Make a Subtheme of Bartik with the Color Appearance module wheel

Sun, 10/28/2012 - 11:06 -- rprice

By default making a sub-theme of Bartik in Drupal does not bring across the color wheel module, but with a slightly modified sub-theme set up, this can be enabled. The trick is to make a css directory and put your custom css in there and also copy across the existing bartik color css files.

BOTCHA Spam Prevention | drupal.org

Tue, 10/16/2012 - 06:16 -- rprice

BOTCHA lets spambots to prove they are bots, and let real users zip by.

BOTCHA is useful for any form that has to be protected from spambots.
How it works

The approach of BOTCHA is to add various elements to forms that need protection from bots. These elements do not present new fields to users, so BOTCHA is completely transparent to humans. Both humans and bots submit those forms and BOTCHA performs heuristic analysis on each submitted form. Bots are usually programs/scripts that are relatively dumb, and most of the time they fail BOTCHA tests and human users don't.

Taxonomy Formatter | drupal.org

Mon, 10/15/2012 - 20:58 -- rprice

This is a small module written to provide a custom formatter for taxonomy items. The default formatters both output the terms wrapped in divs. This module adds a new formatter that allows you to specify the element type, the wrapper type, classes for both, the separator used, and if they link to the term pages or not. This gives much more customizable layout options.

Local image input filter | drupal.org

Mon, 10/15/2012 - 08:06 -- rprice

Locks down image references to the host/domain of your site only, to prevent CSRF attacks, and avoid HTTPS mixed content errors.

In short: This input filter restricts image tags in HTML content submitted by users to your site.

* This input filter finds all IMGs in a text, checks whether their src attribute is relative and points to an image under the Drupal root.
* Images satisfying that requirement are retained and left alone.
* All other images are removed.
