Installing Drupal

I’m relatively new to Drupal and have just completed the installation of the CMS. I have an existing website built using another platform (non-Drupal), and I’d like to know if it’s possible to import or migrate the entire site into Drupal without having to rebuild it from scratch.

Specifically, I’m wondering about:

1. Content migration: How can I import existing content like pages, posts, media files, etc., into Drupal? Are there any modules or tools that can help with this?

I've just finished installing the latest stable release of Drupal by following the steps at https://www.drupal.org/docs/user_guide/en/install-run.html.  After the last step, when I tried to access my Drupal site, it looks crappy. Firefox debugger shows that it is not able to find the directories sites/default/files/js and sites/default/files/css. I looked at my directory C:\drupal\web\sites\default\files and sure enough, there are no "css" nor "js" folders under there.

Hi everyone,

I'm experiencing a persistent problem with my Drupal setup running in a Docker container using a PostgreSQL database. When I try to add content, like an article, I receive the following error:

Fatal error: Allowed memory size of 134217728 bytes exhausted (tried to allocate 262144 bytes) in /opt/drupal/vendor/twig/twig/src/Extension/SandboxExtension.php on line 130

Here are some details about my setup:

Hello everyone,

I'm recently started learning Drupal, which I have started on version 10, and when installing it, I didn't have much problem except for settings.php in which I was able to manage to fix the error. FYI, I'm using macOS Sonoma 14.6.1.

Hi,

I am new to using Drupal but have had to jump in and get to know how to install and use it due to a client having Drupal installed on his site.

The client had the site, which ran Drupal 6.31, installed on a server in his office and had an issue with a former web developer who prevented the client from using the site from July 2024 onwards having hijacked the domain into his own name and locking the client out from accessing the site via both the browser and server.
