Building a community site with Drupal and modules

Who says you need to be a PHP developer to build a community site with Drupal ;)

A quick thank you note to...

Robert Douglass
Just wanted to say a big thank you to Robert Douglass who kindly took the time to contact me (and many other selected bloggers) to asked if we wish to have our site added to The Drupal planet. Couldn't turn this down, hell yeah! :-)

For those that know little about Robert Douglass (and shame on you not to know) - He is a long term contributor to the Drupal community (check his impressive list of contrib modules). He recently joined Acquia as a Senior Drupal Advisor.

Site updated to Drupal 5.8

Just updated this site to Drupal 5.8. It seems everything is fine but as you can see from the tab blocks, it's broken. :(

Can't seem to pinpoint where it went wrong so will need to continue digging for clues. Bloody annoying when these little things happen as it really messes up the whole design since the tab really pulls it together. Oh! well i'm sure a fix is just around the corner. Better get some sleep for now... sigh!

UPDATE (30th July):
Sorry late posting (been busy) but just a quick note to say that Drupal 5.9 fixes all the issues encountered in this post. :)  read more »

Path redirect with Drupal

Today, while I was doing a quick search on Google on my own site to see what result it will bring up, I was surprised to find a broken link which took a user to /taxonomy/term/CrossBrowserTesting.com page that doesn't exist on my site. I really don't know how that link ever popped up on Google.  read more »
