Hi. I'm working on a drupal module, and one thing that it needs to do is modify the display of cck file fields automatically (using template files is not an option). For example, this array: $node->field_images[0]['view']; That is what I would like to get into. The 'view' part will output an image based on the display settings for ...

I'm using the Schema API to create tables for my module on Drupa 6.17, but the tables just do not get created in the database. I have the Schema module installed, and it tells me that while the schema for my module is recognized, its table is not in the database. It comes up under Missing: Tables in the schema that are not present in th...

I'm using node_load to load a node based on the value of one of its fields. If the field I'm testing against were uid for example, I would do it like this: $n1 = node_load(array('uid' => $val)); but this field sub1 is nested in an array field_val[0][sub1]. I tried putting quotes around the whole thing, but it didn't work. I tried othe...
Say you have a page callback from Module #1 using hook_menu(). You want to create Module #2 that would basically just append something on the bottom of Module #1's page callback (think of having some notes you wanted to add to the bottom of the page). How could you do this? My understanding is that you could use hook_menu_alter to compl...

I am using this function for that: global $user; $account; $account = user_load(array('uid' => arg(1))); if ( $user->uid == $account->uid ) { } I am doing that inside a module but it does not work.

Drupal provides these two methods for iterating through a db_query() result. For example, $users = array(); $result = db_query('SELECT uid FROM {users} WHERE status=0 AND login=0'); while ($row = db_fetch_object($result)) { $users[] = $row->uid; } However, it seems that db_fetch_array($result) could be used just the same here, onl...
