Drupal 4.7.x

hi,

i'm trying to install drupal on a hosted site and i'm not able to connect to the main site. i'm using 4.7.0 beta 4 - the error i get is

Parse error: parse error, unexpected T_CONSTANT_ENCAPSED_STRING in [editted out]/sites/default/settings.php on line 95

i've looked through and reviewed line 95 and it can't see what would be causing this issue.

thanks.

I use the latest QuickTags as the text editor on my site (http://chicagoclassicalmusic.org). TinyMCE is installed but not activated.

My problem is this. When users want to link a word or phrase within the text form, they should be able to highlight the text and click on the "Link" icon button and it will insert the code surrounding the highlighted portion. In fact, this is done flawlessly with the other buttons for italics, bold, etc.

I find myself in the position of doing more & more drupalling- at work (IT department of large chemical company). I have started using drupal for documenting code I write for internal clients, and now have delivered a few proofs of some new concepts (e.g. a front end for department-wide Subversion repository).

IT leaders in my dept have started asking me to deliver features for them. There is a push to move our monthly progress reports from Lotus Notes into Drupal. People are getting interested in the idea of newsletters, discussion forums & even internal blogs (unheard of in our corporation)! People have been trying to get more collaboration in my company for decades (and spent millions)- is it outrageous to try to position Drupal for this?

I am sure there are a million gotchas here. I was thinking I should deliver a single bit of functionality at a time and resist to much "diarrhea of the modules". Also, since no newsletter module is available for 4.7 yet, some in my dept have taken to using discussion forums to capture monthly progress reports. This is not the intended purpose of forums, and I wonder what trouble I am in for if I let it go.

Any advice as to how to effectively roll out Drupal for a corporate intranet? I did not see a site recipe in the handbook on using Drupal for fostering collaboration among employees of corporations. Maybe we could capture some such ideas here?

I'm working on exposing the data in the signup module to the views module. So far I've got a table view that lists nodes and one user signed up to each node, but it doesn't handle multiple values, i.e. where a node has two or more users signed up.

How do I handle that?

Here's the code I'm using:

I post daily news on my site in the form of a Story, each story has a link to the original article or another website.
The problem is some stories don't always reach the 200 character limit I have set, this causes the link to show up on the main page.

I want to have a teaser for each posting and the link display only when the visitor clicks the full post. You can insert the delimiter "

Hi

How can I customise the output of $links in my nodes (using 4.7 beta 4)? I want to be able to choose which links to display and where.

Searching turned up a lot of advice for 4.6 but here Ber says; "In 4.7/HEAD we return structured data for those links. Its very easy to change this in 4.7."

Can anyone point me towards this easy way? That'd be a great help.

Thanks in advance for you help.

Ed.
