Views creating blank rows? Check your node type filtering

The 'Items to Display' in Views is set to 10. The number of blank lines that show are the difference between the limit in Views and the actual number of items in the table. So in this example, there are 7 extra blank lines (odd/even coloring) in Firefox -- there are no extra blank lines in IE.

First of all look at the source code in both browsers and you'll see that's the same, and it might tell you more about what the extra lines are.

Embed, block, or page View with Panels?

Andy Laken explains: block view uses the configuration in the block portion of the view, and embed uses the page configuration options even if page is not checked off.

Ask Agaric: Copying webforms

Is it currently possible to clone webforms? This would save a lot of time. If it is possible right now, please let me know how to do it.

The node clone module should do it (see http://drupal.org/node/279135 )

Site expecting more traffic and the built-in Drupal response

A typical (well, sort of) heads up that a site will be under heavier load, and our minimal (very minimal) scaling precautions using Drupal's standard features.

Hey fellow media revolutionaries, I just wanted to let you know we'll
see an increased load on http://saveournet.ca today and likely for the
next couple weeks. I just launched a campaign.

It could be very big, but I've been known to over estimate this stuff.

Modules working but not visible from administer modules page!

This is a Drupal 5 site, and there was one piece of Ubercart functionality that wasn't showing up on the live site, as opposed to the test site, so we went to enable the module. And noticed not a single Ubercart module was listed at admin/build/modules even though Ubercart functionality was most certainly working on the site.

Yeah. Freakiest thing ever.

PayPal in Drupal 6 as of 2008 November: Three options... in dev

All three are in a fairly advanced state of development for Drupal 6 (but no release candidates yet), stable for Drupal 5:

Imagecache settings not available to any user except UID 1?

Seriously, what? Imagecache enabled, the role has every single permission checked, but no Imagecache under sitebuilding (or anywhere else) and the Administer by module listing just gives a link to imagecache permissions, which my user has, as if only to mock me.

Log in as user #1 and it works, the settings for imagecache are there. This is imagecache2 in a site that's been upgraded from Drupal 4.7 to Drupal 5 and Imagecaches 1 to 2.

Stella hasn't done an official release since June! (As of October 30.) But she has kept the amazing Lightbox2 up to date and working in the Drupal 6 dev branch; the latest development snapshot is from October 27 right now.
