Linking Taxonomy Terms with Nods

I want to have custom pages for each of my taxonomy parent and child terms. I was told the best way to do this wa to create a node, and then just link the term to that node. How do I linkl terms to the nodes?

Google Sitemap giving error Table 'database.gsitemap' doesn't exist.

Hi,

After installing gsitemap module I am getting following error:
Table 'database.gsitemap' doesn't exist

I have checked my database and there is no table with name "gsitemap".
It means it would not have been there initially.
Is it suppossed to be created when I install the module?
Is it a bug?

I have installed correct version of gsitemap (i.e. 4.6.0).

Please help.

How to add 'example.com' in the path of the action attribute?

I still could not solve my problem with using Drupal with a SSL proxy - see http://drupal.org/node/59996.

Now I'm looking for a way to add 'example.com' to the URL when I submit a page, so that

https://ssl.webpack.de/example.com/node/101/edit

is used instead of

https://ssl.webpack.de/node/101/edit

Any ideas?

How can I simulate a Chat Area and provide a simple breadcrumb?

Ok, I am dealing with a customer requirement and do not have a lot of room on this. They want a "chat" or discussion area that is similar to an existing site. It is a very simple chat area with no forums, just one main area where people can post topics and reply to them. It is also for an audience that is not very computer literate. I have been working with the forum module (since it is the obvious choice), but I am going to get some push back on the fact that you have to create a forum that people have to go into, rather than having a single default chat area.

My solution was to just use stories. I could tag their stories with a default taxonomy term and then use taxonomy to provide a paged list of topics. The only problem is that I need to remove the teasers, but I think I can figure that out. Here is my big problem: How can I provide a decent breadcrumb? For example, If a user enters a topic (that is a story for Drupal's purposes) they can add their comment. Now, how can I provide a link back to the list of forum topics (the taxonomy term for Drupal's purpose) that also takes paging into account? If they navigate to the second page and then read a topic and add a comment, they are going to be frustrated if they cannot get to the list of topics they are on, for example if they are paging through the topics.

So to summarize the issues I currently have:
1. Does anyone have a great way to remove teasers? The only thing I've come up with is to hack the module code and insert extremely small teasers as an option and provide a one line teaser. Could I create a teaser of 0?

Inline module and private files

Hi,

I have set file downloads to private (because I want to have access control of some kind) and have installed inline.module and node_files.module.

With that I wrote a custom node module called 'article' (as contrib article module didn't work the way I liked) and using node_files module to upload an exact amount of files (in this case 2 files - a cover screenshot and the actual PDF). All modules work seamlessly together, except when I use private files setting in Drupal 4.7 RC 3.

Taxonomy navigation / Category Module (+views) / Image Module

What I want to achieve is

Have the follow sections of my site (With navigation links on the menu)

News (page)
Articles (story)
Image Gallery
Blog
Weblinks

Each will have its sub category/taxonomys.

What I have tried so far...

Image Module

I like the way the Image Module displays images, in a tiled fashion. Only thing lacking is that I would prefer images to be displayed in file name or id order.

Category Module

Seems to be great, but much more than what I need.
It has broken the image modules image displaying - I think this is the way it replaces the taxonomy.
This would'nt be so bad but I cannot recreate image gallery display format using the view module, I am stuck with the list views rather than grid thumbnails.
Even disabling the category module does not allow me to assign images to taxonomy any more (a bug ?)

I have been thinking about what I require and that is:

1. Create a link to a section on the menu to a entry page to news and articles (like images). Is this a simply taxonomy view ?

2. Then be able to browse the sub sections (again similar to images). I have the taxonomy_content module, unfortunatly I have not been able to try it as the category module has broken my taxonomy, would this provide a block of links to sub sections ?
If not, I think coding a snippet block should not be too hard.

3. I want images to be displayed
