I'm using Drupal on a test site so that I can get my head wrapped around all of its capabilities. One of the things I'm having trouble with is content structure as it relates to site hierarchy and a "positive user experience."
I am going to build a site with a "how to" theme (specifically, "how to set up a a cost-effective small business technology infrastructure").
This is a much broader topic than it would appear at first glance. So I have structured the subject matter so that it is almost a book. Different chapters focus on different elements, and each one builds upon the last.
When a visitor arrives on the site, I want the home page to give the outline of the site, with a recommendation to start in "category 1."
vocabulary 1, Term 1 is the opening chapter, followed in turn by
Cat 1, term 2,
and so on
vocabulary 2, term 1 is the second chapter... etc ad nauseum.
The top leven menu will be the vocabulary/category titles, and expand to show the terms they contain.
My questions are:
Can someone recommend a good referenct that will help me get through this (and get my head around it)? I've searched Drupal.org, but I must not be asking the right question.
If you've seen this before, can you recommend some appropriate modules that will help make my this project easier?
If anyone has a similar site, I would love to browse it and get a feel for the real thing in operation.
