TODO:
- Some modules such as the buddy list module and the annotation module in the contributions repository are also using session_register(). They should be updated. We should setup a task on Drupal.
- There is code emitting '<div align="right">' which doesn't validate.
- Does our XML feeds validate with the charset changes?
- The forum module's SQL doesn't work properly on PostgreSQL.
- 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 $foo['bar'].
+ Updated the INSTALL and CHANGELOG files as well.
- Tiny improvement to the "./scripts/code-clean.sh" script.
- Removed all instances of '$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
"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."
+ 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.
+ Some improvements to make it look better on Windows. I don't
have Windows though so I can't really test it.
+ Fixed the character encoding and the doctype, and polished on
the XML well-formedness of the theme.
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.
- format_username() now takes a second optional parameter which gives the
real name of the user.
Rest
- updated the calls to format_username() where appropriate to show the name
of the user instead of the account id. Clicking on a name will still give you
the account info etc. If you find a place where the real name is not shown
let me know.
+ 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!
- Changed meta.module, node.module and index.php to use comma-seperated
lists of attributes rather then "foo=a,bar=b" lists. This makes it a
a lot easier to use both modules. In addition, error handling can be
discarded as it can't be made any simpler, really ...
It fits rather nicely in Drupal's design so I'm getting more and more
happy with this meta.module (but we are not 100% there yet).
- node.module, node.inc:
+ Improved the node-related admin interface so that navigating back
and forth the administrative menus is made both easier and faster.
+ Removed some redundant database fields from the node table. See
2.00-to-x.xx.sql!
+ Added 2 news hooks called "node_insert" and "node_update". Just
like this is the case with the existing hook "node_delete" these
new hooks will automatically get called when a node has been
inserted or udpated. Note that this is an optional call-back that
only needs to be implemented when required. With the addition of
these two hooks, the node mechanism (version 1) is pretty well
completed.
- watchdog.module:
+ Fixed bug whit the 'regular messages' query in the watchdog.module.
- book.module:
+ Fixed bug in book.module: the 'parent' was not set properly when
updating a book page.
+ Made it so that older versions of a book page are automatically
reactived upon deletion of the most recent version, i.e. when
doing a version roll-back.
- comment.inc:
+ Undid Remco's patch to comment.inc; it does not work in some cases.
- conf.module:
+ Fine-tuned some of the options in conf.module a bit.
- marvin.theme:
+ Visual changes to make it look better on Windows browsers. Mind
to give some feedback on this?
+ Fixed 3 HTML typos/bugs.
+ XHTML-ified the theme at a best effort basis; I didn't carry the
XHTML specification with me.
+ Made use of the theme_slogan variable to display the site's slogan.
+ As soon we have at least one valid XHTML theme we can wonder on how
to integrate other XML namespaces (cfr. MathML story at drop.org).
- database.mysql:
+ Updated database.mysql so that it contains all the latest "database
patches".
'=' 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.
