components such as lists, form items, removes an ugly hack from the
archive module and should fix the poll problem (although it doesn't
Opera/Konqueror).
- Fixed a typo in the MSSQL database scheme. Patch by Michael Frankowski.
- Removed dependency on "register_globals = on"! Patches by Michael Frankowski.
Notes:
+ Updated the patches to use $foo["bar"] instead of $foo['bar'].
+ Updated the INSTALL and CHANGELOG files as well.
- Tiny improvement to the "./scripts/code-clean.sh" script.
will now barf when trying to instantiate a non-existing theme class.
This should help to identify broken themes, and to track down theme system
related bugs.
- Removed all instances of '$user->nodes'.
- Committed Moshe's taxonomy patch - minus the node_compact_list() bit. It needs a bit more thought/work. This patch changes the links of taxonomy pages/feeds so update your custom code and themes accordingly!
Themes should now use "taxonomy_link("taxonomy terms", $node)" to get an array of taxonomy term links. The old construct is deprecated and should be changed.
// old theme blob:
if (function_exists("taxonomy_node_get_terms")) {
foreach (taxonomy_node_get_terms($node->nid) as $term) {
$terms[] = l($term->name, NULL, array(), "or=$term->tid");
}
}
// new theme blob:
if (module_exist("taxonomy")) {
$terms = taxonomy_link("taxonomy terms", $node);
}
// old URL:
http://foo.com/index.php?or=1,2
// new URL:
http://foo.com/?q=taxonomy/page/or/1,2
- Bad usage of css ID's: they may be used for a single element only,
but were used as #node, #block, which can occur multiple times in a
single page.
- Moved HTML from theme to template - thats what templates are all
about!
- Added support for head() hook
- Added support for diffentiating between boxes and blocks.
- Typo: secundary -> secondary
"This patch to theme.inc adds the ability for modules to insert HTML
into the <HEAD> section of all web pages. The additional modules in
this directory [ed: blog.module] demonstate possible uses for the
new _head() hook."
"This is a simple, generic pager for Drupal-CVS. It is designed to be
easily themeable and expandable. The code is highly-commented to
enhance readability."
"Pagers are constructed by combining the provided pieces (all of which
can be easily modified to display the text or image you prefer) into
your custom pager."
* Statistics module fixes by Jeremy:
- removed superfluous check for existence of watchdog()
- saving changes in admin page displays status and returns same page
- no longer return 1971/01/01 in "view statistics" table
- switched from "!=" to "<>" in SQL queries for ANSI-SQL compliance
- switched from "MAX(timestamp) as timestamp" to "MAX(timestamp) as
max_timestamp" moving towards ANSI-SQL compliance.
* Added a "theme_item_list" function to format itemized lists. Also
changed a couple of modules to take advantage of it. Makes for a
more consistent UI.
+ Blocks are not longer called if not rendered: major performance
improvement.
+ Fixed some bugs (preview option was broken, path option was broken).
+ Removed "ascii"-type blocks.
+ Added permission to for "PHP blocks"
+ ...
NOTES:
+ You'll want to run "update.php":
ALTER TABLE blocks DROP remove;
ALTER TABLE blocks DROP name;
+ You'll want to update your custom modules as well as the modules in
the contrib repository. Block function should now read:
function *_block($op = "list", $delta = 0) {
if ($op == "list") {
return array of block infos
}
else {
return subject and content of $delta block
}
}
returned by theme_list() as it breaks the site ... The attached patch
prevents this from happening but does not remove the theme from the system
table in the SQL database - if the theme is removed from the database upon
viewing the themes administration page (or another trigger), I guess that
is fine.
Kjartan: my fix is the right thing to apply because theme_list() is used
elsewhere where it requires to return a list of existing themes.
Maybe it's a little sad but the current theme loading code might
be slower and more complex than the old Drupal 3 theme loading
code ... ?
or disabled as it will cause errors otherwise.
- split status into status and custom. Status will turn the block
on/off, and custom defined if the user can change the status.
Requires sql update.
- reintroduced user page to configure blocks.
+ Changed the db_query() API.
+ Wrapped all links in l(), lm(), la(), ..., drupal_url() functions.
+ XHTML-ified some HTML.
+ Wrapped a lot of text in the administrative pages in a t()
function.
+ Replaced all $REQUEST_URI/$PATH_INFOs by request_uri().
+ Small bugfixes (eg. bug in book_export_html() and clean-ups (eg.
RSS code).
+ Fixed some bugs in the taxonomy module (eg. tree making bug), added
new functionality (eg. new APIs for use by other modules), included
Moshe's taxonomy extensions, and some documentation udpates.
+ ...
Committing Changes by Moshe Weitzman:
- admin_user_account(), user_edit(), and user_view() no longer have any
hard code for authentication modules. instead authentication modules
implement the _user hook.
- fixed a couple 'help' typos.
- linked the 'REGISTER' text in the login block to the register page.
this page now advertises DA better if site employs DA.
- admins may now edit everything about a user account (was a feature
request).
- user #1 may now login immediately, in addition to receiving his
password via email.
Other changes:
- modules and themes are now enabled/disabled in the administrative /
settings / modules | themes pages. Requires SQL update and things must
be enabled before your site returns to normal. TODO: enable all
functionality. (For now just do UPDATE system SET status = 1;)
- removed $themes from conf.php.
- added a $theme->system() function where theme can specify settings.
All themes in the Drupal CVS have been updated to use this.
- added _system hook to modules. TODO: update modules to use this.
- changed strange use of sprintf to the usual strtr. The disadvantage of
sprintf is that it requires translations to keep the string order,
which may not be possible in all languages.
- an invalid/nonexisting theme in a user profile will now fallback to the
BaseTheme instead of crashing.
* only problem is that the admin.php link is not available until the
admin enables the block.
* $theme->user is obsolete, will patch the themes properly in a
later patch.
- moved moderation block from theme.inc to queue.module.
* removed theme_moderation_results().
- updated database/database.mysql.
+ Improved input filtering; this should make the news items look
more consistent in terms of mark-up.
+ Quoted all array indices: converted all instances of $foo[bar]
to $foo["bar"]. Made various other changes to make the import
module compliant with the coding style.
- theme.inc:
+ Fixed small XHTML glitch
- comment system:
+ Made it possible for users to edit their comments (when certain
criteria are matched).
+ Renamed the SQL table field "lid" to "nid" and updated the code
to reflect this change: this is a rather /annoying/ change that
has been asked for a few times. It will impact the contributed
BBS/forum modules and requires a tiny SQL update:
sql> ALTER TABLE comments CHANGE lid nid int(10) NOT NULL;
+ Moved most (all?) of the comment related logic from node.php to
comment.module where it belongs. This also marks a first step
towards removing/reducing "node.php".
+ Added a delete button to the comment admin form and made it so
that Drupal prompts for confirmation prior to deleting a comment
from the database. This behavior is similar to that of deleting
nodes.
+ Disabled comment moderation for now.
+ Some of the above changes will make it easier to integrate the
upcomcing mail-to-web and web-to-mail gateways. They are part
of a bigger plan. ;)
- node system:
+ Made it so that updating nodes (like for instance updating blog
entries) won't trigger the submission rate throttle.
+ Fixed a small glitch where a node's title wasn't always passed
to the $theme->header() function.
+ Made "node_array()" and "node_object()" more generic and named
them "object2array()" and "array2object()".
+ Moved most (all?) of the comment related logic from node.php to
comment.module where it belongs. This also marks a first step
towards removing/reducing "node.php".
- misc:
+ Applied three patches by Foxen. One to improve performance of
the book module, and two other patches to fix small glitches in
common.inc. Thanks Foxen!
In all themes, except Marvin which already had $title, I put the $title first, because it's usually the thing the page is about:
"The future of weblogs? - Drop.org"
"Your account settings - Drop.org"
rather than the other way around, right?
- Made the /comment links/ jump to the comments instead of to the top
of the page.
- Replaced the "Add comment"-button by a "add new comment"-link.
(This should make UnConeD jump up and down of wild excitement.)
- Moved all comment related logic from theme.inc and node.module to
comment.inc and comment.module (where they belong).
- Added some links to ease the site's usability/navigation.
as this breaks revisions.
- modified link_node() to take a third parameter $main, which will be passed on
to _link hooks. This lets modules decide which links a node will get when
shown on the main page, or when not.
- updated themes to use the new syntax.
tables: I changed all "id"s to "xid"s where "x" is the first letter of
the table name. I also renamed all remaining "userid"s to "uid"s as I
mentioned I would do. Take a look at ./drupal/updates/3.00-to-x.xx.sql
for the MySQL updates.
range of databases including MySQL, PostgreSQL, MSSQL, and others.
For additional information and an 'how to upgrade', check the mails
sent to the mailing list.
- removed comment_controls().
- modified comment_render() to use $theme->comment_controls().
theme.inc
- added BaseTheme->comment_controls().
locale.module
- can now search for status independant of language.
- string is now a regular expression. For wildcard searches do .*text.*.
- can search in modules + pages, all modules or a specific module.
account.php
- fixed viewing other accounts info would show the active users name in the
real name field.
- now shows users recent contributions and comments (if the user has access to
them).
+ added new "tab" to import.module called "news sources".
+ improvement to import.module navigation.
- theme.inc:
+ renamed 'your contributions' to 'your submissions'.
+ added RSS 0.91(5) feeds to the blog module which makes it possible
to both syndicate an particular user's latest blog entries, or the
latest entries of all users.
+ added $theme->images()
- blog.module:
+ improved user-friendliness and rewrote most of the output routines
+ made quoted text /italic/ by default
+ integrated discussion system like it should
+ ...
- marvin.theme:
+ small visual improvements
Basically this is a 'nice version' of a hack that you could do as a theme author.
I've updated all the standard themes, but 3rd party themes will of course have to be updated by their authors, in the following manner:
- Replace the box() declaration:
< function box($subject, $content) {
> function box($subject, $content, $region = "main") {
- Replace the theme_account call:
< theme_account($this);
> theme_account("region", $this);
Note that you'll have to replace "region" with the correct region that the box is placed in. However if you have a one-column theme, you should use "all", and not for example "left" (if all boxes are on the left).
Usually the "region" here should be the same as the nearest theme_blocks() call.
Those theme authors who want to can make boxes that appear in the center look different from those that appear in the sides for example.
- Fixed tiny quote problem in account.php.
- Fixed tiny bug in comment.inc.
- Fixed tiny bug in comment.module.
- Fixed tiny bug in meta.module.
- Simplified user_access() API.
- Rewrote link system: still needs fine-tuning and testing so don't
upgrade if you are running a production site. ;)
Updated all modules and themes to reflect this change. All other
themes and modules need updating too!
(groups) and 'permissions' ... (inspired by Zope's system).
+ Once installed, click the help-link for more information.
+ See updates/2.00-to-x.xx.sql for the SQL updates.
- Modified loads of code to use our new access.module. The system
still has to mature though: new permissions have to be added and
existing permissions need stream-lining. Awaiting suggestions.
- As a direct result of the new access system, I had to rewrite the
way the top-level links in admin.php are rendered and displayed,
and xhtml-ified admin.php while I was at it.
TODO
- Home-brewed modules need updating, home-brewed themes not.
(Examples: file.module, trip_link.module)
- As soon we *finished* the refactoring of the user system (KJ has
been working on this refactoring already) we should consider to
embed this role and permission code into account.module ...
it wasn't a good idea to split them up in first place, and it turned
out to be quite hard to decide where to put some variables.
Also moved some variables around and even renamed a few variables
while doing so.
- Added a page_header() and page_footer() to all top-level .php pages.
- Added a conf option to disable/enable user registrations.
- Added a add account feature to account.module.
- Moved some functions from account.php to account.module.
Todo
- Move most (all?) of account.php to account.module.
'=' instead of ';' and ':'. It is considered to be more readable.
--> A _first_ step towards and improved index.module. Stay tuned
for more.
+ Important:
If you update from CVS - apply the queries in 2.00-to-x.xx.sql!
- Changed all 'attribute' to 'attributes'.

This might require to ieni-wieni small update to your custom
themes and/or node-related modules:
- themes: node_index($node->attribute) -> node_index($node)
- node modules: attribute -> attributes
- fixed the trailing | in some cases.
- removed theme_morelinks().
- added node_links().
- simplified BaseTheme->links().
- updated themes.
Notes
- the new links system is taking form, but concider it beta. There might still
be some major changes ahead so I suggest waiting a little longer before
modifying your theme to take advantage of it.
update, you'll break your site as you need switching from structure
to index.module: so this can be considered an intermediate commit.
If you upgrade, and you are welcome to, just create a collection
called "section" (for now) and assign your nodes some attributes
in the described format.
Feedback and bugreports are welcomed. Questions will be answered.
CHANGES:
- comment system:
+ when replying to a node (rather then to a comment), that
node is displayed above the reply form.
+ when replying to a comment (rather then to a node), that
comment is displayd above the reply form.
- removed structure.inc, removed structure.module.
- node.inc:
+ added 2 new node functions called 'node_attribute_edit()' and
'node_attribute_save()' used to 'hook in' any indexing system
including your home-brewed stuff if you'd want to. Currently,
index.module is the facto default index system.
See story.module for usage.
- book.module, story.module, poll.module, page.module, forum.module:
+ added preview functionality to administration section (via node
module).
+ removed all references to structure.inc (category, topic).
- moderate.module:
+ removed all references to structure.inc (category, topic).
- book.module, story.module, page.module, forum.module:
+ increased the sizes of some textareas.
- submit.php:
+ removed all references to structure.inc (category, topic).
- marvin.theme:
+ removed dead code: function story() was depricated.
- unconed.theme:
+ removed hardcoded references to drop.org.
- marvin.theme, unconed.theme, jeroen.theme, yaroon.theme, example.theme:
+ removed all references to structure.inc (category, topic).
TODO:
- file.module, trip_link.module:
+ update preview functionality:
see story.module for example.
+ remove references to 'cid' and 'tid', use 'attribute' instead:
see story.module for example.
- extend and build upon index.module as well as making it configurable
- created a BaseTheme class in theme.inc.
- added links($links = array(), $status = 0, $node = 0) to BaseTheme.
- modified all themes to extend from BaseTheme.
- modiefied theme_link() to take advantage of $theme->links().
- theme_morelink() does not require a $theme argument.
Todo
- add the other standard variables and functions to BaseTheme.
- some themes could use some more modifications.
Weird
- marvin.theme still has a story() function.
- Fixed a bug in node.php: UnConeD forgot to update 1 node_get_object().
- I changed the look of theme_morelink() a bit: it might not look better,
but at least the output is "correct".
- Various small improvements.
this information to the "users"-field in both nodes and comments.
This database/table change reduces the number of SQL queries and
makes Drupal scale better where a lot of voting/moderation takes
place. Last but not least it can be considered a new and better
foundation for future moderation metrics / algorithms. In other
words: it is plain better.
--> oops, all voting/moderation results will be lost!
--> requires database update, see "2.00-to-x.xx.sql"!
- Updated database/database.mysql
is selected.
- Made theme_link() less "hard coded", we still have to make
it fully configurable though.
- Fixed glitch in story submission: the warning messages were
not displayed.
- Tidied up block.module a bit.
overhead, and a lot better (simpler) module API. I had to edit a
LOT of files to get this refactored but I'm sure it was worth the
effort.
For module writers / maintainers:
None of the hooks changed, so 95% of the old modules should still
work. You can remove some code instead as "$module = array(...)"
just became obsolete. Also - and let's thank God for this - the
global variable "$repository" has been eliminated to avoid modules
relying on, and poking in drupal's internal data structures. Take
a look at include/module.inc to investigate the details/changes.
- Improved design of the content modules "story", "book" and "node"
(to aid smooth integration of permisions + moderate.module). I'm
still working on the permissions but I got side tracked for which
I "Oops!".
module to develop and test the permission system along with the
regular nodes. And hopefully, this forum module will grow into
a very useable piece of code for drop.org.
Requires a new SQL table "forum", see 2.00-to-x.xx.sql.
- Removed 1 unused hook from page.module.
- Removed 1 unused function from comment.inc.
- Fixed an error in module_rehash_blocks() that didn't handle '-symbols.
- Removed some module depencies. Drupal will now run (sorta) even if there
are no modules installed.
- Changed theme_link() to check if certain modules are installed before
offering a link to them.
Todo
- Check all SQL queries to make sure they are addslashes'ed correctly.
- Check the effects of changing the PHP magic_quotes setting.
- Make the theme_link() function to be customizable either via the admin
page and/or in the module itself.
your theme:
- corrected some missing translations in story.module. Oops!
- grealty simplified the "moderation threshold mechanism"(tm) so
that module writers don't have to worry about this. As a result
story.module and book.module became a bit smaller and easier to
grasp.
- greatly simplified new "category" and "topic" code which is soon
going to replace the "section" code. Needs more work though so
hang on thight.
- includes/section.inc and modules/section.module are replaced by
includes/structure.module and modules/structure.module.
- beautified example.theme a bit without adding HTML complexity:
it is a good example but still useful as a theme
- made theme example use "categories" and "topics"
--> TAKE A LOOK AT IT AND UPDATE YOUR THEME
- made theme marvin use "categories" and "topics"
--> TAKE A LOOK AT IT AND UPDATE YOUR THEME
- added 2 new "story listings" to administrator interface of
story.module to verify story integrity.
- optimized comment table a bit (work in progress)
- slightly improved story.module, node.module and book.module
- made the "default theme" a setting from the setting page
- polished a bit on the export function: we can now export the
book or parts thereof through the following url:
1. http://drop.org/export/book/
(full book)
2. http://drop.org/export/book/nid
(where nid is the node id to start with)
The export routine demonstrates how it can be done yet the
output is too basic and can only improve over time.
- fixed update bug in book.module
- provide a log message when both adding and updating book pages
- all configurable variables are now accessed through "variable_get()":
- rewrote watchdog and submission throttle and removed watchdog.inc
- improved robustness of sections.inc
- imporved story.module
- updated ./database/database.sql
- fixed small visual glitch in includes/function.inc
- changed SQL tables around a bit to be more consistent
(result: small changes to a lot of different files)
- improved robustness of includes/node.inc
- improved output of cron.module
- improved output of node.php
the index page will only display stories for now but this will/can
change in the near future
- all other files now thinks in terms of nodes, rather then stories
- added a couple of missing t() functions
- improved the comments module, fixed the score problem Jeroen
reported earlier -> it's slicker but I hope it won't break anything
certain users access to specific administration sections only.
Ex. a FAQ maintainer can only edit the FAQ, and members of an
"editorial board" can only edit comments, diaries and
stories, ..
- code review => rewrote include/user.inc which is much easier now
- fixed 4 small bugs
- replaced the "open submission queue" (submission.php and submission.inc)
with an optional module (submission.module).
- tidied up the HTML code of some files
This time I redid the "category"-stuff. Categories - from now on called sections - are now maintained from the admin pages, can have their own post, dump and timout thresholds as discussed earlier (some weeks ago). By tomorrow evening users will be able to enable or disable section as well - i.e. to customize the content of drop.org.
though but I think this is stable enough for public consumption and
real-life testing.
==> a first big step towards a flexible comment engine.
IMPORTANT:
- Required theme updatins:
UnConeD: check your $theme->controls() as I added a very, very
dummy implementation
- Required database updates:
alter table users modify mode tinyint(1) DEFAULT '' NOT NULL;
alter table comments change sid lid int(6) DEFAULT '0' NOT NULL;
alter table comments add link varchar(16) DEFAULT '' NOT NULL;
update comments set link = 'story';
IMPORTANT: you have to drop 2 tables "blocks" and "layout"
and you have to recreate them again with those
in database/database.mysql
- integrated the documentation written by UnConeD
integrated them were appropriate. It works better and the code is
more readable then it used to be:
(see http://drop.org/discussion.php?id=44&pid=0#0)
- story authors can no longer moderate their own stories
(requested by Natrak)
- fix inie-winnie small detail in theme marvin
- configuration:
+ renamed $db_name to $db_user
+ renamed $db_base to $db_name
- fixed small diary glitch
- fixed initial-comment-score problem
- fixed comment rating bug: improved the API and updated the
themes
- removed some tabs from Steven ;)
- fixed backend warnings and improved robustness
I'm not happy yet with the headline grabber - it generates
too many SQL errors.
- some small cosmetic changes in comment.module
- fixed minor glitch in format_interval()
- removed droplets
- added (optional) admin_blocks module
- added (optional) affiliate module
- added (optional) about module (only placeholder, under construction)
- fixed some tiny bugs (e.g. quote bug in search.php)
- partionally rewrote some modules to be big, bad and better
- partionally rewrote some modules to be more uniform
- added GNU GPL license to CVS
Also:
- installed PHP 4.0.4 on my localhost and now working
towards PHP 4.0.4 compatibility.
- I think I'll baptize the engine "drupal". If you have a
better idea, try convincing me ASAP.
Todo:
- more testing (also with PHP 4.0.4)
- make "project"-module: download, info, blah blah
- complete documentation
- I rearranged some of the code and clean-up some of the mess.
- Added "blocks" which can be user defined/controlled: check
to see. The positioning of blocks is rather basic for the
moment, so I'm all open for input on that.
