hi i m new to drupal i want to know that how could i add my custom page for the display the some information which is come from databases, i have create that page in core php (for example information.php)but i want to add that page in drupal 7 how it is possible
looking for the quick and best reply
The quickest way would be to add a content type "Information" to your drupal site, rename your information.php file to node--information.tpl.php and use the Drupal Database API to get stuff from your database. Finally you'd want to put node--information.tpl.php in your theme/%themename/templates/ folder and add new content with the Content Type "Information".
The best way would be to make a new module. Build your menu structure and add a theming function that calls a template file. When calling the template file using theme(), pass along the data that needs to be displayed.
In addition you might want to check out the Custom Page module: http://drupal.org/project/custompage

How to change home page content in DNN while creating a site itself.
I need to change different page. I created a new page and created Template. And I replaced inside Templates folder named (Default. page. template). But it is not working out. Provide me a better solution.
Probably the easiest way to do this is to create a site using the default template, edit that site to create your own site, and then save that as a site template (suitable named). You can then use that site template to create sites with the page structure that you want.
The default page template (I believe) is used when you create new pages using the the Pages UI. I don't believe that the default page template is used by the default site template.
If you have created a page and would like to apply a specific page template to the new page retroactively. To do this, go to the page that you want to change and append ?ctl=ImportTab to the url. That will bring up a dialog that allows you to change the emplate for a page with lots of options. It
I'm looking to edit Drupal's admin pages.
Some of the things I'm trying to achieve:
Remove is the the filter setting on the Content page/node/view. In other words, if I go to to the Content page and I filter by a certain type of node, then I leave that page, then come back, the filter setting is saved, I'd like it to reset each time I visit the Content page.
I would like to modify some of links associated with these pages, as an example on that Same Content page, the titles of the pages are linked to their 'front-end' views, I'd rather have them link to their 'edit' screens.
While I have been successful in modifying the front-end theme of Drupal, by editing the actual php files. I can't find the the same php files for the Admin theme. In our case we are using Seven (7.21). I've read something about views, and thought maybe the entire Admin theme is built as views, aka there no php files involved like the front-end theme has, but under the Views section I did not find any either. I'm still pretty new at this and coming from the Wordpress world, this is a Drupal is a lot different.
The logic for that section of the admin area is at (from the public root):
/modules/node
Specifically "node.admin.inc"
That being said, I don't recommend editing core scripts, as they will be overwritten when you update the core.
You could explore making your own module to supplement that page, or your own view or explore some pre-made modules, such as "Admin Views"
Find de view displayed and go to its configuration :
1 - Edit configuration view like suggested here : https://drupal.stackexchange.com/questions/44440/how-to-remember-exposed-filter-choices
2 - Rewrite output views to rewrite link : field https://www.drupal.org/node/1578524
Another option is to create and use your own dashboard/views to achive like you want http://definitivedrupal.org/suggestions/creating-custom-administrator-view-content
also you can see contrib module : https://www.drupal.org/project/admin_views
You don't have to use that default content overview page at all. Make your own instead:
Make a page view (you have to install views module if you already did not: https://www.drupal.org/project/views) and use table layout. Make sure that page paths starts with "admin" so it will use admin theme. Also pay attention about permissions, so only specific set of users (admins) can use it.
For that view you can freely select what columns you what to show. You can also allow ordering by any column and action if you click on some field.
Use exposed filters to add filtering form, again add any filters you need. You can even set the form to use AJAX, to do auto-submit when some filter field is changed, include reset button and more. Also for every exposed filed you can select (at fields settings) should it remember it's value or not.
At end, edit admin menu and add your new page to it so it will look and act as default one but will offer much more functionality. You can even totally remove default one from the admin menu.
Views module is very powerful, not only for front-end but also for back-end content handling.
I created a page within dnn (v9.0.2, 2sxc 8.12.0) with all modules (only 2sxc content modules) like the page design had defined it. After this I created a template from this page. After this I created a couple of sites using this template.
My problem is, if I change the content of module A on page 1 - all modules A on the other pages 2..n of this template have this content now too. Same effect, if I use the duplicate functionality.
Does anyone have a hint how to use page temlating using 2sxc content modules?
What you need to do is open the template file in an editor and locate the section that describes the module. The best way to do this is to find the EntityId of the content item on the page from which you created the template. Then, find that number string in the template. Just remove the string, leaving the XML node otherwise intact.
When you build the page, you'll get a 2sxc module that is uninitialized and you'll need to specify the content.
If anyone is listening, I wish that this behavior was different. I'd prefer that the template assigned to the module could be preserved, but with the default content showing.
Basically the issue is that DNN has only one way to export a page, and we would need something where our code could contribute something before the export is complete.
At the moment there are two ways to do this.
One way is to use the method described by Joe, modifying the XML export
The other way is to place un-initialized blocks on the template page - meaning that you select your content-type / template, or your app, but don't start adding any content yet. This should result in the identical XML as the one modified manually.
I've inherited a Drupal site. I need to extract the post data only post title and url of it, out of the site to be able to import it into a different system, but I've never used Drupal and the site is live so I need to tread carefully in order to extract the data without affecting the site.
I try use this Export But canot understan use it, Sow How can i do that. and if any code to export data without modules or views tell me
So, How can export all post from my site that created after 1/1/2014
This is quite easy with drupal views.
Download and enable views, views excel import. -
http://drupal.org/project/views,
https://www.drupal.org/project/views_export_xls
Create an new views page (structure - views), set filter criteria for the type of content you like and date created criteria, set format to display fields. Add both title and link as fields (remove
wrappers if any).
Once you've completed 1,2 add new display to same view called Feed,
following from the module doc:
Add a new "Feed" display to your view.
Change its style to "XLS file"
Configure the options (such as name, quote, etc.).
Give it a path in the Feed settings such as "path/to/xls".
Optionally, you can choose to attach this to another of your displays by updating the "Attach to:" option in feed settings.
Once you've finished, navigate to the path.
I am making one web-app using cakephp.
In that i want to use plug-in which can automatically find tags from content which is written by user so that user needn't have to write tags manually and if he/she wants to add more tags then he/she can add manually.
And my question is that is:
Is there any plug-in available for that in cakephp and if there is than how can i use that in my application????
