Call hook_node_access_records() from custom function

hi,

usually the hook "hook_node_access_records($node)" gets called when you hit the save-button on the edit page of a node. I need to call this function outside the edit-form.

I'm building a custom content-privacy module and I need to call this function for all existing nodes filtered by content-type (for example all blog nodes).

The problem I have is that this hook needs a node-object as a parameter. When being on a node-edit page (node/[NID]/edit) this object will be available. But when I don't edit a node I have no node-object available.

Menu in custom module disappears

Hi Guys,

I'm developing a custom module for some privacy stuff. My module provides a new page under "user/[UID]/edit/privacy".

'title' => 'Privacy',

Organic Group question - using groups to filter nodes, not exclusively contain them

Hello,

I'm working on a website for robot builders to show off their projects. Users submit projects, blog posts, etc., which are publicly shown to everyone. I've installed OG and my plan is to let users join various groups that represent local robotics clubs or contests.

I want to build a custom module to see if I (as logged-in user) have a relationship to an any user when viewing nodes created by an other user.

Someting like this.

Let's say we have a default drupal installation with two users "User A" and "User B" and the User Relationship module to create relationships between users.
- User A and User B have no "friends".
- User A logs in and he creates several blog entries.

New Chat Module?

I am thinking of making a chat module that would not require any external server or service to function, similar to http://drupal.org/project/chatroom. I don't like chatroom's way of doing things so I want to develop a new module. My desired result would a be a user to user chat very similar to gmail and facebook. I am thinking of integrating in with AppBar to make development easier as per this discussion, http://drupal.org/node/609884. Any suggestions or comments? Does anyone have a decent user to user chat that runs well without requiring an external service?

Events module

Hi,
I'm looking for a module to help me have events sent by users.
¿Possibly a new content type?

Cannot find anything for "Events" on this list.
http://drupal.org/node/206724

I think it'd be very useful. Is there such a module?

Associate languages to (sub)forums

Hi,
using the core forum module, I find that even installing internationalization modules it is not possible to associate language to a forum.

My idea is to create some forums in English, like "Green Bananas in US", "Green bananas in UK" plus having some forums in Spanish, like "Bananas verdes en España", "Bananas verdes en Guatemala". I want that, depending on the language the user has selected, they can see forums on their language only.
Do I need a special module to allow that?
Thanks a lot

Module list

Hi,
I miss a list of modules related with social networking. I can't find such list.

Instead, I have to dig through forums and search results on the group (and in the net) and hoping I use the correct words to get all the interesting modules available.

I think it would be of interest of everyone on this group to have an updated list of modules available and their state of development and maintenance. I suggest that could appear as one of the blocks on the sidebar on the right hand side.

User Relationship Rules / Or Role Dependent

Hello,
Is there a way to (relatively easy) make a user relationship based on the role a user has? For example users which have role A can become friends with everyone who is role A but not with role B. Simple question but hard to find any answers.

Thanks so much!

Panel/Ctools creates wrong path to CSS file

Hello,

I have a problem with Panels 3.3 and Ctools 1.3 (I guess). I'm using Drupal 6.16.

I use the "Flexible Layout" in Panels to create a two-column-display for my user profile pages. On my local drupal installation everything works fine. But when it comes to the online version the display of my two columns breaks.

I've found, that panels (or ctools) creates a css file which provides the needed css code for the two-columns. The path to this css file is wrong and I don't know how to fix this :(.

Here's what I think causes the problem:

The feature of that discussion system are:

I have node type debate, where a topic is enlisted and the other members will post "replies" hence discussion.

However I am trying to find a module or set of modules which can do these:

2) After node expiry "replies" are disabled

3) Revoke the node author's permission to edit that node.

(Tabbed) profile page based on role - with option on having multiple profiles

Hello,
I am building a site where a user can have one of two roles or for some user both roles. I would like to have a different profile page based on the role and ideally for those users with two roles, have the two profiles pages in different tabs so that the viewer of the profile can quickly switch between the two profile pages.

I have build the two profile pages using Content Profile / CCK / Panels 3

Now I am running into difficulty on how to actually show two profiles as two pages behind tabs.

Any suggestion welcome!
