As discussed in previous blog post, drush cron can be run from crontab too. While seeming pretty straightforward, trying it out caused some troubles.

The thing you would do to make drush run from crontab is:

$ crontab -e
* * * * * drush -r /path/to/drupal

Also tried to give full path to drush install

$ crontab -e

Sometimes there is a need to make drupal redirect using drupal_goto. We had to do it in an SSO scenario. We had to make drupal goto a configurable admin page (node page) when no roles where assigned to you by the external authentication (shibboleth). So we would put a check in hook_init() to redirect drupal when our criteria where met.

Since I m currently based in France Bordeaux for a six month mission and the entreprise I m working for (MBS Orange/France Télécom) is a french speaking one it was time to learn some french vocabulary. The french in particular have their own word for practicaly each word in the computer/drupa/web/... vocab.

Our example: we try to set the default value for a filter on a certain week.

I tried to set the default value of your exposed filter in:

Didnt work.
In get forms you need to set the $form_state['input']['week']. Also you need to make sure the value isnt submitted yet so check on $_GET['week'] to get the actual value.
