How to copy files using the command line

Copying files or directories with the GNU-Linux command line.

Resolution

When you're copying something with cp you list the file (or directory) you are copying first and the file (or directory) you are creating second.

cp -r existing_directory new_copy_of_existing_directory

Rebuild menu cache to force recognition of menus added while developing a module

Rebuild menus so that menu items and callbacks defined through the menu system take effect while you are developing a module.

Resolution

The quick fix:
menu_rebuild

I know I posted about this before, and it took me five minutes to find.

Anyhow, this is useful during development to clear and rebuild the menu cache, so that your menus added to a module (hook_menu) actually will show up for you, without reinstalling the module or something stupid.

Then immediately remove your call to menu_rebuild!

Setting number of nodes to display in a category view

Warning: How not to write documentation

The below - which has been accurately documented elsewhere I think - demonstrates the danger of documenting as one goes, instead of figuring something out and then documenting.

More category-specific information: To change the number of items (nodes) shown on a category page, go to Administer » Settings » Posts ( admin/settings/node ) and change the number of posts on main page.

Nope, apparently I'm wrong.

Ah yes, naturally:

Administer » Settings » Category
admin/settings/category
