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

Subscribed Areas for certain members

I'm using taxonomy, taxonomy_menu, and taxonomy_access to make a subscriber area for certain members. I have a user role for specials users and am using taxonomy_access to restrict access to certain vocabularies. Is this the "right" way to set something up like this in drupal?

Also, my special vocabulary appears in the taxonomy_menu for anonymous users (the pages are empty), but I would like these taxonomy menu items to not appear until the user has the rights to view them. Is this possible? Thanks.

node terms with name of vocab

I have some nodes with terms from 3 or 4 vocabs in them. They are for workshops at an event, so I have vocabs like Skill, Leval, People etc.

I want to show the terms in a list like this:

Skills
a
b
c

Leval
a

People
a
b

rather than the standard flat list..

How should I go about doing this? The nodes are CCK nodes.

Snippet for checking to see if the Drupal database is okay before loading site?

Hi Guys,

Quick question for any mysql Drupal gurus out there...

Sometimes, sites, especially on a shared server go offline for a few minutes..e.g. if the mysql connection might go down.

Is there a php snippet I can add into my index.php that does a quick check on the database connection, before loading the site?

For example:

Add location field to event node -- is this possible?

Hi All,
Is it possible to add a location field to the event content type? I am using Drupal 4.6.5.

Any thoughts or ideas would be appreciated.

Cheers.

How to interface views module and flexynode?

HI there, I'm trying to find a way of using views to navigate in specific field types of my flexynodes...

Example let's say I have a music band site where the bands can add their mp3's and supply info about style etc.

If each mp3 is a node using flexynode, how can I use views module to filter by style for example?

Views seems to filter by userID, taxonomy, etc... But can views filter by fields type that are inside a flexynode?

Thanks

How does Drupal handle image toolkits and image manipulation?

I posted this first looking for info on images and acidfree, but got no responses. I'm really looking for general info on how Drupal uses image toolkits (Imagemagick, GD2, etc). Is it possible to manipulate and edit photos in Drupal? I've searched around and can't find any general info on this, and I don't see any obvious way to do it, but there are references in other posts that seem to imply that its possible.

Can someone give me a little background on this or point me to some useful information on making this work?

Thanks!
