My background is with Dreamweaver creating html pages. I have just literally installed Drupal yesterday, so I am really, really new to this.

I have a client who needs a site which includes a public directory of around 150 people (offering a particular service) including name, location and phone number. Rather than showing a list of everyone, I need to make a searchable database so users can search by location etc.

So, can this be done relatively easily in Drupal?

How can I create sub-websites for members who they want?

How do I create a the Home Page Template for drupal 7.x.

Even I added the page under "themefolder/template" still I am not able to see any changes at front page.

Where do I find the page to edit the front page only.

I need to present a entirely different theme for front page only.

Thanks

Hi,

I am a fresher in Drupal.

I wonder why Drupal (declare as user friendly CMS) dont have a proper documentation?

I am trying to create a theme for Drupal 7.x. And somehow I managed to create a theme for drupal 7.x also but not able to create a specific theme for front page.

I goggled everywhere but no luck with any kind documentation on Drupal 7.x theme integration. Wherever I go I am ending with Drupal 6.x documentation. I hope Drupal 7.0 should not release at this time coz lack of proper documentation.

I have a block with an exposed title filter from views that allows someone to search by name. I only want this block to show up on the front page and on the results page. For the sake of argument here is a simple example of what I want to do.

www.mysite.com has the search, then you type in "John" and hit submit. This would take you to the following url...
