Module development and code questions

A major annoyance with Drupal for me is that I have to search for where to change the settings for each module, they might be in under "settings," or "content," or in the main "admin" area and some modules are in have required settings in both. One way to help navigate this would be to simply put and "admin" link on the admin/modules overview page. It would probably be good to have a link to access permissions for each module here also. Another way is to have dropdown modules menu and move all modules into there instead of having so many under settings.

I've searched and read through the page & menu documentation. That has helped a lot but I'm still trying to figure out some execution order details.

I have created a new module that inserts information into a custom table through a form. I understand from the documentation that I should execute the SQL insert code (through db_query, of course) though the hook_insert function. My form "calls" a data processing node through the hook_menu interface like this:

Hi

Just uploaded to cvs my first drupal module.
Is a module to embed video into drupal.

Currently it supports only quicktime videos.

Hope you like it.

Any ideas on how I could begin to create a new permission that allows certain users to access the node->teaser and not the full node->body?

I am currently looking at adding and additional permission to node_privacy_by_role module. It seems, however, that nodes only know one permission "view" for both body and teaser. This complicates things... how could I differentiate between requests for full bodies and only teasers?

Any thoughts welcome

i get this error when trying to change the settings for my client id and such:

I attempted to report an issue, but the submission is very very buggy.

Hello ,

I have been reading the drupal handbook (the module developer guide in particular) and learning a lot about the drupal architecture and i am really enjoying using the software that so many contributors have
helped to create,

Fantastic!!

I would like to add the following feature of allowing a user to select an emotion icon
for his/her account and display this on the main page in the profile/online user sections
