contacts / address book

By bernart on

I am looking for a simple address book style contact list module. One where I can enter name, address, phone number and may be email address.

I tried using flexinode to create one but it does not feel ideal. One has to cope with the required "title" fields as opposed to last name, first name and the "form" ends up looking messy because every input text area includes the input formats "html, php, etc"

I have not even looked at formating issues re displaying the lists of contacts yet.

Block access, how to get it?

By smilodon on

Block access by role patch
http://drupal.org/node/18018

I dont know if this works with 4.6.3.
I dont know how to install this "patch"...
I have a remote pc (webhost). with FTP and PhpMyAdmin access.
I cant run those patching programs, because my host denies executing *exe. files.

Create a module that can provide a variable for the theme

By vfilby on

Hi,

I want to have a module that let's me insert some extra html code right after the header. I figure I will need to somehow make a variable available to the theme and then add something like this:

<body>
<? 
if( isset( $mymodule_variable ) ) {
  print $mymodule_variable;
}
?>

Any thoughts on this or suggestions of other ways to attack the problem?

How do I prevent specific Forums from appearing within the "New forum topics" block?

By Sam308 on

Does anyone know how to prevent specific Forums or Forum Containers from appearing within the "New forum topics" block?

Situation:

I have created a forum section for called "User created websites" for users to post a link to their website.

The problem I have is that I do not want these specific postings within this "User created websites" forum to show up with all other posting in the "New forum topics" block.

Is there any way to filter out or prevent posting within this forum or forum container from being displayed within the "New forum topics" block?

Presenting custom content to users that have created a certain node type

By jasonwhat on

I'd like to have some helpful links appear to users that have created a custom flexinode type. There seem to be two ways to accomplish this, one would be having some function that adds the user to a new role if they create the node type, the other would be to create a bit of php that looks to see if the current user owns any nodes of that type and then return the content. Any tips on this?
