directory.module status?

Does anyone know the status of the directory.module component, located here?

Is there an official maintainer?
Is there an official 'module page' for this module?

It looks interesting, and I'd like to use it, but I've found a few issues when I installed the latest version from the above URL on my 4.7.3 install. I've implemented some fixes, and would like to discuss them with the module maintainer, but I can't find an official page for this module.

ajaxgallery - Ajax Photo Gallery and Flickr-like taxonomy intregration

I've been searching the site for a while for a simple photo gallery that display photos using Drupal's Taxonomy similar to Flickr.com.

I also wanted an Ajax display that will preload the next image in the album similar to http://picasaweb.google.com.

Converting a Simple, yet Huge, 4.6 Form

Hi,

I'm working on converting a module for www.projectopus.com to 4.7. This module, I call it the "Gardener Module", helps admin's merge, group, migrate, and do other mass operations on Taxonomy terms.

Info:

  • The rendered form is in the form of a table, where some of the columns are form fields.
  • This table is a list of ALL the taxonomy terms in the system (don't ask why please..) so it is large. Large enough that memory management is an important consideration
  • I am currently building this form by looping through all the terms and building each row, adding form elements where necessary with form_checkbox .. etc.

The Problem(s):

  • Drupal 4.7 seems to want forms to be created in a more orderly way. From what I've done so far the accepted practise is
    function my_form() {
      //make a form, aka really long loop #1
      foreach ($huge_number_of_terms as $term) {
        // Store a crazy big $form array in memory....
      }
      return $form; // Return the huge form.
    }
    
    function theme_my_form(&$form) {
      // Loop through each term since I need more information from each term, aka really long loop #2
      foreach ($huge_number_of_terms as $term) {
        $rows[] = //make a really really long table with the huge form array.
      }
    }
    

So, basically, in 4.6 I could write this all in one function (saving myself having to build the form array) but 4.7 want's me to double my code execution time and nearly double my memory footprint (since I have to loop through all my terms 2x).

Searchable database... a little lost

I decided to use drupal for my site to make things easier, but now I think it might just be complicating things.

contemplate and flash filter modules together?

Hi,

I have Contemplate module installed, using with Flash Filter and Upload modules. When I create a template for a node using Contemplate, neither of these modules now display content in the node. I have to manually add <?php print theme_upload_attachments($files) ?> to get the attachments listed, and I can't get flash filter to work at all. Is this a bug with contemplate, or is there a different way to force the flash filter module to parse the page for attached flash files, as it would before contemplate was active?

Thanks

Theme Scheduler Plugin? Does it exist?

Greetings,

I'm creating a dual personality website, that is, it has one theme during the day, and it changes at certain hours at night into a completely different theme. The Content remains mostly the same. I was wondering if there was a way to setup a chron job or some kind of plugin that would allow you to select a theme, and have that theme run during the scheduled time.

Also, would there be something available to shedule content on, off, then on again, on a schedule?
