NOTE: this patch works well, but the improved node edit form still has
some rough edges. It is important that we continue to improve
usability. Give it a try.
- permissions menu link updates in a number of modules help
- anchor link fix in distributed auth help
- "my account" link fix in user help
- spelling correction in tracker.module help
- I also changed 'admin/access/perms' to 'admin/access/permissions'.
- Clean up various SQL queries: removing literally inserted data (db_escape_string is evil!), fixing single "%" which should be "%%", fixing integers being compared as strings.
We added a 'severity' column to watchdog():
watchdog($type, $message, $link) --> watchdog($type, $message, $severity, $link);
* Specify a severity in case you are reporting a warning or error.
* The $link-parameter is now the fourth parameter instead of the third.
TODO: document this in the upgrade guide.
1) The different types of search, which used to be radio button options in the search form, are now subtabs of "search" (default "search/node"). This seems better from a UI point of view, but also has another advantage: modules which implement a custom search form (flexinode, project) can add it as a subtab of search. This means that all search forms will be located in the same place, and also without needing an extra api call to search.module.
2) The current code was a bit hackish, as the indexing of comments along with nodes was hardcoded in node.module. Instead, I created a nodeapi operation "update index" which allows modules to add more data for a node that is being indexed. Comments are now indexed using this mechanism and from comment.module, which is a lot cleaner.
3) The search results format was also hardcoded to include "N comments". I replaced this with a nodeapi operation "search result" and moved the comment code to comment.module where it belongs. This op is quite useful, as for example I also modified upload.module to add "N attachments" to a search result if any are present.
* Less logic in theme code.
* Encourages use of the menu system.
* Easier to find where a title or breadcrumb comes from in other people's code because there are less places to look. Look in menu and then grep for the appropriate set function. Looking for calls to theme_page() is hard because there are too many of them.
* Very slightly more efficient.
- Slight addition to INSTALL.txt with regard to PHP versions.
- Updated/reworded some node type descriptions as per Boris' suggestions.
- Adding missing {} around a table name in update.php.
1. Fixed broken watchdog calls: two watchdog calls omitted the type parameter, and thus injected logs into the type field, instead of the message field.
2. Removed t() functions from user contributed content.
