Community tagging solutions for Drupal, a comparision

From Gábor Hojtsy:

if you need real folksonomy support (per user tagging, editing of own tags, personal tag clouds but still powering a common tag set), you need to look into a contributed module. Interestingly there are two similar solutions for the problem: the community_tags module and the taxonomy_user module. Since I need this functionality for a project, I needed to look at them, so here is a rundown of the differences I see from looking at their implementation.

Possible to accidentally replace entered text with undefined from Drupal's autocomplete

Anyone else notice that on free tagging vocabularies, when no result comes up but you press the down arrow anyway, your text can be replaced wih 'undefined'?

Update: I think this piece in misc/autocomplete.js is working fine:

 
  // If no value in the textfield, do not show the popup.
  if (!this.input.value.length) {
    return false;
  }

The creation of the pop-up is probably earlier than it has to be, maybe it can be called earlier.

Resolution

Configuration with a module

This came innto my head as a new idea, but I realize that this is just a rehashing of my partial installation profile.

Use case: make the navigation block show up only for logged in users, and expand the create content link.

We at Agaric Design Collective do that all the time, can probably just go in the Agaric Starter Profile, but it'd be nice to do as a module if possible.

Resolution

Replace access denied on user/register for logged-in users with a redirect

Best resource on this that I've found:

logged-in user + /user/register -> access denied
http://drupal.org/node/118498

There's no reason for this-- even user #1 gets access denied here, and users who could go to admin/user/user/create -- access denied might be technically correct, you can't re-register, but it's nonsensical and annoying.

Amazing places? Towards an open database of location data.

Combined with community-managed taxonomy, I can see this making it possible for us (Drupal users and people who care about open knowledge) to create our own definitive geographic listing.

Right now place module only understands points, but once I understand geo well enough to use that method of storing location information instead... I'm sure it too can be democratized to allow the feedback of millions of people to identify what's where.

I'm at latitude and longitude such and such, and I am inside Natick!

Agaric would host a server to aggregate the votes...

Drush problems with... json?

PHP Warning: Module 'json' already loaded in Unknown on line 0
drush 5.x-1.0-beta4

Followed these instructions (modified for Apache) but they didn't help.

(If you've installed the module php5-json and get warnings like this one:

PHP Warning: Module 'json' already loaded in Unknown on line 0

it means that the module got loaded twice. Open /etc/php5/cgi/php.ini, scroll down to the end and comment out the line extension=json.so:

Pathauto integration for Place

Place and/or taxonomy_location should be integrated with pathauto, see for inspiration: http://drupal.org/project/pathauto_extension (which originally added location options to pathauto as another module and is now being merged into it as a patch.)
