Gallery2 embedding once more

Hello all,
Using gallery module I have just embedded gallery2 to my drupal site. All is right from functional point of view with one exception. When you have a look at galery module author's example page:

http://lab.walkah.net/drupalgallery/gallery

embedding is ok. No header (gallery2 logo) on page. Font sizes are correct

Now my result's screenshot:

How do I convert containers to simple forums?

I am running Drupal 4.6.3 and am having some issues with my forums.

When I have created forums on my live site, sometimes Drupal automatically makes them a container and vice versa even though I have specifically selected "add forum" or "add container" -- it does the opposite of what I want it to do. However on my test site, when I create a forum it stays as a forum, and a container as a container. So I have attempted to export the term_data and term_hierarchy tables from my test site and at the same time drop the term_data and term_hierarchy tables from my live site as a work-around to this fiasco. I have then imported the test tables into the live site database and still some of the forums are containers, even though I completely dropped the original tables!

I have asked this question a couple times before without as much description and am trying again just to see if anyone has any pointers or can troubleshoot this. My questions are as follows:

  1. Is there a variable in another table that determines if a term is a forum or a container?
  2. How are containers defined in the database versus tables?
  3. Does anyone else have an idea what's going on, is it some sort of cache issue in the database?

You can see examples of what I am talking about here on my live site's forum versus my test site's forum.

Can a product be a directory instead of a file download?

I am currently playing around with Drupal together with the E-Commerce module, and I wonder if it's possible to sell access to a directory on the webserver instead of just downloadable files? (in the protected directory there will be a index.php that need to be presented inside Drupal in some way)

Acidfree SQL Errors

I don't want to submit an issue on Acidfree until I'm sure that I'm not making some foolish mistake, so I'll ask here first.

I have successfully installed Acidfree 4.6.0 into a working 4.6.0 drupal site. I've applied its patch to the filemanager module, created its mysql tables and verified their existence and proper load, enabled the module, set the accesses, and attempted to use it.

Upon creating a new Acidfree album, it appears in "content" as an "Acidfree media"-type node. Attempting then to add a photo, the photo uploads and appears as a Drupal node, but it is not tied to the Acidfree media album. Upon accessing the photo, the following two SQL errors appear:
---

query: SELECT COUNT(*) FROM acidfree_hierarchy INNER JOIN acidfree ON child = aid WHERE parent =  && class!='album'  in /var/www/localhost/htdocs/includes/database.mysql.inc on line 66.

Search-engine Optimization for the whole URL path

Search-engine Optimization for the whole URL path

Hi.
1)
How can I format/structure all the URL of my pages in order to optimize the search engine ranking?
I'm not too sure how to organize my pages and give them proper URL.
Any clues?

2) What modules can help with search engine optimization?
[PS: Currently I have PathAuto module for this purpose]

Thanks.

Mirroring a Drupal based Web site . . .

I am interested in finding out if anyone has created a publicly accessible mirror of a live Web site based on Drupal and what the steps and/or considerations would be. I believe the biggest issue would be one of database replication and the fact that the mirrors would be uneditable or that the changes made to them would be overwritten, but maybe there are other considerations that I hadn't thought of. Whether the mirror was editable or not and whether it got overwritten or not is not really an issue to me.
