I am writing a title formatter for display suite, but title isn't a 'CCK' type. Can anyone help me out with how to define the formatter ?
Since title is a property, not a field, you cannot use a field formatter.
You'll need to take another approach to solve this problem, for example override the node template file, implement a hook_preprocess function, or implement hook_node_view.
edit:
There are lots of discussions about properties versus fields.
Here are some links to get you started with some background about why title is still a property, as well as some related modules.
http://drupal.org/node/557292 - Issue: Convert node title to fields
http://drupal.org/node/571654 - Issue: Revert node titles as fields
Note: I have not used all these modules and do not endorse them in any way, and don't claim that they address your question. This is just a short listing for your edification:
http://drupal.org/project/title
http://drupal.org/project/auto_nodetitle
http://drupal.org/project/title_field_ui
What do you mean the title isn't a "CCK" type? It should be a Field. Try this module: http://drupal.org/project/custom_formatters
There is an issue for the custom formatters module about that: #816924: Custom formatter for title field?

I have problem with custom placeholder. I am using this https://github.com/mareczek/international-phone-number I want to add more ex. E.g. 131123456789 to my place holder which default gave something like this 131123456789. I read the document they use customPlaceholder to custom place holder, but they do not have any example with angularjs, so could someone show me example code with custom place holder like this.
Here my code that I added to my app
app.config([
'$stateProvider',
ipnConfig,
register_form_state
])->ipnConfig.customPlaceholder = 'E.g. 131123456789'
but it doesn't work for me.
This will solve this problem

On selection of country, placeholder will change
The documentation for http://hodgepodgers.github.io/ng-intl-tel-input/ is lacking, but it seems like it could be a good tool. I think I would personally like to see a working implementation inside of an existing application before I'd rule it as the solution to use. I'm still having trouble implementing this one compared to the one by mareczek.
edit To answer your question, I think that it changes the placeholder based on the flag you have selected. If you have it set to a default country, can you not just change the placeholder in the html? Or can you target it directly using css?
Here I want to know how to get the field values of my custom content type 'mypop'. I tried all methods in google but I don't know how to use, for example i tried function node_load, I can't able to know where to write this function, what are the parameters and tried EntityFieldQuery too. Can I know the how to do it in brief explaination.
Thanks in Advance.
Definitely a very broad question. Assuming you have the content type 'mypop' created already, think the easiest steps for you would be to:
Make sure you create some content of that content type
Customize the "Manage Display" on that content type and make sure the fields you want are set to visible there
Once you do this, those fields should be visible when you view the nodes of that content type already. If you want to further customize the view, you should probably customize the template file for that specific content type (there's other options but trying to keep this as simple as possible).
To do this, copy the "node.tpl.php" file you'll find on the modules/node folder to your theme templates folder and change it's name to be "node--mypop.tpl.php".
That way, you'll override Drupal's default display template for that specific content type only. Now you can basically tweak it into anyway you want.
Hope this helps!
Thanks a lot Alberto. Its working now! I have another issue too, it also got cleared and now its working fine !Another issue is javascript called automatically when I open views edit for other contents. Now by doing overriding this template file, it also gets cleared. Thank you !
node_load take node id. So in order to use noad_load() function, you should first retrieve node ids. Better if you use noad_load_multiple().
// Query all of the nids of a particular content type.
$nids = db_select('node', 'n')
->fields('n', array('nid'))
->condition('type', 'Article', '=')
->execute()
->fetchCol();
// Get all of the article nodes.
$nodes = node_load_multiple($nids);
You can see the result by calling print_r($nodes). Just write a normal function in you .module file or .inc file. Call it anywhere, your choice. say, in menu callback.
Ok I found this wonderful idea on code project.
link
The idea is great add all your data templates to collection in your list box. Tell each one what to look for (a type) and what data template to use when it runs into that type. The problem is that the included source code is different from the on page code and I can't seen to get any combination of it to work. Even adding the missing quotation marks and changing the type to a local class instead of the non-accessible string and int32 classes.
So the question is. What am I doing wrong?

Should be totally redundant when you have DataTemplate.DataType.
(Example)
I am using the openlayers addressfield, geocode and geofield modules in Drupal7 to let the users create content with relevant geodata. But for some content there is no streetname available. So i would like to have a prezoomed maparea where the user can click in and flag the right position, instead of typing in the addressfield.
I tried to use the geofield with the "Openlayers Widget Map", but it's not exactly what i need.
Does anybody know how to use the modules for that?
Is there a tutorial for that?
Kind Regards
Michi
thx for answering!
Yes, in theory it works. I tried it befor with the geofield module.
And yes, i could see the map in the contenttype form while creating a node.
But i havn't found a way to prezoom the map into relevant places (or use the geolocate bevahior for that) or change the marker style for that geofield map. The only mapstyle i can choose in the contenttype field setting is the "geofield widget map". So i have no choice to use an individual prezoomed map with own marker styles.
Changing the "OpenLayers Default Map" in the openlayers settings makes no difference.
So maybe i've overlooked something to customize the geofield, but the module has no configuration link. So without some more configurations, the module is not practicable for users to flag a node with geofield.
Any other ideas or informations?
You can do this with the Geofield module: http://drupal.org/project/geofield
When you enable that module, you can add a Geofield field on your content type and set the widget to be an 'Openlayers Map'... the geofield field lets you input geographic information in a variety of ways, but just clicking on a map is one way. It probably uses the default zoom and center you have saved for your Openlayers map.
Try that out and let us know if it worked!!
Here are the options for entering in address information via Geofield:
First time poster here, I'm a designer not skilled at all with php and I have a small issue I don't seem to be able to solve. I'm making a site in drupal 7 using a sub theme on zen.
Btw this is a great CMS, even though people say it's really more a developers CMS. I have no trouble to do what I need using views, rules, display suite etc. So a big thank you for all the developers out there making this such a good CMS. But for this apparently simple problem... no module will help me (I think) and I'm kinda stuck.
So here it is: I'd like to add a subtitle next to the title in all my pages.
So what I did was to add a custom field into the content type basic page (machine name: field_sub_title) which is a simple text field.
I uncommented the following line in my template.php
function mytheme_preprocess_page(&$variables, $hook) {
$variables['sub_title'] = t('field_sub_title');
}
Now my question is how do I load the content of my custom field into that variable?
I know i need to change the second part, but I don't have a clue as into what I need to change this.
Displaying the variable into the the page.tpl.php is something I know about so I only need help with the first part.
{EDIT}
Ok I found how to do this :)
I was looking for a solution in the wrong place. I don't need to change any thing in the template.php file.
Just needed to add this bit of code into my page.tpl.php:
<?php
print $node->field_sub_title['und'][0]['value'];
?>
So I'm posting this here for other Drupal newbies struggling with this....
Your solution may work for now, but there may be a more Drupal-y way to handle a problem like this. If you haven't noticed any problems yet, you may find one or more of the following issues down the road:
Someone who doesn't know php or Drupal theming may need to change the way this works.
If you're like me, you may forget where exactly in code this was implemented.
You may see superfluous markup and/or errors on nodes (content) that do not have this sub-title field (ie. event content not having a sub-title field while basic pages and news articles do).
When you add a field to a content type, it will automatically appear anytime content in that content type is displayed. You should be able to add the sub-title field for your page, event or whatever else you need and have it automatically appear in the markup.
You can 'manage display' of a content type to drag and drop the order for fields to appear. You could take it a step further by using a module like Display Suite to add formatting or layout per-content type.
If you feel like this isn't good enough and the markup for the subtitle must be at the same level as the page title (which is rare), at least add an if statement to make your code check to see if the variable is present before trying to print it. I'd also add a new variable and comments for code readability.
<?php
$subtitle = $node->field_sub_title['und'][0]['value'];
if($subtitle){
print $subtitle;
}
?>
Consider using field_get_items or field_view_value, or at least use the LANGUAGE_NONE constant instead of 'und'
See https://api.drupal.org/api/drupal/modules%21field%21field.module/function/field_get_items/7 and https://api.drupal.org/api/drupal/modules!field!field.module/function/field_view_value/7
This has the added benefit of reducing the number of potential security holes you create.
