Before you start

I am new to CMSes, and I'm not sure what the terminology I should be using is, but in other CMSes the term for the type of form I want is a "tracker."

What I want to do it make many pages linked to an online DB that users can enter data into, save, update, share if they choose, etc, for example in the following format:

Label check_box select_box text_box
Label check_box select_box text_box
Label check_box select_box text_box
...dozens more lines...

Hello,

I try to make a new website for my team http://www.team-visualize.net with drupal.
For now I'm looking for a module that can support the following things:

This is possible with organic groups, but now I need this:
When someone creates a team they need to get select if the team is for Xbox/pc/PS3 and what game they play. Also they need to enter the name of the team.

I'm looking to create a website that, at its core, will generate a page with details about a particular product from a standard template and a database containing the product details. Currently I have the database in Excel format (with about 800 products, so creating individual pages/records for each one would be excessively time-consuming), but I'm thinking that it shouldn't be *too* troublesome to convert it to an SQL database, which the website can then access. Am I right in thinking Drupal should be ideal for this project?

Hey Everyone,

I have successfully put up a few Drupal web sites in the past couple years, but this time, I have new requirements.

I'm looking to make a social networking type site that will rely very heavily on mobile users, even for things such as setting up new accounts, uploading pictures (from camera phones) and interacting with other users. Ideally, you wouldn't even need a computer to use the site.

Here is my problem: I need multiple sites that share the same Drupal forums and the same user base. I originally went down the road of a single instance of Drupal and was going to do custom tpl.php files based on which site I was building for, but custom tpl.php doesn't work for pages, which concerns me, and I cannot do custom CSS per each vertical this way.

for clarity, it would be:

Please excuse my ignorance. I’m a novice who wants to get started (again). Several years ago, I could easily navigate my way around FrontPage and knew a decent amount of HTML coding. But as time went by, I needed web design less and less. Today, I do update our company’s current Joomla-based site but that’s about it. Until now.

We need to redesign our site, add in some new features and really take advantage of web 2.0. (Right now, it’s mostly just a brochure-style site.) I want to learn a CMS (with the possibility of going on to design CMS-based sites for other nonprofits in my area which they would then update content on their own). In addition to the normal stuff, below is a list of things I’d really like to incorporate into our new site:
• “Connect with Facebook” / Sign Up with Facebook
• Post video via YouTube, Facebook, Vimeo, etc. directly on the site
• Ability to post Twitter tweets, Facebook status updates/postings, etc. automatically
• Unique registrations/log-ins which allow various users to see specific content and gain access to restricted areas (for example, members of the board of directors could access board minutes and other files but the area would not be accessible to anyone else)
• RSS reader/display (ability to pull in the first paragraph or so from our weekly blog onto our homepage with a link to the rest of the blog)
