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

Nodes not saving!

Hi all:

Suddenly nodes are no longer saving. Although it says "the page was updated", it is in fact not saving. The changes are not taking.

Looking in the database directly, it appears the changes did not take.

This is not a database-wide issue, as I was able to successfully change settings (e.g. access control settings) and those changes seemed to take.

I upgraded to the latest 4.7 CVS and still no luck. Disabled cache, didn't do the trick.

Any ideas?

Thanks in advance.

Download module options?

Hi All,

Just wondering what modules people were using for downloads? So far I've looked at filestore2, disknode and download, but none of them are 100% what I am after (currently download is the closest). I'm coming from an Xoops background which has some rather feature rich download modules. Are there download modules for Drupal that give you things like leech protection, license options for each download, file mirroring, or being able to link to files at other sites (so you don't have to host all the files yourself)?

tinymce

I need tinymce for 4.7 is there any such thing?

Confusion: Editing a PHPTemplate template to display content

I seem to be having some trouble searching the forums, so I apologize if this is a redundant question, but here are the things I'm trying to accomplish:

1. HOME PAGE - I would like my homepage to display in one layout, with four content areas, below a header: the top-left contains a "story" (I guess) that will essentially be static text (it's the "welcome to my organization's site" text); the top-right contains a styled block with the menu and login; the bottom-left contains only the recent blog entries; and the bottom-right contains another block with a list of upcoming events (whether in a module or using taxonomy terms; that's not the important thing).

2. SUBORDINATE PAGE - For example, titled "For Nonprofits", this page should have only two sections: on the left, a "story" containing the content targeted at nonprofits, and on the right a block containing links to the top-level taxonomy terms (I guess) for that audience (i.e., a list of items of interest). All pages on the site will have this two-column layout except the homepage, though the blocks may differ. (The menu with login block, etc., will appear on the right above the "related terms" block.)

3. SUB-SUBORDINATE PAGE - If the user clicks on one of the terms on the "For Nonprofits" page, "Tax" for example, I'd like a page where the content is the information on the left and a list of related terms in a block on the right.

Auto linebreaks and paragraphs in "Full HTML"

Philosophical qusetion here.... why do we call it "full html" when Drupal is automatically putting in BR and P tags for me?

It's causing headaches because as far as I can tell there's no way to put in "pure" HTML (i.e. tags where I want, and not where Drupal thinks I want them).

In this particular case, I'm trying to put some JavaScript into the text editor, save the content out as Full HTML (because Filtered isn't going to allow all the formatting I need) and have it work.

Trouble sorting with Table Manager Module

I've installed the table manager module 4.6.0 into Drupal 4.6.5 and everything seems to work fine. I can add tables and display them. Yet for some reason the sorting feature doesn't work. The entries stay in the order in which I add them. I've tried sorting numerical columns and word columns. Nothing seems to work. I searched the support forums and it seems nobody has had the same problem I've had. Should I delete the module and database tables and try again? Any help or guidance would really be appreciated.
