I'm trying to create a rule/ruleset that:
Is triggered when a user registered with the site
Then (depending on a CCK field value included in the registration) add that user to a role
Then redirect the user to a profile page.
I've tried no end of times and simply can't get it to work.
I can create a triggered rule which fires upon registration (but doesn't allow me to perform all actions needed), nor does it allow me to select the ruleset with all the actions needed using rules schedular.
One of the reasons I'm not allowed to select the ruleset under a triggered rule is the "arguments are not passed".
Any help is really appreciated or perhaps another way of achieving what I'm trying to do.
I am gonna guess that you are probably using content the module content profile to use CCK content types for user profiles, and that you have the content profile fields visible in the registration form. your problem is that you need to load the profile to be able to access values in the fields there.
Your best bet is to use http://drupal.org/project/autoassignrole to handle the role assignment and then, use a rule to set the content profile field (if you really need to set that) once the user logs in.

I want to add moderation logic for a form which has name, mail and comment. Now when anyone fills the form and clicks "submit" it should directly be posted to the page. I want to send the content to "admin" and to be published after the content is reviewed. How can I achieve this in Drupal? I'm using Drupal 7.2.
There are many ways to achieve what you want. I guess you are looking for a site-builder approach.
Then you may have a look at the Webform module. Webform lets you build forms and define e-mail addresses to where the submitted data should be send to.
Then there is the Rules module with which you can define a rule that on every form submission automatically a (initially unpublished) node is being created populated with the form values.
And finally you may provide a list of all unpublished nodes built with Views. Maybe you already provide a button "publish" next to each node in the list that triggers the node publication.
Alternatively you may also have a look at moderation modules like Workbench Moderation.
Or have a look at the Flag module which is pretty useful for flagging content according some logic and/or button clicks. For example you can add a flag: approved.
On my company's Drupal 7 site, I created a field for one of our content types through the admin UI. We decided to hide it from the user until some styling changes make it through to production. Is there a was to programmatically unhide the field via an update hook? I know get at least some of the field information through the field_info_field function, but I'm not sure how if it contains the setting needed to make the field visible to the user. Any help on this would be appreciated.
I know I can unhide it through the UI once the changes hit production, but it would be nice to have an automated way of doing this.
You can hide it programmatically from it's node template with hide() function:
https://api.drupal.org/api/drupal/includes%21common.inc/function/hide/7.x
You can do that conditionally, i.e. by checking user role first.
Now, I'm not sure will this work from update hook, and I'm not even sure why you want to use that hook?!? If users are allowed to edit that content type and you actually want to hide it from edit form then check out my answer here:
Drupal 7 - Hide certain form fields of a content edit form depending on the content data
You can use https://www.drupal.org/project/field_permissions drupal module to hide and unhide fields to users of specific role.Initially during development the field can be made visible to admin role and then later on the permission can be granted to users of other roles
Simple question for all of you here dealing with Drupal 6.x...
With Drupal's Add More module, is there a way to configure my webform so that there is no limit on how many of a specific fields I can add more of?
Please see my image for example:
For example, I'd like to enable the user to add as many titles as they would like. Is that doable?
Unfortunately, it's not currently possible to add unlimited "add another" functionality with webforms. And if this functionality does become a reality someday, I doubt it will be backported to the Drupal 6 version of the module. From the webform modules author (quicksketch):
there is no progress on this subject. The ability to support multiple
values requires a tremendous amount of re-architecting, including
changes to the way CSVs are generated, analysis, the database
structure, and the UI (both for administrators and users). I wouldn't
expect this feature to be added any time soon.
See this thread for more information:
http://drupal.org/node/354381
I would suggest using a node and the CCK module plus rules and views to collect this information.
Assumptions:
Anonymous users can fill out the current form
You need some way of retrieving the data that is submitted
Regular users of the site should not be able to view submissions
Very loose directions:
Create a content type and add all of the fields that your current webform contains to it. CCK has the ability to store unlimited values out of the box. On the field settings page, inside the Global Settings fieldset, select "Unlimited" for the "Number of Values" field.
Give anonymous users permission to Create [your-new-content-type] Content on the Role Permissions page.
Using the Rules module, create a new triggered rule that fires on "Content is about to be viewed" with an condition "Content has type [your-new-content-type]" and an action of redirect to homepage (or a custom error page that you created). (Note: this is a bit of a performance hit. There are better ways to restrict access to this content type, but for the sake of this tutorial, this was the easiest to explain)
Using the Views module, create a new view with Style set to Table. Add each of the fields in [your-new-content-type] in the fields section. Under "Access" choose "role" and select the role that is assigned to your user. Add a "page" display, give it a Path and save. This is the page you will use to view submissions.
Optional:
Use the Rules module to send yourself (or the submitter) an email when a node of [your-new-content-type] is created.
What I need to accomplish is this:
If an anonymous user visits the site, show regular site content.
If a user logs in to the site, then user-related content appears in place of the regular content.
I would like to accomplish this using the Views module.
I have looked at the Premium module, but it seems to be abandoned. I would like to avoid using the content-access module if at all possible, since I already have other access controls in place.
If you are creating a page display for the views, you can accomplish this with view's access controls. Views will show the first available display that the user has permissions to.
Create a display for the authenticated user view
Set the page path
Set the Access restrictions (eg., by Authenticated role)
Create a display for the anonymous user view
Set the page path to the same value
Optionally restrict access to the Anonymous role (not necessary, since if views can load the authenticated display for the user it will not bother with this one, but may keep it's use clear)
Since you cannot re-order the displays in a view (yet), you must define the views in the order of most restrictive to least restrictive.
For more complex displays, you can use the Panels Pages module to render the page differently based on a user's role.
If you only want to differentiate between anonymous and authenticated users, you can specify that different content blocks are visible to each role.
On my own site, I needed to differentiate between Administrators and everyone else, so I could not use the authenticated user role to define access for individual items. Similar to Views, with Panels Pages you can define multiple variants of pages that use the same path. Administrators have access to the first variant, and all other users fall through to using the second.
You could try using the CCK content permissions and set permissions on a per field basis. Then have different fields for different content that you want to publish. I believe this is included with the CCK module.
I am using the Drupal 6 module Content Profile to allow using a CCK defined type as a user profile which is working well. The issue I have is that I want the first completion of the profile to trigger an action however the user may save the profile without completing it. My thoughts on this is to have a checkbox by the save button which states 'My profile is complete' which the user will select once they are happy with it, and I have another module which creates a trigger by using the node_api hook and checking the type of the node, the action, and the value of this checkbox.
Once this trigger has been raised I don't want that checkbox to appear again however. If I could set the visibility of the checkbox using PHP code that would work as I could write a short script to determine if the completed action has already happenede and if so hide the checkbox. Is there a module that allows this? I haven't been able to find one.
I have also looked at using the same node_api hook to manipulate the profile as it is being displayed however the node just seems to have the values for the fields and not a form object that can be manipulated as I would have expected. IS there a way to programatically manipulate a CCK form?
Thanks
I think hook form alter is what you are after. This can perform alterations to a form before it is rendered.
I would suggest another approach using the Save & Edit module. Set your CCK profile type as "unpublished" by default. Allow users to save it and/or save AND publish it with this module. On publish, use triggers and actions.
This approach is arguably more in keeping with the Drupal way - configuration over customization.
