I want to output "Site information" form in another place. I tried to use drupal_get_form and it does not work as expected
the code in menu callback
drupal_get_form('system_site_information_settings');
Error message
Notice: Undefined index: system_site_information_settings in
drupal_retrieve_form()
My guess the form ID is wrong?
The form ID you're using is definitely the right one...system_site_information_settings() lives in the system.admin.inc file in the core system module. By default it's not included in the page process, you need to include it manually:
module_load_include('inc', 'system', 'system.admin');
$form = drupal_get_form('system_site_information_settings');

I have a custom template file I'm using for a page.
Say the page is www.mydomain.com/hello-world
The content of this page is taken from a template file called hello-world.tpl.php
Now I need to have a variable prepared in advance for that page, so I took a look at how core modules achieve this and tried to implement in the same way, only the variables are always null..
for hello-world.tpl.php I created in my module file a function called:
function template_preprocess_hello_world(&$variables) {
$variables['test'] = "test";
}
As I said $test doesn't get any value on www.mydomain.com/hello-world (I receive NULL when var dumping it)
I spent an hour or so double checking that I don't have any typos or anything like that.
Is what I'm doing worng??
Try renaming the function to mymodulename_preprocess_hello_world(&$variables). Don't forget to clear the cache as well.
I have this in my routes.conf file:
# SecureSocial routes
# Login page
GET /login securesocial.controllers.LoginPage.login
And then I have this in a Scala Controller file
val index = SecuredAction { implicit request =>
Redirect(routes.UserOps.watchlist)
// how do I go straight to /login? >|
}
Doing this takes me to a login page that has a red error bar saying "you must be signed in to view this page". If I access `localhost:9000/login' I get the login page without the error bar.
Normally I do a Redirect(routes.SomeControllerObject.ActionMethodName) but in this case the controller I need to access is in a plugin...
I feel like I'm missing something rather large here...
Update:
To reverse-route to an action in a plugin controller you need to provide the correct, full path to the plugin's routes class.
Redirect(securesocial.controllers.routes.LoginPage.login)
Original Answer
For reverse-routing I don't think it matters where the Controller is since Play is building that when the project compiles. From the documentation:
For each controller used in the routes file, the router will generate a ‘reverse controller’ in the routes package, having the same action methods, with the same signature, but returning a play.api.mvc.Call instead of a play.api.mvc.Action.
So this should work just as if LoginPage was a controller directly in your app.
Redirect(routes.LoginPage.login);
In order to show the message, you must have an item in the Flash. When you hit /login directly, there is no flash, so you won't see that message.
If you want to see that message:
Redirect(securesocial.controllers.LoginPage.login).flashing( ... )
I am getting strange problem.
When I am listing some content type, intead of data I am getting 'n/a' string.
I listed views, and on one view I have 'Warning - Broken view!' message.
I can't edit / delete this view because it always redirect to front page.
I checked my logs and all I see is repeating:
# warning: Invalid argument supplied for foreach() in /home/www/testetelgsm/www/includes/common.inc on line 3364.
# warning: Invalid argument supplied for foreach() in /home/www/testetelgsm/www/modules/cck/content.module on line 1284.
# warning: array_keys() [function.array-keys]: The first argument should be an array in /home/www/testetelgsm/www/includes/common.inc on line 3361.
How can I delete / edit this view?
Could somebody help?

You need to go to the views admin page at: admin/build/views. Here you can find a list of all your views and edit/delete them.
It sounds like you are trying to pull something that doesn't exist anymore like a deleted cck field. Anyways, if it doesn't work to edit it, try to recreate it.
You can make views into features with the features module. That will define the views in a custom module that is generated for you, and make the view defined in code. That will make it possible to restore it, if it gets edited.
I'm currently wrestling with a views relationship-argument puzzle.
I have a Flag setup called Favorites, so that users can favorite site content. I also am using Content Profiles and Pathauto. Now I'm adding a views content attachment to the user content profile to display the user's chosen favorites.
Pathauto's default content profile path is: member/[title-raw] - so that a typical alias for a user's profile page is: member/john-smith (please bear in mind that the profile node id isn't the same as the user id)
And here's my views setup:
Relationship: flags:favorites - BY: Any user
Argument: This is where my understanding breaks down. I need to somehow get the username or uid out of the URL of the current profile.
Any ideas of the correct argument to get this thing to work? I've been trying out all the possibilities that occur to me, and so far no luck.
Thanks
In your View setup, click on + in Arguments to add an argument.
In your argument setup, select "User" from the "Groups" drop down.
Check "User: Name"
Click "Add" button
Save your view
As long as this is your only argument, you just have to pass in user name in the URL. In your example, so see the view for john-smith, you would navigate to http://example.com/viewname/john-smith.
That would be for page type view.
If you are creating a block view type, you cannot pass arguments in the URL. For a block type view, follow these steps:
In your View setup, click on + in Arguments to add an argument.
Select "PHP Code" for "Default argument type"
Enter the following for the PHP code,
if (arg(0) == 'viewname' && arg(1) != '') {
return arg(1);
}
Now that block will get arguments from the URL, similar to what occurs for a page view.
if you're willing to use custom php code in order to fetch the argument, http://api.drupal.org/api/function/drupal_get_normal_path/6 is your friend. you can pass it the alias you're visitting with arg(0).'/'.arg(1)
When a user login , the user will be redirect to a user profile page, which has a My account field set.
the field set has 2 fields, "Username: ", "Email address:". those 2 fields are generated by drupal.
those 2 field contained in a form which has a id ("user_profile_form") . I want to change the order of those 2 fields.
I have tried to intercept 'user_profile_form' , inside hook_form_alter.
code as follow:
$form['account']['name']['#weight'] = 1;
but that did not success, drupal did not even rendering the 'name' field, so no username: showed on browser.
What you did is absolutely correct, and probably did work. You can change the weight of the fields with the method described above.
The username field is not always rendered. The reason is that a persmission is required: change own username. If that perm is not set, you wont be allowed to alter you username and the field wont be shown.
Info on debugging.
Your info alone is not quite enough to debug. From what you describe, you are doing the right thing, but other modules could be making things a bit tricky for you. The devel module is quite good when it comes to debugging, ti defines two functions I use a lot when debugging:
dpm() pretty prints the variable to the message area using krumo.
dd() Prints / saves a variable to a log file. Useful when you can't view messages on the screen.
I would suggest that you look at the $form variable before and after you alter it.
Things that could make it go wrong:
Did you remember to pass the $form variable by reference using the & notation?
Is another module altering your form after you?
Are you checking for the correct form id, so you alter the correct form?
These are some pointers, before you bring more info, all I can do is guess to what your problem exactly can be. I did something like this a few days ago so I know what you describe shouldn't be a problem.
