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

Node type in URL

I have a 'News' section, which has its own taxonomy menu associated with it. A typical menu URL appears like this: /?q=taxonomy_menu/3/9.

The problem here is when I click the 'Read more' link the URL switches to the default URL: ?q=node/17 .

There is no 'node type' identifier in the latter URL, that will allow me to ask the system to keep the correct menu block for particular node types.

For the menu to work the URL should look like this:?q=flexinode-4/node/17 or in the case of another 'node type' ?q=story/node/17, or something similar with an identifier.

If statement

I'm using the following code to disply a list of nodes for recurring events. The site admin will just publish and unpublish as required.

My question is, should the H3 tag sill output if the query returns no result?

Merge Recent Comments and Live Discussions?

Moveable Type-based blogs often have a "Recent Comments" section which shows only one recent comment from each thread, together with the total number of comments in that thread.

The effect of this design is to guide readers to the most active threads without clogging up the Recent Comments section with a bunch of comments from one thread only.

An example:

List nodes from vocabulary

What snippet would I need to use in order to list all nodes (or first 30) that belong to a specific vocabulary?

i.e. I have a vocabulary called "Buildings" which contains the following list of terms "church, pub, residential" & I want to create a snippet (or use functiionality already there) which automatically lists any node taged with any term in the "buildings" vocabulary.

Hope this makes sense!

Cheers for any tips - i've a feeling this is very simple & i've missed something but cant work it out!!

unexpandable menue

Hi there,

I have a menue item X here (visible under /admin/menu as a menue item as a child of the global navigation). It points to an existing node and contains to subelements, one created via "add menu item" with parent X and the other as a node of type "page" and a set parent item X.
But...
Item X doesn't expand. It just doesn't care about it subitems. The administration panel shows the small structure as is was intended to be, but within the frontend X doesn't work.

Any hints where I might find the solution?

Thanks,

Translated taxonomy listings

Hi, All

I'm using i18n module to translate taxonomy terms.
The translation process itself works fine, and I can tag nodes with a term from a specified language for that term.

However, I assumed that listings like SITENAME/taxonomy/term/term_id should give all nodes tagged with the term term_id TOGETHER WITH all nodes tagged with the trasnlations of that term.

Am I expecting the right behaviour of such listings or I've assumed something the i18n module was not designed to do?

If I'm wrong, then how do I get such listings?
