contemplate

For an online magazine with several different article content types, rather than having editors type in byline info in field_byline for each article, I'd like the byline to be drawn from a related "content type," People. So, I'm obviously setting field_byline up as a nodereference field that draws from content type People. This will make it easy to select the writer of the article from a pull-down list (or an autocomplete field), easily keep links to author contact info updated universally across the site, etc.

I have these huge chunks of html that I need to be able to select in the node settings witch one to use (if any).
I am thinking a cck float point value, and an (if || switch) statement in the contemplate. the question is the best way to store the static html chunks. As a (block || include file || some other way)

any ideas?

Hi.
I have this need: use drupal as a rss remixer. That means I want to suscribe to feed1, feed2, feed3 and give "tag A" as a tag for feed 1 and 2.

Then I make a view that is the taxonomy term view for "tag A".
I want the RSS feed of this view to redirect title links and "read more" links directly to the original article, and not to my site.
But I can't, since the RSS style in views is not changeable.
I tried with "Contemplate module", but it will only allow me to change the teaser and body of the rss feed.

I have create a contemplate which shows cck fields in table format.

When I see the content alone, I see the same correctly in table format (http://enjoyindianfood.com/ss2.jpeg)

But when I see the same in Homepage, table disappear and I see it in unformatted view. (http://enjoyindianfood.com/ss1.jpeg)

I know this will be very silly one but can some one help.

Hi, this is, to be sure a simple question for anyone who knows even rudimentary .PHP, but even after most of an entire day, the solution continues to elude me.

I am building a custom content type in Drupal 6 where registered users can submit their events. Fields include event name, time & date, etc., as well as a e-mail field and the sponsoring organization’s URL(s). “field_email,” use the “Text Field” widget. “field_link”, logically uses “Text Fields for Title and URL.” These two are not required and both allow multiple values (unlimited).

I have been trying to work something out for the past few days thats really starting to kill me! It should be so simple, but im stuck. I have a functioning body template (cck + contemplate) for one of my content types, which works great. I have coded in a set of tabs which show a field or group as a tab, this works great; however for one of my tabs I require a more css stylized layout with a multiplicity of fields. I've been banging my head trying to figure the best way to accomplish this.

This is my first-ever drupal site. I started by trying to duplicate an ASB VBScript site that a long-lost developer did for me. When the old site's database corrupted a few weeks ago, it naturally accelerated my development of the drupal site. I pulled everything together and posted the beta as quickly as I could.

It seems like there are a lot of questions (and answers) regarding how to create a newspaper and/or magazine style site. I also noticed the WillieBHines just added this very helpful site recipe:
Use CCK to make a unique front page

Following his lead, I'd like to help contribute more ingredients that would ideally be mixed into a complete site recipe/install profile for a music/arts-centric newspaper/magazine style site. Having said that, here are a few examples, suggested ingredients and questions for something that could be titled 'use cck, contemplate, views, panels, and some other special ingredients to create structured sections and article pages'. Unfortunately I can't cook or write a good recipe.
