Site (Quillem) related topics, usually to do with maintenance and updates
I've started overhauling the broadband section of this site. Thus far four ISPs have been updated, and I intend to update the rest slowly but surely.
Once this is done, I intend to write a review module that integrates with the existing modules, and a few other odds and ends.

Title says it all.

I don't know why, but the click through rate on this site has gone up by about 4-5% off late. Rather odd considering that the site has been in something of a lull..

Why the dearth of new stories in the last couple of weeks? Too much work and too little time. I have however, spent some time in the last week developing some new stuff for when Drupal 4.7 comes out. I will very likely upgrade quillem.com as soon as it hits RC status :)

Added an ISP List parsed from Part 2 of the performance indicator report [PDF] for July-September 2005, released by the TRAI..
Comments welcome.

Added in a few updates to the site a couple of days ago:
Site Update: Added the google sitemap module yesterday - looks pretty nifty, except I'm not too sure that it's handling node type priorities very well - not sure yet.
I'm also working on my first Drupal module, and intend to perhaps write a walk-through-or-two that outlines the basics of module writing. The online docs are (as is the norm with Drupal) just plain shoddy.

If (like I was today) you're stuck with a Drupal site with Clean URLs enabled but mod_rewrite disabled, here's how you disable it via the database [Afaik there's no way to do this from Drupal itself, as you just can't login and navigate the site as all the URLs are clean URLs.. quite the catch-22 :P]:
Navigate to the variables table your DB, and view its contents sorted by the name field. The three rows that concern us are:cache s:1:"1";
clean_url s:1:"1";
clean_url_ok i:1;
All three are stored in serialised form [as strings]. Cache will be set to 1 only if you have caching on, the same for clean_url. Edit each row so that the end result is as follows:
Just added the plan information for MTNL; Updated the links page with speed test links and links to the few looking glass mirrors around the country.
I've also just been told that the Hathway plans listed might be Chennai ONLY :S So will probably need to update the page with all the liteway, paceway bs.
