Comparison of rotator / slider modules | drupal.org

This page came about as a result of this post in the Duplicated Modules Hall of Shame group. The linked post lists several modules that provide either tabbed content or rotating content. I see two general use cases here:

* A device to provide access to large amounts of regular site content from one area of the page (tabbed content).
* A device to showcase featured content, often on the home page, in an eye-catching manner (rotating /sliding content).

I am limiting this comparison page to the latter use case. My own module, Quick Tabs, was included in the original list linked to above, but as it does not provide any real rotator or slideshow type functionality, I am leaving it out here. It is open to discussion whether the ideal eventual outcome of any consolidation between the best features of the best of the modules would be a package that includes both types of feature.

Feedback 2.0 | drupal.org

Feedback 2 allows users and visitors of a Drupal site to quickly send feedback messages about the currently displayed page, using a fixed positioned and ajaxified feedback form. This helps site administrators in quality assurance of their pages, contents and theme.

Because the form is submitted via AJAX, a user will not be redirected to another page and can continue visiting/using the site after posting feedback.

All feedback messages are listed and grouped by status in an administrative feedback log. Each feedback message can be marked as 'done'. Privileged users are able to see existing feedback messages for the currently displayed page to prevent submitting duplicate feedbacks for already known issues (f.e. during site building). Since feedback messages are additionally stored with a 'masked' path (similar to dynamic menu item arguments in D6, i.e. user/%/edit), existing feedback messages for similar pages can be displayed (except node/% paths).

FileField Sources | drupal.org

FileField Sources is an extension to the FileField module. The FileField module lets you upload files from your computer through a CCK field. The FileField Sources module expands on this ability by allowing you to select new or existing files through additional means, including:

* Re-use files by an auto-complete textfield
* Transfer files from a remote server (cURL required)
* Select existing files through the IMCE file browser

Although FileField Sources provides several built-in sources, it can be extended by any module through an API for creating new sources. Users can toggle between any of the available methods for selecting a file.

This module is in early, early development. It should be safe to use but may have unexpected behavior or may not be able to reference files correctly. FileField ultimately prevents any invalid use of files.

Tags sizes not shown when used with taxonomy redirect | drupal.org

I have a somewhat odd error, which means that whenever I have a tag cloud which is redirected with the taxonomy_redirect module, all tags are rendered with the class "level0"

I can follow the code all the way through, and the level shows correctly in the term object. But whenever it is put through the theming function
$output .= l($term->name, taxonomy_term_path($term), array('attributes' => array('class' => "tagadelic level$term->weight", 'rel' => 'tag'))) ." \n";

it suddenly turns to zero. For the tag clouds which are not redirected it works fine.

I have also found a workaround, so changing the line from the above to:
$weight = $term->weight;
$output .= l($term->name, taxonomy_term_path($term), array('attributes' => array('class' => "tagadelic level$weight", 'rel' => 'tag'))) ." \n";

makes it render correctly. I am not sure this is the right way to fix it, nor am I exactly sure why it fails. It might be the php implementation? If anyone can come up with an explanation I would love to hear it.

Migrer d'image a image_field

Je me suis enfin debarasse du module image. Pas qu'il soit mauvais en soit. Juste que j'ai pris l'habitude de travailler avec image_field.

J'ai suivi les conseils trouves sur cette page : http://drupal.org/node/201983

J'ai tente le script plusieurs fois. Cela n'a pas fonctionne. Au bout de 5 fois, j'ai applique la methode decrite ici : http://drupal.org/node/201983#comment-828698

Merveilleux. :-)
