Drupal 6.x

Hi folks,

drupal is hot, but after installation and basic settings set i got this powerfull applications... and unfortunately problems customizing it. Is there anybody here who like to help me at the first (and further^^) steps? Maybe we could do this live... would be great. If anyone is here who like to help me please contact me by mail: superhirn_riker@quantentunnel.de and then maybe you can help fix my problems using skype?

I am trying to install Drupal 6.1 on my webhost.

But first of all when i get to the database settings there is no option like
Database type: *
mysqli
pgsql

and second if i confirm my settings a white screen appears.

(I have 40M of PHP memory at my webhoster and I don't get any error messages)

Is this possible?

I would like to have a homepage with a link to a "whats new" page with the list of stories, pages, ect on it...

plus... I need it to be in 2 languages, so one page picks up english and the other picks up dutch... can it be done?

Trying to add a stock ticker which shows the 4 main stock segments (ie. Nasdaq, S&P500 etc.) into the header area of the affaires theme but seem unable to add anything to the header section. Any advice is much appreciated!

Thank you!

Hey everyone. I'm new to drupal and have a quick question about the forums. I have several forums listed, but I want to lock one forum so only admins can post to it. This will be used for posting site news. I have created an admin group, but I don't see a way to tell it to only allow admins to post. I want to leave all of the other forums open for registered users to post.

Any thoughts?

I got my multilingual menu working (cue applausse) and need more help, the "log out" and "administer" buttons appear wheather a user is an administrator or not, or even if someone is not logged on.
Now I know I could just remove them and make an array with user ids that are administrators, but that is difficult to maintain...

could someone please help me find (or make) some functions that would return true or false to role status and/or logged in status?
