I’m a Drupal newbie. So new I have yet to even install it.
I’m working on an existing site that’s PHP and a MySQL data base that’s going to be migrated to Drupal.
I’ve read a lot about Drupal’s Migrate and Table Wizard modules but am still left with a couple questions.
First, the desire is to keep the data, as is, in the current MySQL database. Migrate doesn’t move data into its own Drupal database correct? Does it alter the tables? I’m thinking the best way to do this is migrate and setup views.
I am running a Drupal site with comments allowed for anonyms and registered users.
Nowadays most of people have more or less public accounts at least somewhere and I'd like to give them a way for identification without the hassle of the registration.
What is the best way for allowing people to comment using the site account, facebook account, twitter account, openID account (anything else would be a nice bonus)?
I have a site where I don't want the first item on the menu to be a link. I tried #, and leaving it blank, but it won't allow any of them. Basically, it's the submenus that are important in this case. I really don't want to have some empty page there just to show links to the other 20 pages that ARE important.
I made a D7 version of an existing module and fixed many of the pending issues. I posted in the D7 upgrade issue for the project about my work and sent an email to the maintainer of the project. In both cases I asked for help to know what to do next and have not gotten any replies. The maintainer does not seem to be very active. Can some one here give me some guidance.
Can anyone recommend any other (more active) Drupal support forums?
I've got so many issues outstanding and no one seems to be able to help here, and my questions get left unaddressed. I don't know if it's because all my problems are rare, or most people don't know how to help, or levels of activity are low. (When I used SMF forum software and posted on their support forums, you could bet your bottom dollar an expert would sort you out with hours, if not minutes!)
