You see the adjustable doo-hickey in this site's the comment textarea? How do you get that to work?

The only way I can get that feature is by turning on the TinyMCE texteditor but I don't want to do that. It's easier for my users to just stick to the old "HTML TAGS ALLOWED" routine. Yet, not having to customize the textarea rocks.

So ... ahem ... HELP! Tell me how to do this!

I have a baseline drupal site, with a plain theme. Now, I need to theme this site for several different sites and was looking for a better way of dealing with the template.php file for each theme. I could certainly search/replace ("theme_" replaced by "newtheme_") template.php for each theme, but I'd rather have a default set of theming functions that each site falls back on.

Is this possible?

Thinking about it, seems like I'd have to put another layer ontop of the default drupal theme functions.

Thanks.

Hey there,

New to Drupal and CMS in general. Have to say I think that its pretty sweet. So I playing around with it. At the moment I'm trying to make the front page display the newest users instead of the various stories.

I'm thinking that I have to change something in page.tpl.php. As far as I can see I need to change $content. I'm thinking of creting a custom SQL statement that queries the database for the users. But will this generate various pages automatically as the default. For example first ten newest users will be on page 1 then the next ten on page 2 etc.

Hi,

Can anyone tell me how to adjust the width of the left sidebar on the BlueMarine theme?

I expected that changing the width here would work:

#sidebar-left, #sidebar-right {
background-color: #ddd;
width: 16em;
/* padding in px not ex because IE messes up 100% width tables otherwise */
padding: 10px;
vertical-align: top;
}
