Permission problem: profile hidden fields

Hi all,

I've a number of fields defined in the profile module. I'd like to have a role
that can modify all these (hidden and pubblic) fields, but without permission to
change passwords, add/remove permissions (roles), add/remove users, or anything
else that sits under "account settings".

Is this possible ? How can I do it ?

thanks :)

Clean Urls (mod_rewrite is enabled)

I tried enabling clean urls, but when I do this happens:

Say I'm here:

www.mysite.com/admin/settings

When I try to click to go somewhere else it does this:

http://www.thechillcenter.com/admin/admin/modules

and it keeps me on the current pate. It keeps adding /2nd level folder here/ over and over again.

Any ideas? drupal is running in my public_html/ folder, so I didn't modify the base.

Aggregator - How do I...

In follow-up to something I posted here, I'm hoping somebody could tell me if there's a drupal way to do this type of layout and aggregation:

The front page is nicely laid out and contains excerpts (i.e. just the first few lines; a photo/album cover and the title) from what's presented on the detail page. The content itself (stories, images, mp3 links) is aggregated from other sources.

For example:

Is there a way to achieve this same type of functionality and layout? Can the aggregator module do this? Some type of theme that has comes close how the front page is laid out?

Assuming this can be done, I'd like to do a similar thing where, below each title, they're very clear about where the content is coming from and provide direct links back to the original source. That's very important to me - I'd only want to aggregate content that has been made available by the author (via creative commons or something like that). Instead of having people create an account, and create content directly from my site, I'd rather aggregate the content and drive traffic, attention, etc. back to the authors own site.

[Support Request: form_alter] How do you eliminate one input field from a form?

Ok, so, I've been beating my head into the Forms API documentation for a bit. And I understand the basic structure of how to *create* forms in the new 4.7 Forms API. I'm a bit confused, however, about how to *alter* existing forms.

Particularly, I'm trying to alter the gmap module form so that it doesn't ask people to enter in their street address information in the user>edit>location form. Normally, I would do this using a hack (see the commented lines below):

<?php
$form = array(1 => array());
//the hack begins here -- I'm commenting this next line out, because I don't want people to feel pressured to put in their street address ajwwong
//$form[0]['location'] = location_form(array('street', 'city', 'province', 'postal_code', 'country'), (isset($user->location) && !_location_is_empty($user->location)) ? location_api2form($user->location) : array('country' => variable_get('location_default_country', 'us')));
// and I'm adding this line below -- the new "hacked" line -- without the "street" information field.
$form[0]['location'] = location_form(array('city', 'province', 'postal_code', 'country'), (isset($user->location) && !_location_is_empty($user->location)) ? location_api2form($user->location) : array('country' => variable_get('location_default_country', 'us')));
$form[0]['location']['#type'] = 'fieldset';
$form[0]['location']['#title'] = t('Location');

bad promoted pages links on front page

Hi,

I have a problem with pages promoted to the front page on my Drupal site.
The promoted pages resumes appears on the front page but the links to get to the full page are bad.
They are refered as http://inm-test.qc.ca/{link} instead of the real reference http://inm-test.qc.ca/?q=node/33
Has anyone seen that problem and how can it be solved?

Thanks
