Module development and code questions

Anyone still working on a classifieds module? I think this is the one major thing that drupal is lacking.

I decided to install gallery2 as suggest in many posts around the place and followed the instructions exactly as applied in the install.txt of the (drupal) gallery module. When applying step 5 I got this error

  Now I am only guessing, but my guess it's to do with the gallery database and the drupal gallery module not knowing how to access it (or the password for that matter - it was installed using cpanel) I further believe this to be the case because I get too many page not found errors and especially when I do get into the gallery there are no images to see (ie through drupal) yet when I visit the actual gallery, everything is fine.

Hi there,

I'd like to add a select box item 'user type' to the 'Account information' group on the user edit page. So, I'm wondering if this is possible and if so how to go about it? Also, if I have to add the item as a separate group, is there any easy way to manipulate the ordering of group items? Had a fiddle altering weights of different group items but couldn't quite grasp why when I changed the weight sometimes it worked and other times not.

Hi everybody!

I need to obtain the exactly path of an image to pass it
to image_open($filename) function of the image.module.

I'm trying to show a picture and to do that, simply i
do a query "select...." to obtain the filename of the pic
that is like "images/....jpg".

If i insert in the image_open function the path obtained from
the query it crash...

So, i think the path isn't ok. How can i obtain the full path of
a file to insert in the image_open function???

Thanks!!

Hey there,

I'm currently making a "weekly schedule" module for Temple University's new CIS department website to keep track of the hours the computer labs are open. Currently I have a small prototype up that pulls a schedule from two tables in mysql here. I'm just wondering if anyone has any suggestions or feature requests before I wrap it in a drupal module.
