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

tinymce + bbcode

Hello,

I have installed tinymce and bbcode, both are activated and both work quite nicely.

I would like to edit the output of certain tags, for example I would like to edit how the [quote][/quote] tags look once an article is published.

I looked through all the files but I am a little confused. Which files do I need to edit to alter the output of tags? Does anyone have experience with this?

I would really appreciate a little help with this.

Thank you in advance. (apologies if this is the wrong forum section).

YAMS Question

Hi all,

I have 'Yet Another Multi-Site' YAMS question. ;)

I've seen numerous posts about how to get multi-site Drupal working with subdirectories but no response that appears to work. So apologies to those of you that are sick of looking at questions like this because I know I am!

Right, I'm running Drupal 4.7, Apache 1.3.33, PHP 4.3.11, and MySQL 4.0.25. If you need other specs shout.

I would like to setup a single Drupal installation at www.example.com and then have several other subsites accessed by going to www.example.com/subsite1 , www.example.com/subsite2 , etc.

The INSTALL.TXT states:
Sites do not each have to have a different domain. You can use subdomains and subdirectories for Drupal sites also. For example, example.com, sub.example.com, and sub.example.com/site3 can all be defined as independent Drupal sites.

It goes on to say:
When searching for a site configuration (for example www.sub.example.com/site3), Drupal will search for configuration files in the following order, using the first configuration it finds:

sites/www.sub.example.com.site3/settings.php
etc...

From what the INSTALL.TXT says it appears that I should be able to do exactly what I want but I'm finding it difficult to implement.

I've setup:
sites/default/settings.php
sites/www.example.com.subsite1/settings.php

And configured www.example.com.subsite1/settings.php to use the same database and different tables with table prefixes which I've loaded. To prove categorically that I am indeed using www.example.com.subsite1/settings.php I have put in the an invalid user name for authentication to the database so I should get an error when it finally uses that settings.php config.

Stylesheet url base browser inconsistency

Internet Explorer and Opera are reading the background images in my CSS properly, url(bla.gif) is found in the same folder as the stylesheet, but firefox does not load the images, unless you change the path to url(themes/blabla/bla.gif)... wich of course breaks the background images in ie and Opera.

Does anyone know what causes firefox to misread the relative url's?

Privatemsg problem EMERGENCY!

Help! PLEASE

Needing help understanding how to structure data and present it using taxonomy / CCK + Content.

I've been playing with the software, Drupal, for a few months now. I really like the way it works, but I've been having trouble learning how to pull all of it together into something useful. A while back, a friend mentioned a project he'd love to see come around, and I noted it. I've decided to try and build up his project, modified, as a training tool on Drupal. Unfortunately, I think I'm missing some of the core concepts for using this kinda CMS.

Project

The project is for a Role Playing game thing a friend of mine plays. He pretty much just wanted to create a report submission system for administration, and I added a shitton of other stuff on top of it. I did this because I'm a big dumb jerk.

The reports system is, as far as I can tell, a workflow, a publishing queue, and an action. If a user wants permission to know a rumor, or learn a new power, or buy an encrusted finger of pointing +6; they just submit a report requesting said thing to their direct StoryTeller. Not too hard.

Other things I'm hoping to use is to create a private character 'book'. Thataway when a user writes a blog entry (or whatever kind of content) that is a story, they can tag it and automatically add it as an entry into their 'book'. I'd also like to see users able to add things from elsewhere on the site (a news entry on the aggregator, a post off a forum, etc) to their private book.

A way to make a blog *block*? 2 blogs on the same page.

I'm making a personal site. I would like to have a main blog (for my main writing) and a side blog (for quick and short writing) on right side of it.

Is there a way to do this? Also, I would like to see some sites doing the same way.

Thanks for your attention.
