Module development and code questions

todo.module (adapted by univie)
This module is identical in structure and functionality with project.module (v 1.86 2003/06/25). I called it "todo" like a todo-list.
So the README-file of project.module refers also to todo.module.
I replaced some variables by new names and changed also the names of the tables.
Instead of "bug", "feature" and "task" as project type I use "task1", "task2" and "task3".
One can easily change the terms using the localization funtionality (translation) for more confortable and appropriate terms..

I initially got sold on PHP when I found PHP-Nuke v4.4. Then I found that upgrading caused headaches with the customizations I had done so I looked at writing modules for PostNuke. I know that I am only am amateur coder but creating a module should not be that painful. Thankfully, just in time, I found drupal. With the documentation the drupal folks provided I was able to create a semi-simple module in a day.

Now I am limping forward with converting my old PHP-Nuke v4.4 site customizations to drupal modules.

I have a costomized node, say, company, including company name, address, phone, email, website, as well as a description.

What hook should I implement if I want some more details other than the default teaser to be shown on the regular listing page, say

/node

or

/taxonomy/view/or/1

of course assuming it's in term 1.

Thanks.

I am using the members module but I don't like the fact that any email spam crawler could visted the site and collect my user's email addresses. I currently have the "Access User List" permissions turned off for anonymous users but this doesn't seem to be working. Even when I am not logged in I can still pull up the Members List. Is there a way to protected these email addresses that I am not aware of? Is there a way to set permissions for the Members List so only logged in registered users may access the list?

Hi, I am pretty new to drupal, spent a few days reading the docs and the forums, haven't really figured out what's the real difference between story and page. Looks like a page is just a story with an additional link that's not shown anywhere? And how is the page type implemented as opposed to the story type?

I am trying to store information about companies, such as name, phone number, address, contact person, etc, and then categorize them using the taxonomy/term system. I am hoping that I can then search by maybe company name, phone number, zip code etc.

I like the ease of adding news feeds with the import module - lots of content for little work.

However, not all the users want to see all the news feeds that I selected (there's just no pleasing some people). Is there an import module look alike that allows users to select from a list, of the site subscribed news feeds, the ones they want to view? I'd be happy with something that only used the user criteria on the "block" view of the news feeds.

Cheers,

Paul
