For certain content on a site, I want to implement "security by obscurity" by having the posts show up only in restricted views and by making the URLs for those posts a set of random, unguessable characters (like Microsoft does with GUID).

So, I need guidance in two parts:

1. What module (presumably CCK-related) or trick will create a set of random, unguessable characters that I can then use as replacement token in pathauto?

Hello,
I have recently switched to Drupal from Joomla, and my question may be basic:

I'd like to create a content type for adding testimonial quotes to any page. I'd like to have a quote field and a credit field designated so I can designate styles automatically.

I figured out how to make a fieldgroup with my two fields.

Is there a good way to repeat this fieldgroup three times in a page or story, and have it be easily editable so that you can have different quotes on each page?

Hi,

This is my first time converting theme..This is Joomla to Drupal.

And now Im stuck..

I have no idea how to theming the Block title.

The block title looks plain. I want the Block title to be in the "BlockTitleHere".

Using <?php print $block->subject ?> also not works

You can see the Block img in the attachment.

Thanks

Hello,
I am still new-ish to Drupal.

I recently moved my site from local machine to a test online site. When I try to create content, I get this:

warning: is_dir() [function.is-dir]: open_basedir restriction in effect. File(/Applications/MAMP/tmp/php) is not within the allowed path(s): (/var/www/vhosts/ermep.com/subdomains/test/httpdocs:/tmp) in /var/www/vhosts/ermep.com/subdomains/test/httpdocs/includes/file.inc on line 102.

Does anyone know how to embed a widget (or is there a Drupal Module) that will enable users to check for availability of domains?

I'm building a Drupal-based site on which users will request a new domain for their Drupal-based site. I'd like to determine availability of domains right from within my site, rather than sending them to a domain registrar.

How do I: When a new node is created by an anonymous visitor, how do I trigger an email to be sent to the email address stored in a CCK Email field ?

Scenario: Continuing with the scenario in HOWTO: Auto-create a cryptic URL Path, when an anonymous user creates a new node and puts their email address in a CCK Email field, I want to automatically send an acknowledgment to the email addresses stored in one or more email fields.

How Do I: When creating a new node, auto-create a cryptic URL path, similar to a "Replication ID" (like this: www.thesite.com/C560E5B2-6459-478C-A913-4C895D7D046C). Can I do this with some special token?

I know this is simple, but I haven't taken time to figure it out. So...how do I convert a node from one content type to another (e.g., from book page --> story)? When I do, does the node remain in the book outline?

OK...Following Ethan's comment and Moshe's reply about using this group to create a log/list of challenges and resolutions for Drupal implementations, here is a really simple one.

When displaying a node, how do I show the Organic Groups with which that node is associated, the way it's done on this site? I have OG installed on a couple of sites, but this feature doesn't seem to be provided out of the box. I'm guessing it's something that has been added to this GDO theme.
