Drupal 7- My WYSIWYG text Editor disappeared! When I go back to edit content in body field!

This drove me crazy.  Check the text in your body field, or whatever text field and see if you have the word "select" in your content text.  Sometimes it identifies it as a SQL injection.  Use a different word than "select" in your text.  
Not sure if there's a work around but I use a synonym for it in my content.

$conf['user_failed_login_user_limit'] = PHP_INT_MAX;
$conf['user_failed_login_user_window'] = 5;

Anchor links do not scroll in chrome- Drupal 7 and Chrome

Anchor tags must look like the below for Chrome to reconginize them and scroll.  (Need to have the <p> or <div> tag, the title should go between the <a> tags.)

Disable a field in the User "Edit" page. Drupal 7 Hook alter and custom user registration fields.

I need to allow users to add information during registration but not allow them to access those fields to edit after the new user account was saved. (Data collection project, if they went into their profiles and changed that data it would mess up our numbers.)

Here's the Hook alter code. :)

Add Drupal 7 user role to a user when they complete a quiz using Quiz and Rules Modules

What I needed:

I needed a rule that assigned a user role to a user after they completed a certain quiz developed in the quiz module.  The reasoning behind adding this new role was we wanted users to complete one quiz before having access to the rest of the quizes on the site.

After researching like crazy here's what I came up with:
