Is there a standard way to get views as data? (to count the rows and such) or is it expected that this will be done in the preprocess functions, and views methods always return themed output?

Kathleen worked around this by making changes directly in the theme's views-view.tpl.php.

Alternatively,
<?php

<?php
// $Id$

/**
* @file
* The Author field module.
*/

/**
* Implementation of hook_help().
*/
function author_field_help($path) {
switch ($path) {
case 'admin/help#author_field':

The usual PHP functions include, require, include_once, and require_once should not be used in Drupal to load files from modules that aren't your own. Instead, use module_load_include():

http://api.drupal.org/api/function/module_load_include/6

See also http://api.drupal.org/api/function/drupal_load/6

This is how one would embed it in a node.tpl.php, but this should all be done in a pre-process function instead.

<?php
// here it is all together, expect normal typos:
$normal_terms = '';
$special_terms = '';
foreach ($taxonomy as $tid => $term_object) {
 $term_name = $term_object->name;
if ($term_object->vid == 3) {

The entire theme disappearing issue has an identified culprit.

(It was sort of cute– devel still printed the query log, but that's all we got for each page.)

First I commented out scf.module's implementation of hook_theme(), but visiting the admin/build/modules and admin/build/themes pages didn't bring it back.

Agaric has added the following modules to our development git repository. Alphabetical order:

http://drupal.org/project/coder
http://drupal.org/project/coder_tough_love
http://drupal.org/project/deadwood
http://drupal.org/project/devel
http://drupal.org/project/enabled_modules
http://drupal.org/project/export_node
http://drupal.org/project/node_export

If you want to use Drupal sessions and the logged in user object from a straight PHP script not at Drupal root but somewhere in subdirectories in a site, you will probably need to do something like I endend up doing in profiles/scf/switch.php to impersonate the Drupal site root directory.

In fact, I think the partial installation profile idea might need something like this.

There's a hook for that! The logically named hook_requirements lets you set requirements for each module.

To make these requirements apply to an installation profile, simply put your implementation of hook_requirements in the .install file of a module that is required by that installation profile.

Hi Brian,

benjamin-agaric: a Views 2 question-- we have two content types (one for images, one for posts) connected to the same vocabulary, we would like a view of the images (actually a CCK field on a node type) where the link from the image goes to the single post tagged with that term. Now I'm thinking this is such an edge case I should just do it in the theme like always. But--
