Before you start

Hi folks,

I am a PHP/mySQL developer and I have a project that I am looking to marry to a third party cms. So I am wondering if Drupal can handle PHP scripting within the content of pages or do I need to plan on using iframes as content and build my apps as stand alone pages?

Thanks for any advice!

I am about to embarq on site and would like some comments on whether Drupal is appropriate.

The site is essentially a database of categorized images, each of which are grouped. For example, a group might be Labrador with 6 (a smallish) number of associated images. Attributes would be "dog", "black", "4 feet", "110lb" etc.

Navigation through the site is fairly simple.
- first page select category or enter search criteria (e.g. all with 4 feet weighing from 100 to 230lbs)
- next page show all results. Each category has a main image which is shown.
- if there are more than X then show Pager but as "1 2 3 ... ' for however many pages
- javascript so that hovering over each image shows the attributes of that group
- clicking on image brings up that image much larger and also all related images in that group as thumbnails. Clicking on those will make that one the larger image on this page.
- option to return to list or change search.

That's about it. Previously I've done this with just php/mysql but having used Drupal, it takes a ton of work around surrounding admin and tuning. Images will be probably pre-sized, formatted and uploaded so I'm OK with that side of it as well.

I'm looking to start a new site that will be a wiki. I've used Drupal for a number of sites now, as a blog or general CMS, but not as a wiki. I'm dissatisfied with Media-Wiki, both as a user and as a developer which is why I'm considering Drupal. I want to know if there are any major Wikis being powered by Drupal, and if there are any good tips when I set it up.

I have installed both TinyMCE and IMCE. IMCE works if I put a link under the text-area but I do not get any browserbutton in my TinyMCE. I have tried to search for a solution here but I haven't found it.

I do have $closure in my theme.

Hello,

I have just installed Drupal5 and the terminology is blowing my mind.

Im considering using Drupal as the CMS for my site

What modules will enable me to do the diary an example of which is here http://www.siliconhell.com/madcat/diaryindex.htm

Page 1 of the diary leads to page 2 and so on........

Is there an easy way to embed the pictures etc...

Im actually going to move some of the content to another domain which is currently where I have Drupal5 installed.

I was forced to use Drupal without the CREATE TEMPORARY TABLES MySQL-right and the troubles start with the installation. I have written a hacky patch for 5.2 which resolves this issue for me (searching also works). Maybe someone is interested. If not, please forgive me wasting your time.
