It's true, I hate the browser, the versions and the name. On almost every project of mine I use x amount of hours just so the IE users can have the look and feel. Today I found a great tool which lets you use some css 3 effects for IE 6-8. css3pie. The tool is very well documented and a tutorial shouldn't be needed.

This feature is really amazing and I thing it will be used a lot, especially as custom front pages. With this feature enabled you can add rows from a view and place it in different panel panes. Usually you could place a view to one pane, but with View Context you can pull out rows, view header or view footer, you can even select fields from the view and place them wherever you want.
I created a pdf for this tutorial. Hope you enjoy it.

When anonymous users submits a webform that contains a hidden field with the value % server REQUEST_URI the field will show up empty in the results. Instead you can use the %get[q] and the results page will contain a nodeurl like node/152. This works with panels to. Which means that you can insert a webform in any panel, and the nodeurl will be the panel page and not the webform url.

Uploading multiple images in Drupal has never been easier. Select all files from within a folder, hit save and it's done. Double click to give them a new name or description, drag and drop to sort, and built in icons for file types. It even works with vertical tabs. The best thing, it's using filefield. This tutorial is about how you install the module and how to create a cck SWFimage field.

Finally finished my latest project Qrant.no. and Apache Solr Search from Acquia is one of it`s services. The module is really great, it gives you outstanding search features like faceted search, related items block and sort options.
This tutorial is about how I created pages that lists taxonomy terms which links to solrsearch and shows search results. This was not easy, at first I thought the faceted blocks could be used anywhere, maybe it`s possible but I didn`t figured it out. Custom pages with views is more fun anyways, great theming options. Ok, this is heavy stuff...

I had to hide a panel pane for certain users on my latest project. Babybrukt is a site where people can create their own ads. Buy, sell or give away used baby "stuff". The advertiser needs to know how many times his or her ad has been viewed. I created a view that gives me the data and went to the panels dashboard.
Panels visibility rules is the place you want to go. Create a new rule and give it these settings.
Visibility rule: user:Compare - First user = node author - second user = Logged in user
Grant access if user context are: Equal.

Last night I updated the Vertical Tabs Module to version 6.x-1.0-beta7. Somehow custom CCK fieldgroups disappeared from the vertical menus after the upgrade. I went to Content management settings to see if I had done something wrong. Adding or telling which fieldgroups that shall be displayed within a vertical tab is no longer an option. Grr #$"!$!!.

Hey, almost a month since last post :-/ This feature is really great if you want to create different blocks from one view. I had to create a view that contained recent posts, popular posts and popular posts today. To manage this you have to create 3 different page displays and the displays need different sort criteria and filters. At first I thought this was easy, but when I started to modify page display #2 page display #1 got modified, jeezez. Then, after 48 minutes of drupalfrustration I hit the help menu. The solution; A button called override.

The jquery Rounded Corners module is a nice tool if you need rounded corners for divs, classes, blocks etc. I needed rounded corners for a container on my project, I'm using Blueprint 3 framework and this was really easy. The rounded corners module needs to be updated with the latest version, you can download it from here. Replace the version you have in you're Rounded corners module. First I had to create a class for my container:
background-color: #ffffff;
border: 1px solid #cccccc;
