Before you start

I am going to drupalize/joomalize/mambolize or whatever this site: http://www.aksjeskolen.no (this is the unfinished website, and it is exactly how I want the design to appear).

This is all I need from the CMS

Publishers need functionality to
1. log in
2. view and edit articles
3. post new articles

(articles will be displayes both on the front page, with an thumbnail, title and a short description)

End users will (of course) edit content on the live site.

My question is about the admins, for both first-time setup and ongoing maintenance.

Is it better for the admins to
(a) directly edit/create/manage site content on the live site, or
(b) work with an off-line copy of the content?

Is (b) feasible at all, or too difficult? Any particular reasons?

Does Drupal have features to create stuff on the live site, but not publish it to the world (until ready)?

Is it possible to have a multi-user blog from one codebase, and allow each user to style their blog using their own template, etc?

Hi,

After a long CMS evaluation odyssey, Drupal looks like a congenial candidate for me. Only the apparently missing multilingual *content* feature makes me still hesitate. I read about the i18n module but didn't understand if it already works with the final Drupal 4.7. And I saw many discussions going into detail and postponing a nice and patch-free solution to Drupal 5.0.

Hi, I am interested in using Drupal, I will explain next what I want to do. I searched the forum, but I didn't find a topic that matches my question, sorry.

The users will acess a home page:

www.site.com.br

Each user will register first(i alrready have a database with user logins and passwords that I want to use). Then, each user can login and edit a personal website. Each website will be on a different location, like this, for users "guilherme" and "pedro":

I recently downloaded KASL Webhost, for our non-profit organization. We want to offer our members free webhosting on our domain complete with a built in WYSIWYG editor and access to their account to edit their site whenever they want.

Will Drupal do this?

Thank you,
Geoserv.
