So I was using the User Relationships module for a while on a project. It worked OK, but I got very tired of not having the flexibility of a user reference field. Since I was already using the Content Profile module for users, I just added a new user reference field to the Profile content type. The user reference field was configured for multiple values.

I then wrote a simple hook_menu item and a call back function that would actually handle the conversion from the User Relationships module to a User Reference field on my Content Profile setup.

Once upon a time, on a dark day, December 21st, 2011 to be exact. There was a desire to modify a Drupal webform. Normally, one could use replacement pattern tokens available in the Webform UI to set default values on a component field. But this was a special day, a day where a Webform field had to be prepopulated with a value that was not available via replacement pattern tokens. So if you need to modify a Webform via hook_form_alter, try something like this:

If you need to modify the Location module's form on a node, try something like this:

Aside from the handy dandy Custom Breadcrumbs module and/or using Views arguments to set your breadcrumb, sometimes you just want to set a breadcrumb programmatically on a certain url menu path with phptemplate_breadcrumb, here's how, right now:

So I had a content type with an optional, unlimited value Imagefield attached to it. The content type's user permissions where set to allow all authenticated users to edit any node of that type. Which is all fine and dandy like sour candy. However, by default users are able to edit and/or remove other user's images in that field. Out-of-the-box that is the intended functionality, but I wanted user's images to be protected from other users. Here is how it can be done with a module:

Sometimes a prerequisite to getting a burrito for lunch involves using Drupal URL arguments in Javascript. So for example, say you had a URL like this:

http://www.tylerfrankenstein.com/chicken/burrito/combo

You can add code like this to your module:

function my_module_init () {
  drupal_add_js(array('arg' => arg()),'setting');
}

And finally you can use code like this in Javascript to use the Drupal URL arguments:
