Module development and code questions

Hi Guys,

thanks to jjef for coming up with this...it's a Content Template Module for Drupal that is so good I thought it worth flagging on here.

It allows you to setup bespoke node templates for your TEASERS and FULL NODES for ALL CONTENT TYPES.

Not only that...but as you're setting up your template, it provides you with a full list of variables available to you for your template.

I hope this is the write area to post this question, if not please excuse my lack of experience with this. I am new to using Drupal and am having some difficulty configuring the main page of my site. I only want to have "blocks" with highlight material initially, and these blocks will linke to the main nodes. However, material that is published always shows up as the first item in the content bar, followed by its block that I created by editing the module. Is there a way to stop the full text nodes from showing up?
Thanks.

Hey all.

So here's my latest question...

I am trying to create a view which is based on taxonomy term filters. The filter must create a view which displays "news + disability + health + mental health" on one page. That's easy, i guess.

But it also must display results that match news (absolutely) and any one of those terms. It must not require that all three terms (disability, health and mental health) be present.

I notice that it stated on the Views module main page that it is only capable of ANDing results, so I won't ask if it can do OR's, cause it can't. :-( This is my problem, I think.

I would really be curious to know if it's possible to generate such a view. This view must be available as both a node and a page, which is why views is perfect, except that it won't let me pull these results.

So, in short:

- Can someone confirm that I just can't do this with the Views module, just in case I missed something?

- Is there some way I can write in some code into a filter to make this happen? (it's really important for this anti-poverty advocacy site I am working on)

- Has anyone already written something I can use?

- Will there be a new version of views which is able to filter results in a less discriminate manner?

Thanks so much to all the developers who are working on this module. Out of all of them, it has saved my life the most. Really, it is the best ever, especially 4.7, when combined with the ability to place blocks in the content section. In a couple of years I hope to be good enough to contribute code too, but so far I am still learning.

Hello All,

I'm New to Drupal, and trying to install the image module and image assist.

In the directions, it says to "Upload the img_assist.mysql using phpMyAdmin. However, I cannot find this in the unzipped files for image_assist.

Suggestions?

Just wondering if Drupal has any helper APIs that would ease getting a file and other data our of an HTTP POST coming from a Java Applet (not a form). Does the upload.module allow me to make an api call that would get the file from the HTTP POST, and store it into a temp directory for further processing?

Is there any way how I can catch "Request new password" action (user/password) in my own module without hacking into user.module?.. I checked all available user module hooks and can't seem to find anything suitable. Any idea?
