General discussion

Hi,

I am intending to create e-portfolio system where students can upload their e-portfolio such as resume, past projects, images etc. I am new to drupal and I am finding it difficult to find a good starting point.
Could anyone advise me on what modules I should be looking at or any relevant tutorials?

Many thanks,

Nena

I just started as a web developer for a theatre organization. They had a design firm build them a site and a custom CMS. This situation would be fine if it were 2004, but this thing has just become so unweildy!

They constantly have to update and move content. So - they have a season of shows - and every time a show concludes they have to archive the large amount of content associated with that show and move everything up. The archived show content goes into a "Past Shows" section.

They have a main top nav with two levels of children and a left nav with three levels of children. Right now, everything is done in this propietary CMS. Since it's difficult to code within the CMS, they save a copy of every pages HTML on the server. Whenever they want to edit, they change the HTML file and then paste into the CMS. This company also hosts the site.

Whenever they archive/move files/folders, the CMS changes the link - making tracking difficult indeed. All in all, it seems like just to make simple changes takes 3x longer than it should.

I've worked with custom WordPress themes and I'm assuming for a more complex website Drupal may be an option.

There are several initiatives currently being discussed in the Code Review Group aimed at reducing the backlog in the full project application queue (currently approaching seven weeks). These initiatives are briefly summarized at http://groups.drupal.org/node/154509. This is well known among the small group that regularly participates in the code review group. I'm very much interested in hearing from the community at large on this issue.

I'm looking for a module that will allow me to create a blog post unpublished then allow specific users to access that post and edit it and see revisions still in it's unpublished form.

Any ideas?
Thank you
Aaron

Hacker group LulzSec hacks Black & Berg Cybersecurity Consulting, LLC website and the story makes it to Reddit's front page. It's embarrassing. What went wrong?

Its 2011. Each theme should come with its mobile equivalent.
That is to say,
each theme should detect if the client request is from a mobile device
then display the content suitable for mobile viewing

It would be nice if D 6 and D 5 themes backport this feature as combined usage of these two will continue be much much higher than D 7 and D 8 for years.

Note : How we/you define what is mobile device ?
