Uwe Hermann's Drupal article in PHP Solutions is out

By robertdouglass on

Uwe Hermann has written a comprehensive article in the current issue of PHP Solutions, German edition Ausgabe 1 2006 (13). Uwe walks his readers through installing Drupal, and considers topics like multisite setups from the very beginning. He pays careful attention to describing how one would create a portal site (music portal in his article), where the site would be accessed using different subdomains, such as rock.example.com, blues.example.com and classical.example.com. This includes using database prefixing, and Uwe provides assistance on using the database prefixing scripts which ship with Drupal.

image module for 4.7?

By gollyg on

This may be a really stupid question, but i cant find the release of the image module or image assist for 4.7. Has there been one, or is it still running off cvs (cvs seemed to indicate an earlier release)?

How to filter node title through SmartyPants?

By roxeteer on

I installed SmartyPants module for translating straight quotes to "curly" quotes. I enabled the filter for Filtered HTML input format and it's working correctly for the body text of my flexinode content.

However, the title is displayed without filtering. How can I make Drupal filter it too?

Just Upgraded

By saladin on

Hi Everyone,

I've just upgraded from 4.6 to 4.7 at www.area51.gen.nz and I have also changed themes so it is a little bare of individualisation at present.

My question for anyone is how can I change from non-clean to clean url's after I have had this feature disabled in previous editions?

Is it a matter of running a sql query to change the database or something else?

Any help is appreciated :)

Cheers

Sally

Drupal: The Good, the Bad and the Ugly

By dsafsdfasfsdfsdafaf on

What needs to change in 2006:

  • Drupal.org is in dire need of a new template. It hurts my eyes looking at it. What's wrong with it? Consider viewing it at a lower resolution, try 800X600. Notice anything? Immediately search functionality is broke, because the links at the top wrap around and block the search box. Plus the content overlaps itself, blocking content and making the site inaccessible. It definitely needs a footer. Does anyone hold rights to Drupal.org? Apparently not. And if so, they should display copyright information. The logo also needs simplified to establish more of an icon. The content needs reorganized into simplified categories, and the sidebar would be more friendly and profound on the left side of the page. Most importantly, the Drupal handbook is entirely outdated and needs major revisions and updates. I suggest hiring a PR manager. I'll even take the job for $30K/year. Image is everything in today's market.
  • Drupal-generated HTML source code is no where close to clean in terms of how it's displayed. You might as well put it all on one line, because it seems to wind up that way. A simple fix is for developers to include adequate linefeeds in the php code. Souce code should be clean and concise.

    Clean HTML source code looks like:

    <div class="cleancode">
  <p>This is an example of clean source code</p>
</div>

    Drupal-generated HTML source code looks like:

    Non-clean source code
