Put users on probation period based on roles using Drupal rules (trial period)

The below instructions will show you how to put all newly created user accounts in a probationary period for 30 days using Drupal 7 Rules and Rule Scheduler Modules. During this 30 days when a new user creates any content, it will be unpublished until a admin publishes it.  Administrators will receive an email letting them know that a probationary user has created content and it needs attention.  This email will provide the administrators with a link to the newly created content so they can publish it.

Modify (add or remove user roles) the user roles of lots of users using Bulk Operations and Views. In Drupal 7

Scenario- A request came in that I develop a newsletter for users that choose a certain profession in their user account profile. IE: All Physicians would be added to a role created named "Physicians" and only users with the permission role "Physicians" would be allow to view certain content on the site and receive the "Physicians Only" newsletter.

Drupal 7 Views images paths broken after migration to new server

First check your file system paths in the configuration page.

Then make sure you have the .htaccess from old site migrated to new sevrer as well.

The broken images happened to me when I decided to install a new instance of Drupal core on the server before migrating existing site from another server.
The .htaccess file was not migrated over and that caused the image paths to breaks.

Adding placeholders / text for the inside input elements of Drupal 7 View Exposed Filters / exposed forms blocks
