Drupal mini tipChanging the name of an admin or any other user shouldn't mess up anything. (All "posted by" info and other references to user name will automatically reflect the new name.) User names are just there for our human convenience; the underlying User ID number is what Drupal is concerned with. |

This is a fantastic resource and obviously a lot of work - thank you very much indeed!
It looks to me as if #1 and #2 are handled by general Drupal permission features. #3 should be workable with the fancy tools of the ACL and Content Access modules – both reliable, or at least I haven't heard of any big problems with them.
For #4, it appears you want to set permissions per field, not just per mode. It's not an area of my experience, but there are some modules that look promising. First and foremost, Drupal6 apparently builds the functions of the old CCK Field Permissions module into the CCK suite of modules. So if you have the CCK module(s) installed, there's a good first place to look.
These might also help:
Any luck?
You want to put the label "Average:" and the following stars all in a line? It's not something I've looked into, but I would think it's very doable by tweaking the CSS. There are several CSS files within the module folder, and a possibly helpful posting at http://drupal.org/node/228271 .
Any luck in figuring out what to tweak?
Sorry for the slow reply; I wanted to give your suggestion a proper try. Here's what I found:
First, let me say that I really like Better Formats. I'd never heard of it before; thanks for the tip! Its handling of default input format, by usage and by role, is very nice.
Unfortunately, it doesn't appear to solve the MarsEdit problem for me. Regardless of how I set up Input Format defaults under Better Formats, one given remains: I have to set my desired (editor's) input format as the site default, in order for MarsEdit to "read" that format and allow it as an option for posting. And with or without Better Format, that site default becomes selectable to anonymous users (even if Better Defaults sets another format as the default for those users). Yet per my article, I typically don't want to give anon commenters the same input options as those editors posting the content...
I'm really not sure what MarsEdit is up to anyway. In my experiments just now, even when setting my Full HTML input format as default, and making a MarsEdit post using that Full HTML format, I'm ending up with the "broken" result: a post that looks normal on the site, but loses all line formatting as soon as I try to further edit the post on the site. (Per my article, I believe I wasn't having that problem earlier when using Full HTML, only when using my lesser Filtered HTML format. Now I'm getting it all around.)
Among the source code of a page created by MarsEdit using my Full HTML format, here's the relevant content portion:
Naturally, I would normally want each paragraph bracketed by proper <p> and </p> tags, not the above!
What happens when I try to edit the node? Not surprisingly, here's all that shows up in the Body field:
Line breaks all gone. : (
Alas. I wonder why MarsEdit doesn't place simple <p> and </p> tags around each paragraph. Time to hit the program's author with a query again.
In any case, thanks for the idea. It was worth a shot!
I know, inputting code can be tricky at times; even using the right input format, it seems code can be terribly "fragile", breaking for no clear reason. Thanks for the input tip; it may help others having trouble.
Test ,e
i want change This
Average :
stars image( its shown default)
but i want change that like this
Average: star image
both are one line
please...
I am looking to create a node access method to answer these specific needs:
1. My node represents a Business which is created by some super user.
2. This super user can now edit all of the Business fields.
3. This super user can now dynamically grant node specific access to the business staff members.
4. Business staff can only edit part of the node fields.
5. I would like to use existing (and reliable) modules if possible.
as simple as it may sound I'm still not sure which method is the right one for me.
I am new to drupal so I might be unaware of drupal best practices.
that's why I want your help and knowledge. on my turn I'd like to suggest your using the best http://www.mp3hunting.com mp3 SE. enjoy!
Have you tried the Better Formats module? It allows for setting default formats on a per-role and per-content-type basis. While I don't use MarsEdit (yet, anyway), I'm building a site for an associate who does. In fact, it was he that found your informative post. If we mange to find a solution, I'll be sure to post it here.
Thank you for posting the collection. Reading is one way of learning. Listening and watching is much easier and fun. So I agree with you.In addition to bunch of Drupal video in Youtube, you can search "torrent drupal video" ... some good movies by Drupal dojo and http://www.baccara-in-rete.it stuff. Some are also listed in Drupal.org
.... yeahç! it doesn't work for me...
There sure is a way, though it's not in the first place you'd look (the Fivestar admin page).
Head to admin/content/types, choose "edit" for a given content type, and on the resulting form you'll see a "Fivestar ratings" section. Under there is a "Star labels" section; that's where you can change the rating names.
You have to do this separately for each content type you want to customize. On the other hand, the ability to set up Fivestar differently for each content type, should you want to, is a nice thing!
Is there a way to edit the text/name assigned to each star rating? For instance: "poor" changes to "terrible." Sorry if there's an obvious answer; I'm very new to this.
Yes, there is a current of "you're doing it wrong" in Drupal forums. Though hearing that, I'm immediately inclined to throw in some qualifiers, like these:
On top of that, I have to offer sympathy to the real Drupal experts who devote time and energy to the project: They do some great work in aiding newbies, and perhaps could do more, but at the same time they want to actually focus on bettering Drupal and, of course, on making their own stuff with Drupal (that'd be the reason for them to be creating it in the first place!). There's only so much time they can devote to directly helping others.
I'll also note that Drupal does continue to get easier and easier for newbies – D6 more than D5, and D7 (I'm guessing) more than D6. For that, I have to applaud the developers.
But all that aside, I agree with you: There isn't as much friendly hand-holding for Drupal newbies as some would like. I know it's turned off some people. There's actually a lot of great help on Drupal.org and other sites, but sifting through it to locate the good newbie stuff can be a real pain. Similarly, there are amazingly helpful people on the forums, but there are so many posts that newbie questions often go completely unanswered.
That's where I see a role for beginner-oriented sites, and the recent great crop of books aimed right at beginners. What the busy core Drupal developers don't have time to do, others can step in to do (and they're doing so).
You hit on one key word, though, that everyone maybe can and should have a little more of: Empathy. I hear you on that one!
Thank you for the helpful Tutorial! Now Its very easy to make new graphics!
Thx a lot
I'm somewhat new to Drupal - bit it seems like there is a lot of this "you're just doing it wrong" attitude out there in the Drupal community.
Not only do you see this attitude in community forums like this one - you can see it in the way that Drupal is designed -- which I think is why a lot of people get turned off of Drupal and they - yes - you saw it coming - head over to Wordpress.org.
There needs to be more empathy for newbies and long time users alike - within the forums and in terms of the design of Drupal - I hold out some hope for Drupal 7 though...
I was so happy I've found this page but... I've tried it and it does not work...
If someone reads this... please HELP !
You're welcome! Please suggest any more modules that you find all-round useful.
Thanks DA for this great list, and other resources you've posted that have been a big help to me in the past.
Many thanks for that post. It is exactly the Drupa tip I was looking for.
Thanks for the kind words. I think there's actually nothing inherently difficult about taxonomy, and that some users imagine there to be more complexity than there is!
Good suggestions. I had left XML Sitemap off my list, as I believe at the time of compilation it didn't have a stable D6 release. I added it to the page now, thanks to your reminder.
This post was very helpful to me. I have been trying to grasp taxonomy for quite some time now and nothing has made as much sense as this post.
