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

moving an installation to another directory

I have a working installation of Drupal 4.4.2 using clean URLs in the directory ~foo1/bar1/drupal-4.4.2/ which corresponds to http://subdomain.domain1.com/drupal-4.4.2/

This is however a temporary location. When I copy the files (cp -r * and cp .htaccess) to another directory on the same server: ~foo1/bar2/ (i.e. another directory + no drupal-4.4.2) which corresponds to http://domain2.com/

Both installations use the same database.

I deleted a feed before removing it's block ...

I actually deleted two feeds before removing their corresponding blocks that I had in my site's sidebar.

This caused two mysql errors appearing at the top of every page on my site.

I tried to go back and delete the blocks but they did't show up in my administer >> configuration >> blocks panel so I couldn't delete them. (Little empty blocks were still showing up on my sidebare as well.)

I also tried using phpMyAdmin to delete any entries for those blocks from the "blocks" table but there weren't any.

Latest Comments module - formatting question

I am using the latest comments module as described here: http://drupal.org/node/view/4587#comment-11369

You can see the output in the "latest comments" block here: www.ceslit.org

If you look at the source of the webpage you will see that there are P tags around the comment title, which makes the block take up more room and doesn't look so nice. I want to remove them but I can't figure out where they are coming from. Can anyone help...?

How to seperate Forum topics?

Hi everyone,

I can't seem to create the seperator between Forum Topics a la the Drupal site, which has 'General', 'Support', 'Development' etc seperators. When I create the Forum vocabulary the root terms each become forum topics in their own right that can be posted to! Tried creating several Forum vocabularies but only the first one is picked up. Any advice appreciated.

Marcus.

Display information about the author with all his stories

Hi all ;)

I'm planning to use drupal for a journal like site. I have accomplished most of my todos, but this one gives my some headaches.

I need to display information about the author right in the full view of a story. I don't need it for pages, blog entries and so on, just for stories.

This should look like it does over at Boxes and Arrow. Look at the bottom of an article, and you will see a little 'box' with some text about the author.
