what do you guys think of my latest work i did for a company? i designed the whole site, including the template and all necessary views files including custom module development.

it took a lot of work, the site structure is very complicated and most of the site is run on views and cck and some custom module development, a lot of theme over rides were used as well as custom php coding to achieve the desired effect of what u see on the website

the customer wanted a music portal that was unlike many of the others around, im still working with the customer to bring more features to the site as to make it a lot more interactive and dynamic.. for example we created an EVENTS content type that also links to an ARTIST content type which in turn is linked to a MUSIC content type, so when a user is viewing a MUSIC content type linked to a particular ARTIST, and that ARTIST happens to have an event coming up, the EVENT details are rendered through VIEWS and a custom image is created for the EVENT and displayed on the page of the MUSIC the user is viewing.. :)

That is a nice looking site!

The section immediately under the header is pushed to the left about 150px-200px or so causing a scroll bar in Firefox and Chromium. And you might want to get a different favicon.

Great job! (Though, why the shortened url above?)

really? are u using windows? because on my mac its fine in both firefox and chrome!!!!

I was on Linux last night,

I was on Linux last night, and now I'm on Windows and same problem in IE. It seems the problem starts here:

<div class="main clearfix">
<div class="ja-box column ja-box-left" style="width: 33.33%;">
<div id="block-views-music_frontpage-block_1" class="ja-block block block-views  clearfix">
but I don't have my web tools set up yet to confirm.

thanks for that, i will check

thanks for that, i will check it out and see what can be done, still working with the client on some features so will get back to the minor errors :)

appreciated.

Good Job!

PRezaei,

Good Job! Looks very promising. But I have to confirm that you have an offset of the middle block to the left. I know its a pain and mostly overrated, but you should validate your side with w3c just to know how close you are to be valid ;-) I often do that more for seeing coming problems in other browsers than for the 3 webdesigners stelling me my code isn't. But if it isn't, mostly there will be one browser outside somewhere which shows it off. :-)

But in spite of that, its a good job! congratulations. Looks better than UK MTV made with drupal. My opinion. D6 as far as I can see from the sourcecode? (EDIT: ups, now I saw the tag. Ok it is. Sorry) What did you use for the quick menu?

I know a very succesful music producer over here in Europe. Maybe I should show him your work and you will have another client ;-)) ... ??

greetings from Berlin, Germany

Thank you so much for the

Thank you so much for the props :) its much appreciated
What offset are you refering to? im not quite sure if i understand!

Im still in the process of adding some more features to the site, so once its 100% complete ill be sure to validate everything with w3c :)

Yes Drupal 6, i feel its more stable a lot more convenient for what we needed done, more module support etc...

For the Quick menu i created a custom block region and then created an extra menu list which i then coded to link into the block region, i then used ajax and some css to create the pull down effect

Id be more than happy to get introduced :) that would be great, much appreciated

Regards,

can you please tell me how

can you please tell me how did you do it linking different conten type

what do u mean?

what do u mean?

comment module?

Hey, I really liked your site. I am very new to drupal and trying to learning things. You can see here what I have done till now with drupal http://goo.gl/qeamm

Would you please tell me what module are you using in the comment, the one in video. I was looking for something like this for my site as well. Please help. Many thanks.

the comment system i used is

the comment system i used is the Facebook Social commenting system. I used the facebook sdk codes to implement it into my node-node_type.tpl.php

Thank you for your prompt

Thank you for your prompt reply.
I am sorry to ask you about the same thing again. For a beginner like me, is it possible to do what you did? Actually I do not have any idea how to implement sdk codes into node-node_type.tpl.php

I would be really thankful if you explain a bit more for me. Many many thanks.

in order for you to be able

in order for you to be able to properly implement the facebook comments system in to your site i would recommend you install the Facebook social module. Thats the easiest route to take if you are a beginner and dont know much about coding.

I decided to code the code in to the site myself instead of using the module because i was having problems with the module and decided this was a better route to take. if you want to take the route i took then you need to do this:

Insert this code in your page.tpl.php file:

<html xmlns:fb="http://www.facebook.com/2008/fbml" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" xmlns:og="http://opengraphprotocol.org/schema/" xml:lang="<?php echo $language->language; ?>" lang="<?php echo $language->language; ?>">

Then insert this code in your node.tpl.php file where you want the comments displayed:

<div id="fb-root"></div><script src="http://connect.facebook.net/en_US/all.js#xfbml=1"></script><fb:comments href="http://www.yoursite.com/<?php print $node_url ?>" num_posts="25" width="600"></fb:comments><br />

WOW!!!

Dear Friend,

I used the second method as I had already tried fb social modules and it triggered lots of errors on 7.x.
It worked like a charm, flawless. I found what I was looking for weeks in google, forums, blogs and everywhere. How can I express my thanks to you!!! Thank you soooooo much.

Cheeers!!

One more thing

Hey, I hope I am not irritating you by asking series of questions. But practically speaking I am getting much knowledge with your help.
I want to ask another question actually. I have implemented facebook comment system in my nodes. But I also want to display a block on my sidebar with latest comments that come from facebook social plugin. Is there anyway I can do that? I tried Activity Feed plugin by facebook but it is not displaying the latest comments. It just shows who shared my page in the past.

Thank you so much again.

good job. looks great....I've

good job. looks great....I've got 2 questions if you don't mind:

how did you implement the JW-Player?...with SWF-Tools?...I've been struggling with that player for a long time now, because JW5 wasn't implemented for a long time (as far as I got that's included in SWF Tools now). I was just hoping you implemented that by hand and I'd get some hints on how I could do the same in D7 ;)

the menu was done with a module? ...also if it has been done by hand it would be fabulous to learn how you did it....

but overall a fantastic job and great implementation of all the social buzz....congrats.

i dont know about drupal 7,

i dont know about drupal 7, im using 6
for the player i installed jwplayer 5 and used the following code in my node.tpl file to call it
for the node i created 2 cck fields, one for mp3 and one for image, the following code displays the image as a background and plays the mp3 file

<?php print swf($node->field_mp3_upload[0]['filepath'], array(
           
'flashvars' => array('image' => 'http://www.mysite.com/' . ($node->field_content_image[0]['filepath']),
          )
        ));
?>

note, that your image files must be lower case and not contain any spaces, otherwise jwplayer wont display them.. i used pathauto to rename all images uploaded via cck

for the menu i created a custom module which i then called into the theme, it uses jquery, im thinking of releasing the code so once i get some time i may release it as a module

fabulous work, man. And

fabulous work, man. And thanks for that code snippet, that's exactly the hint I've been looking for.

no problem, let me know if u

no problem, let me know if u have any problems
