browse Mr. Smith's Discussion Forum", " View Mr. Smith's Gallery", etc. If I could just get the "My Groups" block to link to the custom HTML page, I could hard code these links myself. However, if someone has a better option I would love to learn it.

I did search for this already but I didn't find anything conclusive in the forums. I see that Buy Blue is also working on something that may be similar to this, but I did not see a due date...and my presentation is next week. I would appreciate anyone's help.

Translation questions

I want to start translating Drupal from scratch. I've got pot template from drupal.org, translated a few strings using poEdit and imported .po to drupal. No problem so far.
Then I used admin - locale - export template to get an english pot and updated poEdit with the contents. poEdit says that about 110 strings have been updated and some of them, previously translated by me, were fuzzy.
I'm confused ! What's the correct template, the pot from drupal.org or the template exported from drupal installation and why these two are different ? BTW I'm using 4.7.1.

Many thanks

Overriding node_forms settings using forms api

Hello.

I'm trying to disable [ or rather render invisible ] certain aspects of a node edit form based on user roles.

what i've been doing is switching the content type from either 'fieldset' or 'textfield' etc, to 'value'. this seems to work on a simple test, but i'm wondering if anyone sees pitfalls to this approach.

thank you in advance.

Glossary module problem

I have installed the Glossary module on drupal-4.7.0, and I believe I have configured it properly as per the Readme file.

However, when I add a term and I click on the Glossary link in an article, I go to:

"Glossary: Term vocabulary"

I click on the actual term link and I go to:

"Term vocabulary view" (Only one link here: "view")

I click on the "view" link, and I am back to the "Glossary: Term vocabulary" page...

Am I doing something wrong?
