Post installation

I have my site set up so practically no content (except some basic nodes) is available to anonymous users. Registered (and verified) users can view others' user profiles as well as see a list of all users in CiviCRM. My question is, should I be worried about spam at all? Is there any way evil robots will be able to access registration-required parts of my site?

I found Sepeck's instructions on upgrading to 4.6.4 a lot easier to understand than the text on this page. (Sigh, why can't instructions be simpler?)

However, I am still mystified by 'First, check to see no database updates'. Where should I check for this?

To sum up, is the following all it takes to upgrade to 4.6.4 for those who don't want to upgrade by patching?

Hi there my blog is all up and running, after i apply a few themes and when i click on the configure button i get this message on top on the page always:

warning: mkdir(files): Permission denied in /home/kayz/public_html/blog/includes/file.inc on line 86.

and this is on line 86 for file.inc:

if (($mode & FILE_CREATE_DIRECTORY) && @mkdir($directory, 0760)) {

If somebody could show me what i need to do thanks! Also im running the latest Drupal 4.6.4

Thanks!

I've seen a jump menu for all taxonomy terms somewhere on here, but I was wondering if anyone knew of a way to create a jump, or dropdown menu listing all terms in a specific vocabulary. I don't mean a rollover type dropdown, but the kind where you would click to see all the terms, then hit "submit" or "go" to go to that term. Thank you.

I have a few questions, one of which I addressed in the topic.

I am starting a tech news website, and I would like to have icons of the taxomony the news article is published under to appear next to the article... is there any easy way to do this?

Also, I would like for each user to have their own icon ( and for it to appear near their name when making a post), how can this be set up?

I used to use Civicspace/Drupal before the events.module became flexinode based. Since then, it has always taken me to a calendar-style view of events. How am I able to configure event.module to display a regular text-node style listing (a chronological order of upcoming events) instead of the new calendar view? Is there a way to have both and allow the user to switch between the text-style listing and calendar style listing?
