Hi,

I understand there is a Pasadena Drupal meetup at the beginning of every month. I heard a few concerns about running out of space. I will venture out and see what I can do about my Caltech contacts. But in the meantime, I write to suggest my favorite cafe, which is a 1-minute walk away from the original Pasadena meetup location.

I'm trying to create an image gallery that would do the following:

Have all photos showing. Have a list of all current tags (from just one vocabulary) in a sidebar. Allow users to checkmark the tags they want to look at. Have the gallery narrow down to just the photos with at least those tags.

I have a content type with a cck field where i upload a image file. each time when i upload an image one image file is created in my directory and image cache directory and thumbnails directory.

I try to make a module to create content from this content type but i do not upload the image I just copy to direcory (ftp). now everything is fine but i can not do make that the image in thumbnails diretory and imagecache direcory be created.

somebody can help me

I have an open source friend who is considering making the jump to Drupal. He has a couple of questions I cannot answer. I have done some of these things in D7, but have not really stressed the system. If this looks like an interesting project for a newcomer to practice on please chime in. I wish I had the time.

Hi all,

I am wondering about the impact of gzipping CSS and JS files (after aggregation) in comparison to CPU cycles. In our Drupal site I have installed and enabled the JS and CSS aggregation modules, but they weren't utilized. So after some investigation I asked our hosts tech support and they confirmed that we're not serving resources compressed. From what I understood it was not enabled on the server side.

I was told that utilizing compression (gzip) would not provide me significant amount of savings, but impact the CPU cycles substantially.

It's the long absent me. My Drupal life is way changed in the last 30 days but more on that later. Believe it or not, it's time to start planning SandCamp 2012.

Hi all--
Muscled through this bear of an issue and wanted to share my story.

Building an ubercart site, and need to customize the /cart/checkout page to allow a user to log in from there.

I was reading the site builders guide to Git (http://drupal.org/node/803746) and had a question about renaming remotes across all environments. The guide indicates to only rename the remote on your local development environment to point to your new repository.

When I update/commit/push to my new repository everything is fine, but when I pull to my development or staging environment and run git status, I get a notice that my branch is ahead of origin/xxxxxxx by 3 commits.

Should I rename the remotes in all environments to point to my repository as origin??

Hi Anyone,

Is there anyone with access to June 1988 Journal of Fluids Engineering? While I used to work for an academic institution, I no longer do and have no idea how to get hold of an old reprint.

I know there are some folks here who do work for colleges. If you do, and have access to a library, please get in touch.

The article I'm looking for:

R.T. Balmer. Pressure-driven Ranque-Hilsch temperature separation in liquids. Trans. ASME, J. Fluids Engineering, 110:161–164, June 1988.

Thanks!

Tagging on to Christefano's presentation, I was curious which takes precedence when setting a variable value: Setting the var value in settings.php or using strongarm (in a feature).

I've tested this in local build, and, as expected, the settings.php $conf array takes precedence over strongarm values.
