Porting to Drupal 6.x (Work in progress)

I 2nd that. I use Home (Real Estate) module for www.RockawayCoopsAndCondos.com and I would love to be able to upgrade to Drupal 6 and still use this module.

I'm going to try and port this out and post the patch as I would like to use this module in the future.

Any progress on this one? Is work still ongoing by iCreate or should someone else chip in?

This is on my todo list:

I would really love to have this module ported to Drupal 6. I'm launching a new office soon and like this module, but not enough to go back to Drupal 5.

Thanks for all of your hard work on this!

any further updates on this?

If needed, i can work on Drupal 6.x version (just checking if Drupal 6.x work is already underway)

I was just curious if there was any movement on this?

I really would like to use the module. I am building a featured listings for a website. How are things going with 6 version?

Six months without a code update or a response from the developer. To me it looks like this module is abandoned.

I think I'll focus my efforts on building real estate functionality with CCK & Views 2. Does anyone have some Real Estate CCK content_types or Views configurations that they can export and share with other interested developers?

I'm not so sure the person, iCreate is the developer on this one, yet he assigned it to himself - maybe he thought he could fix it, but then gave up, or just forgot? Or maybe he didn't know what he was doing. (I wanted to point this out, b/c if you weren't checking up on these things, you could easily think he/she was the creator/maintainer of this one, based on the way he posted... or else the next guy who said +1").

If you look him up, he's only been a member 30 weeks. Also, he's not been very active at all, and there is no info listed as him a contributor to anything. And what forum postings I saw from him otherwise didn't really show whether he knew anything about Drupal/php or not.

Also, if you follow this link to the module itself, the maintaniner is Michael M. He stated it was on his "to do" list back in September, up at post # 4.

So if someone thinks they can help him out on it, as he might be quite busy with his "paid" job(s), then I'd suggest contacting him directly via his Contact page, and see if he could use the help.

Either that, or hopefully he can post some sort of updated info as to where this one lies, as it has been 6 months.

Hello Everyone,

I would love to work on this, but I am too busy with other paid projects. If someone does port it to drupal 6, please contact me so that I can commit it.

I will double-check all code submitted for bugs and stability and commit it to the community.

Thanks,
Michael

Please take over, Michael M is too busy and your help would be very much appreciated by the community.

Since the developer is busy, has anyone thought of using Deadwood to port this module? I'm interested in your results if you try.

http://boombatower.com/tools/deadwood

http://drupal.org/project/deadwood

http://www.webmasterworld.com/content_management/3767426.htm

Here's the results from porting at http://boombatower.com/tools/deadwood, including this warning:

warning: copy(sites/boombatower.com/files/deadwood/tar_extract/fhsstadmin.php) [function.copy]: failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /home/boombato/public_html/sites/boombatower.com/modules/deadwood/deadwood.conversions.inc on line 76.

I too was interested in this module for 6.0 and have been picking at it for a few months.

I ran the 5.x version through deadwood first, and then made the suggested updates and finished porting to 6.x. Once it seemed to be working in 6.x I ran it all through coder and corrected those issues. In my testing it seems to work as expected from the 5.x version. It is a straight port only.

So here it is. If you have some time give it a test and see if it works for you. This is of course a dev module and all of the usual warnings apply. Not ready for production sites.

Doesn't respect change of Author.
I added a listing and left the Author field blank. Went back later to change to my username, still shows "User's other homes." This means you can't re-assign to another agent.
Looks like it still has a long way to go, I'll probably just craft a CCK/Views solution. Thanks for the port, though. I was at least able to evaluate it. :)

If anyone has a cck content type they'd like to export that would be great

How do we report this user as a spammer?

I reported him here: http://drupal.org/node/788292#comment-2925032 Though I'm not sure if that's the way we're supposed to do it or not...

Which user are you referring to and why? I don't see any of the posts as a spam...?

It got deleted... Was just a spam message.

tried this but for some reason i cant get the gallery to work.

This is a really important module and hopefully someone will help us migrate it to the newer versions. Please!!???

Drupal 5 and Drupal 6 is no longer officially supported. If you think this issue is still relevant for 8.x, feel free to re-open.
