Support questions

I'm trying to move my development site to a live site and am following Nicole Bluto's Drupal LA seminar notes on "Migrating a Site from Stage to Live".

I've exported my databased using the Backup and Migrate module.
I created a fresh drupal install on the live site.
I've copied my "sites" folder from the development site into the live site.

At this point she says to create a new database... can I not just import my exported database into the fresh install?

Also, she says to alter the settings.php file at line #92

$db_url='mysql://username:password@localhost/databasename';

I am using Lightbox with the Gallery Assist module and it works fine for me on Firefox (version 3.5.4 on a Mac), but when I attempt to view the gallery on Safari (ver. 4.0.3) the Lightboxes do not show up and a small box appears with an image of a camera crossed out.

The lightbox was working before on other browsers, but apparently I've done something to mess it up.

My test site is: http://www.pastorsstudy.com/testsite

Any help would be appreciated. Thank you.

Sorry for the newbie question.

I need to be able to upload quicktime video to my site and use views to make a gallery.

For whatever reason, I'm trying different combinations of modules to accomplish this but I can't seem to find a way to manipulate the video properly in views to get it into a gallery.

Help!

I'm sure this must be a real simple issue, but for some reason I can't seem to figure it out.

I'm trying to create a simple video gallery using views. I'm using cck, image cache, filefield and the JQ media module to upload video and use it in my video gallery.

When I add my content video_field to field options and proceed to choose a format, all the image cache formats show up, but nothing for video content. When I go to the page with the video gallery view, no videos appear because I can't set a video "format". In my created content, my video shows up, but not in the view.

I am trying to find the simplest way to create menus using images that rollover.

I came across the imagemenu module which seems to be for that purpose, but get stuck in the process. The module asks for me to designate a "path" for the files (both original image and rollover), but everything I try does not seem to work. I have it pointing to the file folder set up under "Site Configuration/File system" and I also attempted to put in a URL directly to the file (http://www.....).

If someone is familiar with imagemenu and if that solution would work for me, please help : )

I find it not so easy to theme categories on node edit pages. For example, if I have a group of input fields for location, where "City" is a CCK text field and "State" is a vocabulary, I don't know easy (standard Drupal) way to put "City" and "State" close by; there could be other vocabulary fields that are not related to location and should be placed apart from "State".

I have been resorting to kind of hacky approaches such as javascript to manipulate/relocate fields on client side, which works but I can't help feeling there must be a better way.

Hi,

I am having email issues with a drupal install and wanted to see if anyone has had experience with this before.

I am testing on a live site, the issue comes into play when a user clicks on "Request a new password" from user/login. When the user adds his/her username or email address to the field and clicks "submit", the system acknowledges the interaction by telling the user that an email has been sent to their account. The problem is that the email is never sent to the user's email account.

I just added two new fields to a content type and when I go to my Create Content form for that content type, the new fields are not in the form. I go back to check my fields in the content type creation and they are there and in the proper order. So why are they not showing up in the form?

I've been having the problem all morning where I'm so close to creating my first view but it's just not there yet. Here's what I've done so far.

I'm creating a recipe book application so I created a new Content Type called Recipes and from that I went to add two new fields. One called Ingredients and one called Preparation. I give them both a name, a type of text and a widget of a text area for both. I move them above and beneath the body text area (now renamed Recipe) appropriately. Save it, go to add a page in Recipes but the form still shows the old format. No new fields. So where are they?
