How did our site upgrade cause errors in your G2? (please post your question in the appropriate forum, thanks)

When using the search function. The results page has the advanced serch box before the results. This results in the users having to scroll down to see the results. Don't know if this intended behavior or not. If it is my vote is to change it back to the way it was.

This is an entirely different search module, and the old one is not available for 4.7 so we can't change anything back. The advanced search box comes up collapsed, so not too much space is taken up. It's probably possible to move both the search box and advanced search section below the search results if that is deemed better. You're welcome to use the GMC task tracker on sf.net for requests like this one.

I don't know why but it _was_ open. I see that it is now collapsed. Wierd.

in the forums the font size used for the code bbcode makes the code a lot bigger then it used to. See this thread http://gallery.menalto.com/node/50331

Considering the sheer amount of change from this upgrade, I'm amazed that there have been so few issues. Great work, mindless!

It looks like you have the same issue I have with a site that I am currently developing. Drupal 4.7 and Gallery 2.1 seem to have an issue with the embedded environment (using the Drupal Gallery Module from here if you browse to a page URI that does not exist you get the follwing error:

"Unable to initialize embedded Gallery. You need to configure your embedded Gallery."

You can see what I mean if you go to [url=/gallery/abc]http://gallery.menalto.com/gallery/abc[/url] - which is not a valid URI.

I suspect you will also see errors in the Drupal application:
Unable to initialize embedded Gallery
Error (ERROR_STORAGE_FAILURE)

that's an odd sequence of events.. the invalid path somehow makes the init try to recreate your user acct in the G2 db even though it already exists. no idea how the path is related to user init, but i'll take a look.

nzwhost, I'm not sure what it should do for an invalid path.. I submitted this patch that at least gets the right error in drupal watchdog.

When a URL is posted that has a & in the link portion of the url gets trunkated.

Example:
http://discussion.dreamhost.com/showflat.pl?Cat=&Board=3rdparty&Number=28516&page=0&view=collapsed&sb=5&o=all&part=

that means someone else deleted that item already.
(fyi, this is a custom G2 module and not related to drupal 4.7)

Why do you use Drupal 4.7.2? Drupal 5.1 works very fine and have some nice new features!

This thread is over a year old. We moved to Drupal 5 this spring, as far as I remember.
