Drupal

When a drupal site has different domains for its language, difficulties can arise when developing locally. With this snippet, you override your language settings, so prefixes are used instead of domains.

Always try to use the core functions for linking inside custom formatters or modules. The following snippet allows html inside the link text.

I personally like using the drupal menu block module. It allows for quick creation of submenu's. The following patch fixes a bug that keeps showing regions, even when there are no subitems in the menu block.

<pre>
<code>$date = strtotime($importObject-&gt;created_at); // which is a date format
$node-&gt;set('created', $date);
// $node-&gt;save(); etc</code></pre>

<p> </p>

When saving nodes programmatically, you probably want to set the body to accept html. it is important to set the input format, so html is accepted.

<p>From time to time it comes in quite handy to import configuration from other websites into yours. You site uuid is unique though, with the following snippet you get yours.</p>

<pre>
<code>drush config-get "system.site" uuid</code></pre>

<p>To set the uuid in drush:</p>

<pre>
<code class="language-bash">drush cset system.site uuid 9b13adbf-0da5-4937-a731-xxxxxxxxxxx -y</code></pre>

<p>The following snippet will return your langcode f.e. 'en', 'nl', etc. Use the following code:</p>

<pre>
<code>// Get current language code
$language = \Drupal::languageManager()-&gt;getCurrentLanguage()-&gt;getId();</code></pre>

<p> </p>

I started using an automated script for my drupal installation, which will generate an admin user. But, after installation I have to edit the password.

I like a good user interface for webmasters, so a clear menu path is necessary. For the admin toolbar dropdowns, I usually create subitems programmatically. 

While there are many ways to debug your errors, sometimes just seeing the full errors in your screen works best.
