PayPal Website Payments Standard

I use osCommerce e-commerce shopping cart and once upon a time, I also had PayPal IPN (contribution) installed to process PayPal payments. However something went wrong (I don't remember what anymore) and I had to uninstall it and ask my customers to log into their PayPal account and make payment after they had completed their orders. In other words, they could not automatically and conveniently pay via PayPal directly from a link on my site.

Drupal Teasers - How to Style

'Teasers' are (I think) the short summaries that can appear on your Drupal front page. The default look of these Drupal home-page summaries or teasers is not always the most attractive look you might want to have. So how do you style it and make it look the way you want?

Drupal Links - How to Change Style and Colour

This is another quickie Drupal tutorial. Again, more of a pointer than a full blown step-by-step guide.

So this quick Drupal pointer is as much for me as you.

AdSense for Search and Drupal sites

Google's AdSense programe includes "AdSense for Search" which allows you to create a search feature you can put on your own site. With this, you can also specify that the search results are only from specific sites (e.g. only from your own site(s) as well as from the entire web. This is a doubly useful package as it provides the ability for your visitors to be able to do a search directly from you site(s).

How to Delete a Custom Menu in Drupal

If you have created a custom menu in Drupal, how do you delete it? Once you know this, it is very easy but if you don't, you might wander around, clicking and wondering where to go because it is not as immediately obvious as you would expect.

Create Footer Navigation Menu for Drupal

The aim here is to make a footer navigation in Drupal so that I can move some important but infrequently used links to the bottom of the page.

I want the result to be something like this:

appearing at the bottom of my pages.

Twitter on Drupal

Let's see how we can put your Twitter updates onto your Drupal site. We already discussed how to get a Twitter badge, i.e. the code to be able to include your Twitter updates on your website.

I am going to presume that you have gotten your required code and that you have chosen the HTML widget (and not the Flash widget).

Twitter on your Website

It is not immediately obvious how you would get your Twitter updates (which Twitter calls " Twitter badges") to automatically show up on your site or blog pages. But the information is there.
