Adding (verifying) your Drupal site to Google's Webmaster Tools

I don't see an API for your entire Google account coming soon, or Google should already be able to skip the verification step for sites using Google analytics.

Example of hook_block in Drupal 6

<?php
/**
* Implementation of hook_block().
*/
function fightfi_block($op = 'list', $delta = 0) {
$block = array();
switch ($op) {
case 'list':
$block[0]['info'] = t('Sidebar Links');
$block[1]['info'] = t('Footer Links');
return $block;
case 'view':
switch ($delta) {
case 0:
$block['subject'] = t('Sidebar Links');

 

Drupal 7 module development gotchas

First we discovered that you need a .module file for your module to be recognized. A .info file is not enough. (In this case, we only wanted the .install file, we made an empty .module file, and all was well. But then we wanted to add some functions to that empty .module file...)

Now we have found that you need to declare

files[] = agaric_example.module
