Can anyone recommend me a good, easy to use, booking system that could be used for a small B&B / Hotel?

I've seen Drupal Rooms and Ubercarts Hotel Booking, but they seems to be only in alpha or beta stages and (frankly) I'm not skilled enough to work out the little bugs I come across AND the site I am building is not going to generate enough business to make it worth my while (only 4 rooms to book out)

Any suggestions would be great and anyone who can show me site with the module being used would be even better

Thanks!

We are in the analysis and design stage of building a quite hefty system for private contractors. It's coming to the end of the the first iteration of the database model and we are looking now at the languages to build it in. Our intention is that we are to build in partnership with a client to use it, then moving forward we want to sell it.

I really want to work in Drupal, I very much like it and I know I can get a lot of work done in a modular fashion and the existing database won't stand too much in the way of our logical model.

I have upgraded from drupal 6 to drupal 7 and for me, everythiing is better in drupal 7 until I hit this problem.

I have to create and show graphs to users depending on whatever the data they have stored on the site, I mean I have collected the data and stored on a Mysql database. now, I have to fetch these data from Mysql database and display it as a neat graph.

In drupal 6, making such dynamic graph is a cake walk..! I used Charts and graphs module with "open flash chart" to create some very interactive and pretty graphs. But it does not has a drupal 7 version..!

Hello everyone,

I am a typical web developer who can whip out almost any page I like to make with Notepad hand coding PHP, Javascript, and setup my own database on MySQL, and add some graphics created on my own with Photoshop and process them into web friendly images. But this kind of web building is very old school and extremely inefficient.

I realize Drupal (or Pressflow) may be a solution for me not to hand code every little thing by myself. I am wondering if there is an easy way to have Drupal use external database for user authentication as well as content? I want to create several web projects without having to force my users create an account on each and every website I have. Register once, and you can access all my sites.

Second question is: how easy is Drupal to integrate outside codes for unsupported features? Like I want to add my own server-side codes to do things I want as if I build my page from scratch, but I do not want to modify core code (which is troublesome each and everytime there is an update). One example is blog engine like Wordpress which is pretty much limited to blogging (OK I know Wordpress can do more, but just take this as example).

Hi Guys,

I'm starting a personal site that doesn't really need to be entirely stable. I thought I might take this opportunity to try out Drupal 8. I'm not that great of a programmer so I don't know how much help I can be in contributing to the development. Any thoughts?
