Drupal 6.x

what would be the right way/modul to start?

Phpgedview, looks like people have stoped there
TNG?
Others?

what are your experiences

I haven't upgraded to 6 yet, but i just came across a Drupal 6 site and noticed they had the drupal forum as homepage, on the first level. For example, www.site.com was the forum index, it wasn't diverting to www.site.org/forum, but www.site.com was the actual forum index.

is it possible to have the forum as your primary root page?

I am new to Drupal and just installed Drupal 5 via CVS on my PC (Ubuntu) a couple of days ago. Now since version 6 stable is out. I want to know the following:

1. Since Drupal 6 displays in admin section any module needs that needs upgradation, is it better to install multi-site via cvs or is individual installation better?? Which method would you recommend for multi-site installation?

I'm sure this has been asked before, but a search didn't turn up anything relevant, so my apologies in advance if this is a tired subject.

I'm about to start a website project that will require clients to have a private user area (1 area per client that is only accessible to that client via a username/password), but all these areas should be accessible to the admin users of the site. Is this possible with Drupal? What I see is the ability to lock an area by usergroup or level, but not by specific user.

Any info would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks.

Hello all, I am doing some fiddling around and I have come across a question that I am sure is very easy for anyone who has used collapsible menu items on their Drupal site.

To be honest, I have never used them on various Drupal sites I have constructed, and have run into a snag.

On my D6 install, I have created a menu item, let's call it menu. I have of course created a block on the left sidebar called left menu.

Now, I want this menu to have a link that, when clicked, will expand 3 child objects. How do I set this up?

How do I run a .tar file? Drupal does not save as a zip file. I have XP, but it doesn't recognize the file.
