update

So far I have been developing sites on my local machine and dumping all the files + database to my live server after the development is done. These were some small projects for which I used some contributed modules and wrote some small modules for them.

Now I have a requirement to provide some changes and updates to my live projects. The only way I can do it now is to keep working on my local site and keep a track of all the steps I have performed. Once I am done with the local site perform the same steps on live server.

Definitely this should not be the way to do this !!!!!

Okay, this is undoubtedly a stupid question but ---

I am working on a site that has a taxonomy type which the client wants to have displayed in the taxonomy weight order -- the terms on the edit page are of course sorted by taxonomy weight, but since term order isn't saved anywhere, the terms don't show up in order when the node is displayed.

Please keep in mind that 1.7 -> 2.0 is a major version update and the update process will be somewhat rocky.

I have a content type Education, used by the user to fill in his/her educational information. I want to use rules to redirect the user to his profile page, whenever a user creates, updates or deletes his/her educational information. I have been able to do it for create but how do I do it for update and delete?

Thanks for reading this.

Hi Chris,

Love the DRUSH tool!

I have been using it as much as I can and each time am finding new things and ways to take advantage of it.

I have a question - concerning the update and updatecode functions. I didn't see any detailed docs on recommended usage on this and was wondering if you or anyone else that is more knowledgeable on it, could show us the proper way to use these functions?

For example do we put the site in maintenance mode, disable modules prior to update, etc.

Thanks so much!

Hi Everyone.

I have asked this earlier on forums as well, but didn't get any response.

Upgrading a website with around 200k nodes from Drupal 5.20 to 6.14

I read the drupal upgrade guide and i have tried with a test database.

But, the upgrade process doesn't complete. There are always some errors.

Also, should be upgrade happen in just one go, or it can be performed in different sub-sections.

Last time i ran update.php file, it was with url >> /update.php?op=start&id=7 which tells that it was seventh time. I guess this shouldn't cause any trouble ?

I was not sure where to post this question. Appologies if this is not the correct place.

I've been looking at PressFlow and it looks nice that it already comes packaged with several performance related patches. Thanks to those who made it available.

However, compared to latest Drupal snapshot, it seems to be missing latest Drupal core patches. If this happens with minor fixes it's ok, but it seems it could also happen with security related issues?

Alright, after much mucking about with licensing issues and contacting library owners and further code merging and committing, it looks like we are back on track. Late night hacking has resulted in the following features:

• An administration page where you can log into a Google Account via AuthSub
• A testing query page where you can see what data Analytics will send back

This is a re-write of my drupal.org forum post at http://drupal.org/node/424154 . I figure it would be better discussed here.

How do I get configuration updates out to "pre-configured" sites? I'm currently using install profiles to "pre-configure" drupal sites, but they offer no way to "update" the profile on an existing site when a new version is released.

We are using Drupal at a University and are using a multi-site setup. When it comes time to update modules, I'm guessing we would have to run update.php on each site of the multi-site install. Is it possible to update modules in multi-site setup without having to go to update.php for each site?
