Views Sorting Gotchas: If using group by, also sort; and in all sorts make sure the field exists!

Submitted by dhakimzadeh on November 18, 2009 - 1:27am

Interesting... you need to sort by the same field you group by, or on a paged view the grouping is done per page!

And in a different view, a different, dumber problem...

drupal views datestamp sort
drupal convert datestamp to date

Datestamp wasn't the problem. Trying to sort on a field that didn't exist for that node type was! It appears to react to nonsense by sorting randomly, which I guess is fair...

How to add a node id to a page's CSS classes

Submitted by Benjamin Melançon on November 17, 2009 - 7:36am

If your page.tpl.php already prints $body_classes (or equivalent) in the <body> tag, then you likely need only to add a single line to have the nid included with a class such as "node-1".

Agaric wants to automatically repeat top-level primary links as the first child of itself

Submitted by Benjamin Melançon on November 17, 2009 - 2:26am

drupal repeat top menu item in dropdown
repeat top menu items drupal
repeat Primary Links dropdown drupal
drupal duplicate main menu items

Request: "The titles can also be clicked and should be included in the dropdown menu." Understood now: Each top-level primary link will be repeated in the drop-down menu. This gets around the fact that many people will not realize they can click on the menu item itself as well as the dropdowns.

Link to a changeset in Trac

Changeset
trac changeset link wiki syntax
trac changeset link display title

Trac print title of git changeset

[changeset:7a03c65500c4b96859a27bf5be2901e4ec42afdd]

gives you the title as a tooltip on hover.

More ways of doing this (where the title automatically becomes the anchor text, for example) does not seem to be an option. Have to live with the tooltip and any self-titling we want to pull off, i guess.

Having trac header logo link to the project's trac home even when it is in a subdirectory

Submitted by Benjamin Melançon on November 11, 2009 - 9:13am

Getting trac to use the proper path for the link to home in its logo or sitename position.

sudo vi /srv/trac/projectname/conf/trac.ini


[header_logo]
link = /projectname

And you're done!

To automate this, we have to figure out how are project specific settings set in trac on initialization.

So I ask Stefan.

Do you happen to know how project-specific settings are inserted into the trac.ini? I can't find it.
Any new project is set up already with:
