Text Blocks in Contact Form
Hi everybody,
I recently set up a contact page on my site. I put a link on my menu bar for the contact form by following these steps:
1.Go to Structure > Menus
2.Click "list links" for the Navigation menu
3.Click "edit" for the menu item "Contact"
4.Select the "enable" checkbox
5.Change the "Parent link" to "Main menu"
6.Click "Save"
Dynamic block alter/creation with custom field
Hello all,
Still relatively new to Drupal, coming from WordPress. My objective is to allow my content editors to edit a "See Also" field on my custom content type, "Product," and have it appear in a "See Also" block in the sidebar region.
Read moreBlock placement adjunct to core Drupal block system
I'd like a module that would allow administrators to more intuitively determine block placement, both on the page and throughout the site, using the core Drupal block system. This is what I'm thinking of:
o A button on every page should allow administrators to edit the blocks <i>for that page</i>.
o When not administering blocks,
+ Quick links (ajax) should be displayed on each block for
# hiding from this page
# hiding from all pages with path …
# configuring the block
Read more Sidebar Filling
This idea is based on the http://css-tricks.com/more-sidebar/ post.
Simply described, the idea is to automatically show/add blocks, or panes in Panels, so that they only take up the same height space as the content. Then unused space will be filled with content, making the pages look better and content aligned on the height.
This could be done in various ways such as:
<
ul>
adding a form to any page of the site that will submit to existing exposed view block
I have a view, displayed as a block, with exposed filters, assigned to one page node on my site.
This is a simple search form with a Taxonomy drop down, keyword search for name, and a few other simple filters.
My problem is that I want to include an additional form on other pages of the site (a sidebar block for example) that will submit to this view.
Is this possible?
I'm testing now, but have yet to produce results.
I copied the HTML of the form and used that as my starting point.
Of course, this view uses AJAX as it has exposed filters and is output as a block.
Read moreAssistance with changing around a theme
Hi, I was wondering if anyone could help me in figuring out how to change something in an already existing theme. I am learning Drupal, all at the same time [configuration, architecture, templates and css] - I am actually a designer and my intention is to master it, but right now I am stuck in something I think is a very simple css/template glitch.

Read moreWebform in block follow up
At our meeting the other night, I asked about adding a Subscribe To Mailing List form, with input field for email address and Submit button. Turns out the last upgrade to WebForm includes an option to expose in Block. So, I have chosen to use Webform for all three types of sub forms needed on the site.
The method to embedded a Webform in a view to get it into a block is not needed. And the module "Webform in Block" is not needed.
The best part is other enhancements are present as well, and I wanted a few of those.
Help with image gallery in a block
Hi all, by way of intro I have been sitting on the side of this group for a month or two now watching for some events to attend to build my knowledge of Drupal. I am a long time web developer and web manager in Brisbane (currently working in a customer experience management role) and have only recently discovered Drupal, but I think it's very exciting as a platform for building complex sites.
Read moreHow do I fix this sidebar gutter issue in Acquia Slate?
[FIXED] Hey,
I seem to be having an issue with my sidebar gutters using Acquia Slate.
I can set up the blocks however I like them, however, they have an INSANELY large margin-bottom, and a Firebug inspection isn't revealing anything that can be modified.

I didn't notice the .dark-transparent-background element. Which, by the way, has a min-height of 390px. Setting a smaller min-height (I personally did 100px, you can probably get away with 1px if you try) in local.css fixed the problem.
Getting Menu_Id for a Menu-Block placed in a Region of a Theme
Hello!
This may be OT here - in case it is, maybe you can point me to the right place to post this.
I'm working on a theme for a non-profit website. I've been googling for a whole day without finding a solution.
I want to achieve the following:
Menu-Blocks that are placed in a certain region of my theme need to be processed to change their markup. Processing is not hard to do. But how can I get the following info from drupal:
- Is there a Block containing a Menu in a certain region?
- If so, what is the menu_id of this menu, so that my theme can process the menu tree?
