Which module folder to put CCK in?

brucenow — Tue, 16 Jun 2009 06:45:18 +0000

I just downloaded the CCK module. The book I'm reading, Using Drupal, says to put it in the sites/all/modules directory. But there is no module directory in sites/all. Should I put it in the html/modules directory?

Weird simplenews problem

koobas — Thu, 02 Apr 2009 11:51:31 +0000

Hi,

If I add a newsletter using simplenews module and corresponding content type, it must be add some data in simplenews_newsletters table (nid, tid, s_status and so on).

But I don't see there nothing. Older newsletters are correct in this table. But if I want to add some new it doesn't appear in this table.

But if I see this newsletter via taxonomy - it appears correctly.

Where maybe a mistake.

I was wondering if they were any way of changing that?

If you do know how to change please tell me.

Suggestion for translated SEO paths

amats — Sun, 29 Jun 2008 07:02:40 +0000

Hi to everyone my name is Thanasis, I'm calling from Greece and hope you're fine.

I'm a newby here but, you have accomplished a great mission here, I must admit.

Drupal simply rocks!!!

I start my first drupal installation attempt, and I must say it's more clear and scalable than all the other CMS's free or not. I use mainly taxonomy, SEO paths, and autopath module.

I use Taxonomy with terms written in the Greek Alphabet, but when the SEO path is created the result is scrambled. So I have to ask first, cause until now I have seen it, is there a module that works with taxonomy and/or paths that manage to add a path shortcut to any taxonomy term?!

The second question is, if I add the english translation of the Greek term I'm adding in the synonym box will this work?! I mean will the path grab the synonym instead of the term?!

I'm not a php guru but in the past I have made a simple function to convert names and surnames from Greek to English, literally translating a given string pairing letters of two specific alphabets, ex. "Γ" => "G". It's more what we Greeks say greeklish, turning every character to latin.

Nobody is suggesting me....

Modules Sorted by Drupal Version

sk33lz — Wed, 14 May 2008 00:53:43 +0000

To Whom it May Concern,

I feel that the modules section on Drupal.org could be better categorized by each Drupal version. I am currently looking to start developing a Drupal 6 site and it is a pain to have to look through all the modules to find the ones that have a release out for Drupal 6. I think that it would be helpful to anyone who is looking for modules for the particular version they are running. Especially for those who are new to Drupal and might grab the wrong version, considering the fact that Drupal 5 modules do not work with Drupal 6. I did a search for this but did not see anyone else bring it up. I think it would be a huge advancement for the Drupal.org modules section by making it more organized and server admin friendly.

Thank you for a great CMS! I am a strong supporter of the Drupal movement and only see it getting bigger and better. I use it almost exclusively except for 1 Wordress site I use as a comparison to how much less Wordpress can do :) I hope to make it out to Drupalcon at some point as it looks to be a great place to network with other Drupal developers.

Peace,

Jason

Deprecated forums should have sticky notes

DanielTheViking — Sat, 10 May 2008 20:24:23 +0000

If the purpose with the deprecated forums is to shift the activity focus elsewhere, I think that each such forum should have its own sticky post about the deprecated status, preferably with pointers to the new arenas.

It is not enough that (even just some of them) they have a quite anonymous link below the forum title on the forum group index page. Many of the new replies come from users having found the parent posts through search or other direct references, so they might not be aware of the deprecated status and where the Drupal.org forum maintainers would want them to post (instead).

Ideally, that message should also appear emphasized and colored right above the subject field when posting new content or replies to existing content in those forums.

(This is a good example on the need for features related to closing forums, which Drupal currently lacks.)

Drupal.org theme preview images not showing in Firefox

femrich — Tue, 08 Apr 2008 05:50:29 +0000

When I look at drupal.org's list of themes at http://drupal.org/project/Themes with Firefox 2.0.0.13 for Windows, none of the screenshot preview images for themes shows up in the teaser list. (The screenshots do appear when I follow the link to look at a page for a particular theme using Firefox. And the screenshots do appear in the teaser list when I look at the list using IE.) Is this something that can be corrected at drupal.org?

outsource video hosting..

vinceyoumans — Sat, 05 Apr 2008 14:18:01 +0000

I have some fairly high resolution mpegs or 4 megs each.

I dont think my shared hosting company is going to make it easy to put these files up.

But I am thinking that a dedicated MPEG host would be a better solution even if I was running a dedicated server ( which I plan to do soon ).

I don't want to use youtube because I don't want to loose resolution. and I want to keep the rights to them

so, does anyone have some success stories that they could share with me? perhaps some video hosting service that they like and works well with drupal. I don't mind paying for the host.

thanks

white screen

vinceyoumans — Sat, 05 Apr 2008 14:12:53 +0000

I have a site... rsa1.ajaja99.com that like to go blank.... completely blank. It happens after I activate a new module. GeoUser seems to be an issue a lot.

the problem I believe is that I am running to many modules, or perhaps a faulty one.

My solution so far is to:

go into the system table and update the status field of specific modules from 1 to 0.

is there a better way to back out of activating a module? I have learned to do one module at a time.

the other problem is that I can not seem to get the modules to UNINSTALL. Again, I get a white screen.

I am throwing in the towel and starting a totally new site, but leaving this site up so people can see it ( although there is not much to see ).

btw, the error I am getting is:
warning: require_once(modules/geouser/geouser.inc): failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /hsphere/local/home/vyoumans/rsa2.ajaja99.com/sites/all/modules/geouser/geouser.module on line 10.

I have run CRON, I have done an update.

so... recap... my questions:
1... is there a way to figure out if I am just running out of hosting resources?
2... Is there a better way to back out of module installs?
3... Is there a way to manually uninstall modules, so I can repair stuff in the future?

thanks

Bookmark module for drupal.org

bneel — Mon, 17 Mar 2008 06:21:45 +0000

Hi,
Sometimes we are looking around for new modules. Several times, I saw very a good module, but i did't want to install it right now and after several weeks, I didn't remember the module name or the module function if I downloaded it.
A very good feature could be to use the bookmark module to track those module.
This could be true for node too.
