Hi everybody,
I'd like to ask advice about the creation of a web site. I have been using Drupal from about one year, and now I have to develop a web site for a research institute. The site needs to have a "public" area of contents to be showed to everybody, then there should be a private area for members that has to be built like a social network/community that can be organized around projects.
People need to share documents inside a project, this meant to be a collaborative tool.
I'm looking into starting my own open source project with a friend and I would like some way to control all of the following:
Blog
Forum
Project timeline
Wiki
And also have seperate pages for
Developers
Visitors
Does this seem like the sort of thing that is suited for drupal? I read the drupal cookbook but couldn't really see if any of this is appropriate to drupal
I'm a newbie and have been asked to be the administrator of our Drupal site. It used to be handled by another organization but we're taking on many of the tasks that these computer-savvy people once did.
I am able to upload information to the site but really need to learn more.
Is it possible to download it to my home computer and go through the tutorials there? I don't have a website and wasn't sure if that was a prerequisite.
I'm in the process of preparing an infrastructure to host a potentially high traffic new website and I was wondering how to foresee the infrastructure I need in terms of (at least) server(s), capacity and bandwidth for Drupal ?
My website will mainly do database work (as opposed to mainly do audio/videos/images) and probably face some huge traffic peaks (ad campaigns).
