Admin actions (views, blocks config, etc.) locking up on Drupal 6
Tuesday May. 15, 2012 - 4:04 pm
Most of my development is now on Drupal 7, but I still maintain a few Drupal 6 sites for clients who can't subsidize an upgrade or (in the case of this blog) just don't need it yet.
At "some point" in the last year I came to find certain actions like editing/saving views, adjusting blocks or adding menu items hanging the entire site - not just my session. The culprit, after a few frustrating hours diving through logs, appears to be a hyperactive menu rebuild.

Drupal cheat sheet: Load up .info files for modified features
Wednesday Jan. 11, 2012 - 5:05 pm
I often use drush fua to update existing site features on my development server. While it's a great shortcut to update the features' content, version numbers aren't automatically incremented. There's a ticket on Drupal.org proposing this feature, but as usual things got complicated.
For my benefit (and perhaps yours) here's my quick-and-dirty way of loading up the changed .info files into my favorite X editor, Komodo.

Hancock was right on 300, but still doesn't get it
Wednesday Nov. 2, 2011 - 9:09 am
Denver Mayor Michael Hancock was right to campaign against Initiative 300, the "sick time" mandate on private employers that was walloped last night by voters. But despite being right in his opposition, he's playing the go-along-get-along card with the initiative's kooky backers.
Case in point, from today's Denver Post:
Denver Mayor Michael Hancock said: "I hope they give consideration to looking at this on a statewide basis. That's really where it belongs."
