[00:00:53]* RandomCake__ has joined #drupal-support
[00:01:08]* RandomCake__ is now known as RandomCake
[00:01:12]<Davea1>hmmm...are you requiring registrations for purchases
[00:01:47]<JBlaze>but i'm a bit puzzled as to where to point the ssl to. it needs to point to an index file does it not?
[00:02:07]<Davea1>in what context are you talking about pointing ?
[00:02:18]<Davea1>apache, drupal, something else?
[00:02:56]* nearlythere has quit ()
[00:03:04]<JBlaze>does the ssl certificate not need to be assigned to an index file?
[00:03:08]<Davea1>no
[00:03:18]<Davea1>ssl certs are assigned to domain names
[00:03:52]<JBlaze>hmmm
[00:04:02]<JBlaze>i think i need to look into ssl certificates a bit more
[00:04:08]<Davea1>ok
[00:04:56]* vg__ has quit ("Leaving")
[00:06:08]<NateSide>in my module ( http://www.drupalbin.com/2281 ) im trying to $array[weight] = 1; but its only changing that in that function, not updating the term, any ideas any one?
[00:06:53]<Davea1>try &array[weight] in the arguments to the function where you are setting the value
[00:06:58]<Davea1>oops
[00:07:08]<Davea1>I mean NateSide try &$array

[00:10:53]<Davea1>nite
[00:10:54]* JBlaze has quit ()
[00:11:36]<Davea1>NateSide, are you saving the changes to the term?
[00:12:16]<futuresoon>if $ ping example gives "localhost" instead of "example" would that indicate my virtual host isn't working?
[00:12:54]<Davea1>futuresoon, no, it simply means that your computer thinks that localhost and example resovle to the same IP
[00:12:55]* Zarabadoo has quit (Read error: 104 (Connection reset by peer))

[00:13:40]<NateSide>Davea1: its a hook_taxonomy in my custom module, I want to change the weight of any terms that dont have parents, you can see what I have so far here http://www.drupalbin.com/2281
[00:14:15]<futuresoon>my situation is that http://example is calling sites/default/settings.php instead of sites/example/settings.php
[00:14:40]* JohnAlbin has quit ()
[00:14:45]* jscheel has joined #drupal-support
[00:14:50]<Davea1>futuresoon, change example to example.com in your path and in your local hosts file
[00:14:54]<Davea1>then try
[00:14:59]<futuresoon>it's ubuntu hardy and nothing i've changed in /etc/hosts, virtual.conf, sites-available or sites-example do anything
[00:15:41]<futuresoon>ok i have several places i guess i'd have to change that
[00:15:43]<Davea1>futuresoon, it calls the DEFAULT settings file when it has no clue what site you want
[00:16:01]<futuresoon>i see
[00:16:03]<Davea1>NateSide, I am reviewing your code

[00:19:12]<NateSide>Davea1: thanks for helping
[00:20:52]<Davea1>NateSide, you might need a call to taxonomy_save_term function at the end
[00:23:44]<NateSide>taxonomy_save_term($array); gave me a Error 500 Internal Server error
[00:23:53]* christefano has joined #drupal-support
[00:23:58]<Davea1>taxonomy_save_term(&$array)
[00:24:15]<NateSide>but it did work!
[00:24:39]* jscheel has quit ()
[00:24:54]<NateSide>do i need to put & in front of all my $array, and what does that do?
[00:25:55]<Davea1>NateSide, go to php.net and read about variable scope
[00:26:36]<NateSide>still get a 500 error
[00:27:28]<Davea1>http://api.drupal.org/api/function/taxonomy_save_term/5
[00:30:23]* cgardner has quit ()
[00:30:34]<ttbailey>What file should I be looking to edit to customize the built-in user login block?
[00:30:52]<ttbailey>I don't like the <ul> look - want to just center it
[00:30:59]* thinkling has left #drupal-support ()
[00:31:09]<NateSide>im confused. i read about the varible scope but didnt see anything about &
[00:31:11]<Davea1>ttbailey, edit the style.css file
[00:31:33]<Davea1>ttbailey, once you find the ul that is used in the block
[00:32:22]<Davea1>NateSide, http://www.php.net/manual/en/functions.arguments.php
[00:33:01]<NateSide>i see, & is a refrence
[00:33:08]<Davea1>:)
[00:33:20]<Davea1>versus a COPY
[00:33:31]<NateSide>but i dont understand why im getting this 500 error
[00:33:34]<ttbailey>Daveal, looks like it doesn't exist - probably why it's ugly and not in style with the rest of the theme...
[00:33:46]* davidstrauss has joined #drupal-support
[00:33:59]<Davea1>NateSide, that I can't explain- can you tail your apache logs and see where it dies?
[00:34:52]* catch has quit ("Leaving")
[00:35:15]<futuresoon>daveal: i changed everything to example.com but it still uses the default folder
[00:35:31]<Davea1>and you can ping example.com?
[00:36:14]<Davea1>futuresoon, and you can ping example.com?
[00:36:21]<NateSide>Davea1: wierd, i dont have an error log, all i see is access ftp and mail
[00:36:41]<futuresoon>sorry i had to figure out how to stop it pinging www.example.com lol
[00:36:43]* Anti73 has joined #drupal-support
[00:36:54]<Davea1>NateSide, is this your workstation , a remote server?
[00:37:29]<futuresoon>yeah it says example.com is localhost
[00:37:37]<Davea1>ok
[00:37:40]<NateSide>Davea1: its a 1and1 server, we should be moving over to a virtual private server in a week or two tho
[00:37:56]<futuresoon>64 bytes from localhost (127.0.0.1): icmp_seq=2 ttl=64 time=0.032 ms
[00:38:08]* Criticality|away is now known as Criticality
[00:38:11]* Excallibur has quit (Read error: 110 (Connection timed out))
[00:38:13]<NateSide>i guess i call 1and1 and see if tech support can get me that log
[00:38:46]<Davea1>NateSide, what version of Drupal?
[00:38:59]<ttbailey>Davea1, so is there a way to kill the <ul>< li> completely and just make it text? I can format the text now, but I want to completely kill the bullet points....
[00:39:05]<Davea1>futuresoon, ok, can you bring up http://example.com ?
[00:39:12]<NateSide>Davea1: 5
[00:39:29]* grugnog_office has quit (Remote closed the connection)
[00:39:33]<Davea1>ttbailey, edit block.tpl.php in your theme directory- it will affect ALL blocks
[00:39:35]<ttbailey>Wow, this guy's good... :)
[00:39:37]<futuresoon>yeah it says It Works! and then if i go to http://example.com/install.php it's definitely using default/settings.php
[00:40:05]<Davea1>futuresoon, example.com is a copy of default?
[00:40:15]<futuresoon>daveal right
[00:40:43]<Davea1>futuresoon, so change the pw in your mysql parameter in default/settings.php and reload
[00:40:49]<guest607_>ok ok i am back with a quickie ..i have added field to the user_registration form using form_alter and am getting an error.. and i wanna access these values. An illegal choice has been detected. Please contact the site administrator.
[00:41:01]<futuresoon>daveal: my goal is multi-site
[00:41:13]<Davea1>futuresoon, this will ensure that the site WONT use default OR at least tell us if it us
[00:41:27]<Davea1> /us /us
[00:41:38]<Davea1>us=is
[00:41:58]* MediaDoneRigh1 has joined #drupal-support
[00:42:02]<Davea1>NateSide, did this just start with your module?
[00:42:08]<futuresoon>daveal: sure, i get it---i can tell it's using default cause i had to chmod 666 /var/www/sites/default/settings.php for the install.php to work
[00:42:43]<futuresoon>i just can't figure out why it's doing that
[00:42:53]<Anti73>When you create a menu in drupal, it creates a block by the same name, under block configurations, you have the ability to conditionally display that block. If I have many menus, would it be faster to create another block that calls the correct menu based on url path?
[00:43:10]<Davea1>NateSide, your 500 error?
[00:43:45]<Davea1>futuresoon, ok so you have a different db for example.com ?
[00:44:11]<Davea1>guest607_, are you saving these values somewhere?
[00:44:30]<NateSide>yes, it started when we taxonomy_save_term(&$array); , id does save it tho
[00:44:31]<Davea1>guest607_, the profile module does this same function for you without using formapi
[00:44:31]<guest607_>i will pass them to another function somewhere
[00:44:33]<futuresoon>yeah for localhost i was using a db named drupal with 42 tables and for example i was using example with 0 tables
[00:44:47]<futuresoon>but of course i could never connect example
[00:44:51]<guest607_>but i dont' want this info in the user's profile
[00:45:16]<futuresoon>because it won't look at sites/example.com/settings.php
[00:45:20]<Davea1>NateSide, can yu post your entire function again?
[00:45:53]<Davea1>NateSide, use http://isi.pastebin.com
[00:46:22]<Davea1>futuresoon, so you have settings file with all the stuff , all ready for a fresh install ?
[00:46:41]<Davea1>futuresoon, and you have apache configured to answer for both domains ?
[00:46:59]<futuresoon>i suspect it's a problem with apache config but i've redone the config a couple times now
[00:47:07]<NateSide>Davea1: http://www.drupalbin.com/2284
[00:47:10]<futuresoon>i've never gotten it right yet though
[00:47:31]* BrightLoudNoise has quit (Remote closed the connection)
[00:47:44]<Davea1>guest607_, so if you create these values, when the form is saved, you have to save them- is that the step you are on ?
[00:48:01]<Davea1>futuresoon, I am running a multisite setup in several places
[00:48:02]* ipwa_ has joined #drupal-support
[00:48:09]<guest607_>i want to pass them to a _create function to add to a node
[00:48:29]<futuresoon>daveal: i mostly followed this http://www.howtoforge.com/multisite_drupal_installation_ubuntu
[00:48:35]* BrightLoudNoise has joined #drupal-support

[00:48:53]<guest607_>messy sry
[00:49:09]<guest607_>I want to pass the extra field to my _create function
[00:49:30]* kthomas_vh has quit (Success)
[00:49:34]<Davea1>NateSide, http://www.drupalbin.com/2285
[00:49:52]<NateSide>Davea1: sorry didnt see that, want me to paste again at the other site?
[00:50:11]<Davea1>NateSide, I prefer pastebin- no problem though
[00:50:20]<level09>good morning guys :D whats the topics for today
[00:50:46]<Davea1>guest607_, then you need to start writing your own module and that will require some reading on your part
[00:51:15]<Davea1>Davea1, I would highly suggest Pro Drupal Development as an alternative to reading online
[00:51:17]<guest607_>write a whole module just to capture 2 vars
[00:51:28]<Davea1>guardian, I would highly suggest Pro Drupal Development as an alternative to reading online
[00:51:35]<guest607_>i know how to make a module and that seems like overkill to catch 2 values
[00:51:49]<level09>I wrote some modules in less than 2 minutes :D
[00:51:59]<guest607_>http://drupal.pastebin.com/d771d43b8
[00:52:01]<Davea1>guest607_, a whole module is NOT THAT MUCH really- I am just sitting here in Texas trying to help :)
[00:52:20]<guest607_>O i appreciate everything sorry if i sound combative
[00:52:25]<guest607_>just poking for ideas
[00:52:29]<Davea1>guest607_, no worries
[00:52:39]<Davea1>I have some modules that are 20 lines long
[00:52:57]<futuresoon>more like a modulette :-P
[00:52:58]<guest607_>that link i sent u was a module
[00:53:12]<Davea1>futuresoon, are you using the cvs versions as in the tutorial
[00:53:15]<guest607_>funny
[00:53:17]<guest607_>http://drupal.pastebin.com/d771d43b8
[00:53:25]<futuresoon>daveal: no, the part i was following is "setting up multiple sites"
[00:53:43]<Davea1>futuresoon, ok
[00:54:15]<futuresoon>daveal: "create the drupal sites" it's called
[00:54:16]<level09>i have modules that are 5 lines long
[00:54:29]<futuresoon>level09: that's nothing----i have a module with no code in it :-P
[00:54:31]<Davea1>level09 is a show off
[00:54:42]<level09>lol
[00:54:44]<Davea1>:)
[00:54:44]<level09>well
[00:55:17]<Davea1>NateSide, did you see that ?
[00:55:26]* dchakrab has joined #drupal-support
[00:55:34]<level09>futuresoon: I know that kind of modules :D
[00:55:40]<ttbailey>Davea1, Looks like it's actually pulling the format from the $block->content of the user login
[00:55:44]<futuresoon>:D
[00:55:53]<level09>used to do alot of that type
[00:56:26]* nonsie has quit ("Miranda IM! Smaller, Faster, Easier. http://miranda-im.org")
[00:57:50]<NateSide>Davea1: sorry, on the phone with tech support trying to get that error log
[00:58:08]<Davea1>futuresoon, so you have a sites directory?
[00:58:19]<futuresoon>sure thing
[00:58:27]<futuresoon>i'm wondering if my sites-enabled directory is wrong
[00:58:28]<NateSide>Davea1: hehe, i see, i have a module that is 11 lines long, and most of that is formatting
[00:58:29]<Davea1>futuresoon, what dirs are in it ?

[01:00:06]* bshumate has quit ("*poof*")
[01:00:14]<NateSide>Davea1: any idea whats going on? if its dying, its dying after updating the term, cause my term gets weighted
[01:00:24]<ttbailey>level09, maybe you know - trying to edit the actual content within the user login box (want to kill the bullet points) - I found where I can edit the css and the overall block appearance (thanks Davea1) but I want to completely remove them... which I can't do with those
[01:00:52]<futuresoon>daveal: ok i just set it---never had to before
[01:00:56]<Davea1>NateSide, did you add the return statement ?
[01:01:01]* ipwa has quit (Connection timed out)
[01:01:09]<level09>ttbailey: what exactly are u trying to remove ?
[01:01:16]<Davea1>futuresoon, NOPE- dont set it in default/settings.php
[01:01:30]<futuresoon>daveal: ok i'll hash it out again
[01:01:41]<guest607_>Davea1: Why can i not pull the values out of the altered user_reg form
[01:01:43]* nomad411 has joined #drupal-support

[01:02:14]<Davea1>guest607_, I am not saying you can't- I am just saying that you have to manage it with some code ( a module)
[01:02:17]<guest607_>chmod 777
[01:02:29]<guest607_>yes i have code if u have time to reivew
[01:02:30]<guest607_>http://drupal.pastebin.com/d771d43b8

[01:13:11]<level09>here in dubai they prefer commercial - closed source software
[01:13:11]<Davea1>http, so each user will have their own group ?
[01:13:16]<lronPaw>is there a way I can let users change their username?
[01:13:20]<lronPaw>my client sucks
[01:13:23]<level09>especially microsoft's stuff

[01:14:32]<http>hopefully that will work

[01:16:21]<level09>great :)
[01:16:39]<freescroll>hi, i've created a block view that displays a list of terms from a vocabulary, but it's displaying each term multiple times depending on how many nodes are using the term, how can i limit it to show each term once? (just using views in drupal 5x)
[01:16:56]<Davea1>Davea1, then what about this- use the profile module to capture the data- then have your module use that data to copy it over to the og node that you create
[01:16:59]<ipwa_>hey by the way has anyone themed the exposed filters in forms to appear as radio buttons?
[01:17:11]<jwalling>staging and deployment was hot topic at DrupalCamp Seattle - does anyone have a favorite approach or best practices reference?
[01:17:24]<ipwa_>I want to target a specific filter, anyone has any experience with that?
[01:17:31]<NateSide>Davea1: still getting the error
[01:18:03]<Davea1>NateSide, no fun
[01:18:13]<Davea1>http, then what about this- use the profile module to capture the data- then have your module use that data to copy it over to the og node that you create
[01:18:43]<Davea1>NateSide, error logs?
[01:18:45]<ipwa_>jwalling: I've heard that its good to have all your developments modules like devel for example in a separate folder so you can create a script to deply your site and in the process delete that folder
[01:18:56]<http>that may the way
[01:18:57]<ipwa_>*deploy
[01:18:59]<http>that will work
[01:19:06]<http>lets try
[01:19:08]<Davea1>ipwa_, a rsync script might help as well
[01:19:15]<ttbailey>level09, OK, so that taught me how to add a little text above and below the exact same field, but didn't tell me how to edit the block that it's pulling from... why can't I just find that block it's pulling from and edit it?

[01:19:47]<ipwa_>Davea1: nice, wasn't aware of rsync :)
[01:20:07]<NateSide>Davea1: 35 mins on the phone with tier 1, trying to get transfered to to tier 2, I asked about the error logs and she tells me I need to rename my index.php to index.html, im like what the hell?
[01:21:18]<jwalling>ipwa_ that sounds like a good tip - see also http://del.icio.us/thinkling/drupal+deployment
[01:21:22]<level09>ttbailey: i'm not sure what u are trying to do , custom blocks based on modules can be done with block-module.tpl.php files

[01:22:55]<ipwa_>thanks jwalling
[01:23:12]<Davea1>ipwa_, with rsync, you can also exclude things like symlinks, cvs/svn crud, etc

[01:24:07]<Davea1>futuresoon, you have apache configured with a virtualhost ip
[01:24:19]<Davea1>futuresoon, apache is where your problem lies I think
[01:24:21]<futuresoon>maybe that's something----what do you mean ip?
[01:24:29]<futuresoon>daveal: i think so too
[01:24:39]<ipwa_>anyone knows how to theme exposed filters to appear as radio buttons?
[01:24:41]<Davea1>futuresoon, what version of apache?
[01:24:48]<futuresoon>apache2
[01:25:06]<Davea1>futuresoon, so you have a httpd.conf ?
[01:25:20]<futuresoon>the only thing in it is my ServerName as localhost

[01:26:53]<jwalling>ipwa_ i am working with a themer to convert a dropdown list to include checkbox list for filters. If you have only checkbox, the space needed can be extensibe
[01:27:40]<ipwa_>there's a module for that also, http://drupal.org/project/views_checkboxes
[01:28:18]<ipwa_>but it does it globally, I want to target a specific one with a function

[01:31:06]<ipwa_>but can't get it working
[01:31:28]<activelyOUT>i have a question: in dev node.. i am taking a look at node_access entries for nodes shown on a page. What is gid? also I have an entry 1 and an entry '2" for it. what does that mean?
[01:31:42]<ipwa_>I think this does it globally too, but that could be modified
[01:32:09]<_DT>ipwa_ you can't use hook_form_alter in template.php you'd need to use a module
[01:32:25]<_DT>template.php is for theming

[01:32:27]* mcneelycorp has joined #drupal-support
[01:32:28]<_DT>etc...
[01:32:51]<Davea1>activelyOUT, I believe it means the role of the owner that created the node
[01:32:52]<ipwa_>thanks _DT someone told me I coulddo it in my template that's why I tried, but thanks for the heads up
[01:33:05]<_DT>you may be able to use phptemplate_formid($form){} though
[01:33:11]<ipwa_>_DT: have you ever themed exposed filter?
[01:33:20]<activelyOUT>daveal, thanks so if it has two entries it just means the roles associated with the owner?
[01:33:27]<ttbailey>Davea1, I can't follow what's going on in those - when I cut and paste, I either get an error or I get the same login but with a bit of text before and after the same login block (as in when you copy and paste this code http://drupal.org/node/19855 )

[01:33:57]<Davea1>futuresoon, copy that file into a safe place
[01:34:22]<futuresoon>daveal: like a backup?
[01:34:30]<Davea1>ttbailey, that was my sample to you- did you remove my vars ?
[01:34:34]<Davea1>futuresoon, yet
[01:34:38]<_DT>ipwa_: this one can be useful: http://drupal.org/project/views_filterblock
[01:34:38]<Davea1>futuresoon, yes
[01:34:45]<activelyOUT>hi, i am using the menu_tree function to print out the menu in a block. How can I theme that block to be a drop down like a regular filter block would be?
