Before you start

A friend of mine is interested in posting the articles he publishes in a news paper. I am intending to make a website for him to enable him post his articles to this website. What is the best theme for this. He also likes to show the url of the newspaper page where his article appeared as a pdf file. Thanks for any help or hints.

I'm interested in using Drupal for this project:

A cycling club website.

Site users will be club members.

Members can enter one off races, or leagues which consist of many races.

A race has a title, date / time, location, etc etc.
A race also has a number of participants.

The top 10 might get points; 10 for the winner, 9 for second, 8 for third and so on.

After a race site administrators will want to upload results. Results come in the form of a csv file.

I will then need to find a mechanism to display the resulting league table.

I maintain a large static site built by someone else. The bulk of the site consists of some hundreds of pages each containing some structured text - 2-3 paragraphs, plus some regular information, and then a small gallery of photos. Looking at the storage footprint the photos dominate the space taken on the server. The site was expected to be unchanging, but in fact we are always adding or changing it, as better information arrives or better photos get taken. This old site is here: www.earlychristianireland.org.

I am a designer / developer. My experience is in HTML/CSS/JS, some knowledge in PHP, mySQL, and Wordpress one-click-install (lol).

It'd be helpful if you could help me decide if Drupal is right for my current project?

Ideally, I have two places/needs for a CMS.

Hi, when there are so many modules out there, how do you search for the exact one that you want? I heard of http://drupalmodules.com/ Any others?

Hello there,

I am looking for advice.
