  • Hopefully a simple question...

    I'm trying to get my head around Drupal theming...

    I have a tagadelic block with links of users' interests. I click on a link (eg surfing) and it shows a list of user profiles who like to surf.

    How to I theme the user profile list? I tried copying node.tpl.php to profile-node.tpl.php but off course that changes the profile node page view as well.

    To recap, I want to theme a user profile as a summary to show in taxonomy and search lists.

    Any help please?

    Thanks,

    Steve

  • How to handle a variable URL?

    Problem:

    I have links within my content with URLs such as:

    /bible/book/john/3/16
    /bible/book/genesis/1/2/3/4
    etc

    No actual nodes exist for any of these URLs, so what I need is a "catch all" mechanism that handles a path with the following regular expression:

    /bible/book/(w+)/(d+)?/(d+)?/(d+)?/(d+)?

    The process would then load the appropriate bible content based on the parameters in the URL.

    Does any module exist that can do this, or what would I have to do to make it work?

    Thanks,

    Steve

  • What is the correct way to access CCK fields within a theme file?

    Hi,

    I've created a few custom user profile fields using the Content Profile module.

    In my theme file I can view the new fields using the following code:

    $var = $content_profile->get_variables('user_profile');
    print_r($var);

    Now, I could access each field like this:

    print $var['field_first_name'][0]['value'];

    But is this the "correct" way of getting the field value? Is there a standard/best practice way to do this?

    Thanks,

    Steve

  • Newbie: User profile fields and custom template...

    I'm a relative newbie to Drupal.

    I'm trying to create a custom user profile template. I've added the Content Profile module and created a few new fields (first name, last name, etc..). Next, I created a user-profile.tpl.php template, the problem now is figuring out how to access the custom fields within this template.

    Doing a var_dump($user); or var_dump($account); does not reveal these custom fields.

    So, how do I access these fields?

    Thanks,

    Steve
