Hello,

  • I'd like to know whether the update_status.module looks for modules within the drupal\sites folders?
    • (drupal/sites itself contains the 'all' and 'default' folders).
  • And therefore, is it compatible with the ModuleMagik.module, which only allows uploads to these destinations?
    • http://drupal.org/project/modulemagic (You certainly already know that this module performs the 'automatic' update you're talking about in your FAQ's 4th Q/A... Are you collaborating?)

Thanks big thanks for this very useful module, and again thank you, in advance, for any answer! Keep up the good work, this module rocks!

Arsène

I asked modulemagik users whether they knew if status_update is compatible with it. Any answer can be found here: http://drupal.org/node/208928

a) update_status looks for modules where ever you install them.

b) if you deploy from CVS (as opposed to using tarballs from drupal.org), there's a problem if you install modules in a subdirectory of one of the modules directories. i.e. sites/all/modules/contrib/foo won't work, it needs to be sites/all/modules/foo. see http://drupal.org/node/184664 for more and for a solution via the cvs_deploy module.

c) http://drupal.org/project/modulemagic is inherently insecure and shouldn't be used. the security team will be adding a note to that project's node in the near future to that effect.
