SEOecom, Melbourne, Australia – We are a company that specializes in Drupal and provides free online courses on how to get started with Drupal. We have just completed a massive overhaul of our Drupal site. Most people are amazed to know that the entire site runs with just one theme and contributed modules from this community. I will list all of them and the theme elements to hopefully inspire others starting up in Drupal, to create complex sites – looking any way you want by keeping things simple.
The theme – The theme for our site has 15 regions – 2 pre content regions, a header, a pre content, post content, three right side bars, two overlapping sidebars, three bottom blocks, footer and of course content block. Using these regions as blocks, we are able to create different look and feel based on URLs or content types (CCK). This is somewhat similar to playing with Lego blocks in that with these blocks and a bit of imagination, you can create any sort of look and feel.
Modules: Here is a list of Drupal contributed modules used at our site. I will also share experiences about other modules later when we have had a chance to use them:
DDEV is the official local development tool of Drupal. And like Drupal, DDEV depends on the support of the open source community.
