Serious management problem at Drupal

I have had so many problems with Drupal 7, I cannot count them all.
I have installed my own website 5 times. I have a test server that is now in spasm. It has less than 6 pages on it but is in constant refresh mode.

IMHO Releasing a product in 2011 that does not have basic SEO or send email is irresponsible. Clearly there is a management problem.

I am not stupid. I have 20 years experience as a programmer, some as a PHP programmer. Yet I cannot install this product so it will provide basic functions. Something is wrong.

Hide Comments for Certain Content Types

I have tried a couple of approaches to doing this through the interface, so now I assume I must create a conditional in the comments.tpl or comments_wrapper.tpl to achieve my goal, but I am not very familiar with the various variables, etc. that must be referenced. I am hoping someone can help. I am using the latest version of Busy as my theme.

What I am trying to achieve is to have the comments block show on certain content types and not others. I have tried not displaying comments on certain content types using display control in each content type, but I still get pesky '0 comments', which is not going to work. Yet I must have comments on other content types.

Currently I have solved my issue with a hammer by turning off the comments module entirely, but I really do need them for certain content types. My goal, then, is to have on content type Article, lets say, to allow comments as it comes default with Drupal 7. On my custom Content Item content type, I want no reference to comments at all. Does that make sense?

I've taken a look at the comments.tpl and comments_wrapper.tpl in the Busy theme, but I am not sure which part to wrap in a conditional, and what terms to use in the conditional to refer to my different content types.

Cannot email from Drupal 7

I have Drupal 7.7 on a local webserver and a Internet host. The local is Xammp lite. I have several Drupal installs including 6. Six sends emails, Seven does not.

On the local and the Hosted, I have the site config set. When I go to admin, people and contact, I get an error: Unable to send e-mail. Contact the site administrator if the problem persists.

I contacted the hosting company and they say the set my default in the mail server to match Drupal. Still no mail.

Gallery with ftp & exif

Hi,

how can I create a Foto webalbum / gallery that autogenerates albums from ftp mass-uploads with exif description field?

Thank you!

Couple of important issues before I migrate into Drupal

Hello to All -
Currently my website is in .NET and I would like to migrate to Drupal in order to manage the content better.
My site currently supports 22 languages having different domain names for each language. The site has the same theme for all of the domains.
Generally, the site (including all of its domains/languages) is divided into 3 subfolders/sections which are responsible for different content and slight changes in the theme. for example:
The URL http://www.example.fr (which is responsible for the French language) is divided into 3 content sections:

and so is the other domains/languages. As a matter of fact, each section contains a slightly different version of the whole site.
I have installed fresh D7 and also I have installed i18n (and its dependencies),pathauto, panels and context modules but I have yet succeeded to answer the following questions:

  1. How can I create a node and assign it to one of the above sections ?
  2. Once I have managed to assign a node to a section, how can I make it have a URL prefixed by the appropriate section prefix like sec1,sec2 etc. ?
  3. How can I have my theme changed according to the section the user is in?

Web Development Help, Important

I am a web developer in desperate need of a theme that matches a current web site. I've been developing Drupal web pages since the days of Drupal 4.x and my client says they want the theme to match their current web site. I already have the content, menus, modules, and blocks configured per their specifications.
