Module development and code questions

Hi guys!

Am having problem with sending Robert's enewsletter module. Perhaps somebody has an idea of how I can fix this problem? --

Thanks in advance!

Hi

I am trying to move my module development and site development over to 4.7 so I don't get left behind.
I installed drupal-cvs.tar.gz and got my own module working with the new forms. The rest of the site I'd like to create is giving me some problems and there are 2 symptoms I'd like some pointers on.

1) There are a few modules which I have tried to install that give me errors I think are related to the new
form API.

For example:

I installed drupal.org/files/projects/fckeditor-cvs.tar.gz and get the following when I try to access the settings page:

Fatal error: Call to undefined function: form_textfield()
modules/fckeditor/fckeditor.module on line 75

Can someone tell me if this module will be updated by someone and if there is a list of modules that people will be updating? I can approach each module maintainer individually but if there is general knowledge that its coming and I have just jumped the gun then someone please say something.

2) A few modules also just freeze the modules link. Clicking on it does nothing - it loads but exactly the same page - well it just doesn't change at all. Modules that do this include og (-cvs.tar.gz), simplenews (-cvs.tar.gz), latexfilter (-cvs.tar.gz). If I delete the directory everythign starts to work again.

Is this also related to 4.7 changes and has anyone seen this behaviour before or can someone suggest something?

has anyone made a hack to the taxonomy module to limit the selection of taxonomy terms to a certain number?

i'd like to be able to select multiple terms with a limit of, say, 4 terms.

is it possible to do this with the current interface? it seems like it may not be given how you can either have a select box or a multple-select dropdown menu.

any ideas would be appreciated.

thanks!

Hello,

It is not clear to me if modules can override theme_* functions (eg. theme_username). Clearly, I could do it with a theme, but that seems like an unfortunate way to do it, as module installation would be a pain.

Any thoughts?

Hey all,

I'm having some trouble getting my node links to redirect from the main intro page to a new template page I want to use as opposed to the front page template for things like articles and posts, etc.

After finding this module (http://drupal.org/project/front) I thought it wouldn't be too hard to adapt it to my needs, but it's proving harder than I thought.

If you guys need any more specifics please let me know.

Thanks

What is the best way to create a multi-step module?

I have written the php code for this function as a stand-alone program, and now I need to integrate it into Drupal.

So far I have created a new node with the basic hooks. but I can't figure out how to implement the 2 steps.

I'm looking to do this: User enters some values. Those values are used to set up the next screen. User enters values into the new screen and clicks submit, and the content is created.

Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks,
