===== Calendar Events ==

All is done on Drupal 6.9 / [[http://www.drupaltherapy.com/node/76|information source]] (screencast) / [[drupal>node/262062|General info]]

==== Basic principle ==

  - Create a new content (node) type for events
  - Add a date field to this new event type

FIXME

==== Detailled Instructions ==

  - Enable in Administer -> Modules 
    * CCK: ''Content'' (and optionally  ''Number'', ''Option widgets'' & ''Text'' for later usage)
    * Date/Time: ''Calendar'', ''Date'', ''Date API'' & ''Date Timezone''
    * Views: ''Views'' & ''Views UI''
  - Set Timezone anew in Administer -> Date and time
  - Administer -> Content types -> Add content type: 
    * Name: Event, Type: event (proposal)
    * Uncheck: Workflow settings -> Default options -> Promoted to front page
  - Administer -> Content types -> "Event" -> Manage fields
    * Add new field: Label: Date; field name: field_date; Field type: Date; Widget: Select list
    * Save
    * Global Settings -> Required: yes; Global Settings -> To Date: optional
    * Save
  - Administer -> Blocks: Enable Upcoming
  - Administer -> Views -> calander -> Enable
  - Administer -> Views -> calander -> edit -> Defaults:
    * Arguments: ''Date: Date Content: Datum (field_datum value)''
    * Fields ''Node: Title'' (remove date field)
    * Sort criteria: ''Content: Datum (field_datum value) asc''
  - Administer -> Views -> calander -> edit -> Upcoming: (Take care not to overwrite the Defaults when editing this view!)
    * Arguments ->  Date: Date -> Granularity: Day (Overwrite Upcoming, don't modfy Default!)
    * Fields:
      * ''Node: Title''
      * ''Content: Datum (field_datum value) Short''
    * Filters: 
      * ''Node: Published Yes''
      * ''Date: Date Content: Datum (field_datum value) >= now''

===== WYSIWYG with FCKEditor ==

  - Download the [[drupal>project/fckeditor|module]] and the [[http://www.fckeditor.net/download|editor]]
  - Follow the instructions in ''README.TXT'' of the Module :!:
    - Install module and editor
    - Enable the module in ''Administer -> Modules''
    - Grant ''fckeditor access'' permissions for user with story/page write access (eg. self-created role ''authors'') and ''authenticated users''
    - Under ''Administer -> FCKeditor'', allow ''authors'' to use the advanced profile and optionally ''authenticated users'' to use the default profile
    - Under ''Administer -> Input formats'' 
      - Make ''Filtered HTML'' the default format
      - Add the tags ''<p> <br />'' to the list of allowed HTML tags in ''Filtered HTML'' 
      - Allow the role authors to use ''Full HTML''
      - Uncheck Line break converter in both formats
  - Optionally disable the conversion of special characters to HTML entities by adding the line ''FCKConfig.ProcessHTMLEntities = false;'' to the file ''/sites/all/modules/fckeditor/fckeditor.config.js'' (Source: REAMDE of fckeditor drupal module)

===== Handling Images ==

The [[drupal>project/image|image module]] is easy to use and allows to add one image per node. See [[drupal>node/191718|Attaching images to other nodes]].

===== Install additional Modules ==

See [[drupal>documentation/install/modules-themes/modules-5-6]]

===== Install a different Language ==

Update: It seems to be better to select the default language at installation (Drupal 6.9) --- 2009-01-19

This refers to Drupal 6.2:
  * Downlad a language tarball from drupal>project/Translations
  * Enable: Administer -> Site building -> Modules -> Locale
  * Upload language tarball to drupa root dir and unpack it
  * Home › Administer › Site configuration > Languages > Add language
  * Make new language the default language on the same page

===== Cron ==

Some modules need to be triggered periodically. This is done by calling the script /drupal/cron.php with lynx. Therfore add a hourly conjob. With Slackware this is achieved by simply creating and making runnable ''/etc/cron.hourly/drupal'' whith the following content:
<code bash>
#!/bin/bash
lynx -source http://localhost/drupal/cron.php
</code>

===== Update modules ==

  - Log into your Drupal install with HTTP as Admin
  - Check if they are up to date in ''drupal/admin/reports/updates''
  - Place the site in "Off-line" mode in ''drupal/admin/settings/site-maintenance''
  - cd drupal/sites/all; cp -a modules modules.new
  - Download new module tarballs into modules.new/ with wget
  - Remove outdated module dirs in modules.new
  - Unpack and remove tarballs
  - Merge your changed in module config files into the new config files
  - mv modules modules.old; mv modules.new modules
  - Point Browser to %%http://<mysite>/drupal/update.php%% and follow instructions

===== Minor Update Drupal Core ==

  - Log into your Drupal install with HTTP as Admin an go to %%http://<mysite>/drupal/admin/reports/updates%% and copy Link to latest core package into clipboard
  - Log into your Drupal server with SSH and download core package with wget
  - Extract core package in your web root (near old core package)
  - Read drupal.new/UPGRADE.txt
  - Place the site in "Off-line" mode in ''drupal/admin/settings/site-maintenance''
  - Backup db with ''mysqldump --default-character-set=utf8 --user=<user> --password=<pass> --opt <dbname> > dbbak.sql''
  - Switch to Garland or Bluemarine core theme ''drupal/admin/build/themes''
  - Write down all custom and contributed modules ''drupal/admin/build/modules'' and save it into drupal.new/MY_MODULES (to reuse it for later updates)
  - Disable all custom and contributed modules (all exept 'Core - required')
  - Merge your custom changes (ie. database access data) of drupal/sites/default/settings.php into newly created drupal.new/sites/default/settings.php (use eg diff3 -m)
  - cd drupal/sites/all; cp -a modules themes drupal.new/sites/all/
  - cd drupal/sites/default; cp files drupal.new/sites/default/
  - cd <wwwroot>; rm drupal; ln -s drupal.new drupal
  - Point Browser to %%http://<mysite>/drupal/update.php%% and follow instructions
  - Re-enable custom and contributed modules and check if they are up to date in ''drupal/admin/reports/updates''
  - Update all outdated modules
  - Return the site to its original theme
  - Return your site to Online

=====  Major Upgrade Drupal Core ==

  - Minor Update Drupal Core

FIXME

===== Install Drupal Core ==

  * Download and extract Drupal somewhere in apache document root, on Slackware /var/www/htdocs. Maybe its better not to extract directly on the server but to ftp the files up to the server, because otherwise you get strange permissions for the directories i.e. ''drwxr-sr-x'' instead of ''drwxr-xr-x''
  * Symlink drupal -> drupal-<versionnumber>
  * chown -R nobody:nobody /var/www/htdocs/drupal/* :?: Maybe it's more secure to just give write permission to only the files wich drupal wants to edit, eg. drupal/sites/default/settings.php
  * Make sure that you use PHP5 not 4. Otherwise you may get an error message about ''register_globals'' being illegally on. You can check this by creating a file containing "''<?php phpinfo(); ?>''" inside the drupal directory on your server. You can switch to PHP5 by adding the line "''AddHandler php-fastcgi5 .php .php5''" to the file ''.htaccess'' in the drupal directory.
  * Point your Browser to %%http://yourhostname/drupal%% and follow installation instructions.

Obsolete instructins for drupal 5.2:

  * Create the drupal database by help of INSTALL.mysql.txt. Don't omit ''@localhost'' in the SQL statement :!: Otherwise you might not connect to the database. (See column ''mysql.user.Host'')
  * Create administrator account
  * Create a directory called 'files' in root dir of drupal and make it writable by httpd

===== Test / Todo ==

  * Check out ''Views exporter''
  * Taxonomie
    * Test [[drupal>node/81589|VIEWS Module]]
    * How to link Categories? /
    * Understand and setup [[drupal>handbook/modules/taxonomy|Taxonomy]] or [[http://category.greenash.net.au/|Categories]]; see also [[drupal>node/46268|Understanding categories for new users]]

===== Attic ==
==== WYSIWYG with Tinymce ==

This paragraph is obsolete!

[[drupal>project/tinymce|Download]] tinymce module and follow the instructions in INSTALL.txt and optionally at the [[drupal>handbook/modules/tinymce|Drupal Handbook]]

Notes:
  * If seems better to try additonal features (eg images) with WYSIWYG turned off in order to get the proper source code and then perhaps config tinymce to produce that source code.
  * Images to be set up with tinymce.
  * For config HTML-Filters see: [[drupal>node/59769]]
  * There is also a FCKEditor module, but Tinymce seems to be more lightweight & better supported
  * [[http://www.theempowerment.com/mediawikiisobsolete|Recommendation]] for tinymce & freelinking instead of a wiki
