Newbie Q: Best way to add menu item linking to static page

Sorry if I'm missing something obvious here but what is the best method of adding a static page (e.g. Contact Us) to the navigation menu? Is there a way of adding certain pages automatically to a menu? Also is it possible to emit the "Submitted by..." on these pages?

I had hoped to use Drupal for basic websites which would have normally been static but I think it's possibly a little too advanced for that.

I'm using Drupal 4.6.2 but I'm also evaluating CivicSpace 0.8.1.3.

Many thanks!

Edit links ($links) in blog post - as well as terms / categories

Hi,

In my taxonomy I defined a structure like:

  • hot items
    • news
    • column
    • blog
  • webdesign
  • graphic design
  • et cetera

When posting a hot blog item about webdesign, I assign the post to the terms:

  • blog
  • webdesign

When I look at the result, there's a line at the bottom of the page:
Posted in: blog | webdesign | Marc's blog | Add new comment »

How do I get search to work? Followed all instructions from handbook ...

Hi,

I set up Drupal 4.6 and it works perfectly except for the search. I set up a cron job which accesses cron.php via lynx every 10 minutes and in the admin interface it says that the site has been indexed. But I never get any search results. Then I tried and installed the Poormanscron module just to make sure (found it via http://drupal.org/node/16771) but it still didn't work. In the log I found the following entry which appears after I have searched for java* (which should give me plenty of results):

display a location on a different page via theme_location

<?$node = node_load(array("nid" => "1"));
// print the node's body
print $node->body; ?>

tried using

<?$location = theme_location(array("oid" => "1"));
// print thelocation
print $location->street; ?>

but that does nt work

How do I add images to Shazamgallery

I am very happy to see a project like Shazamgallery that will add some much needed features to the image.module. I have been trying to apply it to my 4.6.3 installation, however I'm not sure I understand how to use it. I can create a new content type 'gallery', but once a 'gallery' is created how do I add images to it?

Thanks,
Mikkel
