Replacing text that does NOT match a given string

Agaric likes to ask the hard questions...

ereg_replace beginning is not found
ereg_replace not present
ereg_replace not equal
ereg_replace character does not match

This is what Agaric came up with. We think that's what the ^ (carrot) character does in that context: negate, deny, exclude the following characters.

Using the . to also match on shttp, or any letter http if they've got others. Oh man, that's https and the . doesn't work that way anyway. Aborting that part of this.

From our scraper module, no, not right:

Ask Agaric: Unsubscribing from a Subscription to a Post

From a user of an Agaric client's site:

I was wondering if you could help me. I have subscribed to one of the forums and would like to unsubscribe. Can you tell me how to do so. Thank you.

To unsubscribe from content updates, go to your account:

http://example.org/user

Click on the "Subscriptions" tab. Most likely, uncheck any boxes you see (on the "threads" sub-tab that comes up by default), and press "Save".

Taxonomy Suggestion Accepter

A while back a client asked for the ability to accept taxonomy term (category) suggestions on his Drupal site. It's not what Community-Managed Taxonomy is meant for, but it's a potential application to keep in mind. Here's that request (that didn't go anywhere) and notes from the time:

Bibdesk and Biblio

Agaric wants to know...

Do bibdesk (open source bibliography desktop application for Mac) and biblio drupal module work together?

There's a possible connection, but it's not in English!

BibDesk | pabsta's groove
Je viens de découvrir BibDesk. C’est un GUI fait pour les Macs destiné ? ... J’ai également découvert le module biblio sur Drupal, mais qui semble mal ...

VotingAPI

flk: 15:58 < fago> another thing, what have you planned for the thesholds? when does your module apply the votes? <<< you could make use of the voting api for this
flk: it has 3 different strategies of applying votes

agaric: flk: I'll look at voting_api in this context
flk: :)

fago: flk: yeah, I also thought about this. perhaps it would be useful for storing votes...

Migrating a Shared-user Multisite install

Things to watch out for when moving a shared-user multisite install.

The biggest thing is that when moving a site to a different userbase, all the attribution will be screwed up, so you just can't do it. However, assuming that your moving a test site onto a live user install, but you want to migrate all that content you put up and configuration, and will reassign authorship in the database or manually, be sure to:

  • The subsite_ prefixed parts of the sequences table must be moved over. Export the table and copy that half the inserts for instance.
  • Theme Panels Module

    You can do a lot of theming with CSS. But what if you want to edit a template and you're using panels?

    If you insert your information or view as a block, you can theme the default block, as the block template panels uses.

    You can make the default block specific to panels by making region-specific block templates for all your other regions!

    May future keyword searches be more successful than ours were:
    theme panels drupal

    Ask Agaric: Two events in one day?

    I have a question about the calendar feature on the website. I can't seem to edit the calendar to go back and put a second event on the same day. An example is on the last Monday in June I have the first day of camp listed but would like to add the first concert on the common as well which goes from 7-9. Could you give me some help as how to do this.
