General discussion

hello all -

so i am quite new to web development, and such - i am more aware, and akeen to doing tech support on the server side of things, but im now getting into creating actual webpages... i mention this because for some reason or another, i find it quite challeging to grasp the whole concept of what drupal terms taxonomy... yes, i may very well be 'dense'. so i come to the drupal community to ask - where can i get more information on what drupal terms 'taxonomy'. it seems this is a very resourceful aspect of using drupal [which i really love the project so far!], and there are many advantages to using taxonomy.

i've read the admin guide for drupal, and specifically the part about taxonomy, [many times, just to see if i am missing something] - but for some reason, i just 'don't get it' - i dont understand what the hell taxonomy is, and how drupal incorporates it. =)

so, i tried creating 'taxomony' similar to what is shown in the drupal screen shots in the taxomony section --- i want to create a page like the front page of my drupal install for a cisco ccna site, just gerneral discussion, posting of articles, and such. so, i created the following 'vocabulary';

name: ccna - cisco certification
node types: story

and the following term;

I'm using image.module for my galleries. When a picture node gets deleted, does the image and its thumbnail get deleted also or just the node only? What about when a taxonomy term used as a gallery gets deleted? Do all the actual image files get deleted or just the term?

Hi everyone,

I couldnt see a module for breadcrumb navigation, I see it in the admin pages but in the image module pages i see no breadcrumbs.

Is it possible to do this?

Many thanks

Nick

Hello,
I want to insert a small javascript code (to display ad) in each node (story). Just like I did here: http://www.hostlibrary.com/node/view/123 (see google adsense). I did this manually via html code when I added the story. Anyone can tell me how can I do that? Am I supposed to edit the themes or node module.

Thank you,

Is there any way of having more detailed access control for forums? I would like to have forums that can only be viewed by special users as well as public forums. Is this possible with role-based authentification or do I have to use the optional groups module?

thanks for your help,
