problems with captcha module and _form_alter hook

JeebsUK - November 9, 2009 - 13:13

Hi all,

I am hooking into the user_register form using form_alter to add some custom fields to the user register form which are being saved in a custom database table.

As part of this process, I have added a validate function to the form like so:

if ($form['#id'] == 'user-register') {

$form['#validate'][] = 'survey_user_register_validate';
}

The validate hook fires off correctly, but if there are any errors on the form, when the form reloads with the errors output, the captcha does not regenerate and displays an empty fieldset with no captcha image or form field (I am using the captcha and image_captcha modules). Does anyone have any ideas?

Views Bulk Operations. How to collect all nids?

ryumkin - November 9, 2009 - 12:58

I've wrote an action for VBO for nodes, but it launches my function for each node I've selected, and I need it to collect them all in array and launch my function just once with this array. How can I do this?

Synchronizing local Drupal install with web server using Git and FTP

jim0203 - November 9, 2009 - 12:49

I manage a pretty small Drupal site hosted on a remote server. It's a bog-standard hosting package so I've got no SSH access, just FTP.

I usually work on the code for the site on my local machine and then upload to the remote machine, and I'd now like to start using Git to keep my code under source control.

The problem is, what's the best way to do this? The files on the server are going to be changed by people other than me, so I'll need to bring that into the equation. Is it just a matter of syncing everything between my local machine and the server (except settings.php) and keeping it /all/ under source control on my local machine, making all upgrades to the local machine and committing them with Git before re-syncing with the server, etc? Or is there a more subtle way to do this?

Move existing community site to Drupal

VanTheManiac - November 9, 2009 - 12:47

Hello,
I'm sorry but here's another post from a newbie that needs to move an existing site to Drupal.
I've installed Drupal 6 and stumpled through several forum posts and tutorials and I feel like I'm drowning... :(

I'm working on a site using PHP+MySQL that now needs to be converted to Drupal and I don't really know where to start.

First of all, I don't know if I could/should keep my file structure and database tables from my old site or start by scratch with Drupal? Today I've got a basic file structure:
\
\_image\
\_css\
\_js
\_pages\

Under _pages all subpages are placed as separate php-scripts (loaded from index.php at root depending on navigation).
Should/could I place all this under sites\all\themes\mytheme where I've placed a theme that I thought looked similar?

Today I've also got a user-table in MySQL with 20 columns containg 50+ users. Should I keep this parallell to Drupal's usertable (and use Drupal's user table only for admin users) or do I need to merge these two?

What's the best way to handle different navigation depending on the user types?

Once again, I'm sorry if there's already a bunch of similar post but I felt I had to try my self... :O

Cheers!
