Read moreViews 2 Argument Handling Code with CiviCRM View
I'm looking for views argument handling code that will link a CiviCRM contact to a Drupal node. The idea is that a Civi contact has a profile page (node). The profile page (node) includes blocks that contain views of a corresponding Civi Contact.
For example. An organization by the name of "Cultural Arts Center" has a profile page (a drupal content type) titled "Cultural Arts Center". They also have a Civi Contact with a display name "Cultural Arts Center" . I want their contact info and some custom fields from Civi (ie their mission) to show on their profile page.

Read moreWebform module woes
Assistance needed...I decided to try out the Webform module on my local test machine, and on two different sites I get the same problem. After installing and enabling the module, when I go into Create Content to make a webform, I get Title and Body fields (like a Story) rather than the Body, Description, and Confirmation Message fields that are normally associated with this module.
I am assuming a conflict with another module ... any suggestions on how to address this dilemma? TIA
Need advice on using the FAQ module
If anyone has used the FAQ module for Drupal, I have a few questions. I am new to creating Drupal sites, and I am trying to create a FAQ page for a medical site that has approx. 5 main categories, with up to 20 questions that will fall under those categories. I would like to have just the main categories show on the FAQ page, and when a user clicks the category link, the questions show. Clicking a question will go to a page that shows the complete answer to that question.
