Possible duplicate of content_multigroup

Mon, 22/12/2008 - 2:18pm

Hi there.

This is a great -and much needed -module.

I'm open to correction on this, but there is a possible duplication of purpose with
content_multigroup module.
This module comes packaged with CCK, but omits an .info file deliberately, as it is still experimental.
The feature is discussed at
http://drupal.org/node/119102
including a mention of flexifield at http://drupal.org/node/119102#comment-952842

I've used that, with a few hiccups, mainly with filefield or imagefield files.

I've also used this module flexifield back in Drupal 5, again with a few hiccups.

So basically is there a different between the two?

Regards
Alan
PS I've noted the slew of modules you released in the last few days.
Impressive work - hopefully much of it will hit Drupal core.

How to automatically set Node title on CSV import.

Fri, 12/12/2008 - 11:01am

Hi Alex,
Great module.

I'm using it to do an import of some data supplied in CSV.

It's working really well - I can map all the CCK fields to items in the imported file.

However, I can't seem to set the node title on import - it always remains blank.

Ideally, I need to map it to one of the fields in the CSV file,
but it isn't listed as item in the list of mappers available.

Node title doesn't appear in the dropdowns at all, to let me map an item from the import to it.

[Under the 'Edit mapping 'title' is shown as an element available,
but as I understand it, that 'title' is the 'title of the feed'. It is some item available as a 'source' that i could map to a field in the drop down.]

On the feed node [the container node -not the imported nodes], under Feed ->Parsers->CVS parser, there is a textfield 'Rule for building the title field'.
I've tried a few things there 'FIELDNAME1', 'jobname' [which is the title of the header in the CSV file] to no avail.

Lastly, I've tried
http://drupal.org/project/auto_nodetitle
but again, it doesn't seem to apply the rule on import.

Any tips appreciated,
Thanks again

Override Javascript per Tabset

Mon, 20/10/2008 - 1:49pm

Following on from #323676: Themeing per tabset,
It would be useful to have different javascript properties per tabset level.

I could use a "rotate" transition on one particular tabset.

There must be a way to do this by adding some javascript, at theme or custom module layer - but I haven't worked it out just yet.

Themeing per tabset

Mon, 20/10/2008 - 1:44pm

The default theme function
function theme_tabset($element)
seems to allow themeing only for ALL tabsets.

It would be great is themeing could be at tabset level.

For example, on some tabs, I prefer the tabs at the bottom.

Datestamps are inserted with wrong value (about -4 hours)

Thu, 16/10/2008 - 8:27pm

SUMMARY:
When Datestamp values are inserted in the DB, it's not the same value as the input.

DETAILS:
I've added a Datestamp field to my story nodes. I'm accepting dates in this format: YYYY-MM-DD for every story.
If I input "2008/10/16", it displays this date exactly - no problem.
But in the database, in the content_type_story table, I get a UNIX timestamp value of 1224115200. If I convert that back to a normal date, I get the wrong date:
date("Y-m-d H:i:s", 1224115200);
returns: 2008-10-15 20:00:00

Which breaks my Calendar views, as all nodes appear on the previous day. I've set my site to UTC or EDT, same problem.

SOLUTION?
At this point, I don't really care how this can be fixed. Unless there's a settings error on my site, I'd just like to know where in the code the data gets inserted into the DB - I will manually add ~4 hours to every date. I've looked through the code but I could not find it.

Does it have something to do with the timezone or local time on the server? Is it a PHP thing, a Linux thing, a CCK thing or a MySQL thing? As I said, I'm just looking for a quick hack to artificially increment all timestamps by 4 hours.

no template variables listed

Sat, 11/10/2008 - 11:55am

I have only the devel module enabled of the bundled modules, and default settings. Theme developer works fine except no template variables or function arguments are ever listed under their headings.

log reports devel_themer/variables not found

Currently true for 6.5 and devel 6.x-1.12, but this was true in 6.4 and previous devel versions.

No one else seems to have this issue. My shared hosting does have zend optimizer enabled, but this is not the issue reported for that. Could that be what's keeping this feature from working? If not, anyone have a clue?

create the text on the tabs on the node level?

Thu, 09/10/2008 - 3:18pm

Hey

I have a website with hundreds of pages. On all the pages I use tabs (created with the module Fieldgroup Tabs). I works okay, BUT ..... everytime I create a new page, I have to create a new content type too. That's a pain in the a..

The reason why I have to create a new content type, every time I create a new page, is this: The way to put text on a tab is to label the fieldgroupnames with that text. So if I want to create different text on my tabs, from page to page, I need to use different content types, so the content type can have different fieldgroupnames ....

Is there another way (or another module) where I can create the text on the tabs on the node level? Then perhaps I could have just ONE content type, and then add the tab-text on the nodes instead.

Thank you in advance

Ireland not available as option in list of countries.

Sun, 21/09/2008 - 1:33pm

Hi support,
While updating my profile and association membership, I noticed that Ireland is not available as an option when selecting countries.
It is under the 'individual membership' section.
Can that please be rectified?

Also, somehow I am now listed twice in the directory.
Not sure how that happened.

Alan

Export Attributes

Fri, 19/09/2008 - 3:37pm

Hi Ryan et all,
I'm using this to export orders into CSV.

As far as I can see, attributes aren't exported.
I have a textfield attribute on one of my products to allow some extra deatil on that product to be added.
However, I don't see this detail on the exported report.

Am I doing something wrong?

Would it be a difficult job to add that im?
Where would I look to start?

Regards
Alan

Drop (or restrict) IE6 support

Mon, 15/09/2008 - 8:33pm

This came up in the redesign group, but I don't think it's very relevant to that. Might be worth testing the water with a core issue though.

I don't know how much practical impact this would have in terms of D7 development, but something like #102743: new forum icons maybe have a different outcome depending on whether we support IE6 or not due to PNG transparency, also some cross-browser issues with jQuery and themes. So we could agree in principle to drop IE6 support in icons/js/themes, then on a per-case basis decide what exactly that means.

It seems in the spirit of PHP5.2 MySQL5 and PostgreSQL8, but probably a bit more contentious.

Of course individual sites can easily support IE6 even if core doesn't, by using iepngfix, or their own theme etc. We already have progressive enhancement in at least one place - sticky tableheaders simply don't work in IE6, so there's a precedent. Of course we don't know when D7 will be released, or to what extent IE6 will still be in play when that happens, so this might need to be 'postponed' and revisited when and if it's a practical barrier to improvements.

Too much recursion in drupalforfirebug.module on line 346

Wed, 03/09/2008 - 11:54am

I ran into the following when enabling the Drupal for Firebug module:

Fatal error: Nesting level too deep - recursive dependency? in /home/mih/www/drupal6/sites/all/modules/contrib/drupalforfirebug/drupalforfirebug.module on line 346

I'll try to dig a bit more into it to see if I can reproduce it.

Allow import of multiple .cif files instead of one at a time

Tue, 02/09/2008 - 2:20am

This is an issue that has been raised on and off for a while: It's a pain to import .cif files one at a time, especially when you are trying to import a lot of them.

The solution is a tiny patch to allow multiple selects on the country select box (1 line) then a foreach statement to loop over the selections (1 line). Then a bunch of spaces to indent things inside the loop properly.
