Drupal 4.7.x

I appreciate the work done so far on podcast modules and related modules, but they're just lacking in features and intuition as to what's required of a full-fledged podcasting solution.

So, I'm going to build a NEW podcast module that can handle virtually all of our needs as podcasters. The features I want to incorporate are as follows:

1. Ability to upload/attach media files OR link to external files.
2. Full feed control. I want to be able to set the title/author/etc. tags as well as itunes tags per show and per episode.
3. Multiple shows. I don't want users tied down to using their blogs, and I want the shows to have more flexibility than just a vocabulary term.

In order to do all this, I think I'll need to create two new node types, one for shows and one for episodes. I'll also need to write a special feed generator JUST for podcast shows, and I need to figure out how to assign user permissions PER SHOW, not simply all-or-none permission for podcasts.

I am FULLY WILLING to do all of the coding for this project. However, I would like some guidance from more experienced drupal modders in the best way to implement these features.

I'm also planning to write a podcast-directory module that'll work sort of like the aggregator, grabbing episodes from feeds and displaying/re-feeding/streaming them.

Hello,

I got 4.7beta up and running very nicely. Everything works EXCEPT, I cannot bring my imported(from 4.6.3)nodes. They're all there, I can see them hiding in the database, but they will not format themselves. Instead I get a "N/A" where each node should be. When I create a new node, it formats perfectly. However, all my older nodes from 4.6.3 will not show. I think it's a permission issue, but I 've gone through permissions, roles, and access a half dozen times. Has anyone else experienced this? I have about 1000 nodes that I would very much like to see again. Any ideas?

I have a module with a form_name, form_name_validate and form_name_execute. In cvs version the module work, in 4.7 the function form_name_execute don't start..... is a bug of 4.7? The code:


<?php

function test2_form_help($section='') {
$output = '';
switch ($section) {
case "admin/modules#description":
$output = t("Insert test2_form");
break;
}
return $output;
}

function test2_form_perm() {
return array('access content', 'access test2_form', 'administer test2_form');
}

function test2_form_menu() {
$items = array();
$items[] = array(
'path' => 'test2_form',
'title' => t('test2_form insert'),
'callback' => 'test2_form_exe',
'access' => user_access('access test2_form'),
'type' => MENU_NORMAL_ITEM );
return $items;
}

function test2_form_exe() {
$output .= test2_form_form();
print theme('page', $output);
}

function test2_form_form(&$value = NULL)
{
$form['#method'] = 'post';
$form['#action'] = 'test2_form';
$form['name'] = array(
'#type' => 'textfield',
'#title' => t('Is Only a test2_form_form'),
'#size' => 50,
'#maxlength' => 50,
'#required' => TRUE,
'#value' => $value['name'],
);
$form['submit'] = array('#type' => 'submit', '#value' => t('confirm'));
$output = drupal_get_form('test_form', $form);
return $output;
}

function test_form_validate($form_id, $form_values) {

Hello all

I am new to Drupal and tried to install it just to see if it can fit my needs for a new website. I followed the instructions for installation, configured my "sites/default/settings.php" file, but when I point to my drupal rot directory I reveive:

"Unable to connect to database server

This either means that the username and password information in your settings.php file is incorrect or we can't contact the MySQL database server. This could mean your hosting provider's database server is down.

Can any one tell me how to install drupal 4.7
do any one have documentation on this.
