Hi,

domain.com will have only one static page to select to go to a.domain.com or b.domain.com.
I do not want to install full drupal for only one static page.

My thought is to install the sub sites, and in the domain.com forwarded to xxx.html file ... any better way ?

Thanks ..

I'm thinking about using Drupal for a take away (delivery) ecommerce site and was wondering if there is a module that could calculate the distance between the postcode added by the user and the shop locations (a few) and if its within a certain radius go ahead and allow the user to place the order. Is there such module available for drupal? if not, is there a similar module(s) that could be adapted to it?

Thanks

My use case is fundraising through sponsorship for an event/activity. I've searched through the profiles and distributions without success. The closest I have found which would be ideal is Systemseed's Concern for concern.net Featured showcase, http://drupal.org/node/1708372. Although there is some detail as how it is configured, it would have been easier to drush the profile.
