Make taxonomy apply to profile

I originally posted this in the general forum, but I don't think it ever got viewed. Perhaps that was the wrong place for it so I'm posting it again here, since it is, I think, a very valid suggestion for a modification to the core.

>>

I'm developing a site which has numerous roles for users. What I would really like to have is two separate sets of Profiles, each of which could be associated with a few different roles.

I can't help but think that the user roles and profiles could be better arranged like a taxonomy. You have your root vocabulary entry (let's call it the User Vocabulary), which Authenticated User is always a part of. Then you could add terms to that vocabulary to define roles (and sub-roles too, if needed). Then, when you create a set of profile questions, you select which term (role) in the User Vocabulary they apply to. Profile questions set to a specific term would apply to all sub-terms (sub-roles) in that term's tree.

I realise that this would require a large rewrite to the Profile and User modules, but I think it would be well worth the effort. It makes the user role design consistent with the existing Drupal Taxonomy, which makes the whole thing easier to learn. Additionally it adds incredible robustness to the entire user system. This would make Drupal much more attractive to large-scale operations as well as maintain the simplicity that currently exists for smaller sites.

drupal needs some urlencoding on attachments

Hi there,

just thougth I'd let folks know that I made the following hack to file.inc in order to support attachments with #s in them. Let me know if ther is a better place to report bugs:

function file_create_url($path) {

if (strpos($path, variable_get('file_directory_path', 'files')) !== false) {
$path = trim(substr($path, strlen(variable_get('file_directory_path', 'files'))), '\\/');
}

# RCC HACK - need to rawurlencode the path to deal with # chars

$path = rawurlencode($path);

Renaming ?q=admin to something else..

Does anybody know how I can change the administration setup to use a name thats not admin? At present if I turn on url aliasing then as soon as I click the administrator menu item it takes me to my ISP's control panel instead of the drupal system module.

Design spec for webzine format module

On my site I've devised a way to layout stories on the front page by section-- thus avoiding the monolithic approach of the classic "weblog" layout. I call it the webzine format, as the format is quite familiar to traditional webzines.

Why is the Who's online block stats incorrect?

I been using cpgnuke for a while, but switched over to drupal because of a better template system. But, why is the Who's online block stats incorrect (too many users)? Cpgnuke's Who's online block was always was correct.
