Before you start

We are strongly considering drupal to power a section of our site that would function like a community weblog (it would be called the opinion/editorial section). Ideally users would be able to submit stories that would have to be approved by admin before going live. We would also like to be able to approve comments prior to going live or at least not allow comments. But this is not absolutely required.

Also, since we already have message board/forum software that we are comfortable with, is it possible to disable or not install the forum function?

Hi there,
I'm looking for a Blog-Software that allows me (out-of-the-box or by modules) to submit entrys including Pictures via MMS/eMail.
Looking around a bit I found Mailhandler (and maybe poormanscron) that could be able to fullfill my wishes, but I'm not sure about. Maybe someone here can give advice?

Thanks in advance,
Mudhenn

I'm looking for the Japanese Document of Drupal for planners and contents editors, not for engineers.

Let me know if you know good Japanese resource.

Thanks,

Hi,

I am very interested in using Drupal for a smaller school district as a way to allow students and teachers a quick method to post content. My questions is, can I set up drupal so that each user can send out a link to our drupal site and see thier content. I guess this would be similar to them have thier own page or content page. If so, how can you do this.

Thanks
Darren

In my enterprise, I am looking at a solution that will allow us to create multiple portals with independent administrators (and common pool of users). The organization portal will be designed to allow postings from these independent portals. Would this be easy?

Could I, for instance have the stories, blogs,and forums be public but have the books be private? I was hoping I could create roles and then use permissions to block access to certain types of content, but when I looked, I saw you could block access to "access content", but there is no control over individual types of content. Any ideas?
