I had suggested drupal for my client but he has been very much interested in CQ5. Can anyone help me with a comparison between Drupal and Cq5 using which i can win over him.
I'm new to drupal and I'm trying to build a social hub similar to that of www.whitehouse.gov.
Does anyone know which modules exactly they used to build this?
The OpenFolio Distro seems to have a lot of problems, beginning with the fact that it doesn't install properly with the default setups of either XAMPP or WAMP, so I can't see how it lives up to the claim to be "built to be understandable by beginning and intermediate Drupal site builders". The installer is supposed to enable an instance of the 'artist' user type to be created during installation but this does not seem to work (at least it didn't for me - not even with a clean install of the distro and a clean install of either XAMPP or WAMP). The distro eventually installed itself with clean url's turned off (because Apache has the mod_rewrite module disabled by default in httpd.conf and the .htaccess file had not covered for this eventuality). The result for many bewildered Drupal newbies is that when they try to log in for the first time, they will find that simply appending the usual "/user" to the site name will not bring up the login page; they have to use "/?q=user" and how long will it take them to work that one out?
I was thinking about web design yesterday and how to make websites quicker, cleaner, just better in general. Even though I guess other people had that idea, I'm wondering whether it'd be doable to create a drupal website driven by AJAX entirely. An example for how this could work would be http://ui.ajax.org/.
