Module development and code questions

I was just wondering if anyone else thought this was a good idea, and if so if they wanted to help, and also where we should put the data. Perhaps we should create a page in the handbook, and edit it wiki style?

I'd like to test this out and see which modules from CVS are updated for 4.7 and which aren't. Perhaps after we compile the list a new filter can be arranged via the modules download? Although even just a list would be good.
There are just quite a few modules which haven't been updated for FormAPI such as image_import and aggregator2.

I'm currently experimenting with the different options for hosting images and creating galleries within Drupal in order to make a decision as to what the best direction to head is.

There are currently many different options available each with their own potential benefits and drawbacks.

Option 1 - Image.module
This module works very simply. It creates a node that holds an image, creates a thumbnail, and creates albums based upon the taxonomy of the image node. The benefits of this approach are its simplicity. The drawbacks are users can't create their own albums, unless they have permission to modify taxonomy. There is also no easy option for bulk uploading that is current with 4.7 in the CVS. Image_import is not updated to work with the latest 4.7 codebase. Also interesting about image is the potential of shazamgallery to augment and add features to image module, but it currently isn't stable or very functional.

Option 2 - Upload to Node Attachment + Inline Module
This option doesn't lend itself well to an image gallery but does add basic functionality which could be useful in terms of adding photos to stories. What would happen is you write a story, then upload whatever media to it and then the inline module will automatically create a thumbnail for use on the front page and add the image to your story. This is very simple but lacks functionality in terms of viewing all of the images or grouping them based upon album to a gallery or even based upon category or freetag.

Hi! I have a module I wrote which has a weird need for its settings page. I want to create a table looking something like this:

Show     Order
[ X ]    [__1__]       Item 1
[   ]    [_____]       Item 2
[ X ]    [__3__]       Item 3
[ X ]    [__2__]       Item 4
...

I am building a setup where there will be multiple servers and I would like them to share the same auth. I will have server 1 hosting sub1.site.com and server 2 hosting sub2.site.com. I am going to write a module that allows it so if you are logged into one, then you are also logged into the other when you go there.

Any helpful ideas would be appreciated.

Is there any module with which I can do that:

Any member of the group citationAuthors can create an entry into the citations-pool. Each day the citation-of-the-day is shown in a certain area of the website. This could be used for fortunes, tip of the day and so on.

I didn't find a module to realize this yet.

I want to solve this problem:

Admin creates a content type extended_profile based of several standard-fields (birthday, picture, text-area,...). Every member of the group e.g. "superuser" has his/her extended profile (not more, not less) and can only edit his/her ext_profile.

Normal registred users oder anonymous ones only have the standard profiles.

I found a module and a patch which could be helpful:
