Module development and code questions

Is there a gallery.module that works with the new Gallery 2.1 release?

I installed the G2.1 Integration Code (http://drupal.org/node/45159) but images in the random block on Drupal are broken, with an URL pointing to the wrong directory. Anyone else having this problem or know the fix?

Thanks.

We already have a Drupal made community that we need help rebuilding to match a new community.

First task is to move and install it on the new server and then to modify/add new/remove some of the modules we are using and changing our custom theme.

Please get back with your rating and also some example work you have done in Drupal. We would like you to be able to start right away!

Thanks!

I'm getting Unable to get Gallery image block when I try to add Gallary2 to my blocks. So of course I can't get to it from my mneu.

I've even tried updated using the inforamtion found here:
http://drupal.org/node/32393

I'm sure this is an easy fix and being new to Drupal, please excuse my ignorrance.

Thanks,
Aaron

Some of Drupal's database table and column naming conventions make me crazy.

A primary key name should match the table name. For example, table 'role' should have a primary key of 'roleid' (not 'rid'.)

ID fields in a table that follow the primary key should be considered foreign keys and should use the same name as the originating table.

I have just noticed that all of the 4.7 modules are missing the ?> tag at the end. Is this intentional or some problem with the packaging?

Hi all,

I need some help in writing a module for Drupal. I have installed drupal and as far as I think I understood some parts of writing a module, but havent completely understood. By the way i write PHP code for some small projects.

This is the whole scenario.

Iam part of an alumni of a school back in India. They have a website with all the user profiles stored in mysql database. We wanted to use the same database. I tried to solve this problem I imported all the fields from this DB to mine. They have a field called "status" which shows whether they are alumni or not.

Can I give roles based on these field "status"? I want to assign two roles. Mentor and Mentee. If he is part of the alumni he is a mentor otherwise he is a mentee. If "yes" I can proceed with the next question. Can I get some references to such implementation and how can it be done.

The next thing is I have to have an application form for the mentors which they need to fill, like the specializations information and so.

The mentees will not get this application form .they will get a search form and when they search for a specialization they need help in, they get to the list of mentees. Messaging between the mentors-mentees is not restricted rite now. I want to use the concept of buddy list after this.

My question is whether there is a similar implementation like this which i can use or should I start from scracth. If i have to start from scratch, can ppl point me to some modules with some part of these implemementations.
