Module development and code questions

Have been playing with flexinode - great stuff, seems like it should be in core. I've made a few modifications to my version but not sure whether there is a good way to 'contribute' them (subject to review, since I am a PHP and drupal novice, more a perl/[j]python person).

My changes are mainly to support 'assisted' content submission, where you've got an external
content source application that pops up partially filled in flexinode node creation
pages, including file uploads. Also support for referring to flexinode nodes and fields by name rather than ID in URLs/themes (ie. MyNewType instead of flexinode-1, SomeNewField instead of flexinode_3).

I don't know how to make patches or if this is the right place to do it, so sorry if it's wrong!

In line 282 in filestore2.module, where it says 'ORDER BY f.downloads DESC', it should read 'ORDER BY n.changed DESC', like in the original filestore module. Otherwise the 'top files' and 'latest files' lists are the same...

hi forum,

i´m a new user of drupal from germany. we use the drupal in our LAN.

i added the notify module. i also updated the sql.

but... it doesn´t work :-(

so, is there anything i have to replace or edit in the module? or is there a notify module that isn´t so "hugh". a simple notification if a node was added, would be enough.

THANX FOR YOUR HELP.... and sorry for my english...

Hello all,
I've two drupals 4.4.0, aggregating each other.
For example, on this http://www.comenaturacrea.com/aggregator/feed/1, I've aggregated this other http://www.turismovacanze.com/node/feed. But since I've user relative url in stories, and since relatives are written as relatives in the xml feed, I've found that the aggregator using the same relatives in the resulting html, that's right, but the result is wrong.

I uploaded a patch that contains a bunch of changes to the event module including support for repeating events. Its highly untested.

You can see it here: http://drupal.org/node/view/4122

Does anyone know if/how I can create a new term for an existing taxonomy inside the code? ie NOT having to use the form to create a new term?

Thanks, Darrian
