Post installation

I'm very new to Drupal, so please forgive me if this is an obvious question.

I'm using the improved import module for some rss feeds, which works great, but I can't figure out how to compile a page with the feeds grouped by source or taxonomy, or even to get the page diplaying all the feeds linked from the top navigation.

Is such a thing possible?

I can enter and post to my drupal site with w.bloggar, but the blog entries have no name and thus appear to be anonymous entries. Any suggestions?

I have succesfully installed Drupal and looked for a way of my users can establish a blog that can be read by designated and limited viewers.

I couldn't find how to enable that option (if exists).

Does anybody know how to do this?

thanks.

Hi,

I'm using Drupal 4.3.0 and I've got a java applet I'd like to put on a page for people to use. The only way that I've found to be able to put it on the page and still have drupal stripping tags is to allow the <applet> and <param> tags but this means that other people will be able to use them as well.

Is there some way I can exclude a static page from the filter and have the rest of the pages filtered?

drupal 4.3.2, RH 7.x

Within my vocabulary I have a term which has the id of 9. I want to show anything associated with this term and it's child terms

---- Current BOD Book (term id 9)
------ section 1 (term id 10)
------ section 2 (term id 11)
------ section 3 (term id 13)
------ section 4 (term id 14)
------ section 4 (term id 12)
etc. to section 20

[ordering of id's is nonsequential because of adding and editing]

I have each section related to all other sections and to the parent term.

I have a database where the user information is all in a flat file (thankfully). I want to bring as much information as possible into Drupal. How? What does each column do in the table or link to? How can I bring in the password? Right now they are stupidly stored as plain text.

My worst issue..... The profile module is a packed field and this one really has me baffled.

Thank you!
