Deprecated - Drupal core

I am not sure if this post goes better here or in the module development forum. Acidfree was not quite as integrated as I thought it was when I first added it to the contributions tree. A couple of nice people have helped point that out to me and get me to use some more standardized functions that are part of the drupal core. This is about the point where I realized that my image handling stuff is completely separate from the drupal image toolkit. Oops.

I noticed that Image.module ships with an image.imagemagick.inc file for the imagemagick executable toolkit. I had actually re-written something similar to that for use in acidfree (one more black mark for me.) Anyway, I am repenting of my evil ways and making acidfree use the drupal image toolkits. I have two requests. And this is why I chose this forum rather than the module development forum.

First, how do I go about adding a new method to the built-in image.inc gd-toolkit. I want it to support image composition (i.e. pin the tail on the donkey.) I have written a version for myself that seems to be fine. Should I just open a feature request and post a patch? I did that for the filemanager module and it seems to have gone unnoticed for about 2 weeks.

Second, how do I go about adding a new image toolkit? I have expanded the imagemagick one to have a composite method and I have written a new imagick one that has all the functions of the other two.

i tried using path module add alias contain russian letters charset.

/*path.module/*
if (!valid_url($dst)) {
form_set_error('dst', t('The alias %alias is invalid.', array('%alias' => theme('placeholder', $dst))));
}
/*common.inc/*
function valid_url($url, $absolute = FALSE) {
$allowed_characters = '[a-z0-9\/:_\-_\.\?\$,~=#&%\+]';
if ($absolute) {
return preg_match("/^(http|https|ftp):\/\/". $allowed_characters ."+$/i", $url);
}
else {


Hallo.

I wonder: it is said so much about that nodes conception is so great thing, but why comments are not implemented as nodes?

If it would be so, it was very easy to customize "forum" to have lots of features and nice interface; and now only the way for "cool forum" is to hack "comment" module.

Of course, may be I don't understand something, but I wonder... I'll be glad if you make it clear, thank you!

Woo hoo segfault!
At one point I installed an new theme, actually a duplicate of an existing one I planned to modify. Just a directory copy within 'themes'.
Next I enabled it as default without previewing it or anything.

The entire drupal system crashed

Attempting to view anything returned a "Cannot Find Server" error (not any broken page sort of thing)
Turns out it was causing Apache to segfault!

Repair (lucky I had low-level DB access) was only possible by undoing my mistake by reverting the theme by hand;

Really quick question, what variable in the term_data or other tables determin forum type? I.e., if a forum element is a container or a forum. Some of my forums, for some add reason, get created as a container when I went to "add new forum", and I wanna forceably change them back to a forum thru the database. Is there a way I can do that? Check out http://www.anthropology.net/forum to see whats up yourselves.

Hi,

I recently modified my menu.inc function theme_menu_item_link($item, $link_item) from:

return l($item['title'], $link_item['path'], array_key_exists('description', $item) ? array('title' => $item['description']) : array());

to:
return l($item['title'], $link_item['path'], $item['attributes']);
