Before you start

Hi Forum,

I'm going to be building a large video site for an arts organisation which allows users to sign up for an account and stream live or archive videos.
In the past I've built my own CMS using php and mysql as this site is going to require a little more on the cms side I'm looking for something a little more robust than my php skills can handle so am looking to try and work out which cms will work best, at the moment I'm looking at drupal or plone.

I have no experience of using drupal so perhaps you can tell me if it is suitable for my needs. A few questions.......

The main thing the cms will need to handle is new user accounts, does drupal provide modules which will create a set of new pages for each user (blog, about, photos etc)?

The video streaming and archiving will all be handled by Flash, FMS, FFMpeg and a little php is there a way to embed various flash apps into each users page automatically?

How does Drupal output data, the design of the site will be css driven so I dont want lots of pesky tables appearing from the cms?

How flexible is Drupal in terms of intergrating it with other apps? As I said a lot of the site will be based on fms, if, for example, I'm saving videos through fms into a database can I generate content in Drupal from that database?

Hi! I am completely new to CMSs, so please bear with me :)

I am trying to find a way of managing an appealing website, which should contain the following things:

1. A news page, like a blog
2. A directory listing for downloads, listing all files and directories given a root dir
3. A documentation page, since we already have some doxygen files
4. Mailing list management
5. Source code management

Some of them are already on the OK list, like 4 and 5. But for the others I have no idea.

Any hint is highly appreciated! Thanks!

Hi -

Su tankları, sıvı depolama kaplarıdır, bu tanklar genellikle, insan tüketimi için suyu depoluyor.

Su deposu için ihtiyaç, uygarlaştırılan adam olarak öyle yaşlıdır. Su tankları, içme suyu

nun depolaması için içilebilir sağlar, sulama tarımı, bastırma, tarımsal çiftçilik ve çiftlik hayvanları, kimyasal imalat, yiyecek hazırlığı ve birçok diğer uygulamayı ateş ler...

Çeşitli malzemeler, su tanklarını inşa etmek için kullanılır: Plastik, polietilen, polypropylene, fiberglas, beton, çelik (Kaynak yapılan, veya koştu, karbon, veya paslanmaz). Toprak gölcükler, tasarladı, su depolaması, hem de çoğunlukla öyle tanklara başvurulan olduğu için.

I am considering building a website for songwriters. It needs to have a few general pages (accessible to the public), and then, behind the login area, a few different features. The main feature is a page for each songwriter, where they can upload their songs (mp3, lyric, lead sheet etc.). There would also perhaps be a general song area (searching, etc.), and maybe a phpBB3 forum.

I am considering moving my site to Drupal. After looking through the information I could find, though, I still have a few questions. I think most of them are fairly simple.

I currently use WordPress (2.5.1) for part of my site. I found this method of importing my WP posts to Drupal:
