Drupal 7.x

In my opinion, Drupal is not the easiest to use CMS for the average user. However, I love Drupal's structure and the ideals behind a modular based CMS. I was wondering if there will be any major overhauls to Drupal's admin interface in the next release.

Also, I was wondering if there is anything I can currently implement into my site to make Drupal function more like Wordpress. Are any admin themes sold? I'm looking for a way to turn Drupal's admin into a simple, Javascript driven admin interface ...

Dear support team !

Hello everyone,

I just had an idea and I am not sure how come this has not be implemented yet.

First lets give an example of what I'm thinking: On Windows based OS's if you want to install any new software you need to search the internet find a website, download (buy) the software then install. Then you have OS's like Ubuntu where you just open there built in tool type the application name you are looking for, click install. Ubuntu then finds, downloads the application, and installs it for you.

As I am sure you can guess Ubuntu makes your job a lot easier. Windows makes this more manual and error pron.

Now how this relates to Drupal: Currently Drupal acts like Windows, if you want to upgrade or add modules you must come to the Drupal website, download, extract, upload to your server. New versions of Drupal have helped with this process a bit. If you have a module installed and it needs to be upgraded you just click a link in admin and it downloads the module to your desktop. As you can see you still have to manually extract then upload to your server.

D7 question.

Simpletest allow me to create a fake module that will only be loaded by my tests.

Can I create a theme that my tests can enable but will not show up on the list of regular themes (like modules) ?

For example, my module would have a test/ folder with the mycustommodule.test file in it. In that folder, I could put another folder which would be a theme that my test can enable and perform tests on.

I know you can do that with modules.

Let me know.

Hi guys,
am sure you'll either say this is really to do or is so daft that it falls outside the realms of possibility.

I'm messing about with making a hotel site - each property has content, star rating, price point etc. Getting content in is simple, is there anyway I can set alter the 'add content' stage to have some sort of custom fields where I can assosciate the star rating and price point outside of the content to reference in other places in the site.
