Post installation

I've seen a number of snippets that will display the upcoming event.

I'd like to show users what they have missed out on (and possibly modify the event to include a link to the gallery page for that event and maybe a feedback form for comments on the event, etc.)

How would I go about displaying the Previous/Past (x) events?

Any help or direction would be greatly appreciated!

Thank you,

I've got problem: in my blocks admin page (admin/block/), I coul check the boxes or change which area they go, however when I click update, nothing changes (I have to manually change the db entries myself). I tried flushing (with a backup of coures) the blocks table in my drupal database to let it refil everything (which it did), but that changed nothing (I had some stuff left over from a theme that didnt' work...)

Help?

I've done it now. I've really screwed something up. I don't even know if I can explain this correctly but I need help! I just went public with my site and the forums are completely messed up!

It all started when on a forum post if someone clicked on the "Posted in *whatever*" link, it would go to a funky page and I'd get this error:

Ok, I am a total newbie and really appreciate any help you guys can offer. I am determined to use drupal on my site :)

I will try and explain as best I can with my drupal knowledge thus far.

I created a block called 'Reviews'. It came up on the right sidebar after activation, just like I wanted. Now, when I create pages, they show on the homepage, which is good, but I also want to be able to list the pages that contain reviews within this review block.

Is there some box I need to check or something to make my page be listed in this new block?

I'm not the big expert on running crons, but when I run the cron at my website by putting the domain url into the browser:

http://www.domain.com/cron.php

It doesn't seem to actually work. So I logged directly into the server (it's my server) as root and tried to run it in a terminal. Whether I ran it as root or changed permissions or whatever it returned these results (this is from running it in a terminal):

/var/www/web6/web/cron.php: line 1: ?php: No such file or directory
/var/www/web6/web/cron.php: line 2: //: is a directory
/var/www/web6/web/cron.php: line 4: /bin: is a directory
/var/www/web6/web/cron.php: line 5: bin: command not found
/var/www/web6/web/cron.php: line 6: syntax error near unexpected token `('
/var/www/web6/web/cron.php: line 6: ` * Handles incoming requests to fire off regularly-scheduled tasks (cron jobs).'

It doesn't appear to be doing anything or finding stuff that it's expecting. What am I doing wrong?

Here's what the body of the cron.php looks like (if the site let's me post it):

// $Id: cron.php,v 1.28 2005-01-09 09:22:38 dries Exp $

/**
* @file
* Handles incoming requests to fire off regularly-scheduled tasks (cron jobs).
*/

include_once 'includes/bootstrap.inc';
include_once 'includes/common.inc' ;

// If not in 'safe mode', increase the maximum execution time:
if (!ini_get('safe_mode')) {
set_time_limit(240);

I tried the following experiment on my own test Drupal site to check on how quotes behave.

1. Typing directly into Drupal textarea box: I thought to myself, "Let's see how Drupal handles quotes."
2. Pasting from MS Word into textarea box: I thought to myself, “Let’s see how Drupal handles quotes.”

I'm putting this inside "code" tags so you can see what I typed in:

3. Typing the character entity references straight into Drupal box: I thought to myself, “Let’s see how Drupal handles quotes.”
