Module development and code questions

Sorry to ask, but I have looked around and experimented. I am using the image.mod and img_assist.mod, which seems perfect for what I want it to do.

HOWEVER, when I preview, all I see is squareblocked coding. What am I doing wrong to not see the image instead?

Mucho appreciation in advance,

Stephen

Hi all,

As a group of friends we used a message board that came with an online game (soccer competition), but now we would like to have our own site with the same functionality.

It is something very simple and easy: It is basically a forum with a single thread which is directly displayed on the front page. It should only be visible and editable for logged-in users.

I have tried some things with the forum module and several other modules and I have searched the forum, but I am afraid I cannot find it.

Does anybody have an idea how to set this up?

On my site, I'm using books as online courses. Now I want to add a credit system, i.e. users have credits according to their activity on the site. When they want to advance to a new course unit, a certain amount of credits is automatically subtracted from their account balance. If they don't have enough credits, they're told how much credits they need instead of seeing the course unit.

I want all user uploads being run through anti-virus software. My hosting company offers the software. All I have to do, is to run the uploads in /tmp through it right after they have been uploaded via a shell_exec in PHP and to delete the uploaded file rather than move it to the uploads directory if the upload string contains "Infected". However, I don't want to put this into upload.module since I'd have to change upload.module after every update of the module or of Drupal. I want to put it in a module on its own.

Are service links incompatible with any other modules? It was working fine on my site, but it may have stopped working after a few modules were installed.

I installed the collapsiblock and it workes great!! I could set the Block collapse behavior: Collapsible, expanded by default.
But as soon as I changed the Page specific visibility settings for the BLOCK (PHP Mode):Show if the following PHP code returns TRUE. It works but suddenly no matter what settings I put in the Block collapse behavior it is ALWAYS :Collapsible, "collapsed" by default. I want it to be expanded by default.
