Whilst developing this, and other Drupal websites for clients, I decided that I wanted to categorise content using the taxonomy system. However, I wasn't happy with the way that Drupal displayed the terms lists by default, and I started comparing this to other websites that I look at.

Whilst updating my About page, I thought about creating a slideshow of several images instead of just the one static image. When I looking on Drupal.org, the only slideshow modules were to create slideshows of images that were attached to different nodes - not multiple images attached to one node. Then, I found the [Fancy Slide](http://drupal.org/project/fancy_slide) module. It's a jQuery Slideshow module with features that include integration with the [CCK](http://drupal.org/project/cck), [ImageCache](http://drupal.org/project/imagecache) and [Nodequeue](http://drupal.org/project/nodequeue) modules.

Whilst uploading images for my Projects and Testimonials sections, I noticed that the Imagecache-scaled images weren't as high a quality the originals on my Mac. I did some searching online and found out that, by default, Drupal resamples uploaded jpgs to 75% of their original quality.

I recently decided that I wanted to have a block displayed in a sidebar on my site containing icons and links to my social media profiles - [Twitter](http://twitter.com/opdavies), [Facebook](http://facebook.com/opdavies) etc. I tried the [Follow](http://drupal.org/project/follow) module, but it lacked the option to add extra networks such my [Drupal.org](http://drupal.org/user/381388) account, and my [RSS feed](http://oliverdavies.co.uk/rss.xml). I started to create my own version, and then found [this Blog post](http://www.hankpalan.com/blog/drupal-themes/add-your-social-connections-drupal-icons) by Hank Palan.

This isn't a Drupal related topic per se, but it is a walk-through of one of the applications that I use whilst doing Drupal development work. I assume, like most Mac OS X users, I use [MAMP](http://www.mamp.info/en/index.html) to run Apache, MySQL and PHP locally whilst developing. I also use virtual hosts in Apache to create local .dev domains which are as close as possible to the actual live domains. For example, if I was developing a site called mysite.com, my local development version would be mysite.dev.

I also use virtual hosts in Apache to create local .dev domains which are as close as possible to the actual live domains. For example, if I was developing a site called mysite.com, my local development version would be mysite.dev.

As a heavily-reliant [Quicksilver](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quicksilver_%28software%29) user on my MacBook Pro, I was glad when I found the [Teleport](http://drupal.org/project/teleport) module for [Drupal](http://drupal.org) *(due to Elliott Rothman's [tweet](http://twitter.com/elliotttt/status/18044234238))*.

Sorry for the lack of Blog posts lately, but [my new job](http://horseandcountry.tv) that I started a few weeks ago has certainly been keeping me busy! I've got a few more posts that I'm preparing content for, and I'll hopefully be back into my weekly-post routine before too long!

Earlier this year, I posted a solution to [an issue](http://drupal.org/node/753898) on the Drupal.org issue queue. Originally, I just posted the code back onto the issue, but have now created a patch that can easily be applied to any Drupal 6 installation. Here is a run-through of the process of creating and applying a patch. In this case, I made changes to the `user_pass_validate()` function that's found within `modules/user/user.pages.inc`.

As in [the original post](/blog/add-taxonomy-term-multiple-nodes-using-sql "Quickly adding a taxonomy term to multiple nodes using SQL"), I'd generated a list of node ID values, and needed to add structure the SQL update statment formatted in a certain way. However, I changed my inital query slightly to out put the same nid value twice.

One of my favourite things lately in Drupal 6 has been CCK 3, and more specifically, the Content Multigroups sub-module. Basically this allows you to create a fieldset of various CCK fields, and then repeat that multiple times. For example, I use it on this site whist creating invoices for clients. I have a fieldset called 'Line Item', containing 'Description', 'Quantity' and 'Price' fields. With a standard fieldset, I could only have one instance of each field - however, using a multigroup, I can create multiple groups of line items which I then use within the invoice.

As the vast majority of the Drupal websites that I currently work on are built on Drupal 7, I thought that it was time that I upgraded this site. Following the [core upgrade process](http://drupal.org/node/570162) and the [CCK migration process](http://drupal.org/node/1144136), everything was upgraded smoothly without any issues.

If you're accessing Linux servers or automating tasks between servers, rather than having to enter your user password every time, you can also use SSH public key authentication. This is a simple process that involves creating a local key and storing it within the *authorized_keys* file on the remote server.

In this case, I wanted to have different output and fields displayed when a teaser was displayed compared to when a complete node was displayed.

When you download [Drupal](http://drupal.org), there are several text files that are placed in the root of your installation. You don't want or need these to be visible to anyone attempting to view them in a browser - especially CHANGELOG.txt as that includes the exact version of Drupal you are running and could therefore have security implications. Rather than delete these files or change the file permissions manually for each file, I can add the following lines into my VirtualHost configuration:

I'm happy to report that the [Accessible Bristol](http://www.accessiblebristol.org.uk) website was launched this week, on Drupal 7. The site's been developed over the past few months, and uses the [User Relationships](http://drupal.org/project/user_relationships) and [Privatemsg](http://drupal.org/project/privatemsg) modules to provide a community-based platform where people with an interest in accessibility can register and network with each other.

The [Domain Access project](https://drupal.org/project/domain "The Domain Access project on Drupal.org") is a suite of modules that provide tools for running a group of affiliated sites from one Drupal installation and a single shared database. The issue is that the domains are stored within the database so these are copied across when the data is migrated between environments, whereas the domains are obviously going to change.

There are times when doing Drupal development when you need to run a custom PHP script, maybe moving data from one field to another, that doesn't warrant the time and effort to create a custom module. In this scenario, it would be quicker to write a .php script and bootstrap Drupal to gain access to functions like `node_load()` and `db_query()`.

If you use [Drush](https://raw.github.com/drush-ops/drush/master/README.md "About Drush"), it's likely that you've used the `drush pm-download` (or `drush dl` for short) command to start a new project. This command downloads projects from Drupal.org, but if you don't specify a project or type "drush dl drupal", the command will download the current stable version of Drupal core. Currently, this will be Drupal 7 with that being the current stable version of core at the time of writing this post.

A few times recently, I've had instances where Vagrant seems to have forgotten which virtual machine it's supposed to load, probably due to renaming a project directory or the .vagrant directory being moved accidentally. Here are the steps that I took to fix this and point Vagrant back at the correct VM.

|

|
|
||||||
* Stop the machine from running using the `$ vagrant halt` command.
|
Here are the steps that I took to fix this and point Vagrant back at the correct VM.
|
||||||
* Use the `$ VBoxManage list vms` command to view a list of the virtual machines on your system. Note the ID of the correct VM that should be loading. For example, `"foo_default_1405481857614_74478" {e492bfc3-cac2-4cde-a396-e81e37e421e2}`. The number within the curly brackets is the ID of the virtual machine.
|
|
||||||
* Within the .vagrant directory in your project (it is hidden by default), update the ID within the machines/default/virtualbox/id file.
|
1. Stop the machine from running using the `$ vagrant halt` command.
|
||||||
* Start the new VM with `$ vagrant up`.
|
2. Use the `$ VBoxManage list vms` command to view a list of the virtual machines on your system. Note the ID of the correct VM that should be loading.

This week, my first code patch was [committed to Drupal core](https://www.drupal.org/node/2394517#comment-9773143). The patch adds the `user_has_role()` function to theu user module, to simplify the way to check whether a user in Drupal has been assigned a specific role. This is something that I normally write a custom function for each project, but it's now available in Drupal core as of [7.36](https://www.drupal.org/drupal-7.36-release-notes).

But what if someone is using a core version less than 7.36 and tries using the function? The site would return an error because that function wouldn't exist.
