Drupal is up and running but how do I ...?

multilingual problem: how to make menu entries point to the correct node translation?

hello everybody
i'm building a multilingual drupal powered website and although i have little php and css knowledge i managed it pretty well so far. i use the internationalization, flexiblock modules.

i have a problem i've been trying to fix the past two days, but no luck so far. the multilingual aspect of the site works fine, only i really do not know how to make the entries in a menu point to the correct translation of a node. for example, when somebody chooses the dutch language and clicks on the 'about' link in the menu, i want the dutch 'about' node to be seen, instead of the english node. my current configuration is this: when i create a page, i make the english translation and a dutch translation. they both get a *different* node number, one for each translation. so, how can i make the menu entry point (for example 'about') to the correct translation? the problem is i can only give *one* url in the menu settings, so the menu entry always points to *one* translation, the english one in my case.

i thought enabling different tables for each language could fix this (install.txt), but i can't do it. the internationalization module documentation is mentioning files i can't locate (like conf.php). when i try to include the code in files like settings.php of other .inc files i get nothing but parsing errors. i don't know how to handle this... :\

this site is a good example, i want it to work like this way: http://www.osiwa.org/

Download-Site with Drupal

I want to create a Download-Site with Drupal. I have many files with over 2000 MB.

I don't want to use Drupal's private download method and the upload and attachment module is not good for my intend.

I want to upload all files via FTP and then put a link like this form: /download.php?id=12345 (is it possible? How?)

Which modules do I need for secure downloads? (no direct accessible path)

How to get Flexinode content into Image gallery

500 server error - subdomain, blogspot, drupal installation

1st of all, I'm sure this is some htaccess issue.

2md of all - Does anyone know of a thread or post that covers subdomain installations/multiple drupal installations i.e. with a number of different databases with same codebase? There are so many of them out there... is there like a definitive one?

Back to my first issue:

I installed Drupal in the root directory:

block displayed on all nodes belonging to certain taxonomy term

(i've searched the forums but didnt find an answer)

i want to have one or more blocks displayed only in all the nodes which belong to a certain taxonomy term.
in other words, i need a custom block as a sort of menu for every node indexed in a certain taxonomy term.

Additional text fields in image module?

Hi,

Can anybody tell me how I can add a few text input fields into the image module and then display them in the image gallery?
Currently there is "description", but I want to have "Title","date"(Date of the artwork), "medium" etc.

And I guess that I need to edit the Database to allow for the insertion of these fields, but I don't know where to look for the relevant functions apart from image.module.

Or should I be using flexinode wth image?

Any help appreciated.

Alex.
