Updated CrownedUp.com from Drupal 6 to Drupal 7

I upgraded CrownedUp.com from Drupal 6 to Drupal 7. Many of the modules we like to use have ripened in D7 so its time to start thinking about upgrading sites. This CrownedUp.com blog is ultra simple so I thought a good place to test pre client. I did realize that I actually had about a dozen extra modules enabled to start. It was a little bumpy on upgrade but worked fairly painlessly.

Format Drupal WYSIWYG editor to match theme CSS, including paragraph spacing.

I need the format of the WYSIWYG, w/ CKeditor pane, to match the display when viewing a node. Specifically I need this for clients so that they understand what they are actually formatting. You know What You See Is What You Get. Often you have a semi nice WYSIWYG editor but this does not perfectly match the display of the node.

First this means I want to hide all the extra formatting that can be added by Cut & Paste into the editor. A simple Cut & Paste will add all sorts of style elements. Second I need to remove the extra padding at the bottom of paragraphs, so that a single line break is a single line break.

following are my quick notes:

Modify Ubercart invoice template and sort by SKU

I needed to modify the Ubercart invoice template. This invoice template appears to the user online and in email and is also used by the store admin to review/print/email/etc. invoices.
I needed to do some light modifications like; modify "Products on order:" to list products one per line as well as sort products by model (a SKU in my case).

  1. Changing the general template is easy, info about the templates files can be found here:
