Drupal 2.6.3 - how to create an Employee Directory?

Hey folks,

New user, great product! I evaluated several wikis before I settled on Drupal to create my intranet, and I believe this is exactly what I needed to construct a corporate intranet site which collates several types of content into one place (corporate templates, how-to tutorial web pages, department-centric areas with their own main page and sub sections, etc.).

simple event listing page script

Hi there,

I was curious if anyone has a simple event listing php script to render pages similar to craigslist.org before I go start hacking one myself.

Thanks

Creating a taxonomy browser

Hello,

I have created a hieararchical vocabulary for Organic Groups on my site, with two levels of hierarchy (category and subcategory). Something like:

Category 2
- Subcategory 4
- Subcategory 5
Category 3
- Subcategory 6
- Subcategory 7

Taxonomy Dhtml

I have Taxonomy dhtml installed and running happily... I have setup the index.php?q=taxonomy_dhtml page to display just one catagory. However I would like to have 3 such pages all showing the nice tree menu for 3 seperate vocablaries.

How can I do this?? I spent an hour this afternoon looking at the code for the module and trying to work out what function does what and therefore how to call one from within a page... But got nowhere at all...

Any help please??

A Big How-TO Post - Help Needed

Hi!
I just started moving one of my sites over to Drupal from Postnuke. Since I have gone for a manual transfer of articles (over 600 in all!) I find myself with limited time :( I have following queries and any help you guys can give would be greatly appreciated.

1. Theme: After reading quite a few articles, I have the basics of theme design in drupal clear to me. Most specifically, the article that indicated how to get a different look on frontpage than the rest of the site was most beneficial. There are, nevertheless, certain questions:
a) How can I use PHPTemplate to get the following:
- Top 5 stories with excerpts
- Top 3-5 headlines (without excerpts) from certain categories. Fr instance, 5 headlines from a category called News and another from a category called Features.
- Include a image block that, when clicked, leads to an article instead of an image gallery.

2. Menu: How can I get the menu to include the taxonomy terms automatically? Or do I have to manually enter these terms.

3. URL alias: How does url aliasing work? Does it write into .htaccess or does drupal handle it internally? Also, is there a way to get urls like site.com/category/subcategory/article-name.html without having to add an alias manually?

4. Does there exist a module like Encylopedia? The idea is as follows:
a. The major terms, names of politicians mostly, need to have their own pages. Ideally listed in an alphabetic order.

Anonymous Users Frontpage

I am simply trying to allow anonymous users to see the same content on the frontpage as logged in users, but either I get the standard drupal page or "page not found."

I have installed the frontpage module, played with many of the settings, but still get the original drupal page on the frontpage for unregistered users. I have tried re-directs through the settings, placing new html on the frontpage module, and tried several settings with no luck.

Can someone please give me some help with this.
