On my "main" website, I added some blocks containing RSS feeds from other sites to my right-hand sidebar, and was frustrated by the fact that the links opens in the same window, requiring me to go Back to get to the site on my page I clicked away from. I wanted each of these links to open a page in a new window, but with the Drupal system you can't very well just go in there and slap a target="_blank" attribute into the link.

While doing a Drupal-related task at work, I encountered an odd problem. In the course of creating a rather lengthy and complicated content type, I discovered that, out of the box, the Title and Body fields are included by default and cannot be removed or omitted from the form used to create the content. Even worse, the TItle field is mandatory.

I did a little research and one recommended solution was to install the auto_nodetitle module, but this just flat out does not work. Or if it does, it requires PHP coding expertise that I will never possess.

Updated to Drupal V. 6.14 and updated several modules... Date, CCK, Views, to name a few. Planning to dig into some serious theming work this holiday weekend.

Also, I tried enabling the Filefield and Imagefield modules, and received an error saying that they wouldn't run under PHP 4. I thought I'd tackled this problem before by editing something in .htaccess, but apparently that wasn't the case. The solution, however, was quite simple, and is documented right here at Sonic.net's site under the FAQ section:

There, I said it. I'm in the process of wiping out all of the yellow on this site, and replacing it with red (not my favorite color either, but it's better than yellow). I'm very happy that there's a version of the GiMP that has been ported to Mac.
