How to sort modules ?

Hello,

I saw there is an ability to sort modules by weight field in Drupal 4.7
The feature is very usefull because it helps to affect on hook order.
But, I didn't saw an interface to change module's weight field. I even saw a weight field in system table. Can I flexibly change modules weight instead of changing them in the table directly ?

Thanks.

Publish Content default bit not being respected by Create Content

We are running Drupal 4.6 (from Civicspace 0.8.3).
We had all the default content bits turned off (Published, In Moderation Queue, etc).
We have turned the default Published bit for content type Forum back on.
But when anyone goes to Create Content / Forum, and then saves the new Forum item,
it is NOT published by default.

So, the fact we have Forum content type set to Publish by default is not being picked up when a user creates new Forum content.

PHPTemplate with EOD ...

Greetings,

After reading some threads about what is better PHPTemplate or Smarty. I came to a decision that the single advantage of Smarty is that you don't need to often use php tags and templates looks much easier for CSS guy or designer who does't know PHP.

But, why don't to use '<< Here is an original block.tpl.php listing:

Upload vs. Attachments

Greetings,

I'm now trying to consider what module to use to manage file attachments for nodes.
I tried upload.module and attachment.module

As I understood, the advantages of attachment.module are unique file names, improved file storage (filemanager.module) and improved attachment table and form abilities (file Title and Description).

Why is the teaser stored in the database?

Teasers are stored in the database table

node_revisions (
  ...,
  title varchar(128) NOT NULL default '',
  body longtext NOT NULL,
  teaser longtext NOT NULL,
  ...
);

by saving the node. Implemented in this way, a change of setting-teaser-length after saving the node has no effect until the node is saved again.

I'm wondering too, that if a teaser-length is set to unlimited, the same text ist saved in body and teaser fields. This blows up the database.

Upload module settings in 4.7

Hello

I noticed that upload.module in 4.7 has less settings than it was in 4.6
There are no limitation settings which we were using in 4.6.

What should I use in 4.7 to achive the same result ?

Thanks.
