Recent comments block

I really like the idea of showing the 'Recent comments' block... so far I have modified it to show just the Subject and the full comment. However, some comments are very very long.

Would somebody be able to add a bit of code which shows the first 6 words of a comment?

Here is the code so far....

How to a tree menu on a page ?

Dear all,

I would like to create a simple module (e.g bookmarks) with folder management. Users can create any folders or items on it. In fact, it is similar to the menu system in drupal. But the folders/items should not be stored in the {menu} table in the database. I guess there should be some functions which can be reusable to help me in doing this part. Could anyone give me some ideas ?

Regards,
James

Taxonomy_context display on node type overview page

I'm integrating the taxonomy_context module into my site. It works perfectly on the actual node pages, but fails to work on the specific main node type pages (blogs, forums, etc).

How can I get the taxonomy_context block to appear on these overview pages? Am I missing something obvious?

User management

I have a customer that needs a hierarchical based user list. Account -> Group -> User

How difficult will it be to tie in an account and group table to the existing user structure.

Account will be used for billing and other general descriptive information for a company.

There will be multiple Groups per account this may be a sub division inside an account.

Finally the User which may have other fields than are defined in drupal.

Would this be easily integrated as a module in drupal -- or would I just have to customize the existing user code ??

How does bug fixing work?

Hi,

I'm new to Drupal, so I don't yet know how the development and bug fixing process work.

I've filed a serious bug, which has been confirmed by another user:
http://drupal.org/tracker/14693

However, after 5 days the responsible developer (whoever that is) hasn't acknowledged the bug, or even commented on it.

So, are Drupal's "official" modules in reality unmaintained? Or am I simply not patient enough?

front_page.module now allows to to redirect logged in users to a specific page/path

Hiya guys,

Thanks for all the positive feedback and suggestions from people using the front_page.module.

Please note that I have "upgraded" the module so you can now automatically REDIRECT logged in users to a specific page/path.

It's very simple to use and there are extra options now on the ADMINISTER - SETTINGS - FRONT_PAGE configuration that allows you to implement a REDIRECT.
