Hello,
I am wanting to create a social networking website with features similar to Facebook. One of my major things I want is STATUSES updates like facebook has, that is a MAJOR thing I need. My question is this, with Drupal moving away from v6 to v7, and it seams like all the modules I would need to do what I want are for v6 would it be a good idea to go with v6, qas I am new to Drupal?

Any Social Networkings sites created with v7, please show links?

Your suggestions are needed and wanted!

Hello everybody, i have an old web hosting with php version 4.3.1 and i wonder which version of drupal is best for this hosting. Also can i connect my drupal website with my IPB forum ? :) Thanks in advance

Hi
Am running a small startup site at www.aplacetorent.ie and am thinking of starting a blog separate from the site but pointing to it.

I would like a simple blog layout something like http://blogs.myhome.ie/. Need to know what this involves.

Thank you
Dee

I've built some small sites in Drupal to get comfortable with it. I'm looking at a project that could have close to 700 nodes for pages, several hundred article nodes and several hundred event nodes. How can I make these easy to navigate / manage for users that will need to edit content?

Hi all,

My first post on here for 3 to 4 years! I was previously working on a drupal site for a company but they no longer trade, however I'm now involved in another project and I suspect that drupal would be a superb choice.

Here's the simple scenario followed by the question . . .

The company have a main web site. They will have other people who represent them, in the same business sector, but each of those people need an entirely seperate web site under their own unique domain name. These are not to be subdomains. These are not to be in a sub folder of the main site on the host (as with some 'multi' site hosting packages)

After the initial set up of each site (possibly around 200+ seperate sites), no content will be shared, no users will be shared and no database needs to be shared as we have access to unlimited SQL's.

I've considered exploring 'multisite' to streamline admin and update work, but I'm not inclined in this direction. I think the sites should be entirely seperate as the company are absolutely adamant that if one site goes down the rest should stay up! With multisite and one database, I can't help feeling that this would be a bit risky i.e. one crashed db or hacked site = all sites down etc.
