Post installation

Hiyas all,

Newbie to Drupal, possibly biting off more than I can chew (so far)... I've downloaded the Views module in tar.gz, and I've untarred it. It has more than the usual "just add the module to the modules directory" - but has no INSTALL.txt file that explains what the root directory files are for...

I looked at the documentation online, but it doesn't have install instructions there. Am I missing something obvious?

I'm trying to figure out what to do with:

-rw-r--r-- 1 domain1029750 vweb 26783 Mar 17 13:05 views_data.inc
-rw-r--r-- 1 domain1029750 vweb 34785 Mar 3 05:46 views_form.inc
-rw-r--r-- 1 domain1029750 vweb 9756 Mar 21 01:05 views.install
-rw-r--r-- 1 domain1029750 vweb 47138 Mar 21 01:05 views.module
-rw-r--r-- 1 domain1029750 vweb 2380 Feb 1 17:58 views.mysql
-rw-r--r-- 1 domain1029750 vweb 17719 Mar 19 01:05 views_query.inc
-rw-r--r-- 1 domain1029750 vweb 59433 Mar 21 01:05 views_ui.module

Those :p (if anything)

I'm assuming I can just copy these into modules/

-rw-r--r-- 1 domain1029750 vweb 3430 Mar 17 21:44 views_book.inc
-rw-r--r-- 1 domain1029750 vweb 2317 Mar 17 21:44 views_comment.inc
-rw-r--r-- 1 domain1029750 vweb 0 Mar 17 21:44 views_forum.inc
-rw-r--r-- 1 domain1029750 vweb 18738 Mar 19 19:31 views_node.inc
-rw-r--r-- 1 domain1029750 vweb 291 Mar 17 21:44 views_profile.inc
-rw-r--r-- 1 domain1029750 vweb 306 Mar 17 21:44 views_statistics.inc

In my pre-drupal site, most of the important pages had a php extension. Now, in drupal, those same pages are nodes with clean urls. For example:

old site: http://www.rosslaird.info/books.php
drupal site: http://www.rosslaird.info/books

I am organizing articles on www.drupalecommerce.com. Each book page has 2 categories associated with it: topic (e.g. modules), and type (e.g. review).

How do I get the links to appear for the categories an article is in?

For example, on merlin of chaos site at http://www.assignblame.com/articles, it has
President Swallows Bitter Pill
In Politics, U.S. (next line)
If I click Politics I get taken to all articles in that category.

So the paging module isn't working for me... i did the usual copying of the folder into modules and turned it on under adminsiter->modules.

the instructions aren't clear.

how am i actually supposed to use it?!? I've put in the

tags where I want them but the page breaks don't show.

I posted this to my site, but I'm one of the only techies so I figured that I might get some positive suggestions from people on the drupal.org forums.

Hello people who check out the IMC site on regular basis.
This is the resident tech Robbt and I want to share a little bit about the plans and obstacles I've experienced developing this site and look for some feedback, much of it may be too technical without some understanding of Drupal.org and CSS but I'm sharing it regardless.

Let me just break down this issues we are currently experiencing as a site that need to be addressed, I attempted to install the project module but it failed to initialize properly.

The basic SITE.

We are running Drupal 4.7beta6, this is development code. It isn't bugfree and in fact some of the problems people have experienced in the site are due to this, such as the dissapearing links on the right and top. Where did subscribe go ? I could update to the latest CVS version and resolve some of this but I've decided to wait for the next release although updating is an option to be considered.

The way Drupal works is you have your CORE drupal code, which makes up the basis for much of the site. And then you have modules, which add features to the site.

Drupal core does such things as providing categories for content, and setting up the login and user roles, and provide the framework for theming/laying out the site.

Hi to all! :)

I'm developing web sites on drupal 4.7 and I'm having some troubles.

Is it possible to call a page that intersects more then one taxonomy?

Thanks in advance.
