General discussion

Hello everyone!

I'm planning to start a musical portal. I was initially going to use PHP + mySQL but WordPress has been suggested to me instead. However, it turns out that WP has some issues that collide with my goals. Here's what I'm trying to achieve:
What is very important for me is that the name of the band/song/album etc is incorporated into the address. However what I don't want is something like that: http://www.website.com/123423141234/pagename.html what I do want is that: http://www.website.com/pagename.html
Secondly, once I create all my content I want to automatically create a list of keywords for all my content, something like cloud tag, if that makes any sense. Once I have it, I want all the words on all pages that match any of the keywords to be converted into hyperlinks. Those links should point to an index with all the pages that include given keyword. There should also be a search option available, but that probably comes in as standard.
Third of all, and that's the tricky part, I want to include a widget (I'll probably create it in Flash, but not sure about it yet) that will automatically (or is 'dynamically' the word?) create content depending on the page name (which should be band's / song's name).

Although I'm related to the author I had the chance to read this and it opened up a very cool world of possibilities.
It seems like there are a lot of databases with great potential waiting to be incorporated with Drupal's relevant modules.

Hi,

I was wondering if it is possible to make the information contained in one content type available in another content type?

Let me explain. My website has a number of section including a news section and a knowledge section. Everything bit of news, reports ect goes in the news section. The knowledge centre only contains reports.

Is there any module which shows weather details of today, tonight ,tomorrow,hourly,weekend,monthly,5days,10days...

Hi everyone,

I'm wondering what would be the best module or solution for this scenario, I am using Drupal 7 FYI.

Basically I want to have a section for a websites "sales" staff to input job orders (not e-commerce orders) that they receive from their clients. This request is then logged in the website, which allows for a site "supplier/dispatcher" if you will, to read the order request, and then add comments or status updates as to the progress of the orders completion, and once the order has been fulfilled, then it would be marked as closed.

Drupal 7.0 worked for new sites and had problems on upgrades from Drupal 6. I tried Drupal 7.4 and found it upgrades from Drupal 6 with only a few errors I easily bypassed. What are the critical points for upgrading your sites to Drupal 7?
