Drupal 7

Here's an example that utilizes the Batch API for Drupal 7:

After 24 hours of fudging around, I finally figured out what causes this problem. To make a long story short, I needed to make sure the node_type property was set on my comment entity. For example, a comment for an article node needs this property set:

$entity->node_type = 'comment_node_article';

The error message itself is a little misleading, since it says the bundle property is missing. But in actuality, it was looking for the node_type property to be set also.

With the introduction of the CSRF Token a few months ago, service calls in Drupal need to pass along that token for certain resources. Using FireFox Poster, we can pass along this token to easily test and debug our services.

Here's an example to pass along the token for a simple article node creation.

With Drupal and Views, we are able to configure a View's settings and import/export them across Drupal sites. This allows us to create backup copies of our View's settings and/or move a View between Drupal sites with relative ease.

Typically this is a manual process by using the Views UI to copy the "export" code string from one site:

http://dev.example.com/admin/structure/views/view/frontpage/export

..and then paste the string into the "import" form on another site:

Today I stumbled upon the need to do something I've never done before in Drupal. I needed a hook to run some custom code when a View was deleted. First, I checked out the list of Views Hooks and didn't find any hooks that appeared to be able to get the job done.

After a bit of Googling and chatting in #drupal-support on IRC, I was directed to this old closed issue. From my understanding, the delete hook doesn't exist and it  sounds like it won't be existing anytime soon. What can we do? Well never fear, Drupal is here.

I've been using the Address Field Phone module with the Commerce and Address Field modules to collect a phone number from users during the checkout process.
