[00:02:47]<byronic>i got a question, i changed with pathauto my page path to page/x, this works finde, but when i try to access with arg(0) on page, i get "node"
[00:03:18]* allanzmn has joined #drupal-support
[00:04:00]<allanzmn>Does anybody knows if there is a field or widget for CCK that enables me to click on "add" and create a new line of the same field?
[00:04:11]<ceardach>byronic: arg values always gives you the system path
[00:04:44]<allanzmn>I would like to make a band registration and make 1 line for each band member
[00:04:46]<byronic>but how can i access on my alias path?
[00:04:51]<ceardach>allanzmn: In field configuration, does checking "multiple values" give you the feature you're looking for? If not, what is missing?
[00:05:14]<ceardach>byronic: I'm not sure if there is a non hacky way of doing it
[00:06:01]* nomad411 has joined #drupal-support
[00:06:35]<byronic>is therre any function available where i can with the id of the node, access on the id of the author ?
[00:06:39]<allanzmn>ceardach: The problem is that I need to create a line with 2 text fields, one for the name and other for role... I want customer to add new fields for each member
[00:06:50]<ceardach>byronic: I wrote this up ages ago, but it includes some code for referencing the path alias: http://drupal.org/node/93500
[00:06:53]<Druplicon>http://drupal.org/node/93500 => Breadcrumbs: List breadcrumbs created from path alias => 3 IRC mentions
[00:07:05]* cgardner has quit ()
[00:07:37]<ceardach>allanzmn: ahh... every time they needed a new member, it'd be two more text fields?
[00:07:46]<ComputerNap>level09: do you have any experience with imagecaceh>?
[00:07:52]<ComputerNap>or imagecache
[00:07:54]<ComputerNap>:)
[00:08:03]<ceardach>allanzmn: I haven't seen anything that addresses it too well. One way I've explored it is to use... I think it was called the matrix field.
[00:08:19]<ceardach>byronic: May you clarify your previous question?
[00:08:21]<nomad411>Hi all.. I have a friend who asks that I "fix" his site. From the looks of it, it's 4.6 and Siteground upgraded to PHP5
[00:08:25]<allanzmn>ceardach: Something like that. I cant just leave a fixed number of fields because I can't know how many member the band could have.
[00:08:40]* WT has quit ("x-chat")
[00:09:08]<nomad411>I'm trying to figure the best way to upgrade it.. Doing it directly on the host would probably not work?
[00:09:27]<byronic>if i got a nodeid, i would like to know, from which user the node ist -> userid
[00:09:27]<ceardach>allanzmn: I've looked into the same issue and haven't really found a solution. On one site I just provided a large fixed set, on another (uncompleted) site I dabbled with the matrix field.
[00:09:55]<ceardach>allanzmn: If you're good with PHP, you could take a look at the link field module. It includes two fields for each one. You could try modifying that module to fit your needs.
[00:10:26]<level09>what kind of experience :D ?
[00:10:46]<ceardach>nomad411: The upgrade path from 4.6 will be long and perilous. The best thing to do is upgrade from 4.6 to 4.7, and upgrade each of the modules. Then upgrade from 4.7 to 5. You can probably wait before upgrading again to 6.
[00:11:07]<nomad411>Yup, agreed, 5 is my goal
[00:11:12]* igor__ has quit (Read error: 113 (No route to host))
[00:11:19]<nomad411>Which file has the proper version number again?
[00:11:31]<nomad411>I've been away from Drupal a bit, I miss it :)

[00:11:39]<brenda003>check CHANGELOG.txt
[00:11:43]<nomad411>yes!
[00:11:45]<nomad411>thanks
[00:12:04]<nomad411>Woohoo!! 4.7.2
[00:12:17]<brenda003>phew. 4.6 is horrendous to upgrade.
[00:12:24]<ceardach>nomad411: Oh good! And if you didn't use flexinode then you shouldn't have a significant problem.
[00:12:55]<nomad411>No flexinode. I remember them being a concern back then. We were all waiting for mystical modules such as CCK and Views.. :D

[00:13:06]* emmajane has joined #drupal-support
[00:13:14]<ceardach>byronic: So, from a given node ID, you want the author ID of the node?
[00:13:35]<ceardach>nomad411: Nice!! It shouldn't be that bad then.
[00:13:48]<nomad411>I guess I'll find a MAMP version running PHP4 and upgrade it there on my macbook
[00:14:19]<ceardach>I, sadly, was one who jumped on the flexinode band wagon. In my defense, I jumped on the bandwagon before CCK was out there.
[00:14:47]<ceardach>nomad411: Yes, definitely. Never do development on production.
[00:14:48]<nomad411>Band Wagons can be pretty atractive
[00:15:09]<allanzmn>ceardach: I'll look for this matrix module and read documentation. The idea is to create fields on demand so I can have one field for each band member...
[00:15:23]<byronic>exactly
[00:15:34]<allanzmn>ceardach: thx for the help, I'll give you news when I have
[00:15:46]<nomad411>same here, thanks for the help :)

[00:20:39]<nomad411>I just ordered 2 new books, Pro Development (Due in August) and Drupal 6 Module development. Can't wait.
[00:21:02]<nomad411>I can't imagine that Drupal has changed sooo drastically since 4.7?
[00:21:58]<ComputerNap>Anyone have experience with imagecache?
[00:22:02]<ComputerNap>I can't get it to work
[00:23:14]<ceardach>nomad411: you're kidding, right?
[00:23:19]<ceardach>ComputerNap: what is the error you are having?
[00:23:28]<nomad411>yeah, I do expect loads of change :)

[00:24:03]<nomad411>Is themeing hugely different?
[00:24:05]* netaust1n has joined #drupal-support
[00:24:12]<ComputerNap>ceardach: not really getting an error. I have two presets and they simply don't create images. I have broken links and the image isn't created
[00:24:19]<ComputerNap>the folders aren't created either
[00:24:51]<ceardach>ComputerNap: is the files directory world writable? What is your image setting?
[00:25:22]<ceardach>nomad411: I didn't notice a huge difference. I did have to update the themes, though.
[00:25:25]<ComputerNap>Yes, it's world writable. Image setting is scale to 900px wide
[00:25:50]<ceardach>ComputerNap: what is the setting under "image toolkit"
[00:26:22]<ComputerNap>No image toolkits found. Drupal will use PHP's built-in GD library for image handling.
[00:26:22]<ComputerNap>The built-in GD2 toolkit is installed and working properly.

[00:27:37]<ceardach>what is the imagecache code?
[00:28:08]<ComputerNap>what do you mean?
[00:28:36]<ceardach>ComputerNap: to create the newly sized image, what is the code you are using?
[00:28:54]<ceardach>ComputerNap: like, theme('imagecache'.... blah blah
[00:29:31]<ComputerNap>I'm not using any code. I have it set up in a custom content type attache to an image field
[00:30:37]<ceardach>ComputerNap: what version of drupal and imagecache are you using?

[00:58:47]<brenda003>sodani, that would be what i mean by working, yeah.

But all the users that have more than just auth role it doesnt show as auth. Clicking on the user it shows them as an auth user though. Could this be why my auth users are unable to see any views? a pic is here: http://dc11.4shared.com/download

[02:08:51]<Bigmack83>that user is listed and shown as an auth user, but in the first pic it doesnt show. i feel like ive eliminated all the other possibilities on why that user cant see a view

[02:13:32]<emmajane>Bigmack83: can they access the content from something other than that view? maybe there's something else that's preventing the display that isn't to do with the view? e.g. a taxonomy restriction.

[13:13:20]<niminimi>my site was crawled by Google but it's crawler couldn't find my site's index.html file
[13:13:39]<dereine>because drupal has no index.html file?

[13:22:03]<ceardach>niminimi: ah ha, I see. Ok, I'm not getting that error on my drupal sites, so I don't think this is a Drupal error.
[13:22:38]<ceardach>niminimi: are you sending your site map to them?
[13:22:41]<niminimi>oh, maybe I am linking to the index file from somewhere so google crawled that link?
[13:22:45]<niminimi>no
[13:22:55]<ceardach>niminimi: Have you used the domain previously that had an index.html file?
[13:23:07]<ceardach>niminimi: and yes, there could be a link out there pointing to index.html, too
[13:23:37]<niminimi>ceardach: if you type in yoursite.com/index.html do you see your homepage?
[13:23:52]<niminimi>or do you get a 404
[13:24:10]<ceardach>niminimi: 404
[13:24:35]<niminimi>oh ok so i think then i must linking to that page from somewhere...
[13:24:57]<ceardach>niminimi: you could set up a redirect. You could use path alias to redirect to your homepage.
[13:25:36]<niminimi>the only thing i'm afraid of is that google might see this as duplicate content
[13:26:34]<ceardach>niminimi: if you use the url_redirects module, you can set it to redirect with a 301
[13:27:30]<niminimi>oh i didn't know there was a module for this. Great i'll try that

[13:42:40]<ceardach>tjazzvibe: I think that is an option within the profile module. But you can't sort through users with views... views only can see nodes

[13:43:05]<incorrect>how can i debug why views can't return any results?
[13:43:15]<tjazzvibe>oh man, i haven't even thought about d6 yet. yikes!
[13:43:35]<ceardach>incorrect: ok, so you tried to uninstall it, but you still saw settings. Then you deleted all views, created a new one, and now it doesn't work?
[13:43:51]<tjazzvibe>i'll check the profile module. thanks for your help, i did just see a module that turns users into nodes.
[13:43:52]<ceardach>tjazzvibe: hahaha... good, I'm not much help with D6 questions right now.
[13:44:09]<ceardach>I did set up a test install so I could help answer some questions

[13:45:30]<tjazzvibe>hmmm, do you recommend any of them? i have a jazz site and users want to search for local people to jam with

[15:00:47]* der_andreas has joined #drupal-support
[15:01:14]<ceardach>drwits: Look through the simplenews module and find any functions beginning with "theme_". You can then override that theme in your template.php file of your theme.
[15:02:02]<sutha>drwits: this is not theming, you need a few lines of code to alter the form. If you are familiar with php look at hook_form_alter()
[15:02:06]* Zitter has joined #drupal-support
[15:02:36]<ceardach>drwits: any function beginning with "theme_" can be overridden. If the function is "theme_foo_bar" you would copy the function and rename it "yourtheme_foo_bar" in template.php file. then you can edit the code to behave how you'd wish.

[16:33:17]<cgardner>tassoman: they'll still have filtered html available, but full html will be default.
[16:33:54]<ceardach>tassoman: setting as default means *all* users have access to full HTML
[16:34:06]<ceardach>tassoman: if thats not what you want, there is a module that will set the default filter per role
[16:34:17]<tassoman>ceardach: also anonymous?
[16:34:23]<ceardach>tassoman: yes
[16:34:43]<tassoman>i think i should use default filter module
[16:34:44]<cgardner>tassoman: only if you allow anonymous to have it.
[16:34:56]<tassoman>arrh ok
[16:34:57]<cgardner>you can set it so anonymous doesn't have full html
[16:35:09]<tassoman>i have bot, and super roles

[22:57:30]<Ricco>I have a site that uses OG, and have tried the OG Forum module without great success. It seems to give no control over fine tuning which groups you want to have forums, and which you don't. And in addition, it does not address the issie of group forums and stand alone forums. And it got me thinking.
[22:57:38]<Ricco>I would like to create my forums with the forum module, and use the forum access module to control access to the forums via roles. Then I would like a new function that I have not seen that will allow me ASSOCIATE my forums with a group. It would allow me to choose and group, and then list via checkboxes all the forums. I would check the forums I want ASSOCIATED with the group.
[22:57:47]<Ricco>Then in the group detail block. I would like to either change the "group forums" item or add a "Associated forums" items that when checked would display the forum page but filter it so only the ASSOCIATED forums are displayed.
[22:58:29]<Ricco>Does this require me to make a new table that has (group IDs & forum IDs) in it, or is there something that exists that I am overlooking?
[22:59:13]<ceardach>Ricco: forums are managed by taxonomy. is there any way to link a term to a group?

[23:01:15]<ceardach>Ricco: use the dbscripts module to dump the database before and after a change. then you can view a diff of the database to see what changed and see how your modifications interact with the database
