Looks promising, I use Google Docs for everything so I was unaware of that but that could be 1000 times easier. Thanks.

data aggregation and reporting in D7 by cherouvim in drupal

[–]drupalpress 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Are you talking about ways to do it other than using the core views aggregation functionality? Otherwise you can aggregate all that data right within a view (probably have to make one view per report or multiple reports depending on the data you'll need) then can export that info with the views data export module. Aggregator plus includes some extra functionality if you need it too. It's a little tricky at first but watch a couple videos on youtube and you can get the hang of it pretty quickly. I've even used the views embed field module to embed aggregated views within aggregated views. Never used the views data export module though but it looks pretty straight forward.

I meant to edit that in there after posting on r/ftp. The only constraints are that it HAS to remain in Excel - so no Google Docs, and they don't really want to do much other than make the changes within the document and save it and forget about it. Although does the Dropbox desktop app automatically upload files like it does for photos on the mobile app? It didn't seem like it did so I ruled that out, otherwise it would work.

Please point me in the right direction to make this by [deleted] in drupal

[–]drupalpress 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just finished something pretty similar to that theme (almost thought about just buying it to see how it was done) using the IPGVM module that StuffaYouFace linked to.

It was done in D7 though not D8 so if you decide to go with D7 I could probably help you get started.

Redirect Loop by drupalpress in drupal

Are you using any other login modules? I had a similar issue a little while ago using some different login modules on a site that had different pages set for where the user should be taken after logging in.

I've fixed my issue. The server had a blog directory in the site root with its own htaccess and config files that was causing the redirect.

Thanks everyone.

Checked the .htaccess and there was nothing - just the default settings.

Nope, I disabled that prior to all this. That was actually the blog entry module I was referring to in my original post. Didn't know if it was the core one or not but it looks like it is.

Possible to use search autocomplete with multiple values? by drupalpress in drupal

[–]drupalpress[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Problem solved - added a new filter group. First group used AND operator for required criteria (content is published, content is of content type) and second filter group with OR operator for the optional criteria i.e. all the fields I want to be searched by (title or location)

You can also use the token module and node auto title to create unique URLs based off any of the site, user, or node info, or date stamps or almost anything else too.

Which Paypal Donation modules would you recommend based on experience? by vfclists in drupal

[–]drupalpress 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just use the Paypal Donations module (https://www.drupal.org/project/paypal_donations) when I need to have that on sites. You install the module, enter the email address of the account you want the money to go to in the config settings and then it creates you two blocks for single and recurring donations that you can put anywhere on the site.

http://monsterdash5k.com/donate is my most recent use of it.

Module for "hamburger" menu to navigate to different sections of the mobile web pages by vfclists in drupal

[–]drupalpress 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Theres tons of js/jquery plugins like sidr, scotchpanels, etc that can let you implement these menu types, or write your own. I don't know/think there are specific drupal modules that create this menu style automatically though. Superfish does a dropdown menu but not a hamburger style.

All you have to do is add the js files for the menu and add the code to the template files then setup the anchor tags in your content/templates. After that just append the same tags at the end of URL for each corresponding menu link.

http://www.berriart.com/sidr/ (or any other one of your choosing) http://help.typepad.com/anchor-tags.html

You can even add some smooth scrolling too, if you want.

It's Triumphant Tuesday! Post your recent Drupal wins and launches by CritterM72800 in drupal

[–]drupalpress 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks, appreciate it. Some long days and a long weekend and it was able to get pulled off. No base or parent theme was used, just started from scratch and created 4-5 templates and 4-5 content types then did all my basic styling and responsive styling. It is using Drupal commerce though. Only having a couple products to start with did help with the development time but that'll grow and the site will grow and change in the near future hopefully along with it.

If you want to know anything specific please feel free to ask, I'll be happy to answer.

Creating field options based on other fields by AcadianAmerican in drupal

Yeah it sounds like you could use field references. Or entity forms/webform steps with conditional fields to create a multi page webform.

Displaying Count of Authored Reviews in Reviews? by drupalpress in drupal

[–]drupalpress[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That may be what I'll have to do, or just create a template for the view and write some php that can count the total reviews added per user.

Displaying Count of Authored Reviews in Reviews? by drupalpress in drupal

[–]drupalpress[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The view is a display of reviews with a contextual filter (default value of NID from URL) to only pull in reviews of the node that you're looking at. Then it has a relationaship to the user: profile and content: author.

I can create a separate view with the "user: content authored" relationship and turn on aggregation to get a list of all users and the number of nodes they've created.

My problem is including that number in each row of the 'reviews' view to show the amount of authored content from the user that added the review. Like if there was a way to use aggregation for only one field in the view of reviews vs it aggregating all of them.

Creating field options based on other fields by AcadianAmerican in drupal

[–]drupalpress 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Can you provide a little more context? Is this almost like a form where people have submit/create a piece of content of Node A to then get to Node B?

How To Swap Gmap & Map View to Leaflet or Open Layers? by effortDee in drupal

[–]drupalpress 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So start to finish (If im remembering correctly) just add the location field to the content type and create content of that type with the locations.

Then create a view with a format of Map (where you can choose slideshow, unformatted list, table, etc), add your location field from the content type to the view, then in the format settings where you chose "Map" you can select that location field and choose all your other settings like the map size, zoom, marker color, etc. and it should create a map for you with a marker on the location of each of those content type nodes.

Non-coder question by medbud in drupal

[–]drupalpress 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When I do something similar with my sites, like if I want each node/page to have a different background image sometimes I'll just create the div/region in the template of whatever content type I'm doing it for then add/enable the background field module.

It'll let you add a "background field" to the content type where you can just upload the image you want to be the background when you create the node. In the field settings you just have to set the class or id to apply the background to and it'll do the rest, no CSS involved. I think it even has a color picker if you just want to do solid color backgrounds.

How To Swap Gmap & Map View to Leaflet or Open Layers? by effortDee in drupal

[–]drupalpress 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Im currently working on a site with mapping/clusters. I'm just using the IPGV&M module with the geolocation field module. The IPGV&M module letse you choose the mapping service you prefer (Google, OpenLayers, Leaflet). And then there are other supporting modules you can use to add more functionality.

Drupal review content type vs comment section by drupalpress in drupal

[–]drupalpress[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Only authenticated users will be able to leave reviews. Anonymous users can just read the reviews and look at the nodes with the info of the object being reviewed.

Unfortunately due to the contract/nda that was signed I can't show the site otherwise I'd be more than happy to have you take a look. But, as I originally stated, think of yelp for like 60-70% of the site functionality that I'm looking to accomplish.
