Add this to your template.php file.

  1. function YOUR_THEME_NAME_preprocess_views_exposed_form(&$vars, $hook) { //this is important
  2.  
  3.   // only alter the required form based on id
  4.   if ($vars['form']['#id'] == 'views-exposed-form-where-to-buy-page-1') {
  5.  
  6.     // Change the text on the submit button
  7.     $vars['form']['submit']['#value'] = t('Search');
  8.  
  9.     // Rebuild the rendered version (submit button, rest remains unchanged)
  10.     unset($vars['form']['submit']['#printed']);
  11.     $vars['button'] = drupal_render($vars['form']['submit']);
  12.   }
  13. }

Drupal 6 Custom content type page theme

If you ever wondered how to change the page.tpl.php for a custom content type you've found out that by default Drupal 6 doesn't know how to do it.

It's "fixed" easily by adding the following code:

  1. /**
  2.  * Override or insert PHPTemplate variables into the templates.
  3.  */
  4. function phptemplate_preprocess_page(&$vars) {
  5.   // Add per content type pages
  6.   if (isset($vars['node'])) {
  7.     // Add template naming suggestion. It should alway use hyphens.
  8.     // If node type is "custom_news", it will pickup "page-custom-news.tpl.php".

If you want to customise your frontend page in Drupal 6 copy your existing page.tpl.php into page-front.tpl.php and do the customisations there.

Drupal body value in views template

If you're creating a view and using a custom node type for that view and don't understand why your $body variable doesn't work to display the content of the node it's because the shortcodes aren't loaded in a view template so you must use $node->content['body']['#value']

Drupal block cloning

I'm working on a website built with drupal and I ran into pretty nasty drupal 6 limitation.
You can't clone a module / have multiple instances in a default install, so after some searching I've found this nifty drupal module called MultiBlock that allows you to do exactly that.
