Cheers for the help but reading the wiki page on healthcare it seems that sometimes injuries caused by cave in get bugged and do not get diagnosed.

So now we wait and see if he ever recovers by himself.

Edit: After removing the bed he has just been left where he was, but now has no job and is not being moved at all.

How do you give dwarves with XxclothesxX new clothes?

If they are military dwarves, you can include the clothing with their uniform, assuming you don't overdo the layering on any particular body part.

If they are civilians who are not wood cutters, miners, or hunters, put them in a squad and assign a uniform consisting of clothing to that squad.  Leave them off duty forever.

If they are civilians who are wood cutters, miners, or hunters, then I don't know what you can do.

Cheers for this but my doctor doesn't seem to want to diagnose. If I disable everything but diagnose he just stands there and does nothing,

Would it matter if my injured dwarf was in a bed that wasn't in the hospital? I didn't have a hospital when it happened.

A dwarf has to be Resting (performing the "Rest" labor), and he must have the "Diagnosis requested" flag in the (v) (z) (h) (Treatment) screen, in order to be diagnosed.  If you don't have any hospital beds, the dwarf will probably be Resting in his personal bedroom, and I've seen diagnoses performed there.

What I do is switch those labours off and then re-enable them when I want the tasks done. Maybe there's a way around it, maybe not, but this is a no-fuss solution if you're using DT.

Well I think my miner is screwed, he seems to have frozen where the bed used to be, noone is dragging him to the hosital or diagnosing him.

Which is a shame as he was my legendary miner, ah well.

Edit: He has now been dragged too the hospital, nearly 4 months after the event occured, oh well. Now I just have to hope he gets better.

Edit edit: he didn't, he died from an infection Oh well, thanks for the help.

"Some migrants have arrived despite the danger" why does it say this why not just "some migrants have arrived"
Does this have a meaning

It means that they've heard about all your dwarfs dying, but they came anyway.  Sometimes you'll get no migrants because they consider your place a deathtrap, and it'll give you a message saying so.

How do you view the stone layers on an embark site?
I really feel like I should know this...

You play one of the older versions where it's possible to see what the stone layers are.  The current version doesn't let you see exactly what stone layers exist in an embark site without first embarking.

someone should fix the wiki article on embarking.  it tells you to check the stone layers.  i'm no wiki editor, or i'd fix it myself.  http://df.magmawiki.com/index.php/Embark#Layers

How do you get out of fullscreen mode?

i play on linux, and have the usual "minimise" and "restore" buttons on the window.  you may need to save, exit, and change your .ini file fso that fullscreen is off.

I keep getting messages saying that my smelters are canceling jobs at the magma forges due to lack of the material to smelt. I checked and I do have those metals. Why are they canceling it then?

EDIT: Nevermind I accidentally removed a ramp that wouldn't let them get into the main fort.

Question: Is it possible to allocate what barrels are to be used for? For instance, only allowing barrels to be used to store alcohol.

Question: Is it possible to allocate what barrels are to be used for? For instance, only allowing barrels to be used to store alcohol.

Create a separate food stockpile for mead and plant drinks. Set barrel limit to zero in every remaining food stockpile.
