Module development and code questions

Hi. Is it possible to delete from comment module that "

Sorry for language errors, english isn`t my native language.

What I mean is that I don't like typing html in the php print statements, I think that creates a mess. I would rather have a smarty template that I could read in. I am already using smarty themes, but how could I use a template for my module. For instance let's say I generate some names or something and have a template called index.tpl. It might look like this:

//index.tpl

Name 1: {$name1}

Name 2: {$name2}

Name 3: {$name3}

I appreciate the work done so far on podcast modules and related modules, but they're just lacking in features and intuition as to what's required of a full-fledged podcasting solution.

So, I'm going to build a NEW podcast module that can handle virtually all of our needs as podcasters. The features I want to incorporate are as follows:

1. Ability to upload/attach media files OR link to external files.
2. Full feed control. I want to be able to set the title/author/etc. tags as well as itunes tags per show and per episode.
3. Multiple shows. I don't want users tied down to using their blogs, and I want the shows to have more flexibility than just a vocabulary term.

In order to do all this, I think I'll need to create two new node types, one for shows and one for episodes. I'll also need to write a special feed generator JUST for podcast shows, and I need to figure out how to assign user permissions PER SHOW, not simply all-or-none permission for podcasts.

I am FULLY WILLING to do all of the coding for this project. However, I would like some guidance from more experienced drupal modders in the best way to implement these features.

I'm also planning to write a podcast-directory module that'll work sort of like the aggregator, grabbing episodes from feeds and displaying/re-feeding/streaming them.

Hi there,

I'm trying to get a file uploaded with the upload module. Well it's coming as far as being uploaded in the C:\windows\temp folder but there is stays. It won't show up in the drupal/files folder.
Files folder has read/write access. If I use image module files are being uploaded to a subfolder so uploading shouldn't be a problem.
The file that I try to upload is 13k, it works on the image module.

Anybody an idea.

Grtx, Stonie

I am hoping someone can help me. I installed Gallery2 under Drupal 4.6.4 and I originally installed it under my Drupal directory in a directory named '/gallery'... Then when I configured it (after a fully successful install) in Drupal. All seemed to go fine. Until I enabled the block and then the site went blank. Nothing, nothing at all. I mean the second I enabled the gallery block in Drupal all I got was a blank page (even in admin mode). Tried going back to my Drupal root - same, blank page. I changed the name of the gallery directory and the site came back. I thought that by possibly naming the install directory 'gallery' was somehow a problem. So I ripped it out completely - brand new install from scratch of gallery2 to a 'gallery2' directory.

Now I got two problems - first Drupal seems to still think that it should be going to only '/gallery' as its directory for admin and everything. I could swear I edited some config file in Linux at some point when I first did the install that set 'gallery' as the base directory (I don't know, maybe I didn't) but it seems that Drupal is always going to a 'gallery' directory for settings. BUT then again I do not know if this is supposed to be 'gallery' and not 'gallery2'

I mean this:

http://www.thehongkongstandard.com/drupal-4.6.4/gallery is blank!

and this:

http://www.thehongkongstandard.com/drupal-4.6.4/gallery2/main.php is a default view of a gallery2 install...

I have a module with a form_name, form_name_validate and form_name_execute. In cvs version the module work, in 4.7 the function form_name_execute don't start..... is a bug of 4.7? The code:


<?php

function test2_form_help($section='') {
$output = '';
switch ($section) {
case "admin/modules#description":
$output = t("Insert test2_form");
break;
}
return $output;
}

function test2_form_perm() {
return array('access content', 'access test2_form', 'administer test2_form');
}

function test2_form_menu() {
$items = array();
$items[] = array(
'path' => 'test2_form',
'title' => t('test2_form insert'),
'callback' => 'test2_form_exe',
'access' => user_access('access test2_form'),
'type' => MENU_NORMAL_ITEM );
return $items;
}

function test2_form_exe() {
$output .= test2_form_form();
print theme('page', $output);
}

function test2_form_form(&$value = NULL)
{
$form['#method'] = 'post';
$form['#action'] = 'test2_form';
$form['name'] = array(
'#type' => 'textfield',
'#title' => t('Is Only a test2_form_form'),
'#size' => 50,
'#maxlength' => 50,
'#required' => TRUE,
'#value' => $value['name'],
);
$form['submit'] = array('#type' => 'submit', '#value' => t('confirm'));
$output = drupal_get_form('test_form', $form);
return $output;
}

function test_form_validate($form_id, $form_values) {
