panels

I am playing with views and panels. I was successful to show the default archive views in panel. But when I create my own views with texanomy term and try to pull it to the panels the same way i do in archives it does not show. I want to create a views which shows the nodes Titles as per the texanomy term. The views does show in block but could not do it in panels.

Please help me out through this

I'm struggling with creating a panel layout for my site homepage.

What I want to do is display different content depending on whether the user is logged in or anonymous. The logged in user will see recent content, plus a small control panel to help them get started publishing blog entries, etc. The anonymous user will see an invitation to join the community, plus some recent content blocks underneath in case they want to browse the site.

Hi all,

I'm leading the conversion of three NC newspapers to Drupal 6, the first of which is The Daily Reflector. With our first big Drupal 5 site completed (to be upgraded to D6 soon) and many lessons learned, I figured it was time to start contributing back in the form of writeups and possible modules with this project.

I'm using the taxonomy page that's in code for Panels. In my selection rules for a variant, I am checking for a certain vocabulary type. There are a few terms however, that I would also like to be variants that reside in that vocab type.

Is this possible? Do I need to use php code or is that where contexts come in? I'm still trying to wrap my brain around panels 3.

Two days ago i was working on a page and introduced Panels 3. The page was designed without panels and already provided specific design regions such as the right and left column. So panels was ought to improve the situation...

But then suddenly it came clear there's some mismatch with those two.
If you have blocks enabled - panels will remain in the content part and your ability to modify the whole presentation is pretty limited.

I'm trying to have some new pages with panels which would need to have some lists of nodes filtered by taxonomy term. I noticed there is a view for panels called 'og_recent_type_term', which has a taxonomy context dropdown, which I believed I could use for that. However I'm not succeeding. Is there a way to have a taxonomy/term/xxx type pane within a panel page?

OK, for some reason, the configure 'thing' (someone give me a better word) that appears when logged in as an admin when you hover over certain objects is taking over. The block for the configure is overlapping content I need to click on! Specifically Panels.

When I say configure, let me clarify that the link will look something like this:
mysite.com/admin/build/block/configure/...

As part of the big update to Drupal 6.0, groups is now running the latest and greatest OG Panels stack, including Panels 3.0, Chaos Tools 1.0 with the awesome Page Delegator, and the newly independent and 6.0 compatible OG Panels module.

This is a great thing for our future as a dynamic community, and it means that group maintainers can continue to use Panels to trick-out their Organic Groups. However, the complexity of the update and the changes from Views 1 to 2 mean that much of the content that was previously configured in panels no longer worked as it previously had. Unfortunately, groups admins will need to refurbish and/or recreate their homepages.

All your old pages are there, and the UI should be familiar. There are also some nice new options and more coming soon. However, all panels pages are un-published and no homepages are in effect, so you'll need to review them and republish when ready. Please use this thread to ask questions on the topic of OG Panels.

UPDATE: a wiki page with instructions is starting to come together here.

Preview functionality is known feature of many publishing systems: it's intended to show exactly how your content will look like before publishing. With nodes displayed in Panel Pages there is issue that panel layout can be quite complex, and sometimes you can't have same display in Panel Page and in preview (without spending too much effort). Basically, to have same display one would have to code that complex layout in node template too, in addition to Panel lauout template, or have some way to render Panel display in preview.
How do you solve that problem ?
Is it possible to render Panel page in preview in place of node template ?

I've just updated from Panels-2 to Panels-3. I've run into some theme problems with Ctools. On the Edit Panels Content page, the page loads with all the CTools drop down menus expanded. This happens with my custom theme, but not with the Garland theme.

Has anyone else run into this? Any suggestions on how to fix?

thanks
