Problem module, function preprocess() with blocks
Hello,
I created a module that displays 4 blocks with a single node_load ().
I use the function mymodule_preprocess() to load the node in my 4 blocks.
The problem is that this function works all the time, should it only works when I'm in a node of type "A".
How to achieve this?
The complete module:
<?php
// $Id$
/**
* Permissions du module
* @return array Tableau de permissions valides pour le module helloworld
*/
function modele_2r_perm() {
return array('access modele_2r content');
} // function mon_module_perm()
/**
* Implémentation de hook_block
*/
function modele_2r_block($op = 'list', $delta = 0, $edit = array ()) {
switch($op) {
case 'list':
return array('modele_2r_presentation_block'=>array('info'=>'Modele 2R: Block Presentation'), 'modele_2r_fiche_technique_block'=>array('info'=>'Modele 2R: Block Fiche Technique'), 'modele_2r_coloris_block'=>array('info'=>'Modele 2R: Block Coloris'), 'modele_2r_galerie_photos_block'=>array('info'=>'Modele 2R: Block Galerie photos'), 'modele_2r_argus_block'=>array('info'=>'Modele 2R: Block Argus'));
case 'view': {
if ($delta=='modele_2r_presentation_block') {
return array(
'subject'=>'Presentation du modele',
'content'=>theme('modele_2r_presentation_block', $node));
}
Creating a self screening decision support tool

How to delete "Install Drupal web hosting" in Garland theme

Looking for modules
Hi!
I believe that I am what is termed a “newbie” on the Internet, so forgive me if I use plain English. I don’t understand half of the terms used on sites like this. But I am learning.
As a response to the recent NHS scandals I have installed a Drupal site called National Health Sentinel, http://nhsentinel.org I will be inviting people with serious complaints to create a blog publicising their grievances.
I have five problems, can anyone help?
1. I do not want individuals referred to by name. Is there a module that can recognise real names and prevent their use on a Drupal blog?
2. Is it possible to automatically include a disclaimer in the header of each blog without having to edit each one individually?
3. Is it possible to create a link from each blog to a forum section where people can comment on that particular issue?
4. I would like authenticated users to be able to register their dissatisfaction with the substance of any blog or forum comment. What I have in mind is something like a check box that could be ticked by dissatisfied users and when the total of dissatisfied users reaches a set number, the administrator is alerted to the fact. Is there such a module?
5. Are there any publications the equivalent to “Drupal for idiots”, or a list of Drupal terms explained in plain English?
Thank you for taking the time to read this post.

Model Agency
Hi
I am just starting with Drupal. I have tried it about 2 years ago but then switched to Joomla and Wordpress.
Now I am interesting in doing a project and curious if Drupal is the best way to go.
The project is a modeling agency, where models can register, log in, update their measurements and portfolio images.
The administrator will be able to control all these models.
Is there any plugins for Drupal or a combination of them that can achieve this?
Any info in the right direction would be appreciated.
To get an idea of what I am trying to achieve is something similar to this:

PHP Variables
Hello,
To start I must say that I'm new to Drupal so I don't know much about it.
I'm making a centered website with three big menu buttons in the center, and above one big header image. When you click on one of the menu items, content will drop down. I need about 6 content places.
In order to make this kind of website, I think that I need to edit the base code of Drupal, since I don't see anything in Drupal for that type of website.
I looked in the page.tpl.php, and replaced (parts) of the code with my website code. (it was already made before, I just need to integrate it into Drupal) But ofcourse, this didn't work since I have only one $content php variable for all the content. The other problem is that I also had to edit style.css, but than the Administration panel became almost not use able.
So I thought that I could make PHP check the URL on what page it was, and when it was at some admin page, it would bring back the old Garland style, and not my custom one. Ofcourse I had to know where did Drupal initialize the $styles variable.
The other problem is that i have six content spaces, so I will need six variables. I also need to know where the $content variable is initialized.

User Permissions
Im just starting out in Drupal.
Am I able to do the following :
I have 3 pages on the website.
I also have 3 other users setup, who all have permissions to be able to see the frontend, but cannot make any changes.
I would like to set this up so that when they log in, each user will see ONLY the page relevent to them,
ie, when they log in,
user 1 will only see page 1 (and cannot view the other pages)
user 2 will only see page 2 (and cannot view the other pages)
user 3 will only see page 3 (and cannot view the other pages)
Can I achieve this with Drupal ?
Thanks !
Inserting a block inside a "static" page
I'm currently trying to learn to use Drupal and I have one question related to it which is important for me (and would like an answer before dwelling deeper into it) and where I haven't found answer yet (perhaps there's a module etc, but haven't found it yet).
Lets say that I have an main page for articles in my website so I create a content with content type Page for it and have it displayed in primary links. But what I'd like to have is a list of the latest articles in that page along with the static content.
As far as I understand I can create a view with Views-module to display the latest content from a content type "Articles" (if I'd create it). Is there any way to define a block to be inside the content page so I could actually display this view in the main page for my articles?
I probably could create own blocks into template for this, lets say header block right above the content or right sidebar just right to content (so it wouldn't be display if there wan't anything for it)? But is there any other solution for this, which would let me to display this kind of content listings inside of a content item?
Any help and ideas are appreciated.

Adding a theme - before or after setting up site?
I am just starting out and have been looking at some of the themes and they look great. Now what I normally do is setup a site using a default theme (This would be true when using other software). As this would be my firs project using Drupal I was planning on doing the same. So once I have completed my site using Drupal default theme and then add one of the other themes would this mean I would have to do most of the work over on my site. I know when I use SMF and you add themes it just changes what you already have to that themes css. However looking at this setup it struck me that there may be more to this as you have complete different formatting with column , menus and content being completely different to the default. So would I be better off installing the basic default and then installing my theme and building my site up from that?
New website
Hello!
I wasn't sure where to put this, so I thought I'd post it here as it seemed appropriate enough. I'm looking for some good advice on how to approach this assignment I've gotten my hands on.
So, here's the deal!
My case is that I need to create a new website for a small company that I'm working for. I'm skilled enough with (X)HTML, CSS, graphics design and all that, but the website needs a Newsletter as well as a discussion Forum and an associated Blog.
Also, some other functionality will be added to mostly improve commercialization/marketing of the website as well as Accessibility, Usability and some Social Bookmarking and stuff.
Now, adding a PHP forum and a WordPress blog is sorta straightforward enough since I plan on just linking to both of them from the main website unto their own separate sub-domains (ie., forum.mywebsite.com and blog.mywebsite.com) and simply installing WordPress and phpBB, respectively.
My problem will likely be how to add the Newsletter feature?
Right now, they have a website done with TYPO3 (an OpenSource CMS) and a newsletter module associated with their template (a default template that doesn't show off their company brand, whatsoever, which is what we also want to change, of course) and it seems to work fine.
Book recommendation: analysis phase best practices - needs analysis, database layout, questions to ask
This will be the year of Drupal for me. I've already bought the following books:
- Using Drupal
- Drupal 6 Themes
- Drupal 6 Javascript & jQuery
- Front-end Drupal
I'm ready to begin my first project, converting a small site I made years ago - I have intimate knowledge of the functionality & needs met by the existing site.
I'm quite leery of just jumping in and building the site in an ad-hoc manner. Structural decisions made early on may be tough to change afterwards. We're talking databases and other scary entities! <grin> I feel I should read one more book to guide me in that initial analysis phase: how do I map project requirements to Drupal concepts? What are best practices before I even touch the Admin panel for the first time? What questions should I ask the client?
Please recommend a Drupal book addressing best practices in the analysis phase. Thanks!
Help me talk my client out of this requirement
I am a Drupal newbie whose prospective client wants a new website for his health club. Currently that client maintains his membership database on his own server - without a website - and uses it to track member info.
His existing mySQL database contains each club member's name and billing info (and note that all family members can use a single club membership so all family members' names and credentials are listed as well under the one family account), and other info such as what heath club classes and facilities that he/she or the family members are signed up and authorized for.
I am guessing that I could create a Drupal website that would contain family profiles for login authorization as well as the other membership info that my client currently maintains "offline" on his mySQL database (feel free to send me suggestions as to what Drupal modules to use). However, my client is hesitant to "let go" of his membership database and wants me instead to build a Drupal site on a separate ISP that will remotely read his membership database for validating login credentials and family and health club class schedules.
In addition to login authorization, this "remote" process would also include having Drupal read the remote database when displaying various web pages - such as those that list who has signed up this week for the aerobics class or the yoga class.
Will Drupal Do this for me
Well before I start using Drupal I would like to find out if it will work for what I have in mind, hope this is in the correct area. Anyway I need a web site that is going to be a bit multifunctional. It will need to be able to do the following.
1. Firstly I need members to be able to post articles in the different area I will have. They would also need to be able to attach files to said articles. Also images may need to be inserted into the articles. Comments also need to be posted to these articles.
2. I would also need a photo gallery that would be able to support members making sub categories to the main categories. they would also need to be able to mass upload images.
3. I would also need some type of a file vault that software and documents could be uploaded to for future downloading. This would need an easy search function as it would contain a huge volume of documentation. The same idea as the gallery where members could create sub categories if needed. Also if possible to have private areas in the file vault that would only be accessible by flagged members.
That would be my main features that I would need. Just a few other questions I need to ask.
Is Drupal compatible with IE and how is the support structure here if I need help if any bugs or problems occur.
