Drupal is up and running but how do I ...?

Rich Text Editing for blogs and comments

Hello,

I just installed drupal yesterday on my server. Everything seems ok but I don't understand the very very basic text editing for creating content. I would prefer to have bbedit codes rather than html or even wiki syntax.

I have installed the bbedit module but it doesnt' seem to work on my site. When I hit the button for say bold [b]bold text[/b] it is outputted as I typed it rather than bolding the text. Any thoughts?

Uploads/Downloads: Need Advice

Hi, all:

I'm building a Drupal instance to be used as a knowledgebase/documentation server. I am using the upload module, along with a module called fileshare.

What is the best way to be able to link in the navagation system to a repository of all uploaded files? Is this done by node type "fileshare" (i.e. make a menu item that calls all nodes of that type to be displayed)? Is this done by taxonomy? Is there some easier, obvious way that I am just not grasping right now?

events handling

Hi all, i'm new to drupal and i'm trying to use it. I must say it's not so easy, i haven't yet figured out how it really works, so i'm having some trouble in my work. I tell you what i have to do, hoping in some useful suggestion.

I have to build up a site where storing information about matches (don't know what kind, but some sort of sport). Every match should be an event in a calendar, should have a description of the event, and after it has been played it should contain a review, a pdf file attached with results, fotos, videos and so on.

Adding a new page - do I use the create content > add page for a page with modules?

Hello,
I have a newbie question that I've looked through the forum and documentation, but am not exactly sure how to go about doing this.

Drupal forums on my site have no "reply" function ?

I have a wierd situation on the site I am working on (www.popularparanoia.com).

The standard drupal built in forums are active, containers and forums have been created, there are even a couple of posts there.

The problem is, there is NO reply button or command for the forums!

One can post a new post but it is impossible to respond to an existing post!

I am running drupal 4.7.2.

Has anyone heard of this error before ?

It goes to slow

Hi there!

I wonder what it is that makes my site so damn slow. It is a site that has a lot of menus (4) on the first page, and each menu contains 7 links. Under these links there could be one or two more steps of links. I can understand if this make the site slower but not as slow as up to 4 minutes to load a page. I have almost no pictures so it's mostly text.
