Post installation

Hi all,
I've a two level vocabulary say

- A
-- B
-- C
-- D
- E
-- F

etc ... How do I get all first level terms from this vocabulary (A and E in my example) ?

I need an associative array (tid => "term name") to use it in a multichoice form.

My goal is to add a blog list type field to flexinode, so to display a list of all blogs associated with a
vocabulary.

thanks

I overrided the user profiles on a site that I'm working on, and I was wanting to know how to make a link that allowed others to see the buddies on another user's list?

Thanks.

I got frustrated with the default menu and the primary, secondary links, so I created the links manually.

However, I set some of the pages to be able to be viewed by people without accounts, and they can see that menu. How do I make the menu disappear for users not logged in?

I've seen automatic refresh scripts for certain modules, but is there one that will work for all pages? Or could I just put a regular refresh script in the page.tpl.php file?

Thanks in advance.

I am evaluating Drupal for a website that is in the design phase. I have a few questions about the appropriate use of Druapl for content and having content that is dynamic and "context aware" for all blocks on a page. Let me provide an example:

Let's say the site is about travel. Content is broken up by State and City. I have several types of content for each State and City.
- Overview and Basic Information about the State or City (Standard HTML pages for each city.)
- Hotels in each City
- Restaurants in each City
- Points of Interest in each City
- Transportation in each City
- Etc.

Then under each of those, such as Restaurants, there would be a list of restaurants. Choosing a specific restaurant would take the user to a page about the restaurant, which provides basic information, review, google map and user reviews / comments.

Hotels would act in a similar manner, but for the content type of Hotels.

Okay, so my questions - please be patient with my "Newbie-ness". Also, I am not looking for free consulting here, just want to know if I'm barking up the right tree.

1) Can Drupal handle the different types of content pages and the related navigation?
2) Are there tools for importing the data into the CMS system?
3) Context Aware Content:

Let's say on the a city page for "San Francisco" I have blocks that list "Hotels on Sale This Weekend" and another block with "Car Rental Sales". Let's say both content types are provided via a web service or syndication from a host, where I need only provide the "City".

Normally new stories appear at the top of the default Drupal front page and then are pushed down as new stories arrive. What I would like to do, as the administrator is to "promote" an old story that has become topical again, as the latest story.

I can make it sticky at the top of the lists, I can write a PHP+SQL function to publish a specific node on a page at the top. But that is not what I want to do.
