testimonials

Hey,

I am attempting to make a module node for registered users to submit testimonials. The way I would like to work is that I have a simple content type called testimonials that is accessible by registered users. They type in their testimonial and it goes into moderation. Upon acceptance the content is published to the website like any other content.
I am basing this off the story module which is easy enough. However, one thing that I can't work out is how to do away with all the fields except for title and body.

Any advice is welcome.

Scan virus process

I think a fileshare has a lot potential to make module use more accessible to anonymous and no trusts users to post theirs files after a scan virus process. The upload module can do the same in diferent way.
I am thinking to force users to get theirs files scanned before the use of the upload process in the fileshare module or in upload module.

Customizing an Index, Customizing Categories

Hi, I have a lot of questions but I will try to stick to the big ones. We're working on a multiuser site. Some of the writers will be paid, some will sign up for free and post their own material.

We need users to sign up and pick one of six categories they would like to be placed under for the index listing. We need the paid writers to appear at the top of the index for each of the six categories so I assume there is a way to weight them much like we do terms in the taxonomy or the menus. Any idea what that is? Do I make a table entry just for them?

Flash Games module

I am in the process of writing a Drupal Flash Games module which will support games from www.pnflashgames.com. To install a new game on your web site, you need to download and extract a game from the www.pnflashgames.com web site then upload it to a folder on the web server (I use files/games). From there, you create content a flash game and specify related game information, i.e., name, description, game file, author, height, width, background color, etc. If the game uploaded is scoring enabled, high scores for each user will be saved, and on the game's node the top 20 scores will be displayed.

My proof-of-concept works, albeit with a tweak to menu.inc. However, the module needs much more. Even though I am a software developer of 16 years, I am a novice at PHP and more like infancy-level at Drupal module developement. I am sure there are things I am doing wrong in regards to best practices in Drupal module development.

I could really use the help of some seasoned Drupal module developers to get this module complete so that the community can benefit from it. Before Drupal, I ran numerous Postnuke web sites with a similar module and you would be surprised how much traffic that simple module generated.

Things that need to be done:

  • Add Top Players block
  • Add Latest Top Scores block
  • View games by categories (not completely up on Drupal taxonomy yet)

user warning: Table 'bilsa.bilsa' doesn't exist query: SELECT * FROM bilsa in /var/www/drupal/includes/database.mysql.inc on line 120.

Hi & Happy New Year.

I'm a drupal newbie and trying to tweak the forum on my site: http://guernseykayaking.com/forum
I've fiddled with the css to change the colours, but now i'd really like to have it so that in the last post column, it displays the title of the last post as well as just the date and user.

I've seen this on other drupal sites and searched extensively for a solution but have been unable to find anything!
