Before you start

Im interested in making a Yellow Pages type website with Drupal and would like to know if it can be done easily.

This phone book will all be paid advertisements so I dont just want anyone to be able to sign up and create a listing in my website. I think I as the admin will enter all details about a business, upload a few photos and then submit them to the proper category.

Hi there,

I am just wonder if Drupal is able to categorize users so that each user is only allowed to post to a specific location e.g.

http://www.example.com/username/

and that users blogs will only show up there? Are there any mods for this? Or any software that anyone is aware will do this? I know wordpress is unable todo it and Drupal doesn't seem to say anywhere how the Users are handled.

Thank you very much for any help.

Hi,

This is my first post here.. hello to all!

Before i spend some hours trying to install and configure another cms to find i can't do all the mods i might require.
Tryed using osdate and got that installed n all but if the support isin't there, i can't configure the system by myself.

I have some simple requirements that involved extra options in the orentation selection that any user would select from.
Example: Usually a user would have the options to selects - i'm a male/female/couple looking for: male/female/couple

I am considering adding Drupal to a website I run.

My #1 need is to allow multiple, pre-approved editors to add content to the website. For example, if this was a car website, I might have an editor for a Ford section, and an editor for a Chevy section. I want the Ford editor to write content to Ford, but not to the Chevy section. Is this possible?

Second, I want to integrate a forum. Currently I use 2 different forums, one is phpBB and the other is SMF (simple machines forums). Can either of these two be integrated with Drupal? Does Drupal have it's own forum software?

hi there,

we're planning to use drupal for a kind of intranet-system with access for the public.

is it possible to have a blog with drupal and to define certain entries only viewable for members and not for the public and ohter entries for all?

thanks in advance,

Well, my group's project is an open-source, freeware game development project.

I normally would not post in here and instead dig up all the information we need but am too tired. Pardon me!

We've been looking at Xaraya, Joomla, and countless other CMSes.

These are the most important features we need:

- an inbuilt or supported Wiki like MediaWiki(we'd prefer MediaWiki)

- custom user permissions. Disable anonymous browsing. (Drupal has it.)

- Multiple groups for each user. (Drupal has it.)
