So there we have another Browser “FLOCK” Its Still in beta version.

And this One seems Pretty darn interesting its been Termed as a “Social Browser”. Which means that you can use the browser directly to post on Flickr like Flickr, Technorati and del.icio.us . and any other application that supports a Web service other examples would include Blogging tools Like Wordpress, B2evolution, Blogger which all support XML-RPC or some kind of XML API.

Just checked out thier Website and forum they are using Drupal

Today marks my one year anniversary as a registered member on drupal.org. To mark such an august occasion :0) I’m here to debut my new blog, David (in words).

Now for some history. A couple of years ago after watching a movie, I surfed around the web to find out more about the movie and the actors. One of the sites I came to was powered by Postnuke. I liked what I saw and decided that I’d use Postnuke on my own site. As such, my first CMS powered website was up. Now, Postnuke worked for me… mostly. I had some struggles with things (like modules) but I really liked the design. At that time, I did look at other CMSs, including Drupal.

I need one extension that in the substance page, articles I can have the option to send for a friend (email to a friend) or version for impression. or theme.

Exists extension to recommend?

i downloaded and installed flexinode. i turned on the module i added flexinode under content > content type. i then see a bunch of other add text field, image and so on. i assume under create content > flexinode > the page will be displayed just like any other page.

what is the next step and how to create my own template? i search for flexinode and i am overwhelmed and kind of lost to what the next simple step that i can arrange my contents using flexinode.

Love drupal - but dang it's difficult to upgrade - what's up with that?

John.

Hi everyone,

My first post, great forum... ! :)

I am looking for a CMS solution for my web site and Drupal is currently near the top of my list. I have looked at the various sites and have played around with the Demo site. However, I wasn't able to find answers to some of my questions. Therefore, I decided to ask for your help.

The web site in question is a portal for architects who sell stock house plans. Currently, it's powered by another solution, but it I am planning on expanding it and the current technology doesn't give me everything I need.

Here's a partial list of features, I would like to implement on my site. Basically, my question is: Can Drupal do all these?

1. The site is split into three main sections:

A. House Plans - providing a listing of stock house plans; each listing is served in an identical, pre-defined format (image, title, floor area, width, depth, # of bedrooms, # of bathrooms, description, etc.)

B. Architects - providing a listing of professionals; each listing is served in an identical, pre-defined format (name, logo, address, phone, fax, email, website URL, description, etc.)

C. News - blog-like news items contributed by individual users.

2. Each house plan listing has its architect assigned to it. Clicking on the architect's name would bring her/his profile, which should be standardized but with custom fields.

3. House plans data should be directly importable into the MySQL database. I own a software (separate from Drupal) that can do this. The question is: does Drupal allow it? (I've got 1,000's of existing house plan listings with new ones submitted to me continuously by architects; entering them one-by-one into the system is out of question for me).
