[00:04:17]<mcfilms>Well 6.12 to 6.13 seemed to go fine
[00:04:33]<bigLanky>if i have a view set up that pulls "featured products" and these products are tagged with taxonomy of "type A" and "type B" is there a way to sort it so that type A shows first followed by tpe B
[00:04:53]* MatteusX has joined #drupal-support
[00:05:11]<stephthegeek>bigLanky, sort by that term
[00:05:20]<Kenn_VM>congrats mcfilms
[00:05:26]<bigLanky>i try that
[00:05:30]* FransK__ has quit (Read error: 110 (Connection timed out))
[00:05:36]<bigLanky>i try to add Taxonomy ID to the sort criteria
[00:05:45]<stephthegeek>bigLanky, and that's the *first* criteria?
[00:05:46]<bigLanky>but the only options it gives me to change are ascending or descending
[00:05:55]<stephthegeek>uh..
[00:05:58]<stephthegeek>what else do you want? :)
[00:06:09]<bigLanky>it doesnt let me select the terms to use
[00:06:15]<stephthegeek>that's just which way it sorts.. which ones first
[00:06:16]<bigLanky>or will it use the terms i have in the filter ?
[00:06:20]<stephthegeek>the ones in the filter
[00:06:22]<bigLanky>oh ok
[00:06:24]<bigLanky>that explains it
[00:06:24]<bigLanky>thanks
[00:06:25]* lennart has quit ()
[00:06:37]<mcfilms>You want to show all the A's first Then all the B's?
[00:06:44]<bigLanky>yes
[00:06:50]<Kenn_VM>ascending
[00:07:06]<bigLanky>whats the difference between taxonomy: term and taxonomy: term ID
[00:07:15]<Kenn_VM>errrr no, decending
[00:07:23]<Kenn_VM>errr ignore me, i get those mixed up all thetime
[00:08:02]<stephthegeek>bigLanky, one's the word ("blue") and one's the numerical ID for that
[00:08:31]<stephthegeek>i believe you generally want to use IDs for performance reasons
[00:08:33]<bigLanky>oh
[00:08:37]<stephthegeek>fewer tables involved
[00:08:38]<bigLanky>thanks
[00:09:05]<bigLanky>that did the trick :)

[01:14:49]<Kenn_VM>adjust drop down drop

[01:39:41]<sheathe>winstond: no problem... i think I have a lead on something... just a sec
[01:41:33]<sheathe>winstond & Kenn_VM: After a complete re-install (even went back to 6.12, then did an update to 6.13 with no custom modules installed)... then I added the admin_menu module to sites/all/modules - refreshed the list modules page, enabled that module, got the WSOD... does this indicate a bug with admin_menu module and 6.13?
[01:42:16]* holieman has quit (Remote closed the connection)
[01:42:21]* holieman has joined #drupal-support
[01:42:22]<winstond>sheathe: You know I've seen a few twitter posts saying folks were getting WSOD with 6.13. I wonder...
[01:42:25]<MrTransformation>is there some way to test to make sure if jquery is working in a drupal install? I have activated several jquery modules and NONE of them work
[01:42:45]<winstond>I'm planning to wait a day or two to see if that goes anywhere...
[01:43:18]<MrTransformation>i installed jquerymenu for instance and it doesn't show at all
[01:43:22]* vygringo has quit (Read error: 110 (Connection timed out))
[01:43:48]<winstond>sheathe: No one has filed an issue on this yet though.
[01:44:04]<sheathe>winstonD: now that I've enabled that module that seems problematic, how can I disable it if I can't access the list modules page? what if I delete the admin_menu folder?
[01:44:20]* sam1am has joined #drupal-support
[01:44:25]<winstond>sheathe: Module "activation" is saved in the database.
[01:44:38]<sheathe>okay will have a look
[01:44:38]<winstond>sheathe: There is a way to disable it in the db I believe. One moment
[01:44:53]<IanHoar>MrTransformation: Try doing an alert or something with jquery in script.js of your theme.
[01:44:55]<MrTransformation>i also installed the jquery_ui and put in the google-code UI library

[01:46:55]<IanHoar>$(document).ready(function(){
[01:46:55]<IanHoar> alert('testing');
[01:46:55]<IanHoar>});
[01:47:01]<winstond>sheathe: In the system table is where the module status is.
[01:47:16]<winstond>Be careful, but I guess since it is a fresh install worst case you can just start over.
[01:47:47]<winstond>The field is the status field
[01:47:53]<winstond>You want to change it from 1 to 0
[01:48:02]<Kenn_VM>sleathe: what version of admin_menu?
[01:48:36]<MrTransformation>IanHoar: ok hold on a sec
[01:48:59]<sheathe>Thanks winstond... Kenn_VM: Admin Menu 6.x-1.4, 2009-05-15
[01:49:21]<Kenn_VM>I don't use that version
[01:49:25]<Kenn_VM>I use 3.x
[01:49:30]* bangpound has joined #drupal-support
[01:49:30]<Kenn_VM>I'd test with that version
[01:49:41]* benovic has joined #drupal-support
[01:49:42]<Kenn_VM>you can disable the module by manually going into the database
[01:49:47]<Kenn_VM>system.table
[01:49:56]<Kenn_VM>and setting the status of the module to 0
[01:50:09]<sheathe>Thanks guys - I disabled it in the database and drupal works again; I'll look for version 3.x
[01:50:20]* stella has quit ()
[01:50:22]<Kenn_VM>didn't realize winstond explained it all
[01:50:25]<Kenn_VM>good deal
[01:50:37]* benovic has left #drupal-support ()
[01:51:18]<winstond>sheathe: There is also a 6.x-1.5 apparently
[01:51:22]<MrTransformation>IanHoar: ok i created script.js and put it in the root of Garland
[01:51:32]<MrTransformation>it didn't exist before
[01:52:14]<IanHoar>If jquery is working a refresh should pop up an alert. I just tried it on my theme.
[01:52:30]<MrTransformation>yeah works here too
[01:52:38]<winstond>Kenn_VM: 3.x is still listed as alpha. Does it add something unusual?
[01:52:57]<MrTransformation>but that doesn't make sense, NONE of the jquery modules i've installed work
[01:53:08]<MrTransformation>and i don't mean error messages or problems with installing the modules
[01:53:10]<MrTransformation>nothing happens
[01:53:26]<MrTransformation>they act like everything worked normally, i even get modules showing with config options
[01:53:32]<MrTransformation>but nothing shows on the front end
[01:53:49]* jfxberns has joined #drupal-support
[01:53:52]* wonder95 has joined #drupal-support
[01:53:57]<Kenn_VM>I use 3.x-dev which includes some changes. I never used admin_menu 1.x so I can't comment what is different
[01:54:58]* a_c_m1 has joined #drupal-support
[01:54:58]<sheathe>Kenn_VM & winstond: got some database errors when enabling 3.x... guess I'll try 1.5
[01:55:23]<Kenn_VM>this module should be completely uninstalled
[01:55:24]<winstond>sheathe: Uninstall 3.x first I think
[01:55:32]<winstond>Kenn_VM: jinx!
[01:55:38]<Kenn_VM>disable it, use the uninstall tab
[01:55:43]* kvanderw_ has joined #drupal-support
[01:55:52]<IanHoar>not sure, I haven't tried any jquery modules.
[01:55:53]<sheathe>thanks! that was my next question :)
[01:56:04]<Kenn_VM>try not to just throw things are it. alpha 1 may have issues, again, I use 3.x-dev
[01:56:06]* vegancheesesteak has joined #drupal-support
[01:56:51]<winstond>sheathe: I have to say it is very odd for a relatively simple module like admin_menu to break drupal like this.
[01:57:00]* MatteusX has quit ()
[01:57:02]<MrTransformation>i'm not sure if it's related, i'm also unable to get AJAX_Comments to work either
[01:57:19]<winstond>And admin_menu is very popular. I have to think there will be a lot of bug reports coming soon if it causes 6.13 to WSOD
[01:57:33]<Kenn_VM>I'm using it on 6.13 on every site I have
[01:57:42]<Kenn_VM>though again, the -dev verison
[01:58:02]<winstond>Kenn_VM: Don't you think it is strange that any version of admin_menu would cause Drupal to WSOD?
[01:58:33]* lokapujya has quit ("Miranda IM! Smaller, Faster, Easier. http://miranda-im.org")
[01:58:37]<Kenn_VM>it's not normal thats for sure
[01:59:02]<IanHoar>Anyone know why search when enabled would break cron.
[01:59:10]<IanHoar>I can't manual cron once I enable it.
[01:59:15]<winstond>Yeah. How long you been using 3.x-dev? Maybe I'll just make sure to switch to that before upgrading Drupal to 6.13.

[02:00:28]* dekita has joined #drupal-support
[02:00:50]<winstond>IanHoar: If you go to the settings for Search module there is a setting for "Number of items to Index per cron run" Maybe it is too high for you.
[02:00:50]<IanHoar>But why does it break?
[02:01:00]<Kenn_VM>define "break"
[02:01:32]<sheathe>winstond & Kenn_VM: 6.x-1.5 is working on my 6.13 install
[02:01:42]<winstond>sheathe: Nice...
[02:01:45]<sheathe>so far :)
[02:01:47]<Kenn_VM>congrats
[02:02:05]<sheathe>arg... now onto everything else I was supposed to accomplish today!
[02:02:14]<winstond>IanHoar: Kenn_VM asks a valid question. Is it error, or just timeout?
[02:02:24]<sheathe>thanks a lot for both your help
[02:02:31]<IanHoar> Cron run exceeded the time limit and was aborted.
[02:02:38]<winstond>IanHoar: My answer explains the timeout situation.
[02:02:40]<IanHoar>But I put the search as low as possible. 10
[02:02:47]<IanHoar>and I have almost nothing on the site
[02:02:50]<winstond>IanHoar: Hmm that is strange.
[02:02:51]<Kenn_VM>how many nodes are there to index?
[02:03:15]* sheathe has quit ()
[02:03:20]<Kenn_VM>sheathe: you're welcome
[02:03:37]<IanHoar>where would I find that?
[02:03:55]<winstond>IanHoar: Also on the settings page for search
[02:04:14]<winstond>It will say something like "100% of the site has been indexed. There are 0 items left to index."
[02:04:32]<winstond>Well that is what mine says, but it is working on mine ;)
[02:04:34]<IanHoar>Says 16% has been indexed and there are 5 items left to index.
[02:04:47]<Kenn_VM>runigt again and see if it changes
[02:05:26]<IanHoar>Clicked re-index and it says 0% of the site has been indexed. There are 6 items left to index.
[02:05:51]<Kenn_VM>didn't want you to reindex
[02:05:56]<winstond>NO... Not reindex :)
[02:05:59]<Kenn_VM>wanted you to rerun cron

[02:06:11]<IanHoar>same deal
[02:06:25]<Kenn_VM>you ran cron.php already?
[02:06:29]<Kenn_VM>and the index didn't change/
[02:06:31]<Kenn_VM>?

[02:08:46]<IanHoar>what's weird is search actually does fine stuff, I guess from when it was working.
[02:08:51]<IanHoar>No
[02:08:58]<IanHoar>My devel module is messed up too
[02:09:05]<IanHoar>I think I'm going to go to a fresh install
[02:09:20]<IanHoar>I wanted to figure out what was wrong, but the amount of time I spent yesterday and today I could have rebuilt it. lol

[02:09:55]* a_c_m has quit (Read error: 110 (Connection timed out))
[02:10:17]<IanHoar>I went in the database and deleted everything that said devel. Could this cause problems?
[02:10:47]<Kenn_VM>troythetechguy, drupal will move well. when exporting the database be sure to clear the cache tables, and the sessions table. I also tend to turn off clean urls before the move
[02:10:51]<Kenn_VM>and reneable after the move
[02:11:02]<Kenn_VM>once the database is imported and the files transferred
[02:11:14]<Kenn_VM>its usally just a matter of altering settings.php to point to the new database
[02:11:20]* YesCT has joined #drupal-support
[02:11:25]<IanHoar>I also updated to the new version last night, and moved devel from drupal modules to site modules. Somewhere in there everything started getting wonky.
[02:11:37]<Kenn_VM>ian of course it can cause problems.

[02:11:49]<IanHoar>I know.
[02:11:51]<IanHoar>after the fact.
[02:11:52]<IanHoar>lol
[02:11:57]<Kenn_VM>removing tables from the database manually doesn't make any sense
[02:12:03]<Kenn_VM>and likely threw things out of whack
[02:12:07]<Kenn_VM>hence having a test sitee
[02:12:12]<Kenn_VM>and a production site
[02:12:14]<Kenn_VM>test site to break
[02:12:22]* heshan has joined #drupal-support
[02:12:24]<Kenn_VM>production site to only push stuff to you know works as expected
[02:12:27]<IanHoar>Well, it is a test site, but I still wish I had a back up of my test.
[02:12:39]<Kenn_VM>demonstration?
[02:12:42]<Kenn_VM>demo?
[02:12:42]<Druplicon>New features and modules are demonstrated best in a sandbox. You may use http://drupal.org/project/demo to setup a demonstration site. Demo module is also a great tool to save snapshots during development, or test module update functions and upgrade paths.
[02:12:49]<Kenn_VM>^^^^ get that module
[02:12:52]<IanHoar>It's a theme I'm building. First one.

[02:17:05]<toyo|desk>how do I pass arguments to views

[02:17:37]<Kenn_VM>arguments and views are documented in the documentation on drupal.org and the advanced help.module

[02:18:44]<troythetechguy>Kenn_VM: Thanks for the info.
[02:18:54]<Kenn_VM>toyo: ah I misunderstood.
[02:19:11]<Kenn_VM>best case scenario, use google. I don't know how much documentation is around for panels
[02:19:17]<jensimmons>How can I change the number of forum topics that show up in the forum topic list?? Basically the equivalent of this page http://boston.design4drupal.org/forums/greening-camp -- only not for this website.
[02:19:29]<toyo|desk>alright
[02:20:31]<jensimmons>On the site I'm building right now, only 10 topics show up per page, and then Drupal trots a bunch of pager buttons out. I want more like 25 topics per page, so we have fewer pager buttons and less clicking. But I can't find where to configure that!!
[02:20:34]<JStullick>When creating a new Drupal site on a server that is already running one. Do I need to create a new SQL database or just a new SQL table?
[02:20:47]<Kenn_VM>go to administer -> post settings maybe?
[02:21:05]<Kenn_VM>or use views.module to possibly build views for those pages?
[02:21:29]<jensimmons>JStullick : I'd recommend making a new, separate database, unless there is some reason that you want the data available in one database
[02:21:55]<JStullick>jensimmons: Alright, thanks for the fast response.
[02:23:13]<jensimmons>JStullick: normally I always make separate dbs. For sure. Keeps thing clean and neat. Makes it easier to move a site w/ worrying about the other one. And to back up...... but.... I'm sure there are usecases when it's better to use one db. I've just never had one yet.
[02:23:21]* Michelle has joined #drupal-support
[02:23:39]<Kenn_VM>now that D6 allows multiple databases to share tables
[02:23:50]<Kenn_VM>there is no reason to stuff multiple sites in one database
[02:23:53]<Kenn_VM>unless you only have one
[02:24:01]<Kenn_VM>and even then, get a new host
[02:25:32]<jensimmons>Kenn_VM - yeah, I could redo the entire thing using Views... but uh, not today. Not in this case, right now. I've got to stick with what's here. And am hoping there's a box somewhere that says "10" that I can change to "25". I just don't know where that is in Drupal Core. Or Advance Fourms (cause that's in the mix too).

[03:30:25]<sjobeck>nomad411: the only other thing i have really learned (also with AD) is to create an acct, just regualr user, and set pswd & lock it all down for no other purpose, set pswd not expire, and use that as your acct to use to "bind" to LDAP from your app's. we have that acct now in like 9 places. it authenticates, and can then query the directory. couple other ways to go but theyre not as simple & well & easy as that way. then you

[03:30:50]* TallDavid has left #drupal-support ()
[03:31:57]<sjobeck>so basically your steps are, dumb acct on windows, unix or whatever, binds to AD with this dumb acct, you paste in your query string from Apache util', your app' queries your directory, and returns users, and ding, done. super sweet stuff.
[03:32:31]<sjobeck>we dont use anything else now for SSO. across tons of app's. web & otherwise.

[04:40:07]<johnny05>Muimi: doesn't views 2 come with a frontpage view? you just have to enable it and add the content types you want.
[04:40:24]<Muimi>well
[04:40:28]<greenup>meilin: the "content-bottom" div is offending

[04:40:33]<Kenn_VM>Muimi: you can choose both filters. the settings for each choice will appear after you make your choices.
[04:40:35]<Muimi>i mean... at this point anything is better
[04:40:43]<greenup>this may not be the best answer, but a clear:both on the content bottom fixes it
[04:40:56]<Muimi>well they have Node: Published and Node: Promoted to Front Page
[04:41:01]<Kenn_VM>right now you are just choosing filters. 1 at a time more multiple is up to you.
[04:41:03]<Muimi>but not Node: Front Page
[04:41:04]<meilin>greenup wow, that's interesting! because it was only the gallery pages that were doing it
[04:41:06]<greenup>i am guessing its happening because you are floating content on your galleries page that you may not have or may not be floating on the others
[04:41:09]<liammcdermott>Muimi: you can add a new if you want
[04:41:30]<Kenn_VM>promoted to front page are the nodes that have been checked promoted

[05:11:02]<Muimi>like they're all grouped together
[05:11:30]<Muimi>i could add more filters, but it would just show all of them grouped together
[05:11:53]<Kenn_VM>one method would be to create a custom page-front.tpl.php with its own two regions
[05:11:57]<liammcdermott>Muimi: it sound like you want three Views, create one as a page, the other two as blocks. Then set the home page to the first View and show the blocks only on that page
[05:12:03]<Muimi>So instead of Blog blog blog, article article article, it might come across as blog article article blog blog blog
[05:12:28]<MipsIrv>thanks for the direction.. let me dig around here a bit more to see what I can find out
[05:12:30]<liammcdermott>Muimi: you could also add Node: type to 'Sort criteria'
[05:12:50]<liammcdermott>MipsIrv: yeah, it's a bit of a difficult one, depends on so much other stuff.

[05:19:26]<Kenn_VM>wreaking havok
[05:19:29]<Creativitylives>so they say
[05:19:44]<aiwata55>so, suppose you have two content types, Content content type and Author content type. Author content type has an image of the author with other info. How can I show the author image on a node of Content content type?
[05:19:46]<Creativitylives>revolts what next?
[05:20:18]<aiwata55>oh, by the way, the Content content type refers the Author content type.
[05:20:19]<Creativitylives>aiwata you lost me half way in sorry
[05:20:29]<Kenn_VM>ah liam knows my d.o. reputation
[05:20:31]<Creativitylives>something about content content type threw me for a loop

[05:21:10]<liammcdermott>Kenn_VM: yeah, I've seen you around the forums. It's a little weird (but not unpleasant) to have you around on IRC as well.
[05:21:12]<Creativitylives>you have two content types and you want an imagefield to appear on another?
[05:21:29]<Creativitylives>liam its more ways for him to stalk people
[05:21:35]<aiwata55>Creativitylives: right
[05:21:40]<liammcdermott>lol
[05:21:58]<Kenn_VM>I finally got a little bored with the forums. Wordfallz has forums under control at this point
[05:22:00]<Creativitylives>how do you want it displayed?
[05:22:17]<Kenn_VM>stalking is a way of life, don't knock it ; )
[05:22:22]<Kenn_VM>hard work sometimes
[05:22:26]<liammcdermott>lol
[05:22:56]<Creativitylives>aiwata how do you want the image displayed?
[05:23:38]<Kenn_VM>I think aiwata is looking for node reference
[05:23:41]<Kenn_VM>?
[05:23:42]<aiwata55>I know you can add contents of referenced nodes, at admin/content/node-type/[your_node_type]/display, but it allows me to show all contents, title only, or teaser. I would like to put the author image anywhere I want
[05:23:55]* liammcdermott was thinking the same as Kenn_VM
[05:24:21]<toyo|desk>is there a poll module that works with the forum module on drupal 6
[05:24:22]<toyo|desk>?
[05:24:47]* eropple_ has joined #drupal-support
[05:24:48]<Kenn_VM>toyo: you can use the poll.module put the poll in a block and set it to show on the forum path
[05:25:03]<Kenn_VM>other wise, forum and polls are two separate content types at this point
[05:25:17]<Creativitylives>hmmm
[05:25:24]<Creativitylives>ur using imagefield aiwata?
[05:25:31]<aiwata55>yes
[05:25:40]<Creativitylives>maybe you could display it as a view
[05:25:57]<toyo|desk>Kenn_VM, alright
[05:26:05]<aiwata55>i see. Views_attache or similar modules?
[05:26:21]* activelyOUT has quit (Read error: 110 (Connection timed out))
[05:26:24]<Creativitylives>well personally i just put it as a view in a block
[05:26:30]<Creativitylives>and filtered out my certain image type
[05:26:39]<aiwata55>hmm.
[05:26:39]<Creativitylives>and used that and choose which page you want it displayed on
[05:26:57]<Creativitylives>im new to this helping thing but trying :P
[05:27:10]<Kenn_VM>you're doing fine
[05:27:33]<Muimi>as far as sort criteria goes...
[05:27:39]<aiwata55>Creativitylives: you have been helpful to me
[05:27:44]<Muimi>how do i make it so that 'type' is first and 'post date' is second?
[05:27:46]<Creativitylives>thank you
[05:28:00]<Creativitylives>muimi ru using views as a table?
[05:28:03]<Kenn_VM>set two sort filters.
[05:28:12]<Creativitylives>and hit the rearrange button
[05:28:13]<aiwata55>so, how can I include that block inside the main content area, instead of sidebars?
[05:28:13]<Kenn_VM>the one on top will be first
[05:28:20]<Muimi>okay
[05:28:21]<Muimi>:)

[05:28:53]<Muimi>lol
[05:29:40]<Creativitylives>did it work aiwata?
[05:30:05]<aiwata55>Creativitylives: you mean admin/build/block?

[05:30:33]<Creativitylives>yea lol ty kenn its late ~_~
[05:30:58]<Kenn_VM>Muimi based on Creativitylives grammar, yours is fine
[05:31:09]<Creativitylives>even funnier b/c english is my first language ~_~
[05:31:15]<Kenn_VM>: )
[05:31:27]<Creativitylives>its been an off day for me alright and then i wake up 6 hours from now to do it again
[05:31:39]<Kenn_VM>we all have them
[05:31:42]<Kenn_VM>some more than others
[05:31:57]<Creativitylives>all of my freetime has been allocated to drupal now though so its work and drupal
[05:31:57]<aiwata55>ok. I' ll try it later. thanx a lot!!
[05:32:03]<Creativitylives>np aiwata
[05:32:12]<Creativitylives>ill probably be asking you for help sooner or later lol
[05:32:15]<Kenn_VM>all my free time is with well, drupal
[05:32:48]<Kenn_VM>was laid off mid month, so I have more time to drupal
[05:32:50]<Kenn_VM>woo hoo!
[05:32:57]<Creativitylives>lol im probably leaving my job honestly
[05:33:18]<Kenn_VM>I'm glad I got laid off, those who stayed behind had to take a 20% paycut and work 12 hours a day
[05:33:32]<Muimi>so... asside from this view that shows recent posts
[05:33:34]<Creativitylives>see im working about 11 hour days and i hate it makes you miserable
[05:33:40]<Muimi>can i put other stuff on the home page... like a default greeting message?
[05:33:40]<Kenn_VM>agreed
[05:33:47]<Creativitylives>yea muimi
[05:33:49]<Muimi>Or do i have to put another view with this view inside of it to do that?
[05:33:53]<Muimi>or... what?
[05:33:54]<Kenn_VM>use the mission statement
[05:34:05]<Kenn_VM>administer -> site information -> mission statement
[05:34:07]<Muimi>hmm. yes yes. i have that. it's short.
[05:34:11]* iggyx2 has quit (Remote closed the connection)
[05:34:20]<Creativitylives>are you talking about a seperate welcome message?
[05:34:26]* eropple has quit (Read error: 110 (Connection timed out))
[05:34:51]<Muimi>Welll yeah. :)
[05:34:52]<Kenn_VM>this is why it pays to have a wireframe rather than trying to do bits and pieces on the fly
[05:34:56]<Muimi>Something more than just the mission statement
[05:35:10]<Kenn_VM>should have used panels
[05:35:13]<Muimi>Like a welcome message
[05:35:36]<Kenn_VM>you can add a region to your theme
[05:35:39]<Muimi>ah man. ireally got to get a better grasp on all these huge concepts. When I thought of views, I was actually thinking of panels.
[05:35:43]<Kenn_VM>above the content area
[05:36:00]<Kenn_VM>then add your welcome message to a block
[05:36:01]<Creativitylives>he could still add panels after the thouht though
[05:36:09]<Kenn_VM>and set that block in the new region
[05:36:22]<Creativitylives>i havent even messed with my theme yet
[05:36:28]<Kenn_VM>correct panels could still be used, scrub the views front page and start anew
[05:36:46]<Creativitylives>kenn what if he changed the path
[05:36:48]<Kenn_VM>but for a welcome message it seems overkill
[05:36:54]<Creativitylives>of the views and then add the panel
[05:36:56]<Muimi>the welcome message would... be just an example
[05:37:00]<Muimi>like the home page would have a welcome message
[05:37:05]<Muimi>i dnno. nvm
[05:37:12]<Kenn_VM>could do that as well creativity
[05:37:19]<Muimi>I was just thinking each page would have something different at the top
[05:37:37]<Muimi>like the store page would say 'shop with care' above all the items
[05:37:55]<Kenn_VM>you can add that to your view
[05:37:57]<Kenn_VM>?
[05:37:59]<Muimi>cause i'm selling artwork and stuff...
[05:38:08]<Kenn_VM>hmmmm
[05:38:38]<Muimi>it's just a blog about sierra wildflowers
[05:38:42]<Creativitylives>muimi is the top message goign to change?
[05:38:43]<Muimi>with articles and stuff...
[05:38:56]<Muimi>yeah it would probably change depending on where you were on the page
[05:38:56]<Kenn_VM>nah, views only allows header and footer......
[05:39:14]<Kenn_VM>I'd use a region since you want it to chnage
[05:39:15]<Muimi>you know how flickr has someting new every time. like it always says hello in a different language? I thought that was really clever.
[05:39:22]<Creativitylives>kenn what if he had a content type that had that posted on it
[05:39:29]<Creativitylives>so like if someones selling ap ainting it would have the header
[05:39:40]<Creativitylives>or a different one on a diff content type
[05:39:46]<Creativitylives>idk how well itd work though ~_~
[05:39:48]<Muimi>It's like Nihao, Konbanha, Aloha, Hello, Hail
[05:40:14]<Muimi>so a region or a "header"
[05:40:22]<Muimi>isn't a header something you don't even see?
[05:40:23]<Kenn_VM>that might work too with a content type, though if its going to change based on a "section" of a site
[05:40:31]<Muimi>wait that's <head> Isn't a header a picture?
[05:40:40]<Kenn_VM>no
[05:40:45]<Kenn_VM>a header is a header
[05:41:05]<Kenn_VM>can be an image or text
[05:41:08]<Muimi>so a region, content type, or header
[05:41:13]<Kenn_VM>header is the top of the page
[05:41:14]<Creativitylives>its more of a region
[05:41:15]<Muimi>i wonder what is going to be most flexible
[05:41:24]<Kenn_VM>no a region is header, footer sidebars
[05:41:31]<Creativitylives>footer
[05:41:35]<Kenn_VM>places where you place blocks and "stuff"
[05:41:44]<Creativitylives>muimi there are some problems with content type though you have to worry abot diff pages
[05:41:47]<Creativitylives>and what they are listed as
[05:42:07]<Creativitylives>so if you are constantly adding pages could be a pain or if you have different roles maybe they create diff types
[05:42:22]<Kenn_VM>the easiest way may be to create a tpl.php for each section of the site
[05:42:25]<Kenn_VM>then add your HTML to it
[05:42:34]<Kenn_VM>but i have no idea how your paths and such are set up
[05:43:02]<Muimi>they're not :-P
[05:43:05]<Muimi>i haven't put anything online, yet.
[05:43:13]<Muimi>Just a template
[05:43:20]<Muimi>and that home page/front page
[05:43:21]<Creativitylives>local?
[05:43:35]<Muimi>yes. for now it is not broadcasting
[05:43:41]<Creativitylives>same here
[05:43:42]<Muimi>i was thinking maybe a week?
[05:43:43]<Kenn_VM>whether local of not, the path structure should be considered
[05:43:50]<Kenn_VM>local or not*
[05:44:04]<Muimi>Did you want me to use books?
[05:44:10]<Kenn_VM>no no no
[05:44:12]<Creativitylives>its taking me alot longer to do my site
[05:44:21]<Kenn_VM>you said " my site is about art and stuff"
[05:44:33]<Kenn_VM>thus I'd image one section is "art" the other is "stuff"
[05:44:36]<Muimi>well, when we figure this out, it's giong to be great, Creativitylives.
[05:44:48]<Muimi>well
[05:44:59]<Muimi>it's more like.... "Sierra Wildflowers" is a top-level
[05:45:10]<Creativitylives>hopefully im having to study alot of things css php thigns of that sort and brushing up on my html its been atleast 4 years since ive done anything
[05:45:15]* chrisshattuck has joined #drupal-support
[05:45:25]<Muimi>and beneath that would be monoecious and dioecius
[05:45:47]<Muimi>i was hoping to use meta tags to help users search by color
[05:45:54]<Muimi>or by number of leaves.... kind of like a book
[05:46:01]<Muimi>and then there would be a little store
[05:46:23]<Muimi>where people could buy prints of the pictures....
[05:46:38]<Muimi>and of course, I want users to be able to post their own pictures of wildflowers, too.
[05:46:46]<Muimi>But just Sierra wildflowers.
[05:46:54]<Kenn_VM>you'll get it Creativity: Drupal is alot like calculus or algebra, it just clicks one day.
[05:47:28]<Muimi>with meta tags, do i really need to consider the directory structure so much?
[05:47:42]<Muimi>and isn't the whole point of having a cms to not have to worry about that? ^^
[05:47:59]<Creativitylives>kenn
[05:48:00]<Kenn_VM>I didn't say anything about 'directory" structure
[05:48:02]<Creativitylives>i fail at math
[05:48:15]<Muimi>oops
[05:48:16]<Kenn_VM>site structure
[05:48:19]<Creativitylives>im more of a history/english person
[05:48:24]<Kenn_VM>the concept itself
[05:48:24]<Muimi>path structure or site structure. sorry
[05:48:39]<Kenn_VM>paths come in handy for themeing
[05:48:47]<Kenn_VM>content types as well
[05:48:50]<Muimi>my theme's already created
[05:48:56]<Kenn_VM>ugh
[05:49:01]<Kenn_VM>you aren't getting me
[05:49:02]<Kenn_VM>maybe its late
[05:49:04]<Kenn_VM>for me
[05:49:12]<Kenn_VM>to be able to convey what I am tryinig to convey
[05:49:12]<Muimi>well, a lot of people say themeing heh
[05:49:21]<Muimi>no no, i'm kind of catching it
[05:49:25]<Kenn_VM>because you can expand on the idea of the theme
[05:49:27]<Muimi>but yeah it is late. i should crash, also.
[05:49:28]<Kenn_VM>whethe rthe theme is done or not
[05:49:35]<Kenn_VM>you can create a tpl.php per content type
[05:49:43]<Kenn_VM>and laythem out like two different animals
[05:49:46]<Muimi>i'll have to investigate that
[05:49:53]<Kenn_VM>you have a generic and albeit, overall theme

[05:50:17]<Kenn_VM>there are many ways to coerce drupal into doing whatt you want it to do but understanding the best way isn't always easy

[06:25:38]<Kenn_VM>what about views_filtergroup?
[06:25:44]<Kenn_VM>views_filtergroup?
[06:26:04]<Creativitylives>Views Checkboxes
[06:26:04]<Creativitylives>This module is used to change the form elements on Views pages with filter
[06:26:04]<Creativitylives>forms. Those forms normally use select boxes for single and multiple
[06:26:04]<Creativitylives>selection drop-down inputs. When this module is installed and enabled, the
[06:26:04]<Creativitylives>single-selection drop-down can be changed to a list of radio buttons and the
[06:26:05]<Creativitylives>multi-select box to a list of checkboxes.
[06:26:07]<Creativitylives>You can define a limit on number of entries in the filter options. E.g. if
[06:26:11]<Creativitylives>the limit is set to 5 and there are 6 options, they will be displayed as a
[06:26:13]<Creativitylives>list. If there are 5 or less options they will be displayed with
[06:26:15]<Creativitylives>checkboxes/radios.
[06:26:17]<Creativitylives>Instructions:
[06:26:19]<Creativitylives>Enable the module on the modules page and all users with the 'administer
[06:26:21]<Creativitylives>views' permission will be able to access the admin page for 'Views
[06:26:23]<Creativitylives>Checkboxes' and enable it. Right now, it is enabled site-wide or not

[09:20:16]<ruhro>usually 403 is a forbidden error
[09:20:17]<toyo|desk>403 should be forbidden
[09:20:27]<jscinoz>wathek: have you checked the permissions of the sites/default/files ?
[09:20:32]<ruhro>which denotes permissions problems
[09:20:37]<toyo|desk>agreed
[09:20:41]<wathek>jscinoz, it's set to 777
[09:20:52]<jscinoz>wathek: does that module put things in a different place?
[09:21:12]<jscinoz>wathek: you could check your apache errors.log and see what directory is giving the 403 and then ammend its permissions.
[09:21:15]<wathek>no it seems that it puts the images in files/photos
[09:21:35]<ruhro>are you uploading as user/1?
[09:21:36]<jscinoz>wathek: and that dir has appropriate permissions? the photos dir
[09:21:37]<wathek>jscinoz, I cannot check the apache log coz I"m in a shared server
[09:21:42]<jscinoz>wathek: oh
[09:21:45]<wathek>:(
[09:22:02]<wathek>jscinoz, the photos dir got 774 permissions
