The new form api seems to be a great improvement. One thing I am confused about is how to control the actual outout of a form_render call. I have a module that has this line of code form_render($form['choice']); which ends up giving me this HTML
There has been no activity or commits after Dec 29, 2004. I sent a mail to the original developer but have not heard from him ( I cant find my copy ). From what i know, he developed a bunch of modules for drupal and then moved to word press.
Many sites require advanced search functions. These include the ability to search specific node types as well as specific taxonomy terms or vocabs. Furthermore, many sites would benefit from the integration of the Location modules radius search ability within an normal search environment. Finally, sites would benefit from the ability to create multiple "restricted" advanced searches. RSS feeds could be assigned to searches allowing users to monitor specific search criteria automatically through their feed reader. Email notification could also be useful.
Use Cases:
The most obvious use case for such a module would be a job search board. Admin could create a vocabulary for job postings and a flexinode or custom node type. Job searches would be restricted to this node type. Example: http://www.aupeace.org/search/jobs. On the same site, admin could create a "smart search" for housing restricted to housing vocabs and/or node types. Admin could also create a "smart search" within a taxonomy term, or possibly within a specific book with longer publications.
Past Implementations:
As of 4.7, the ability to search based on taxonomy and node type is included in the core. However, the advanced search defaults to include all node types and terms (at least all non-free tagging terms from what I can tell). The SQL Search module does offer the ability to control which vocabs and which node types are part of an advanced search, but the module is being discontinued after 4.6. Also, SQL Search allows an admin to create specific settings for one advanced search. Admin cannot create multiple advanced searches.
It would be useful if Drupal had a display mode setting so that the administrator could view the site as another user or as viewed from another role. Gallery has this and it's very useful, especially when making changes that will only effect users other than the administrator. This allows the administrator to view these changes without having to resort to repeatedly logging in & out, or keeping another browser open logged in as another user / role.
I'm working with this theme on a site i'm creating for young people. But i have just noticed that the main text area break the html in Internet Explorer (i.e. it shifts to the right by about 200-300px). Works fine i Firefox. This is on where you enter text for new node creation, new comment creation, etc...I think it is to do with the new resizable text area found in 4.7. I also feel he solution will probaly lie in some ccs layout mathemetics and calculations for the columns but have tried and still can get to to come into line.
I'm trying to import playlist.mysql, which is this:
CREATE TABLE `playlist_relate` (
`rid` int(11) NOT NULL auto_increment,
`parent_id` int(11) NOT NULL default '0',
`child_id` int(11) NOT NULL default '0',
`weight` int(11) default '0',
PRIMARY KEY (`rid`)
and MySQL gives me the following error:
#1064 - You have an error in your SQL syntax. Check the manual that corresponds to your MySQL server version for the right syntax to use near '' at line 6
