does flexinode scale?

What if a site gets many thousands of flexinodes? i could imagine the performance of flexinodes becoming an issue, since retrieving each field requires a subquery of the flexinode_field table?

In practice, does anyone find there are penalties in using flexinodes?

Automatic User IDs

Hi All:

I want to create automatic serial IDs for the users as opposed to having them choose it for themselves. I want the user ids to be consecutive serial no.s which the users cannot change in future...Is there a way to do that?

Thanks,
Dkaps

Fresh install of 4.7

Grr, here was me hoping the install of 4.7 would be easy. I'm only installing this version to use the category module. Can anyone help me out with some solutions to these errors please? I have version 4.6.5 installed perfectly for another website on the same server, so it can't be PHP that is the problem. Incidentally, I am running PHP version 4.3.3.

Link theme to user or content

I'm migrating from Mambo/Joomla to Drupal. There are two things which I currently miss in Drupal, and I wonder if there are any easy solutions for this.

The first thing is the ability to link themes to users. In Mambo/Joomla, the public site is separated from the administrator interface with a different theme. Is something similar for Drupal possible? Designing a theme kinda breaks the ability to administer the site, especially if you're still messing with the template engine.

Flexinode & Taxonomy in table view

I've been crawling through the forums to find an account of this..

I know that through assigning a new flexinode content type to a specific vocab, enables the option to select tax terms for the specific flexi-node. Now, I want to make this taxonomy term show up as a part of the tabular view, so that an extra column is created within which the (clickable) taxonomy term is shown.

I assume this takes some modification of the module and I'm not yet sure if it would be best to modify the original flexinode or the fleximax module.. probably this doesn't really matter.

custom blocks

Howdie there people BeeN a drupal fan for 8 months now and been happy with the limited themeing ability up to now.. So im trying to get a basic understanding of how things are working in the theme modual (starting with push button).

My first task is to customize the image insterted at the top of each block (want different images for different blocks).. sounds easy enough..
Done a bit of reading and getting a little stuck..

i know each block uses "box.tpl.php" right

wich goes like this

print $title

print $content

then in the css

.block .title h3 {
border-bottom: 2px solid #6699cc;
color: #369;
font-size: 18px;
font-weight: bold;
padding: 10px 5px 10px 30px;
margin-bottom: .25em;
background: transparent url(icon-block.png) left center no-repeat;
}
.block .content {
padding: 5px 5px 5px 5px;
}
.block {
margin-bottom: 1.5em;
}

lastly in the view source of the rendered html page

Events

bla bla bla bla bla

right so now my question..

do i have to edit the box.tpl.php file and create custom one's eg test.tpl.php but then how do i get selected blocks to use that file?
or do i have to create a custom

.blockTest .title h3 {
border-bottom: 2px solid #6699cc;
