A Great Virtual Assistant!

Alexis Wilke — Wed, 18 Apr 2012 23:31:18 +0000

Today I wanted to thank one of my suppliers: Virtual Assistant Service PH.

It was a breeze to work with them, of course I'm also details oriented and thus I provide detailed documents to do the work.

For me, they converted an entire website in less than a week. Nearly 400 pages of data! That was fantastic since I definitively do not have time to do such a thing and plus I am not affordable for that kind of work. So having such an assistant was wonderful.

Maybe they will save your day too!

MobileKey Installation

Alexis Wilke — Mon, 16 May 2011 18:12:40 +0000

Get the tarball or the zip file of the module from Drupal.org (MobileKey on Drupal).

Go to one of you module folders and extract the file you downloaded.

The default installation folder is sites/all/modules, if you have a multi-site installation and want the module for just a few sites, go to sites/<sitename>/modules instead (create the modules folder if it doesn't exist yet.) It is recommended that you do not install under the top modules folder as this one is reserved for Drupal Core modules.

At that point, go to your Drupal website and go to Administer » Site building » ...

Protected Node Global Settings

The protected node module has global settings found under:

Administer » Site configuration » Protected node

Protected node Statistics

The page starts with statistics to let you know how pages are protected on your website. All the counts include published and unpublished content.

Total nodes — the total number of nodes on your website
Unprotected nodes — number of nodes that do not have a password
Protected nodes — number of nodes that are current protected by a password
- Showing title — number of nodes showing their title

Protected Node Installation

Alexis Wilke — Wed, 27 Apr 2011 23:56:31 +0000

The basics of the Protected Node installation are easy:

Get one of the tarball from Drupal.org
Extract the files under sites/all/modules or some other modules folder
Go to Administer » Site building » Modules and install the module (package Access)
As the administrator (UID = 1) you are done.

Once you have installed the module, you probably want to change the permissions. Permissions allow your users to access the Protected Node functionality based on their roles. Please, see the point about Permissions for more information about those.

Now, you're ready ...

Insert Node Parameter: webform (6-1.3)

Alexis Wilke — Sat, 26 Feb 2011 21:57:22 +0000

Insert the form of a webform node. With this parameter you include the form that you defined in a webform in any node. The complete form will be included and fully functional. Remember, however, that the destination on save defined in the webform will be effective here too (although the default is to stay on the same page, which works as expected.)

The parameter is ignored if the referenced node is not a webform or if the webform module is not enabled.

gVim editor in SeaMonkey and FireFox

Alexis Wilke — Mon, 03 Jan 2011 07:20:38 +0000

Today I discovered It's All Text. This is a FireFox (also works in SeaMonkey) extension that gives you the capability of editing a box of text in your favorite editor.

I love to use SeaMonkey, but the text editor is a bit light when it comes to writing code or fix broken HTML. To palliate to this problem, I often copy and paste the content of my posts from SeaMonkey to gVim, my favorite editor, apply the fixes lightning fast, and then copy the result back in SeaMonkey before saving.

This is a rather tedious process and prone to mistakes. To avoid problems, you can instead install ...

Snap! Form Country Component

Creating a Country Component

The Snap! Form feature is useful to create a form that your visitors fill up with information that you can then access in your website submissions and receive in an email.

When you want to ask the user to enter the name of their country, you can offer a freestyle text field. The problem with those is that people can enter anything they want...
