Post installation

How do I internationalize custom block contents... Can I access gettext funcions from within a block (a PHP block)?

Hi,
I want to create a some manuals/books using the book/page function of Drupal. I'd like to set up my pages so that each book or each chapter could be printed out as one group. For example, I might have a book with the following pages:

Sample Book Title

1. Chapter or Topic One

1.a Subtopic Child Page
1.b Subtopic Child Page
1.c Subtopic Child Page

Hi guys,m Im a newbie so please be understanding!

I have just installed Drupal and have it in its default mode at present. Its quite a powerful tool and I won't need the majority of its features, so the documentation is quite overwhelming....

All I want to do is create dynamic front page content for an existing site. I want the administrator of the site to be able to add stories to the front page by logging in, creating the article and hitting submit. This article then appears on the front page, and the previous one is shunted down the list.

Hi,

I would need an additional field of informations (2 actually) that people would need to fill in during sign up and that must be researchable by other members.

Namely one is location (area, not a precise address) and I would like users to be able to search for users in a certain location.

Is that possible and how ?

Thanks in advance

Hi,

I have noticed there are "po" folders under most modules and would like to know whether they are read from there by Drupal (under Drupam/modules/XXXmodule/po) or whether I need to "load" them from the localization page, adding strings (or any other way).

Thanks !

I would like to know what would be the easiest way to implement a block listing company news. The block needs to display the date and title of the news node. And the title must be click able to the full node.

I have looked at the Simplenews and Taxonomy Block modules. The one that almost doest what I want is Taxonomy Block. All I need to add is the date.

What module is the best the implement this or should I use flexinode with custom php block.

Example of what I am looking for (HOOPS NEWS) http://www.mbr.org/
