Description

I have installed the short form module and set it as per the README.txt documentation. This created a block for my form under admin/build/block but no matter what I do this block is not remembering any changes I make to it; when I first "configure" it, none of the radio buttons are preselected, as would be usual for a new block, etc

The end result is that it is actually impossible for me to turn this block on by assigning it to a region.

Can you explain the problem in more detail, because I just spent 15 minutes trying to reproduce it, and it seems to work fine for me. This is what works for me. After installing the module, I went to admin/settings/shortform, and checked one of the forms. I then went to admin/build/blocks and added this form to my left pane. I then pressed the configure button, and gave this pane a title, and made it only visible for anonymous users. So, as you see, I was able to "configure" it.

Hi, the above error was on a site with a great many contrib modules already installed, so I started from scratch with a fresh Drupal 5.2 install and nothing but this module.

I created a block for "page_node_form", and was able to assign it to a region with no problems this time. However, after I assigned this block, the following error was returned:

warning: Missing argument 1 for node_form() in /Users/jeffh/Sites/drupal-5.2/modules/node/node.module on line 2017.

The block did appear, but it only had two text fields, Authored by and Authored on. It also had the usual four "publishing options" checkboxes, but no Title or Body fields. Sorry if I'm missing something obvious :(
