Sidebar graphics with links ("promotional badges") the Agaric Drupal way
A note of warning about the length of notes to follow: This is site configuration at the point where it verges on developer documentation, such is the power of Drupal, and there's some outright theming in here too. This article is a reaction to doing sidebar graphics the painfully non-Drupal way.
Administration menu initial settings
For the necessary admin_menu module, I prefer the initial settings to not collapse fields on the modules page
With current initial settings this means unchecking "Apply margin-top to page body" and "Collapse fieldsets on modules page." Instead of going through this step every time this should be rolled into Agaric's basic/base installation profile.

Use "edit" in CiviCRM URL to edit a new contact
Here's a sample path to create a CiviCRM signup form in Drupal:
civicrm/profile/edit&reset=1&id=1&gid=1
The documentation has "create" instead of "edit". It's not clear whether the problem is that I'm already logged in to Drupal.
Why not WYSIWYG: Style and Markup for Content Management System web sites
The below is the why that goes with this how: Style content in Drupal using standard HTML tags (and have it match your custom site perfectly and meet your styling needs!)
Gus:
Reasons for using semantic tags, with style defined by Cascading Style Sheets, rather than inline as many web rich text editors tend to do their markup:
- Importance of consistency and not letting people randomly change font size and color.
Node relativity display: do not show children
can you help me make node relativity not show the children list below the node like that?
Go to administer settings or whatever Node Relativity and click on the Display Settings tab, and change the section from a number (weight) to zero - 0 - which means don't display.
Agaric asks itself: help. views arguments? Taxonomy, nodes, and context
The Question: How to use arguments to make a block view show content associated with pages
ok
The views argument is set to Taxonomy term ID.
This is pasted into the Argument Handling Code textbox (without the wrapping php tags)
<?php
if ((arg(0) == 'node') && (is_numeric(arg(1)))) {
$industry_node = node_load(arg(1));
$tids = array_keys($industry_node->taxonomy);
// this will only work correctly when the single term associated with an industry node is its industry term
$args[0] = $tids[0];
}
