Hello, I'm new to drupal…I'm trying to add menu but instead I'm getting string ArrayArray…Can someone help me regarding this?
add a menu where?
Horizontal menu..top of the page.
and how are you trying to add to that menu?
I'm using Primary link.

hey guys
Can anyone explain to me why the version of system.module which is tagged DRUPAL-4-7-7 in the CVS repository has define(VERSION, '4.7.8') in it?

i guess it's either a bug or the dev file
seems like the file got changed prematurely before the tag was added…
meta?
Simply ask your question. No need to ask to ask . Unless you are doing a census, asking whether anyone uses a module isn't going to result in a useful answer.
nah .. not meta … it's more knowing the answer beforehand
hmm… I think killes made a mistake when he upped the version.
Can someone tell me once more, how can I alter a core function? something involving phptemplate
That honey pot thingy is weird… Why wouldn't it check the first time an IP hits the site? I was using hte site just fine and then suddenly, bam, I'm suspicious? LOL
?
Yes?
which honey pot thing are you talking about ?
The one on drupal.org
nice I wasn't aware of this feature
bug killes
i guess if there will be another 4.7 release then 4.8 will be simply skipped
chx - Oh, is it not supposed to do that? I thought it was weird but just assumed that was how it worked
ping
the other day it blocked Dries.
Yeah, I heard that. I know it's blocking people it shouldn't, but I figured it would be the first time you hit a site in a day not after you'd been already using it
Oh, I wonder if it's because I went to the front page? Does it maybe only check there?
Please someone hint me how to override a core function…
actually is better coding a new modulo based on drpal 5 or drupal 6? OR both?
how is DAST doing
comick - It will likely be later in Fall, at least, before 6 is out, so it depends on your timeline
every time someone asks when D6 arrives it's delayed by two weeks
I got the hint to code for D6 and branch to D5 :-/ I'm developing for D5 now.
Heh… It'll never get out at that rate
rate +2
exactly.
"I need the cool features and performance increases of Drupal 6, how can I help the release?"
How can i make a calculated field in a node preview?
if () {} else {} vs ? :
we like ? :
if it's not utterly ugly
in the coding standards we currently say that if () {} else {} as the example
Well, to be fair, he didn't ask when it would be out… Just what version to code against
shorter stuff…
chx:
in practice, core uses ? : notation 263 times
yes because we like the terniary
less chatty
file a patch against coding standards
so, we should update the documentation, right?
I hate that ? thingy… I can never figure out what it means
bI hate that ? thingy… I can never figure out what it means/b
doh!
$foo = isset($bar) ? $bar : '';
this , written with if else is just too long.
When I first started lookng at Drupal, I literally had no clue what it was at all and didn't know what to Google on to find out
btw, I couldn't resist .. form build cache and multistep now work in FAPI4!
just commited.
At least now I know what it's supposed to be… It's still hard to read, though
you are nutty as a fruitcake.
if first is true, then go with, but if it's false, then go with second
is there any module in drupal that automatically adds additional tags(something like atlas tags) to all hyperlinks
did that make sense?

Hi there, is there a possibility to make *all* images in stories be shown as thumbnails and when you click on them opened via lightbox2?
Yeah, but it doesn't make it any clearer than if /else

it's almost the same, but it uses less characters (less code)
I always prefer to use more code if it makes it easier to read
Comes from having to maintain my own code
Can I get feedback on my questions please?O:-) Are they difficult to understand, .unclear ..? I'm stuck and need feedback. (Tried it all day, with different phrases, no response)
It's a cool module too … http://image-composition.build2be.com/node/35
Sorry, ngnp, I don't know what dast is
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ternary_operation
DAST is cool but not my problem.
morphir - Yeah, I did say I know what it is now
http://drupal.org/project/DAST
ngnp - Oh… That's the only question I see from you in the recent s/b
My form preview is not what is supposed to be.
morphir - My point was that, even knowning what it is, it's still harder for me to read
pong
Or actually … my calculated field is not calculated. Shall I pastebin some code if that helps?
killes - chx said to tell you that I got blocked after I had already been using hte site… Went to a few pages and then hit the front page and was suddenly suspicious
yeh yeh. ? == if : == else
that's it
I know what it means… I've said that a couple times now…
can you PM me your IP?
Don't need to PM… Anyone can do /dns on me and get it 97.86.125.217
Heh, that's how I get it, actually. I /dns myself
thanks for the response though 
… I know i'm missing something :-/
ngnp - Sorry, I don't know. Probably something doesn't get done when you're just previewing. Not the first time I've heard of code not working with previews
did you visit any other pages afterwards?
Not yet. Got caught up chatting here. Sec
seen eaton?
yeah. It's "The part of core that doesn't ship with core"'.
ok, now you went to the tracker. :p
Seems to be working ok
I'll paraphrase my question. Is it possible in drupal 5 to override functions?
yeah, but you shouldn't have been blocked in the first place…
I clicked the I am not a robot link and it went to the front page and then I came here and got caught up chatting
there's no evidence in the logs about you being blocked…
is there a chance your provider makes you switch IPs?
If I remember right, I went first to my tracker, then to my issues, then to the front page and the front page I got the suspicisious ip bit
It's a dynamic IP, but rarely changes… A few times a year, maybe, unless we turn off the router for a while
hmmm, very strange.
I know when it changes because then I lose access to my databases until I fix it
I need somebody to review that script.
It last changed about 3 weeks ago I think it was because we had the router off for a while
k thanks
the thing is that the IP blocking should be in the logs.
but your IP only shows p unblocked.
I've had that case more than once…
If it happens again, I'll let you know
k
well, you can try deleting the cookie
Ok, just a min
Oh, there's a notabot cookie. Cute
Do I need to delete the regular cookie or just that one?
only that on
e
I deleted that and opened a bunch of nodes and went to the front page and all seems fine
yeah, your IP isn't listed in the blocklist…
you should never hae been blocked…
this seems like the problem that Dries/DriesK had
some false positives…
I've been using the site as much as ever since the honeypot was added adn this was the first time
sepeck got hit once, too, I think he said

hunmonk was last seen in #drupal 6 hours 26 min ago saying 'anybody around who can edit the contributor links block?'.
How do you get the parent local task to be selected when a non-default subtab local task is selected?
doesn't that just happen?
apparently not - but my limited experience made me think it did
let's say i add a tab node/[nid]/archive
and subtabs node/[nid]/archive/one node/[nid]/archive/two
Looking at the SOC list… There's some nice stuff there
if i go to two, and it's not the default, archive no longer highlights
weird
do you recall which page you isited before you got logged out?
killes - I went to the front page and it brought up the suspicious ip message. I clicked the link saying I"m not a bot and it continued on to the front page. It never logged me out.
yeah, I meant the suspicious ip page.
hi
which page on d.o did you visit before you went to the fp?
I _think_ it was my issue tracker page… I tend to open lots of pages in tabs so I'm not positive
one small question - I want to loop through all users belonging to a certain role, is there a drupal function that would let me do that, or should i write a query?
Usually first thing each day I go straight to my tracker and open any changed posts there (was none today) then to my issues then to my groups unread then to the all post tracker
Today I went to the front page because I wanted to see the new posts block
Mornin' add1sun
mornin Michelle
hi all
what I meant was - what is the best way to find users with a certain permission?
hey killes
users and filter by role.
also try #drupal-support
mmm
not what I meant
catch__, this is code
it belongs here
noy -support
in my module I need to email all users that have a permission 'get blah blah emails'
ah ok np. Still getting used to how these channels work.
I can always write a join query, just thought there should be a more drupalish way
s/should/might
hm, do you have the user object?
there's a module that does that…
no
pastebin?
Please don't paste code directly into IRC. Please use http://drupal.pastebin.com or http://drupal.pastebin.co.uk or http://pastebin.ca
http://drupal.org/project/mass_contact
http://drupal.pastebin.com/m2070cac2
sadly in drupal5 I don't know anyone who _really_ knows that stuff
can you find examples of what you want that actually do work?
It works on the block admin page
and on admin/build/themes/settings/bluemarine
yes
qsrv, also if you have user_load for each user you will get the list of roles
I guess take a look at those…
but if you don't need to load them all
if you haven't
i have
heh
but that's a bit inefficient
qsrv, right
not suggesting you do it but letting you know in case in the future
and I can't use the mass contact module, since I need to send specific emails every time there's a new EC transaction
hi!
Hi, I have a multiple value select box that I want to store in a database (this isn't, unfortunately, inside a CCK type), is there a nice easy way of storing it - something like serialize I guess, but I dont know what people normally do?
my god, does Drupal services really store role permissions in a comma-separated list?
I am a bit out of ideas…
remember those good old fashioned "sound to light" things in discos? Well, my monitor started flicking to the music, whacky
it turns out the only time it seems to work is when $may_cache is TRUE
(Mmm, answering myself, given the other thread - I guess implode with a ',' !
killes - I don't know what else to tell you… The only thing unusual I did today was going to the front page. I don't normally go there.
it is pretty clear to me that the error is somewhere either on drupal's side or on the httpbl side…
yes it does
and it's fast
because then it doesn't need to select * FROM permission
but if I want to find all roles with a certain permission, it's not that nice
hehe yes
killes - Maybe put something in the message that says if you're not a bot that you should send an email with your IP and what you were doing at the time? Might get more data to track it
Yay.. Looks like NickJr is back to the normal schedule. (Yeah, totally OT, but I'm happy because it's pissing rain here and I need to keep my son entertained )
Also need to feed him so afk a while

"feed_icons" for the Export module.
Off to work, I'll be back in an hour.
hmm, yeah
I have just been playing with the bulk 'unblock' functionality from the admin user page and noticed it does not send account approval emails when used. Is this by design or a bug?
I believe this is intended.
Drupal normally does not send mails when you edit an account.
the scenario that made this apparent was this. We have users sign up and await approval.. There are about 500 pending accounts. If we edit each individually and set status to active then they get the 'admin approval' proforma. If we try a bulk activation (or unblocking), this mail does not
get sent.
oh, that would be a bug, i guess.
If, as you say, this is by design then I suppose we have no choice but to write something to override this behaviour. I would have assumed that it worked differntly
ah ok.. well we will have a look at patching it
there is/was a similar issue with the mass node edit form.
what core module handles this?
file an issue, attach patch.
user.module
thanks.. we just submitted another user.module patch so I might just roll them together
please keep them separate.
will do
cheers
anyone know where a good example of a drupal_set_breadcrumb call is?

"creating tabs"…? You mean sort of like tabbed panels?
aw. I really wanted to meet you and thank you for the schema API in person.

Yes, but I already met Bjaspan.
true. I just was wondering what *new thing* had happened, I already knew about your überTank
no , nothing new.
in Sunnyvale? I can't remember, so many people.
sort of. on the short, its tabbed anything, but using jqTabs.
Yeah, Sunnyvale..one sec.
then see first if this does what you want: http://wimleers.com/demo/mini-panels
tabbed panels are already available, if that's what you need, no need to duplicate the effort
AH, i like. thank goodness i had just started . yeah, a little hacking and this will do the trick (need it for a current project).
how stable are your mini-panels?
Weird!
The guy doesn't seem to have ANY pictures online.
ok, this is what you need: the CVS version of Panels 2 (or alpha 8 when it gets released). And this module: http://drupal.org/project/panels_tabs.
hmm…..k….i'll eval today.
just this site is going into production fairly soon, so alpha makes me a bit uneasy.
ehm… it's as stable as the rest of the Panels API. panels_mini itself is super simple code. The more complex changes were made in the panels module itself, to allow for panel styles. Any panels implementation can use it.
in that case, use Panels 1, and install the panelsblock module.
http://drupal.org/project/panelsblock
gracias.
np
forgot to mention this: the panelsblock module also has support for tabs.
yeah…just read that…hm…
i'd like to use panels2 + mini, but don't now how much of a pain any upgrade paths would be.

At this point, the only reason that Panels 2 is still called Alpha is that i refuse to go to beta until it has all the features that I plan in.

upgrade went well, but i think it should enable panels-pages by default asi had to enabled that manually. i'll take a dive into the actual upgrade script later this week sometime prob.
Yea, that's probably true.
love the panels module though . saves much much time.
"mucho" i guess is a better word.
ok, I think I got it. Due to a bug in the way we process ip addresses the wrong IP might have got checked.
Panels2 should ship by default with the notBlog install profile, doncha think?
(notBlog == Any site that's not a blog)
What is the best function to display a view of a node in my own custom function that will look similar to what you can do with hook_view? or can I use hook_view inside of other functions ie. $output .= hook_view(….)
I think when it's out of alpha, yes it should.
And it should probably also come with a default front page that's a panel with some demonstration areas.
What's the security risk with the 5.1 version of settings.php? I never did figure that out.
The next version of Panels will have default panels justl ike default views.
How cool would THAT be?!

I'm not sure if this is appropriate for -support or here, but I'm trying to figure out why drupal is making outbound connections to aggregator_feed hosts when I request cron.php from the site
specifically because if it can't make the outbound connection it doesn't service the cron.php one (at least not for a very long time)

I have seen some modules do funny things like making their own weight "module X weight + 10"
but I think in general that is safe
I do that _all_ the time - I always backup the db first
I think that's easier, really, since you can make the db backup once - update your 10 modules - if it's broken rollback and if it works delete that backup
It seems unlikely to me too, but I read a forum post once, back when I first started drupalling, and they encouraged the running of update.php after every module update, as in a one-at-a-time scenario. I've never seen it addressed in the handbooks.
the world is full of enormous amounts of enormously bad information
maybe I'm an idiot!
No Way!
ok, I'll just do it the easy way then.
Since I have a site that'ss demanding I feed it at least ten updated modules today so it'll shut up.
i just updae some document for drupal_is_denied patch. would you mind to have a look?
no, url?
Senpai - I do mine in batches… I'll update a bunch, run update, see if the site broke, if not, do another bunch
that's probably a good idea
I also tend to do any modules that are really complex and more likely to break seperately
When you're a module addict, keeping them updated is a full time job

No, exposed filters are an administrative decision.
Hm. I think I put on my wrong glasses. How do I create a new project on drupal.org? I've got some modules I've been working on, and I'm ready to let them out into the world.
The "Create Content" menu has only "Book page", "Forum topic", and "Issue". Are my new modules one of those things?
you need a CVS account
drupal.org/node/59 to get one
Aha. Thanks.
what is the 'best practice' to set up a node comment like system (threaded, like a forum, revisable)
does the update status module query for all modules or only those that are enabled?
Only those enabled.
cool. i had a little panic about that. it would sure make a mess of usage otherwise… especially with the multisites with a bunch of modules in the all/modules directory
Yep
Probably use nodecomment.module
Tho I guess nodecomment doesn't currently support threading
But forums are rarely threaded
i'm trying to achieve like a question/answer functionality
sort of wiki style with the answers, so people can edit them, revise them, etc
I know I can achieve it by several different methods, but I don't know which way is the cleanest, the 'prefered' way, and how I can link them together in the view
I guess threading isn't important really
You might take a look at taxonomy lineage; it sets up a nested trees pattern to 'thread' nodes by taxonomy term. While that's not quite what you want, you could probably copy what it does.
nodecomment does support threading now, IIRC
Oh sweet!

I see this $node_field = isset($node-$field['field_name']) ? $node-$field['field_name'] : array();
soooo where $node-$field['field_name'] is popilated by values?
hook_menu is the answer but it adds it to navigation. not necessarily the administrative menu (if you've branched those out) just make sure user_access is correct to restrict its access to those with permission

Maybe your "type" is wrong?
would you post that as a followup in that issue?
they do have affiliate links to hosting on their home page - which they should probably remove if they want to be "official"
^^
Hm. That could be rough though; I assume those affiliate links are how they effectively get paid for that work.
I think that should be the tradeoff - to get the official traffic they should get rid of the affiliate links
nobody else has advertising/aff links like that
that line their own pockets…
ok, i have two URL's in my _menu function, and i access my modules my manually typing them into my browser; they aren't in the menu, maybe i left something out of my _menu function to adds it into the nav menu?
my type is MENU_CALLBACK, i think i just copied and pasted that from somewhere - i really don't know what it means
Yea, but why would they want official traffic?
At some point, traffic is a burden.
putting a "hosted by example.com" at the bottom and on example.com have the affiliate links?
read the API.. if you don't know what it means.. go find out. its not difficult… It be immensely beneficial for you to read the API
I could tell you but "teaching someone to fish" is better.. go read the API.. the answer is right on the front page
further question - let's say we don't point it to themegarden.com - do you see any point in removing the subdomain?
Ok, that could probably be acceptable. It's not TOO different from what they have now.

Hi!
i am supposed to be the xml-rpc maintainer until at least D5.0
what makes you say that the hook_xmlrpc result is getting cached?
that's a very good question.
there are very few static vars in xmlrpc.inc
Because I'm getting back the same result every time, even after I've hard-coded the result to something else. It's possible I'm somehow calling the wrong xml function, I suppose, but I don't know how to test for that.
add watchdog statements to xmlrpc.inc

is there a function to check if a node exists?
node_load()?
I thought about that. Wasn't sure if that was too intensive for a check.. I may give that a shot.
do you need the node?
well, the xmlrpc library is now so time tested that only i and a few other "greybeards" call it the new xmlrpc library
it would be quite a surprise if it would be fundamentally flawed
even later on
it's two years old, now.
if yes, use node_load()
I ported IXR to Drupal two years and a month ago.
I do later but, I just want to check if it exists by nid before I do load it.. just in case someone enters an out of range # in the query string.
node loads are cached
I'm not disagreeing with you. The problem was with how I had constructed my test client.
i.e. if you load the node for the second time, you're just fetching it from the cache
That's what I tried to say above.
Drupal FTW
ok.. well.. that certainly will help
write th client in Drupal
so you can load the node if you're checking for its presence
I wanted something quick and dirty. That's what I currently have.
anyone know of any stats on Drupal? How many sites are out there with the codebase? etc?

Wow!
i have a data structure (an array with various keys, etc) that i want to present in a particular way (header, body, etc). would FAPI would be the right thing to use?
if (is_object(node_load($nid))) worked for me
dag. that's a lot. Way to change the internet!

you can leave out is_object
since the return value is NULL or FALSE
good point.. thanks
