I need to sort blog entries by user groups. What's the best method?
Project description:
We're sending students overseas, and while they are away we want to provide them with a means to journal their experiences. There's going to be seven groups of students going to seven different continents. I'm planning on using the built in blog module, however I need a method of associating blog posts based on what group the students belong to. For example:
There will be a page devoted to ITALY and I want to show teasers of the most recent blogs of students who are part of the ITALY group.
Here's what I was thinking so far:
Taxonomy - I could create some terms and assign them to the blog content type. The downfall is that students would have to assign the correct student group to each of their blog entries. This is not my first choice.
Profile Module - I could create a new field using the profile module. Essentially the students would select the student group that they belonged to under their profile. Then "maybe" I could use this information to help sort the blogs. I'm not sure if this will work or not.
Unknown solution - Ideally I would like a method of assigning a group to the user's profile so that the students couldn't change what group they belonged to and screw-up the blog sorting.
What are your thoughts? Does anyone have a solution?
I have installed the internationalization module i18n. Now I want to have multilingual weblinks. The problem is, that when I create a translation for a weblink, Drupal tells me: "A weblink "" using that link already exists".
Well, that's the idea! I want to use the same url in both English and Dutch translations of the weblink. The only things that have to be translated are the description, etc.
Is there anybody who can tell me what the problem is? Or are weblinks not meant to be translated?
In my new comments, a "2" appears as its own line before the body the first time I read a comment. This is obviously some sort of "new" indicator that's not connecting at some point. I'd like to either connect it or drop it, but I can't find the code in comment./module. Can anyone point me the right way? Thanks!
