"Banners" without URLs?

Using the banner module, is it possible to have a "banner" without a url? I would like banners to display on certain pages according to category. However, on those category pages that don't have an active promotion, I would still like to fill the space with a default image without a URL. Initially, I thought I could use the banner module to manage all these banners, but it still seems to generate links when no url has been entered. Any thoughts?

Thanks,
Christine

Block location

I notice when I add blocks they add to the left or right side bar. How can I put a block into the middle column? I am using the chameleon theme.

For instance, when I added an RSS feed, it only gives me the option to put it on the left or right sidebar but not in the middle of the page.

story node access control by role?

I need to post story nodes for access only by a specific role. I don't see a setting to control this. It seems like an obvious requirement.

Banner not appearing on page

Hi everyone,

I'm a beginner with drupal and with php in general. I'm trying to install banners on my page.tpl.php file. I know that the module is functioning properly since I can get the banner to appear in a block. However, I can't get it to appear outside of a block.

Attempt 1: (as recommended in the documentation)

<div id="banner"><?php return banner_display(1); ?></div>

Problem: The presentation stops displaying at the second div. Nothing more appears.

Help Needed - complex taxonomy for comparison shopping site

Hi Druplers,

I am in the process of migrating http://www.camera-prices.com comparison shopping site to drupal 4.7. I installed flexinode to handle pages that are for product categories and products as well. So far I created a content_type called, shop_categories then added a content_type_item, named it Digital Cameras, then set the parent_item to Primary links (see it: http://www.camera-prices.com/drupal). Saying that, here is what I am wanting to do.

Let's say I have one category, Digital Cameras, and under that there are a list of products (see for example: Digital Cameras). On the left side (under Shopping Options), those links would become tags in drupal - and these tags are different for each shop_category, so category Camcorders would have different tags. Any idea how I should structure this?

Ok, that is one thing, next, Imagine having some tags under the "compare digital cameras" heading and above "Showing 1 to 15 of 741 matches". These tags would be related to news, articles, reviews, etc on "digital cameras". So, on the taxonomy, should I make articles, news, reviews, etc additional categories?

The same goes for an individual product. Let's click on the first camera, http://www.camera-prices.com/canon-powershot-a620-digital-camera-p-24346...

Remove all unnecessary Drupal code

I'm using Drupal mainly for registration and authentication purposes. The client-side scripts need to make a large number of small data requests to the server, and each request is served by a Drupal module, to make sure that the user is logged in and that he is who he says he is.
