I have a website with a 40MB database that gets a lot of traffic. It has its own dedicated server with a very good configuration.

I'm looking in converting it into Drupal but I'd like to know whether the E-Publish plugin can be customized in the front page. The website publishes daily news and wants its frontpage to contain news that belong to the same day (issue, I guess).

Any other mods you think might achieve this (except for E-Journal and/or E-Publish)?

Thanks a lot,

PD.

I haven't used it, but the scheduler module sounds like it might be able to do this.

I have an Issur module that might be of interest. It is currently "unpublished" and I have not updated for 4.7.
It allows organizing content around the concept of an issue and includes the ability to autopublish using cron.

You can see it use at http://leovia.com/ which is a weekly paper.

Thanks for the responses.

I looked into the Scheduler module but I can't tell whether it can do what I want without using it first.

Nevets, your module looks closer to what I'm looking for except that I would have to go in and cannibalize the code to make it fit to the daily nature of my news website. I noticed the "Past Issues" part, which would be inefficient in displaying the archive. Instead, I would have to turn it into a calendar form or something to that effect. Are you charging for your module?

Please, anyone else, if you have a module that really fits in with my requirements, I'm willing to pay.

Thanks a lot.

PD.
