Read the manual for pg_escape_string: "Use of this function is recommended instead of addslashes()." Or read sqlite_escape_string: "addslashes() should NOT be used to quote your strings for SQLite queries; it will lead to strange results when retrieving your data."
* Adds missing quotes around the username in "session closed" watchdog messages from user.module (session opened has quotes, but session closed does not).
* Changed "view detals" after watchdog entries to "details".
* slightly reorders the functions in anticipation of http://drupal.org/node/view/9010.
* reorders help definitions to match the alphabetical nature of the menu items.
* tweaked visual appearance of menu code (whitespace, etc.)
* minor tweaks to "warning" help to match style of others.
* @file header with a oneliner and blurb description about watchdog.module.
* standardized the text between admin/help#watchdog and admin/logs.
* tweaked the descriptions of log types available ever so slightly.
* removed anything that referred to the old settings page.
* added an assumed 'type' to one of the menu's.
CHANGES
-------
+ Introduced tabs. First, we extended the menu system to support tabs. Next, a tab was added for every link that was (1) an administrative action other than the implicit 'view' (2) relevant to that particular page only. This is illustrated by the fact that all tabs are verbs and that clicking a page's tab leads you to a subpage of that page.
+ Flattened the administration menu. The tabs helped simplify the navigation menu as I could separate 'actions' from 'navigation'. In addition, I removed the 'administer > configuration'-menu, renamed 'blocks' to 'sidebars' which I hope is a bit more descriptive, and made a couple more changes. Earlier, we already renamed 'taxonomy' to 'categorization' and we move 'statistics' under 'logs'.
+ Grouped settings. All settings have been grouped under 'administer > settings'.
TODO
----
+ Update core themes: only Xtemplate default supports tabs and even those look ugly. Need help.
+ Update contributed modules. The menu() hook changed drastically. Updating your code adhere the new menu() function should be 90% of the work. Moreover, ensure that your modue's admin links are still valid and that URLs to node get updated to the new scheme ('node/view/x' -> 'node/x').
administrators will be able to define a custom 403 page, just as they
can define 404 pages now.
This needs to be documented in the "Changes since / migrating to ..."
pages.
configurable! Menu items can be disabled, repositioned, added and
so on.
Upgrading to requires you to run update.php.
This functionality depricates some of the 'navigation modules' in the
contributions repository. Furthermore, modules can now 'suggest'
menu items and site adminstrators can choose to enable them. Modules
in the contributions repository should try to take advantage of this.
+ removes the lots of pagers and indirect pager themeing
+ add the theme_pager() function, which should be called as
theme("pager", ...) to get a pager.
Phase 2 of the menu system integration project. This unifies the interface
used by admin and non-admin pages, and deprecates the _page hook in favor of
explicit callbacks from menu(). Breadcrumbs, titles, and help text go away
as a result of this patch; they will return in the phase 3 patch, printed
by the theme.
1) As explained by Al, there is still a glitch with the 'create content'
menu.
2) The user module part of the patch did not apply due to Kjartan's earlier
patch.
