Here is a nice little PHP snippet that will remove non-ASCII characters from a String. Code was taken from here.

Here's a snippet that will rename the edit tab to a custom string, on node edit, depending on the content type. It is easy to add different or additional validation criteria, depending on when you would like the Edit tab to show up with its brand new name. This code should be placed in a custom module.

Quick notes on Drush, while on a Drupal installation folder: To create an archive of the current Drupal site: drush archive-dump --destination=/backups/mysite.tar To restore the files and databases for all sites in the archive. drush archive-restore /backups/mysite.tar To create a mysql dump of the current Drupal database: drush sql-dump --result-file= /mydb.sql To drop all tables of the current Drupal database: drush sql-drop To import a new db file in the current Drupal database:

There are many solutions out there to reset User 1's password in a Drupal 7 website. A really convenient way is to use Drush, to generate a one time login URL - no mails involved. The output would be directly on the console, and it is simple to just copy and paste it in a browser. 

The drush command is the following:

 

drush php-eval 'echo user_pass_reset_url(user_load(1));

 

and once logged in, the password can be easily changed in the user edit screen. 

The code below goes in your template.php and removes the "More information about formatting options" link.

Please remember to clear the cache in order for the changes to trigger.
