Post installation

I'm trying to duplicate a static site in Drupal. I've started adding static pages and linking to them using the menu module. One thing I'd like to change is to remove the "Submitted by..." and the timestamp info from the top of each page. Can this be done?

Thanks,

Ryan

After upgrading to version 4.4 I realise that page header seems to be gone.

Or is that due to some misconfiguration on my part?

Hi there,

I've just installed Drupal and am trying to wrap my head around its methodologies. I'm trying to duplicate the scructure of a static site and want to create static pages and sub pages. I want to use the menu module, I believe, to create a hierarchical menu block instead of using the links across the top of the page.

My question is should I be creating stories with my page content in them or static pages? What's the difference? Assuming I create a static page in Drupal, can I give it a parent? Does Drupal keep track of hierarchies like that?

Is there a way to change what nodes users are redirected to after login. Instead of each user going to "/user/", can it be could configured for each user?

I've setup the Article module but I don't know how to add content to the articles section. All that it shows is the xml button. I've looked around the Drupal site but I can't find any "how-to's" for it.

Is it possible to upgrade drupal by copying the new code, over the old installation and by replacing the basic configuration options such as database.inc etc.

This assumes that the database schema hasn't changed.

I upgraded 4.2.0 version to 4.3.0 but in trying to apply a patch it appears the blog.module is different. I want to know if I can the upgrade over the old one, and keep working as usual.
