Module development and code questions

Is there some sort of User Bio module or something so that users could look at each other's information? (screen name, etc.)

I didn't get any response in a previous post (http://drupal.org/node/50187) and still have the problem so hopefully someone can help....

I've created my own module based on dashboard and it seems to work when it's in the dashboard folder, however move it to it's own folder or the base module foldre and it shows up in list of modules to enable, but not on the create content page or the "access control" page. Now someone thought it might be linked to absolute paths or the like but as far as I can tell, no.

A great problem to have is that there are simply too many modules to keep track of in Drupal. Many other CMS systems allow users to update modules from within their sites admin interface. From a UI perspective it is obviously better to give admins the ability to install new modules and upate old ones from their admin interface, but this is probably not coming any time soon and would require extensive work.

Hi,

Iam trying to write a new module which basically searches the user profiles and displays the user names. The users have filled in some values and i want users to be able to search among themselves saying what content has each give.

for this i thought I should write a new search module. The search module (which should be in a block) should be able to search the data and display the users with the data on the search results page. I dont know how to link between the form in the block to the page results. Can someone give me some ideas how to go about?

Hi there!
I wanted to know what´s the difference between creating a page or a story, vs. creating an article.
I´ve read the article module documentation, and installed it, but still don´t get its usefulness, or let´s say the difference.
It seems useful, but in the very same way that a story or maybe a page could be.

Please, if someone could explain a bit more about that module I would be very grateful.

Thanks!!

I know this is a long shot, but I just can't seem to figure it out on my own. I would like to modify the g2_filter that comes with the gallery module, so that the links to pictures have rel="lightbox" in them.

If you have heard of the lightbox.js script you know what I want to do. I was able to use this customization to use it in my albums section, but I would like to be able to use it on my blog pages.
