How to display taxonomy term in event calendar?

By default, the event calendar displays the name of flexinode content type above the teaser in the calendar views. Is there a way to, instead, show the taxonomy term with which that event node has been tagged?

This will be useful because it is easier to have a longish list of terms than to create 2 dozen flexinode event types and have them cluttering the content creation page horribly. Sure, I can use the taxonomy filter control options, but it would be nice to have this.

Add banner to front page

I am just migrating from mambo / joomla, and get stuck on a simple thing (?) for days, I dont know how to put banner on the front page. I have installed front_page.module and banner.module, on bluemarine themes.
Reading through all docs, drupal forum and googling thru the net doesnt seems to make me understand yet
I really appreciate is you people can help

Default page after login

When the user logs in, I want a default page to be shown, not the current page the user is on when they login. And even more, I want different pages to show for different user types.

For example, I'm building a training events database and there are trainers, volunteers, and participants (people registered for training events). I want a different page for each of these "roles".

I imagine I'll have to do a bunch of PHP work to get this to happen. Has it been done before? Can someone show me the way to get started?

Thanks!

association users <-> categories ?

Hi all,

I've the following problem trying to structure a website for an organization.

On one hand, I've a number of users and I've created 4 roles: Exec, staff, council and delegates.
The exec is composed by a president, vice president, threasuer, etc ...
the council is organized as general representatives, area representatives, etc
the staff is composed be an admin, a pubblication officer, etc ...

On the other hand, I've set up a number of categories related to committees
(say cttee1, cttee2, cttee3 ... etc) and anybody on the organization can sit on one
of these committees.

My problem is that I'd like to organize the content on my website in sections like:
- all reports from the presidents
- all reports from the general reps
- all reports regarding cttee1
- all reports from exec
etc ...

I don't want to create a taxonomy term for everything.

Ideally I'd like the system to be able to recognize that the user logged in is the president
(member of the exec and council) and then arrange the new content (say a blog entry) in
relation with the cttee selected.

To some extent, there should be an implicit category associated with every user that organize
the content in different ways. Then the entry blog from the president will show up in:
"all reports from the president", "all reports regarding cttee1", "all reports from the exec", but
without asking to select 4 different categories (the interface can be very confusing...).

Offloading static content

I would like to figure out how to offload static content, such as the stuff in the files and misc directories, to a separate server. Has anyone experimented with something like this? What approaches would you guys suggest? I see two possibilities:

- an http proxy to catch incoming requests and redirect them to the static content server or the drupal server as appropriate
- instructing drupal to send appropriate URIs for the static content so that users request it from the second server
