Simple Drupal Question...

Given $node->type is it possible to programatically find the module name?

For example, from $node I can find the type - say 'storylink'. The module that defines this type is 'vote_storylink()'.

Is it possible to find this association programatically?

Thanks!

url_alias table structure: a suggestion

Hi all,

I'm bulk updating my imported static pages, and the url_alias table structure is really throwing a spanner in the works.

Because it doesn't list the nid straight from, say, node (or taxonomy). No, it lists things (in url_alias.src) as "node/$nid". And "taxonomy/term/$tid".

Why not instead add a field that says "n" or "t" or whatever (or a link to another table with "node/" or "taxonomy/term" or whatever), and grab the key fields straight from the node or term tables?

Expanding the Content Filter in the CMS

Hello Everyone,

this is a coool CMS, and we just built a site with it, of course we had to learn our lessons, but
apart from some tiny little issues, we are really happy.

There is one thing I would like to ask you to help me with is the following,

when an editor is looking for content to edit, there is a huge list on our site,
( like 2000 events for example in the db.) so if you go to the content page

/admin/content/node

you can see the content(s) of the site.

you have this great filter tool which can be used to filter out defining some of the parameters.
it works great,

although our requirement is that the editors in the CMS can search by TITLE of article or other node types.

we would like to extend this filter to do that, or provide an additional option to search by title etc.

My question is,

how should we proceed? can anyone give me some ideas or clues about this ?
is there a better way doing this ? I am sure we are not the first ones facing this problem :)

I search trhough the forum but I found some many things regarding filters that I gave up.
ALthough if anybody is reading this and know and entry in the forum, PLEASE be kind and post it here so that I can go there and learn from there.

would the search module provide this functionality in the CMS ?

Firefox on Ubuntu Linux system unable to login to Drupal site

I just switched my laptop to Ubuntu 7.04 and am using Firefox 2.0.0.3 and for some reason I am unable to login to both of my drupal sites. I can access it with my other computer with both browsers (IE 6 and FF) but not on this one. When I check the logs of the site it shows me as logged in at the time that I tried to but after filling in my passwords and hitting submit it goes to a blank page after 1 min of patient waiting. Takes forever! Anyone else having this problem? Is it the browser of the site? I am a noobie to Linux but Ubuntu was the easiest install ever.

Mixing form with content on page

Hi

I am trying to build an addition to drupal that gives each user a "subscription"--which, in this case, is a customized subset of all content in the system.

And, I want every user A to be able to see every other user B's subscription by giving B's user name.

So, on the page that shows you your subscription, I want to have at the top a textbox that allows you to type in user B's user name, click "go", and then be taken to user B's subscription (i.e. the same page again but with different values supplied for the arguments).

Keeping variable value between calls
