Module development and code questions

Hi,

I am in the process of upgrading from 4.4.2 to 4.6.3. Presently I have a test system set up on my home PC and I've been gradually adding modules.

What I really noticed is that the Emailpage and Link2page modules that I use on 4.4.2 aren't available under 4.6 (or even 4.5).

Is there a way to activate this in 4.6?

If not, has anyone already created new versions of these modules or in the process of doing so? I am not remotely very good with Drupal so don't want to bother if someone better has already done it all or is about to.

Cheers
Theo

Hey all

I run several sites on drupal, and while it's great by itself - it's image module is very weak, and the Gallery Integration is unstable. As of right now - Gallery module has several bugs that are serious enough for me not to use it. However, i would love to have a working G2+Drupal integration.

Yes, i know that a good programmer can either fix the integration or write his own, but i'm not a programmer. The original author of gallery module is "busy" with work, and can't work on the module.

Hi there,

Is there a module in drupal which notifies users via email when a new node is added with a specific taxonomy term?
Users could subscribe to the notify list for specific terms? And when new nodes are posted with these taxonomy terms, they get an email.

Any module out there yet?

Thx

Hi Everyone

I have just written my first module, which went really well.
How do I set the default value for a property of a new node?

Hi Folks

I have inherited a drupal system 4.5.X and am currently experiencing difficulty installing the captcha module
as it looks to be written for 4.6.

However i almost have it working but for some reason the hook captcha_menu is not being called
by the drupal core. Can anyone suggest what could be the problem here ?

Some details..
In the systems table modules/captcha.module has a status of 1 .

Any thoughts would be kindly appreciated

How can I override some, but not all of the functions provided by user.module?

For example, I don't want the user to be able to change their name, email address or password. I'd like to override the user_authenticate function to only allow local users, but authenticate them against LDAP (without the @server in the username). I'd like to disable user registration, but allow the system to create new users that don't exist as long as they pass LDAP authentication. There's more, but you get the idea...
