Module development and code questions

Hello Everyone,

I'm interested in running drupal and just succeeded yesterday in the installation, which went fine. Now I need to find a module that will give me the facility to restrict my users, based on their "group" or "role" to certain content. I don't want groupA to view content intended for groupB for example. I hope I was clear enough for you to understand!

Also I'm planning to have some documents to be exchanged between the users and just downloaded file_manager.module, not sure if it is the right one for that yet but I will be testing it shortly.

Hi all. I've completly rewritten the old 4.5 spellcheck module. I'm ready to 'release' the module and wonder what I'm supposed to do now. I could create a patch, but there is almost nothing that remains from the old spellcheck module. This is also my first module for Drupal, so I'm hoping I've done everything correctly.

So what should I do now?

Hi,

Calling me a newbie, would be a compliment. Anyway, I am trying to install the filemanager module so I can then install the acid free module, can anyone give me direction on how to do the following:

This module requires an additional table to store file information. I
have supplied scripts for creating a mysql table. This table can be created
using following command:

mysql -u {userid} -p {drupaldatabase} < filemanager.mysql

Hi People:
I'm making several projects with Drupal and I have a problem dealing with Paid Subscriptions or Memberships. Usually if you use the E-Commerce module and enable Recurring Payment your problem is solved. It works fine with PayPal and Authorize.net. The problem I'm having is that we need to change the order of events on checkout.
On my website I'm selling memberships and products like cds and clothing. Only subscribed users that already bought a membership are able to buy cds and clothing but I need that any visitor is able to buy memberships.
So.. now the process to buy a membership is as follows :
- A membership is selected and placed in the shopping cart.
- When checkout is selected the system asks for a username and email
- An email is sent with password info
- The client loggs in and finishes the checkout process using either authorize.net or any other payment method. Billing and personal info is asked after loggin.

I need ...
- A membership is selected and placed in the shopping cart.
- User information is asked (name, phone numbers, email, billing address etc.)
- Payment method is selected
- Once payment is completed and verified then the email is sent with password and other info.

I already tried to find a module or something similar to this but I was unable to find it here at Drupal. This changes can be extremely usefull for websites selling memberships or services and this will avoid having people not finishing their transactions because of payment failures or because they don't finish the checkout process after the email is sent.
