Before you start

Hi there,

My customer wants to have different login sections. The admin login section needs to be hidden from public, Why the member login section needs to be accessible to the public.

Is there a way to specify that the core login module only works for a particular member role in one section, why a different section would allow the admini to login in?

Thanks in advance,

Jason

Hi there,

right now we're already using Drupal for our front page and newsletter management. But with the next site overhaul we may want to "expand" the use of drupal, by bridging it with our phpBB3 based forums. First tests with the "phpbbforum" module where quite promising.

However, at the moment we have a sub-domain based sectioning. example.com for the frontpage, forums.example.com for the forums, wiki.example.com for the wiki and so on...

In the next site revision, we want to introduce some listing for mods and maps, called "vault". So, since the vault would be something more special, we want to put it also into its own sub domain. Nothing special, with Drupals multi-site setup or using the "domain" module. But there is a problem, which really annoys me. The user management.

Due to the bridging, Drupal will get a special role about the user management. The users will only be able to edit their "Major" account data with the Drupal interface. But with a normal multi-site setup and a shared user-table, there would be many ways to get access to the account settings, or?

I mean, users could access/edit their informations on:

* example.com/user
* vault.example.com/user

Hi there,

A customer of ours wants us to build a site using the drupal framework, so that they can expand on it later on using this rich architecture.

I'm looking at this site and would like to embark in a similar product but for a much different industry. It still involves user features like ajax blocks doing updates from other urls (do a search and go through the finding process to find an apartment. When you bring up the list, an ajax box of items comes up.)

Can I use Drupal As a Catalog Manager? I'm New.... obviously Thank You

Dear everyone,
I've got a couple of different sites -some do, some don't share content.

So far i've got "hand-coded" sites (using differnt mysql-dbs) which i manage using some formulars.

Now i'm planning to switch to a CMS.

i used to work with typo3 quite a while ago (on a customer's site) - but i didn't like it too much.

Therefore i'm thinking of switching to drupal this time (my other alternative might me joomla) - but before i do, i'd like to know if it figures for the following enviroment:

- 5 different sites (with diefferent domains, etc.)
- some texts might apear on each, some on one or two and some only on one site (e.g. "about us" on each)
- though the content on these pages is the same (e.g. "about us"), the styling should differ (using the CSS of the current site)
- 3 of these sites will have product presentations
- some of theses products appear on more than one site.

A short example (not a real one ) to make things clearer:

www.my-book-domain.com

www.my-cd-domain.com

www.my-products-domain.com

on the book-domain there would be a presentation of books
on the cd-domain there would be a presentation of cd

both sites should look completely different
