Drupal Panels add edit links to node - drupal

I have change the default display of a node type to use panels but I don't seem to have the view, edit, version etc tabs. How do I add them to my panel?

Tabs are a part of the page elements group when inserting content into your panels. You can see the tabs in the right column at the bottom. If you add that to your panel then you will get the tabs on your node pages.

One workaround is to make a view to output the node fields you need. And add 'edit link'
there. Then use this view in the panel instead of the node.

Have you given the proper path to your views?
No need to add to panel.
Just give the path to your views and add filters/rows to display.

Displaying a menu/block in a page/node

I'm new to Drupal and making some changes to an exisiting site.
I have a page with a menu in the left side bar, which shows on all the pages in that menu apart from the one i've added. I've done it before where you have to add the URL of the page you want the menu to show somewhere in the admin panel for the menu to show.
If i go to: site building > blocks > block_name and then tick 'Users cannot control whether or not they see this block.' The menu wil show. But it will also show on pages I don't want it to.
Do you know where in the Admin I need to go to allow the menu to show on this new page.
Thanks in advance.
After hours of hunting around I've found the answer, the block has text box at the bottom of the page 'page specific settings' where you add the URL of the page you wish the block to show on.
You can use menu_block module.
It creates the menu inside a block and treats it EXACTLY like a block.
Hope this helps... Muhammad.

Drupal contextual block above view?

I'm using Drupal 7 along with the Views and Context modules. I have a particular view with a page display, and I want to put a particular block in the content region. When I do that, the block appears below the view.
I want the block to appear above the view, instead. Is this possible, or do I have to create another region to go above the content region?
Like you mention in your question, you'll need a region above the content region for this. The default theme for Drupal 7, Bartik, has several such regions (the 'Featured' region is probably the closest to what you're after), so if you're making a custom theme, you can refer to that theme for an example.
Go to edit your page view and click add on the header region. Navigate to your block view and insert it .
This may be the quick solution as it will display the block directly above the page content. It also allows the option of inherit contextual filters so the header display can receive the same contextual filters as its parent.
This can be also done in the footer region and works on all themes.

Custom Order Menus in WordPress

I'm using WordPress Menus for my main navigation, at the moment it's displaying the navigation alphabetically. How can I get it to display my menus in the order I have them arranged in WordPress?
Thanks in advance!
Appearance > Menus
Select the menu you want to edit (this view is editing Main Nav)
Select that pages you want to include in your menu from PAGES on the left
Add To Menu
NOTE: You can also add post categories and nest pages within each other like shown in the image below. Make sure that your template is set up for menu nesting if you do this.
If you are talking about pages in your menu, go to the editing screen and look for Page Attributes (typically on the lower right). You will see PARENT, TEMPLATE and ORDER. In the order section, you can assign a number to the post, and they will appear in the order you define.
Hope this helps
In the menu page, you should just be able to drag the items into the order you want.

drupal views more link

i'm new to drupal views. More link not displayed with my view block. i set more link both Create more link and Always display more link option too. Find picture below for view settings.
Note: i'm sure there is around 10+ nodes available to display.
You have only block display, so where should go "More"? :) Create also "Page" display.
If you have specific page to link on more then you can use header or footer also
1. Add Global Custom Text in Header or Footer
2. Put Your Link There.
That is alternate way for more link

Drupal: displaying menus with Views?

I need to develop a kinda Sitemap on the bottom of my website, with all menu items and I was wondering if I can do it with Views.
I actually need to display each main menu item on a different column and add the submenu items to each column.
I realized anyway that Views has not access to Menu items, but only to nodes, or am I wrong ?
thanks
I don't believe you can do this with views. It sounds like you just need to have the top level menu "expanded" in menu configuration and style accordingly. For creating something trickier, that involves multiple levels, check out the menu block module (http://drupal.org/project/menu_block).
