Drupal tricks
Fri, 06/13/2008 - 22:31 — ucarI'm a little behind on all the things we've been working on around here. I just came across an interesting way to include one node into another and thought it was interesting enough to start a new entry. So place the following code into a node as php format and you can include other nodes inside nodes:
<?php
$node = node_load(464);
print node_view($node);
?>

Never Ending Battle
Fri, 12/28/2007 - 06:23 — ucarI'm still dealing with the 'niceties' of the office and I'm getting targeted as not communicating well enough with people such as my CCB friend and possibly others. I've been communicating all of the things that they need to know for the most part and trying to leave out the technical mumbo jumbo, even if I told them about all of that they wouldn't tell me they don't understand...
I've completed combing through the ASP site for the php conversion and a few tweaks here and there. Currently I'm just waiting on ASP to give me the thumbs up for the transition to go live.
Drupal Adventures Continue
Fri, 12/07/2007 - 06:23 — ucarToday I started further down the Drupal Rabbit hole. I brushed up the SERE drupal site by placing all scripts and css images in the theme folder. I've done a mass upload for any images that I think should go on the site and that way it's categorized and ready to go in image assist. So far I placed people and logos up, but I'm sure I'll have to further categorize and upload images as I get going.

Tue, 11/20/2007 - 04:35 — ucarI'm working on a drupal theme for the current site and thought I'd note some of the things I've been doing for future reference. First of all I've already solved this problem before but just had to look it up. The front page cuts the posts short if you don't tell it otherwise, so to fix this I placed the following tag at the end of the page so it would display in full:
<!--break-->
ASP ing
Mon, 11/19/2007 - 04:35 — ucarToday I updated and made the new top nav bar for the ASP pages live. This took lots of CSS code revamping and some of the images also needed to be revamped to look correct. I also corrected the blue line at the top of the page to look less choppy and rolled over the image fixes to all other sites. Scott has decided to stick with the side nav bar on the sub pages even though this is very repetitive.
I'm currently working on a drupal Ucar theme. So far it looks pretty close to the sere front page, but it still has a ways to go and I need to implement the menu correctly as well.
